Introduction

The Allegro CE/DOS Field PC is designed to
meet the needs of a user collecting data with a
hand-held computer in a rugged field
environment. This section of the manual
describes the unique hardware components of
the Allegro, including the case, keyboard,
display, communication ports, batteries, PC
card slot, and expansion pods.

Some hardware and software features are only
functional within one operating system. For
example, the touchscreen is used to operate
Windows CE; it is not operational when you are
in DOS. Conversely, the display panning
features only apply to operation while in DOS.

Throughout the manual, one of the following
symbols is shown next to the description of the
features that are unique to one operating
system:

W

IN

c

E

DOS

If one of these symbols is not shown, the feature is functional for both
operating systems.
