Resetting the SX66
You can perform a
soft reset
or a
full reset
. During a
soft reset
, the device is restarted and
only some data in opened programs may be lost. However, a
full reset
turns the battery off,
returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs, files, contacts
and other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely important to
back up data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event that a
full
reset
has to be performed.
To perform a soft reset
If your SX66 responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can
soft reset
it.
A
soft
reset
causes the SX66 to restart and re-adjust memory allocation. Unsaved data in any
opened applications may be lost.
Use the stylus to press and hold the
Reset
button, as
shown bellow.
To perform a full reset
A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data and restores the SX66 to its default set-
tings. Programs installed at the factory remain, erasing all data that you have created and
programs you have installed. Press and hold the
power button,
and then use the stylus to
press the
soft reset button
at the same time. Be sure you have backed up all your data in
a SD card or on your PC before performing a full reset.
