Federal Communication Commission Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protecon against harmful interference in
a residenal installaon. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instrucons, may cause harmful interference to radio communicaons.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a parcular
installaon. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television recepon, which can be determined by turning the equipment o
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separaon between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Cauon: Any changes or modicaons not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operaon is subject to the following two condions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operaon.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operang in
conjuncon with any other antenna or transmier.

PRECAUTIONS
• Always exercise care when operang and handling the DT361AM/ DT361AD.
• Do NOT apply excessive pressure to the display screen.
• We recommend using the Digital Pen (oponal) to keep the screen clean.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of the display panel to any strong heat source.
Wherever possible, the DT361AM/ DT361AD should face away from direct light
to reduce glare.
• If the AC-DC power adapter is used to recharge or power the tablet, do NOT
use any AC-DC adapter other than the one provided or acquired from the
manufacturer or its partners.
• In the unlikely event that smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present, im-
mediately power o the DT361AM/ DT361AD and disconnect all power sources.
Report the problem to your device provider immediately.
• Never aempt to disassemble the DT361AM/ DT361AD, as this will void the
warranty.
BASIC FEATURES
The DT361AM/ DT361AD rugged tablet integrates a dual mode switchable NVIS or
high-brightness touchscreen, USB ports, and embedded networking elements such
as wireless LAN and Bluetooth.
A DT361AM/ DT361AD typically integrates an 802.11ac wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter
that may connect to other wireless devices or access points. If your DT361AM/
DT361AD does not come with such a network adapter, please consult your device
provider to establish the desired network connecvity.
NOTE:
To obtain protecon consistent with any IP rang for the device, the I/O (audio,
power, USB, card reader, etc.) port doors must be closed. If the IP protecon is
compromised by mishandling or misuse, such as by leaving port doors open or
improperly closed, any resulng product damage will not be covered under any
DT Research warranty.

Start Up
If the power up (from Standby mode or otherwise) is successful, the appropriate
interface will be displayed aer a launch sequence of several seconds. The wireless
LAN connecon may take 10-15 seconds to be established.
Configuring the Rugged Tablet
The DT361AM/ DT361AD may be congured using the ulies and methods dictated
by the soware operang system. The DT361AM/ DT361AD should be congurable
for various properes such as user proles, network features, and several system
elements.
NVIS Mode and Screen Brightness Control (optional)
• When power buon is pressed to power on the unit, power LED will ash orange
once to indicate the unit is boong. Unit will boot into NVIS mode with zero nit
brightness by default and display will be dark. You can press the “Brightness Up”
and “Brightness Down” buons to set NVIS mode display to desired brightness
(up to 20 nits).
• To toggle between NVIS and high-brightness display mode, press the “NVIS/
Normal Mode Toggle” buon. When changed from NVIS mode to high-brightness
mode, display brightness percentage will be same as the brightness level set in
NVIS mode before toggling.
• Use brightness control buons to set desired brightness level. When changed
from normal display mode to NVIS mode, display brightness will be set to 0 nit
(display is dark) and you need to use brightness control buons to change display
to desired brightness.

OPERATION
Powering ON and OFF
To acvate the DT361AM/ DT361AD, push and quickly release the Power Buon. The
display will come on in a few seconds. To put the DT361AM/ DT361AD in Standby
mode, push and quickly release the Power Buon. To turn the DT361AM/ DT361AD o
for extended storage, power o safely using any soware funcon that “shuts down
computer” provided in the soware operang system.
NOTE:
The baery pack shipped with your tablet may be low in power—please use the
AC-DC adapter with the DT361AM/ DT361AD when seng up for the rst me
to fully charge the baery pack, or use the oponal baery charger kit.
NOTE:
To conserve power, use (push and quick release) the Power Buon to put the
tablet in “Standby” mode while not in use. Pushing briey on the same buon
will wake up the system within seconds.
NOTE:
Avoid using the Power Buon (“hold 4+ seconds” feature) to turn o the
tablet—this form of hardware shutdown is intended to be a means of recovery
from lockups, and not as normal operaon.

USING THE RUGGED TABLET
Peripherals Support
Through its USB 3.0 port, the DT361AM/ DT361AD supports a wide range of
USB-based peripherals. These peripherals are applicable for soware installaon,
applicaons storage, data storage, and system soware recovery and updates.
For More Support
Users can download the Tablet Modules Basic Operaon Guides from the DT Research
website.

Wireless Networking
Wireless LAN
The DT361AM/ DT361AD is oen delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible)
802.11ac WLAN adapter equipped with a hidden custom antenna.
• Through the support of typical WLAN adapters, the DT361AM/ DT361AD should
be able to detect all 802.11 access points in the vicinity to select the access point
of choice for connecon.
• The SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the DT361AM/
DT361AD and the access points have to match. The SSID is case-sensive and it is
recommended to enable WEP/WPA/WPA2 encrypon (or advanced alternaves)
for secure access.
• When WEP/WPA/WPA2 is enabled, you may need to consult your network
administrator or your networking equipment literature to properly congure
associated sengs such as Authencaon mode, etc.
• Refer to the access point operang manuals for seng up the 802.11 access
points.
Bluetooth
The Bluetooth conguraon applicaon is enabled from the System Tray or from the
Windows Mobility Center. Follow the instrucons and opons provided within the
applicaon to congure and invoke Bluetooth connecvity with the corresponding
peripherals.
