PRECAUTIONS
• Always exercise care when operang and handling the DT382GL/ DT382GS
• Do not disassemble any poron of the DT382GL/ DT382GS, as this will void any
product warranty.
• Do not use any power adapter or charging cradle other than the one provided
with the tablet or acquired from the manufacturer or its partners.
• In the unlikely event that abnormal noise, strange odor, or smoke is present,
immediately power down the DT382GL/ DT382GS and disconnect all power
sources. Please report the problem to your device provider immediately.

OPERATION
Powering ON and OFF
To acvate DT382GL/ DT382GS, push and quickly release the Power Buon. The display
will come on in a few seconds. To put the DT382GL/ DT382GS in standby mode, push
and quickly release the Power Buon. To turn the DT382GL/ DT382GS 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 packs shipped with your tablet may be low in power - please use the
AC-DC adapter with the DT382GL/ DT382GS when seng up for the rst me to
fully charge the baery pack.
NOTE:
To conserve power, push and quick release the Power Buon to make the tablet
in standby mode while not in use. Pushing briey on the same bu on will wake
up the system.
NOTE:
When the baery pack is charging, the blue-colored Baery LED should blink
slowly. If plugging in the AC-DC adapter does not trigger this blinking acvity
and the LED stays dark, the baery pack(s) may have been drained substanally.
Unplug/ replug the AC-DC adapter to the DT382GL/ DT382GS a few mes to
acvate the charging process.
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.

UHF RFID Reader:
The oponal UHF RFID reader supports EPC Gen2V2 and ISO 18000-63 standard. To
develop an applicaon to use the UHF RFID reader, contact your device provider for a
UHF RFID reader API package
Data Capture Module Operation Guide
If your DT382GL/ DT382GS comes with an RFID Reader refer to the steps below to
congure the sengs.
For More Support
Users can download the Tablet Modules Basic Operaon Guides from the DT Research
website.
NOTE:
To ensure the system performance, turn on only the symbologies you are going to use.

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.
Wireless Networking
Wireless LAN
The DT382GL/ DT382GS is oen delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible)
802.11ac LAN adapter equipped with a hidden custom antenna.
• Through the support of typical WLAN adapters, the DT382GL/ DT382GS should be
able to detect all 802.11 access points in the vicinity for you to select the access
point of your choice for connecon.
• The SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the DT362G and the
access points have to match. The SSID is case-sensive and it is recommended
that you 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.
