Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1 Overview

Thank you for choosing the HT580 from Unitech Electronic Co. Ltd. This Portable Data Collection

Terminal is one of the most user-friendly handheld terminals on the market - perfect for small retailers.

Developed under the C language, the HT580’s proprietary Operating System is capable of helping

you develop and run application programs specically designed by you for your own unique business.

Weighing only 150g (5.3 oz), the light weight of the HT580 is ideal for the long work days typical in a

retail environment. Despite its light weight, the HT580 is unusually robust - capable of sustaining 1.2

meter (4 foot) drops to a concrete oor.

We believe the HT580 will more than satisfy your own unique retail requirements. The HT580 stan-

dard package includes the HT580 terminal, communication cradle, adaptor, USB & RS232 Y cable,

holster, and strap. Additionally, two alternative types of communication/charging cradles - RS232 and

Modem - are offered as options.

1.6 Battery Storage and Safety Precautions

Batteries should be stored at normal room temperature. Avoid placing them in any situation where ex-

plosion or damage could possibly occur. The Li-Ion batteries may lose their charge if not used for sever-

al months due to back up and internal resistance. If this happens, we suggest recharging prior to use.

Remove Main Battery

To remove the main battery, press down on the release button while pushing out the cover on the unit.

We suggest that the battery not be removed, if possible.

Charging

When starting to operate the HT580, the main battery must be fully charged before the rst use. The

HT580 is equipped with a 3.7V 600mAH Lithium-Ion battery. It takes 8 hours to fully charge the main

battery when empty. We suggest users recharge the battery regularly after long hours of use.

This icon shown in the menu indicates the current battery capacity status.

There are 2 ways to charge the main battery:

1. Mount the unit in the cradle and connect the power adaptor between the back of the cradle and

any power outlet.

2. Or, use the standard USB cable and connect it to your PC’s USB port.
