Resetting Your SPT 1500 Terminal
Under normal circumstances, you will never have to use the reset
button. However, on rare occasions your SPT 1500 terminal may
"hang" (no longer respond to buttons or the screen). In this case,
you need to perform a reset to get your SPT 1500 terminal running
again.
Performing a Soft Reset
A soft reset tells your SPT 1500 terminal to stop what it's doing and
start over again. All records and entries stored in your SPT 1500
terminal are retained with a soft reset. After a soft reset, the
Welcome to Palm III terminal screen appears followed by the
General Preferences screen (to set time and date).
To perform a soft reset, use the tip of an unfolded paper clip (or
similar object without a sharp tip) to gently press the reset button
inside the hole on the back panel of your SPT 1500 terminal.

Performing a Hard Reset
A hard reset also tells your SPT 1500 terminal to start over again.
With a hard reset all records and entries stored in your SPT 1500
terminal are erased. Therefore, never perform a hard reset unless a
soft reset does not solve your problem.
