Setting Up the Handheld
The Grayhill Handheld is shipped with its handle already attached and a rechargeable Lithium
Ion battery already installed. However, some initial setup is required.
Charge the Handheld
Before using your Handheld for the first time, charge its battery for about 3 hours, connecting
the Handheld to an electrical outlet using the Grayhill Charging cable.
A completely charged battery will power the Handheld for eight (8) hours of maximum power
consumption depending on the type of battery ordered with the system.
Charging the Battery Using the AC Adapter
Attach the AC adapter to the Handheld’s external connector, then connect the power cord to an
electrical outlet.
!WARNING: Use only a Grayhill-approved AC adapter with the Handheld. Use of another
AC adapter may cause a fire or an explosion. Always connect the AC adapter first to the
Handheld. Use the AC adapter with a properly grounded supply to avoid electrical shock.
Before plugging the power cord into the wall socket, make sure its voltage and frequency
match that of the AC adapter. If using an extension cord with the provided AC adapter, make
sure the total current rating of the product does not exceed the current rating of the
extension cord.

LEDs
When the Handheld is fully charged, the green Power LED glows steadily Green. When the unit
is unplugged from AC or the Battery is not charging the LED is off. While the battery is
charging the LED is Amber. If there is a low battery the LED will flash Red. If there is a fault
or no battery present the LED will be solid Red.
Turn On the Handheld
If your Handheld has been turned off turn it on by pressing the Power button, located on the
upper right-left side of the Handheld’s frame. The first time you power on your Handheld, it
will take about 45second.
Instant On/Off
After the initial power on, the Handheld instantly turns on when you press the Power button, and
instantly turns off when you press the Power button again. The Grayhill Handheld provides
these Instant On and Instant Off features to facilitate your work under harsh conditions.
Align the Handheld Touch Screen
The Handheld’s touch screen may initially require calibration to align the cursor on the touch
screen with the tip of your stylus. To calibrate your screen tap the center of each alignment
target with the tip of the stylus.
Resetting
By default, the Handheld’s Instant Off feature causes it to immediately power down to a “sleep”
mode where closed programs are still running, but the screen’s backlight is off. If no use is
planned for the Handheld for the near future and batteries need to be removed, you can
reconfigure the Instant Off feature to cause the Handheld to turn off completely instead of going
to sleep. You’ll use the Power control panel in Settings to reconfigure Instant Off (see page ).
Pressing Power on a Handheld with Instant Off configured to completely turn off the Handheld
causes a hard reset of the Handheld. When the Handheld is powered on again, all data saved to
flash memory will still be present.
Soft resets of the Handheld are accomplished by selecting Restart on the Handheld’s Start menu,
or by responding affirmatively to a request for a restart from an installer or other program.
To conduct a hard reset hold the power button down for 6-10 seconds. This will clear the
Handheld's ram and reload the OS from Flash.
