2.4 Handling the PDT
 
2.4.1 Starting the PDT 
Press the power key to turn ON/OFF the PDT. If the PDT does not power on, perform a cold 
boot, see chapter 2.7 “Resetting”.

and boots automatically.

2.4.2 Power on / off 
 
To turn ON the PDT 
Press the power key briefly ( ). If the PDT does not power on, perform a cold reset, see 
chapter 2.7. 
 
While the PDT initializes its file system, the splash screen displays for about 30 seconds 
followed by the calibration screen. Every time you perform a cold reset, these screens will 
appear. 
 
To turn OFF the PDT 
Press the power key again. This action does not actually turn off the PDT, it only turns the PDT 
into suspend mode. All running applications remain as you left them, until you press the power 
key again to resume operation of the PDT. 
 
When the PDT is powered on for the first 
time, it initializes its system. A splash 
screen (figure 2-13) appears for a short 
period of time followed by the WinCE.NET 
4.2 window.
