PRECAUTIONS

• Always exercise care when operating and handling the 316T.
• Do NOT apply excessive pressure to the display screen.
• We recommend using the Digital Pen (optional) to keep the screen clean.
• Avoid prolonged exposure of the display panel to any strong heat source. Wherever possible, the 316T should face away from direct light to reduce glare.
• If the AC-DC power adapter is used to recharge or power the tablet, do NOT use any AC-DC adapter other than the one provided or acquired from the manufacturer or its partners.
• In the unlikely event that smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present, immediately power off the 316T and disconnect all power sources. Report the problem to your device provider immediately.
• Never attempt to disassemble the 316T, as this will void the warranty.

BASIC FEATURES

The 316T wireless tablet integrates a bright and multi-touch display, one USB port, and embedded networking elements such as wireless LAN and Bluetooth. The 316T is complemented by a suite of accessories, including battery expansion, charging cradles, and battery charger kit, for a comprehensive user experience. A 316T typically integrates an 802.11ax wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter that may connect to other wireless devices or access points. If your 316T does not come with such a network adapter, please consult your device provider to establish the desired network connectivity.

OPERATION

Powering ON and OFF
To activate the 316T, push and quickly release the Power Button. The display will come on in a few seconds. To put the 316T in Standby mode, push and quickly release the Power Button. To turn the 316T off for extended storage, power off safely using any software function that “shuts down the computer” provided in the software operating system.

NOTE:
The battery packs shipped with your tablet may be low in power—please use the AC-DC adapter with the 316T when setting up for the first time to fully charge the internal battery pack. You may charge the external battery pack with it attached to the 316T, or with the optional external battery charger kit.

NOTE:
When the battery pack is charging, the blue-colored Battery LED should blink slowly. If plugging in the AC-DC adapter does not trigger this blinking activity and the LED stays dark, the battery pack may have been drained substantially. Try unplugging/ replugging the AC-DC adapter to the 316T a few times to activate the charging process.

NOTE:
To conserve power, use (push and quick release) the Power Button to put the tablet in “Standby” mode while not in use. Pushing briefly on the same button will wake up the system within seconds.

NOTE:
Avoid using the Power Button (“hold 4+ seconds” feature) to turn off the tablet—this form of hardware shutdown is intended to be a means of recovery from lockups, and not as normal operation.

Start-Up
If the power-up (from Standby mode or otherwise) is successful, the appropriate interface will be displayed after a launch sequence of several seconds. The wireless LAN connection may take 10-15 seconds to be established.

Configuring the Mobile Tablet
The 316T may be configured using the utilities and methods dictated by the software operating system. The 316T should be configurable for various properties such as user profiles, network features, and several system elements. Wireless Networking

Wireless LAN
The 316T is often delivered with an embedded (user-inaccessible) 802.11ax WLAN adapter equipped with a hidden custom antenna.

• Through the support of typical WLAN adapters, the 316T should be able to detect all 802.11 access points in the vicinity for you to select the access point of your choice for connection.
• The SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 (if enabled) parameters on the 316T and the access points have to match. The SSID is case-sensitive and it is recommended that you enable WEP/WPA/WPA2 encryption (or advanced alternatives) for secure access.
• When WEP/WPA/WPA2 is enabled, you may need to consult your network administrator or your networking equipment literature to properly configure associated settings such as Authentication mode, etc.
• Refer to the access point operating manuals for setting up the 802.11 access points.

Bluetooth
The 316T offers the Bluetooth module which supports Bluetooth 5.2 standard including Bluetooth 3.0 High Speed and Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy, which delivers faster speeds with low power consumption.

USING THE MOBILE TABLET

Peripherals Support
Through its USB port, the 316T supports a wide range of USB-based peripherals. These peripherals are applicable for software installation, applications storage, data storage, and system software recovery and updates.

RF Exposure Information (RED & UKCA)

To be protected against all verified adverse effects, the separation distance of at least 0mm must be maintained between the antenna of the radio having max. 3.9dBi antenna and all persons. Hereby, [DT Research, Inc.] declares that the radio equipment type [316T] complies with Directive 2014/53/EU and UK Radio Equipment Regulations 2017. The full text of the EU and UK declaration of conformity is available at the following internet address: http://www.dtresearch.com. The functions of Wireless Access Systems including Radio Local Area Networks(WAS/RLANs) within the band 5150-5350 MHz and 5945-6425MHz for this device are restricted to indoor use only within all European Union countries (BE/BG/CZ/DK/DE/EE/IE/EL/ES/FR/HR/ IT/CY/LV/LT/LU/HU/MT/NL/AT/PL/PT/RO/SI/SK/FI/SE/TR/N O/CH/IS/LI/UK(NI).
