Precautions and advices about the charging
•
•
•
•
•

The device contains a rechargeable Li-ion baery (not removable) which can be charged by
performing the following process:
Connect the USB power adapter to a standard electrical outlet (220V / 50Hz) that you
are sure it is in a good condion.
Plug in the male connector USB-A of the cable into the adapter.
Plug in the male connector USB-C of the cable into port 4 (USB-C) of the device.
The device also has an auxiliary charge port (8) of the DC type 3.5mm. To charge using this port,
a DC 3.5mm 5V 2A charger is required (not included).
The device cannot be charged using both charging ports (4) and (8) at the same me. It could cause
serious damage.
The device does not need to reach 0% (completely discharged baery) to charge it. In fact, to
extend the life of your baery, it is recommended to charge it when the level is between 15% and
30% of its total capacity. By default, your ORBYS F21 NEO will alert you that it needs to be char-
ged when the baery is at 15%.
It is recommended not to drain the baery completely as this may cause the tablet not to turn on.
If your ORBYS F21 NEO is completely discharged, put it on charge and wait about 10 minutes to
start it (to acquire sufficient charge). The baery logo will appear on the screen when it is ready.
You can then turn your device on.
The charging me will depend on whether it is charged via a power adapter or via a USB port on
a PC.
The use of non-original power cables or adapters may cause serious damage to the device and
their use may result in the loss of warranty.
The baery is not removable and must not be touched under any circumstances. Any removal or
modificaon of the baery may result in the loss of the warranty.
The baery level is shown on the main screen of the device with this symbol.
You can monitor the baery usage, view the percentage and acvate the saving opons from the
menu:
It is not recommended to use the device while it is charging. This will cause the charging to be
much slower.
Use only original adapters with the following requirements:
INPUT: AC 100V~240V, 50/60 Hz <> OUTPUT: 5V - 2A
The use of other types of adapters could cause serious damage to the device
and pose risks to people.

Opening and closing applications
Navigation icons
Connecting the device to a computer

You can open any installed applicaon from the main screen or from the Applicaons screen.
Select the icon of the desired applicaon to proceed with its opening.
You can close an applicaon by pressing the Multask buon and dragging the window of the
applicaon to be closed upwards. You can also close all acve applicaons by using the Close All
opon.
There are several icons on the screen that allow us to perform different funcons and navigaon:
We can transfer data between our device and a connected computer using the supplied USB
cable.
There are several methods of transferring files between the PC and the device. You can set the
transfer method from the " Charging this device by USB " noficaon that will appear when you
connect the device to the PC. The main opons to choose from are:
To transfer files with computers running Mac OSX, you must install Android File
Transfer on your computer. Android File Transfer is compable with Mac OS X
10.7 or later and Android 3.0 or later. It can be obtained from the following URL:
hps://www.android.com/ filetransfer
Transfer files (MTP): The PC Operang System recognises the device as a Mulmedia Device.
PTP: Picture Transfer Protocol, this protocol is not used oen. The PC Operang System recog-
nises the device as if it were a camera. This mode is only recommended if the user wants to
transfer photos easily as it allows us to pass photos from the device to the computer without the
need to use any addional soware.
Charging: This method cancels the data transfer and thus improves the loading speed.
Return to the previous screen.
Return to the main screen.
This icon indicates that the split screen is acve.
Multasking: Opens a list of thumbnails of the applicaons that are
running. You can access an applicaon by clicking on it or close it by
clicking on the X.
Please note that when you exit an applicaon, for example from the Back buon, the
applicaon may be running in the background and consuming resources (RAM, Baery,
CPU), so it is recommended to close the applicaon completely if you are not going to
use it.

Closing split screen
Your device has a new feature that allows you to use several applicaons at the same me in split
screen.
You must choose which applicaons we want to use in the split screen. To do this, we proceed
with the following way:
Click on the buon to access the list of recently executed applicaons.
Keep pressed on the applicaon you want to run in the split screen. The opons will appear
and if the applicaon is compable with this funconality, "Split screen" will appear.
Once the first applicaon has been posioned on the split screen, we can choose the second
applicaon to be run in the remaining window.
While your device is working in Mulscreen, the Multask buon will change and a double
buon will appear to indicate that we are using the split screen.
We can return to work in a single full window by pressing twice the double buon unl only one
applicaon appears.
The first applicaon that we have selected will always be running on the selected
screen, however, when we press the double buon again the “applicaon carou-
sel” will be displayed again to open it on the split screen.
You can change the size of each window, just slide the bar that divides them
according to the desired size.
Some applicaons may not be adapted to this funconality. Please consult your
applicaon developer to check for correct compability.
