iOTA 360 FAQ
Q: The battery does not charge. What should I do?
A: There are 3 main possible reasons for this problem: bad connection, improper
temperature condition, or damaged battery or adapter. As for bad connection, the user
should:
1. Check all connectors to ensure proper connectivity;
2. Unplug the supplied power adapter from the wall and verify that the outlet is
functioning;
3. Check all cable connections, plug the adapter back into the tablet, and then plug back
into the wall socket; In regards to improper temperature conditions, i.e. the tablet’s

temperature is below 0°C or higher than 35°C, the user should change the location and
charge the battery in an ambient temperature between 0°C to 35°C. If the battery or
adapter has been damaged, contact an authorised reseller to replace the battery or
power adapter.
My battery drains quickly, even when the tablet is in Standby Mode. What is
wrong with it?
A: If the tablet is not in range of a network it can connect to, the tablet continues to send out
signals to locate a base station and drains the battery. So, temporarily turn on the tablet, or move
the tablet in range of a network it can connect to, or temporarily turn on the wireless connection
on your tablet. In addition, if the tablet keeps checking for Windows updates, even in Standby
mode, the battery will drain quickly too. It is normal in this case. The user can disable it by
selecting “Never check for update”. However, this is not recommended. The user should be
cautious before doing this.
Q: The Device does not turn on. What should I do?
A: It may be because the battery is completely discharged. Charge the tablet for at least 4 hours,
then press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds to turn on the tablet.
Or you can also try and hold the power button down for longer than 4 seconds, if it is in hard
shutdown mode.

You will need to ensure that this size of hard drive is sufficiently powered so that you can
connect the device. If the HD is of a large size, you will need a USB-Y cable and another USB
power input to give your HD the power that it will need (you can use a charger for this). Once
powered and plugged in, the HD should be recognised by your iOTA immediately and be ready
to use.

including text and buttons. To enable Narrator mode, touch Start > Settings > Ease of Access >
Narrator, then toggle the slider to turn on Narrator. In Narrator mode, every time you touch the
screen, you will hear a voice telling you the text or button you are touching.

Q: The screen of the iOTA 360 turns completely dark suddenly. What’s wrong
with it? What can I do?
A: Once the remaining capacity of the battery is less than 4%, the screen will turn black
automatically. It enters S4 mode(i.e. hibernating status). All running data will be saved on the
HDD. Under such circumstance, the user can recharge the battery with the supplied power
adapter for 5 minutes before rebooting it again.
