Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO
Switching The Hand-Held On And Off
30 Psion Teklogix NEO Hand-Held Computer User Manual
• Cigarette Lighter Adaptor (Model No. PX3056) when used with a USB/DC Power
Adaptor (Model No. PX3054).
• Desktop Docking Station (Model # PX3001)—operates as both a charger and a docking
station. Operating as a charger, both the battery installed in the hand-held and a spare
battery can be charged simultaneously.
• Quad Docking Station—(Model # PX3004) can charge the battery of up to four NEOs
inserted in the docking station.
The charge time required to make the NEO ready for use varies depending on the type of
docking station used. A NEO inserted in docking station requires 3 hours to charge the
battery to 75% capacity. NEO is equipped with an intelligent charging system that protects
the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at
maximum capacity.
3.3 Switching The Hand-Held On And Off
• To switch the unit on, press and hold down the [ENTER] key for at least one second.
• When the LED flashes green, release the [ENTER] key.
The startup screen is displayed.
Switching Off NEO (Suspend)
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO in suspend mode. Additional
peripherals and other power consumption features will alter the specified charge
time.
Note: Refer to “Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time” on page 40 for addi-
tional information about the battery.
Important: To avoid damaging the battery, the charge process will not begin until the
battery temperature is between 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
Note: If NEO is in suspend state, pressing [ENTER] ‘wakes’ the unit from this state. The
screen in which you were working before the computer entered suspend state is
displayed.
Important: Keep in mind that turning off NEO does not result in a complete reboot;
rather, the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the unit is
turned on from suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.
