E-8  
Lithium-ion Battery Pack  
Each lithium-ion battery pack has its life. The life span heavily depends on how the  
battery pack is charged or stored which may cause deterioration of the battery pack  
to shorten the life span if it is handled improperly. Note the tips below to make the  
battery pack last long.  
— Be sure to charge the battery pack before using it if the battery pack is used for the  
rst time or if it has not been used for a long period of time.  
— If the battery pack is repeatedly charged, the life span becomes short. To avoid the  
repetition of charging the battery pack, be sure that the remaining capacity is low  
before you start charging.  
— Be sure to charge the battery pack in recommended temperature range. The  
temperature range is dependant on device you use to charge including battery  
chargers and Handheld Terminals. Refer to the respective user guides. Charging  
the battery pack in a temperature outside of the recommended range causes  
deterioration.  
— When used at low temperatures, the battery pack has a reduced capacity and will  
supply power for shorter time.  
The life span of the battery pack is also shortened.  
— Charging the battery pack while the battery pack itself is freeze including inside  
causes deterioration. Be sure to resume an ordinary room temperature on the  
battery pack and then leave it unattended for approximately one hour before  
charging.  
— After charging the battery pack, if the performance of the battery pack does not  
show any recovery, it is a sign of ending the life. Replace it with a new battery  
pack.  
— Avoid the battery pack with a full of the capacity to store for a long period of  
time. If you need to store it for a long period, be sure that the remaining capacity  
is 30 to 50 percent and to store in a moderate low temperature. This can reduce  
deterioration.  
— The battery pack gradually deteriorates over time. In particular, storing (or using)  
the fully charged battery pack at high temperatures tends to accelerate battery pack  
deterioration.

Loading and Removing the Battery Pack  
Your Handheld Terminal uses two types of battery: a battery pack and a memory  
backup battery.  
The battery pack is used to power normal operations and to store data, while the  
memory backup battery provides the power required to maintain memory contents  
when the battery pack power is unable to supply power for some reason.  
Use the battery pack (HA-K23XLBAT) as the main power source.  
The backup battery is installed inside of the Handheld Terminal.  
This guide uses the following terms to refer to the batteries.  
Battery Pack:  
Rechargeable battery pack (HA-K23XLBAT) for normal operations  
and data storage  
Backup Battery: Built-in battery for memory backup  
When the battery pack power goes low, immediately charge it or replace it with a  
charged battery pack.  
You can use the USB Cradle, the Ethernet Cradle, the USB and Charging Unit, the  
Dual Battery Charger or the Cradle-type Dual Battery Charger to charge a battery  
pack installed in the terminal. See the relevant sections in this guide for the respective  
options about how to use.  
Important!  
Always keep backup of all important data!  
The battery pack powers normal operation and also provides power required to  
maintain memory contents, while the backup battery provides backup power to  
maintain memory contents. Because of this, you should not remove the battery  
pack if the backup battery is dead. Removing the battery pack while the backup  
battery is dead causes data in the memory to be corrupted or lost. Note that  
once data is lost it cannot be recovered. Always keep backup of all important  
data.  
The charge of a battery pack when you purchase it may be depleted due to  
testing at the factory or natural discharge during shipment and storage. Be sure  
to charge the battery pack before you use it.  
The life of a battery pack is limited, and charging a battery pack causes it to  
gradually lose its ability to maintain the charge. If your battery pack seems to  
require charging very frequently, it probably means it is time to purchase a new one.  
If a battery pack is used past the end of its service life, it may swell up in size. In  
such a case, replace the battery pack with a new one.  
If the backup battery is fully charged, it will maintain the contents of the  
terminal’s memory (RAM) for approximately 10 minutes when the main battery  
pack is removed.  
It takes 4 days with the main battery pack installed in the terminal for the  
backup battery to be charged fully.  
E-19  
Loading  
1. Turn the terminal over, turn the left and right lock switches for the battery pack cover  
to the “FREE” position ( ), and then remove the battery pack cover ( ).  
2. Load a battery pack (HA-K23XLBAT). Take care that the battery pack is oriented  
correctly when you load it. In addition, load the battery pack while making sure that  
the end of the battery pack removal tape is protruding above the battery pack.  
3. Put back the battery pack cover in the compartment as instructed by the arrows,  
and  
in the illustration and then turn the lock switches to the “LOCK” position ( ).  
E-20  
Removing  
1. Make sure that the Handheld Terminal is turned off.  
If the power is on, press the power key to turn it off.  
2. Turn the terminal over, turn the left and right lock switches for the battery pack cover  
to the “FREE” position ( ), and then remove the battery pack cover ( ).  
3. Remove the battery pack by pulling up the removal tape as shown in the illustration.  
Important!  
When removing the battery pack, make sure you do not leave the Handheld  
Terminal without a battery pack for more than about 10 minutes. Doing so can  
cause data in the memory to be deleted.  
When removing the battery pack, be sure you carefully follow the proper  
procedure as explained in this guide.  
Never try to use other type of battery than the ones that are specied for this  
product.  
When removing the battery pack, pull the removal tape straight up and remove  
the battery pack. Removing with excessive force can damage the battery pack.  
Before starting to use the Handheld Terminal, ensure that the battery pack cover  
is properly closed. If not, the power is not turned on or is turned off abruptly  
while it is in use.  
When the hand belt is attached to the terminal, loosen the hand belt before  
opening or closing the battery pack cover. Pulling with excessive force could  
damage the hand belt or hand belt mount.  
E-21  
Attaching the Pen Cord  
The pen cord can be used to prevent the pen (stylus) from being lost.  
Since there are two strap holes where the pen cord can be attached on the back of the  
terminal near the top, use the hole that affords the greatest ease of use.  
Attach the pen cord according to the procedure described below.  
1. Pass the loop on the end of the pen cord (the end not attached to the pen) through the

Handling the NFC Reader/Writer (DT-X8-11E/11C/21E/21C)  
NFC is a type of RFID (Radio Frequency Identication) technology that allows the data  
in a device to be read simply by holding the device up to an NFC reader.  
It can be used to read RFID tags used for controlling goods as well as contactless IC  
cards used in applications such as employee identication.  
RFID Tags  
1. Hold the Handheld Terminal up so that the reader port is parallel with the RFID tag.  
Contactless IC Cards  
1. Hold the contactless IC card up so that it is parallel with the Handheld Terminal's  
reader port.  
Otherwise, you can hold the Handheld Terminal up to the card.  
E-32  
Important!  
Both contactless IC cards and RFID tags  
The NFC employs a low power radio wave which does not require regulatory  
station license.  
Frequency band used by the NFC is 13.56 MHz. Secure a sufcient space  
between DT-X8 and other reader/writer located in the vicinity. Make sure also  
that a radio station employs the same frequency band does not locate near by  
prior to using DT-X8.  
Read a contactless IC card or RFID tag by holding the Handheld Terminal so  
that the reader port is ush against the card or tag.  
When holding up the Handheld Terminal, take care not to strike the reader port  
against the card or tag.  
If the card or tag cannot be read, try moving the Handheld Terminal back and  
forth or side to side.  
Contactless IC cards  
Metal objects near a contactless IC card will interfere with successful reading.  
Take the card out of a wallet if the wallet is with metal object before applying it  
to the reader port.  
The card may not be read correctly if it is overlapped by one or more other  
cards.  
RFID tags  
Metal objects near an RFID tag will interfere with successful reading. Move the  
tag away from any nearby metal objects or use a tag designed for use with metal.  
The tag may not be read correctly if it is overlapped by one or more other tags.  
Set up the Handheld Terminal so that tags can be kept completely apart during  
reading.  
E-33  
Handling microSD Cards  
The Handheld Terminal supports microSD card.  
Install (or remove) a microSD card according to the procedure described below.  
Installing  
1. Open the cover of the microSD card slot ( ) and insert a microSD card all the  
way in until the top of the microSD card aligns with the entrance of the slot of the  
Handheld Terminal ( ).  
Insert the card rmly all the way into the slot.  
Avoid inserting the card diagonally.  
2. Close the cover of the microSD card slot.  
E-34  
Removing  
1. Open the cover of the microSD card slot and press on the microSD card ( ).  
The microSD card is pushed out ( ).  
2. Pull out the microSD card and close the cover of the microSD card slot.  
Important!  
A microSD card must be inserted with the top and bottom properly aligned  
and in the proper direction. Attempt in inserting it with an excessive force in  
incorrect orientation can risk damage to the connectors and slot.  
Never turn off the power or remove a microSD card from the slot while the card  
is being accessed. Doing so can damage the microSD card or data in the card.  
Do not drop the card or lose it.  
E-35  
Performing Bluetooth® Communication  
Bluetooth® interface can also be used to transfer data between two Handheld Terminals.  
With Bluetooth® the two Handheld Terminals should be located within about three meters  
3
8
'10 "  
(9  
) from each other, as long as there is nothing blocking the path between them.  
Important!  
Observe the following precautions to help ensure that Bluetooth communication is  
successful.  
3
8
'10 "  
Make sure two Handheld Terminals face each other within three meters (9  
).  
Surroundings (obstacles) between the Handheld Terminals may cause a shorter  
distance.  
Make sure there is at least two meters (6'7") between the Handheld Terminal and  
other equipment (electrical appliances, audio-visual equipment, OA equipment,  
and digital cordless telephones, facsimile machines, etc.). Take special care with  
3
8
microwave ovens. Allow at least three meters (9'10 ) between the Handheld  
Terminals in wireless operation and a microwave oven. When operating the  
terminal in Bluetooth nearby these devices and electrical appliances with their  
powers being turned on, communication may be interrupted or TV and radio  
receptions may be interfered (images on the screen produced by certain channels  
of UHF and broadcast satellite may become blurry).  
Normal communication may not be possible in an area near a broadcast trans-  
mitter or wireless transmitter. If this happens, move the Handheld Terminal to a  
different location. Normal communication may not be possible in areas exposed  
to strong radio waves.  
Interference by WLAN  
Because Bluetooth® and WLAN use the same frequency band (2.4GHz), radio  
interference can occur if there is a WLAN device nearby. This can result in lower  
communication speed, or even make it impossible to establish a connection. If  
this happens, try the following countermeasures.  
3
4
'10 "  
Move at least 10 meters (32  
) away from the WLAN device.  
3
4
'10 "  
If you cannot keep the distance at least 10 meters (32  
) or more between the  
Handheld Terminal and a WLAN device, turn off the power of either the Handheld  
Terminal or the WLAN device.  
Although the Handheld Terminal enables WLAN and Bluetooth® communication  
to be used simultaneously as a result of being equipped with Bluetooth® Ver.2.0,  
communication may not be possible depending on the surrounding radio wave  
environment.  
E-36  
Resetting the Handheld Terminal  
Resetting the terminal is the same as resetting a PC. Performing a reset causes all  
unsaved RAM data to be lost that are in mid-course of inputting and editing, but data  
and settings that are already stored in the FlashROM should be unaffected.  
Perform a reset to restore normal operation whenever the Handheld Terminal operates  
abnormally due to misoperation or some other reason.  
Use the pen (stylus) to press the reset switch on the back of the terminal.  
This starts the reset operation.  
* Do not use a toothpick or pencil or other sharp  
object whose tip may break off the reset switch.  
Performing a Full Reset (Initialization)  
Performing a full reset deletes all data and resets various settings to their defaults.  
*Data stored in the Flashdisk folder remain unaffected.  
Perform a full reset whenever any one of the following conditions exists.  
When you want to delete installed programs and settings, and resume the terminal to  
the initial condition.  
When you are no longer able to use the Handheld Terminal because you forgot your  
password.  
When the Handheld Terminal does not operate normally due to a memory problem.  
Important!  
Performing a full reset resets all data to their defaults except stored in the  
Flashdisk folder. If possible, backup data of the terminal to a PC or to the  
Flashdisk folder. The reset procedure and display message appeared on

Allowing the power supply terminals become wet can cause an electric shock  
or re. In addition, if the terminals become soiled, contact may be impaired  
resulting in poor charging. For reasons of safety and maintaining charging  
battery pack(s) in optimum condition, clean the power supply terminals by  
wiping with a dry cloth or cotton swab after disconnecting the AC adaptor.  
Never short out the power supply terminals of the USB Cradle. This can  
damage the USB Cradle.  
Do not subject the Handheld Terminal and USB Cradle to vibration or impact  
during communication. This can cause communication to be interrupted.  
When mounting the DT-X8, securely attach to the mount hooks of the USB  
Cradle and make sure that the power LED at the front of the USB Cradle is lit in  
green. Charging and communication will not proceed properly if the DT-X8 is not  
mounted properly.
