Reboot
Reboot performs a warm or cold boot from the touch screen. All Dolphin terminals reboot with keyboard
commands; Reboot offers you the option of using the touch screen instead.
Warm Boot
A warm boot is a soft reset. A soft reset re-boots the device without losing RAM data.
You would perform a soft reset when
• the terminal fails to respond.
• after installing software applications that require a re-boot.
• after making changes to certain system settings, such as network cards.
Cold Boot
A cold boot is a hard reset. A hard reset resets the operating system, restores the terminal back to factory
defaults, and resets the terminal.
A hard reset erases all of the data stored in RAM memory and all RAM installed applications! Only data
and applications stored in
\IPSM
(
\Honeywell
for 6100
/6500
) memory persist.
