Resetting A Skorpio HHT
This article applies to the Datalogic Skorpio X3 and X4. Pictures are
of the Skorpio X4.
If the HHT has got itself into a frozen or crashed state, and has
stopped responding or is not behaving correctly, resetting the
terminal can more often than not resolve the error state.
Warm Boot
A warm boot terminates any currently running applications and clears
the RAM. The system is left intact ready to be used again, with the
Fidelity application (and Upgrader where applicable) left installed
and configured as it was before the warm boot. This is often useful
for dealing with the Fidelity application getting stuck or frozen,
or for forcing a WiFi reconnection when it's not been possible to
manually connect it.
To complete a warm boot, press and hold the yellow, blue and ESC buttons simultaneously.
Cold Boot
A cold boot terminates any currently running applications and clears
the RAM, but also reinitialises the system and as part of the
restart process, the Fidelity application (and Upgrader where
applicable) is reinstalled. This is useful for when the Fidelity
application has frozen or failed, and a warm boot does not resolve
the problem.
To complete a cold boot, follow the below steps.
| 1. Turn the HHT off by holding
the On/Off button. | |
| 2. Remove the battery pack -
pull down the latch and then lift the battery off. | |
| 3. Press and hold the SCAN button and the Reset button in the battery
compartment. | |
| 4. Replace the battery pack -
place the battery into the compartment and then push down
until the latch clicks. | |
| 5. Turn the HHT on by holding
the On/Off button. |
The HHT will then run through a short routine to reinitialise itself
and reinstall the Fidelity application. You will need to run the Get
Lookups routine again in the Fidelity application to reimport
Product and User data.
