Resetting the Pegaso

There are several reset methods for the Pegaso.

• A warm reset terminates an unresponsive application and clears the work-

ing RAM, but preserves the file system.

• A cold reset forces all applications to close and clears working RAM and

files not resident on the persistent flash memory.

• A Safe Reset restores the Pegaso to factory configuration.

Warm Reset

A warm reset is a transition from the on or idle condition that closes all applica-
tions, clears the working RAM, but preserves the file system. If an application
“hangs,” initiate a warm reset to terminate the application.

Procedure to Warm Reset —

Press the three keys in the sequence shown.

All three keys must be held down for the unit to reset. Refer to

Figure 14

for the

location of the reset keys.

CAUTION

Datalogic recommends that you always attempt a warm reset before
initiating a cold reset. Once you initiate a cold reset, all applications
are forcibly closed and working RAM and files are cleared.

It is a good idea to store important data in flash (persistent) storage
for this reason. Refer to Persistent Memory on page 23. More inf
orma-
tion can be found in the Pegaso PRG
