Power/Battery LED Status:
• Blue indicates the battery is 25% to 100% charged
• Blinking blue indicates the battery is charging
• Orange indicates that the battery is between 11% to 25%
• Blinking Orange indicates that the battery is below 10%
Precautions
 Always exercise care when operating and handling the DT380CR.
 Do NOT apply excessive pressure to the display screen.
 Avoid prolonged exposure of the display panel to any strong heat source. Wherever possible, the
DT380CR 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, immediately power off the
DT380CR and disconnect all power sources. Report the problem to your device provider immediately.
 Never attempt to disassemble the DT380CR, as this will void the warranty.
THE DT380CR
Basic Features
The DT380CR wireless tablet integrates a bright and multi-touch display, one USB port, and embedded
networking elements such as wireless LAN and Bluetooth. The DT380CR is complemented by a suite of
accessories, including battery gang charger, and charging cradles, for a comprehensive user experience.
A DT380CR typically integrates an 802.11ac wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter that may connect to other
wireless devices or access points. If your DT380CR does not come with such a network adapter, please
consult your device provider to establish the desired network connectivity.

DT380CR
OPERATION
Powering ON and OFF
To activate the DT380CR, push and quickly release the Power Button. The display will come on in a few
seconds. To put the DT380CR in Standby mode, push and quickly release the Power Button. To turn the
DT380CR off for extended storage, power off safely using any software function that “shuts down computer”
provided in the software operating system.
NOTE:
The battery pack shipped with your tablet may be low in power—please use the AC-DC
adapter with the DT380CR when setting up for the first time to fully charge the battery pack.
NOTE:
When the battery pack is charging, the blue-colored Battery LED should blink slowly. If
plugging in the AC-DC adapter does not trigger this blinking activity and the LED stays dark,
the battery pack may have been drained substantially. Try unplugging/ replugging the AC-DC
adapter to the DT380CR a few times to activate the charging process.
NOTE:
To conserve power, use (push and quick release) the Power Button to put the tablet in
“Standby” mode while not in use. Pushing briefly on the same button will wake up the system
within seconds.
NOTE:
Avoid using the Power Button (“hold 4+ seconds” feature) to turn off the tablet—this form of
hardware shutdown is intended to be a means of recovery from lockups, and not as normal
operation.
ENGLISH 4

Start Up
If the power up (from Standby mode or otherwise) is successful, the appropriate interface will be displayed
after a launch sequence of several seconds. The wireless LAN connection may take 10-15 seconds to be
established.
Configuring the Mobile Tablet
The DT380CR may be configured using the utilities and methods dictated by the software operating system.
The DT380CR should be configurable for various properties such as user profiles, network features, and
several system elements.
Wireless Networking
Wireless LAN
The DT380CR is often delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible) 802.11ac WLAN adapter equipped
with a hidden custom antenna.
• Through the support of typical WLAN adapters, the DT380CR should be able to detect all 802.11 access
points in the vicinity for you to select the access point of your choice for connection.
• The SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the DT380CR and the access points have to
match. The SSID is case-sensitive and it is recommended that you enable WEP/WPA/WPA2 encryption (or
advanced alternatives) for secure access.
• When WEP/WPA/WPA2 is enabled, you may need to consult your network administrator or your
networking equipment literature to properly configure associated settings such as Authentication mode, etc.
• Refer to the access point operating manuals for setting up the 802.11 access points.

Bluetooth
The operation frequency of Bluetooth is from 2402 to 2480 MHz. Bluetooth configuration application is
enabled from the System Tray or from the Windows Mobility Center. Follow the instructions and options
provided within the application to configure and invoke Bluetooth connectivity with the corresponding
peripherals.
USING THE MOBILE TABLET
Peripherals Support
Through its USB port, the DT380CR supports a wide range of USB-based peripherals. These peripherals are
applicable for software installation, applications storage, data storage, and system software recovery and
updates.
Remote Management
Depending on software configuration, the DT380CR can be centrally managed for asset monitoring and for
software control. Please consult your device provider.
