Brief description and Tips for the Pidion BIP-6000 Series

Introduction

The Pidion PID-6000 series (FAQs) will be the second device officially supported by MDA.

Unfortunately it has initially been developed for Windows CE 6, too, and Android 2.3.7 was kind of forced on to the very same hardware.

Quick Start Tips

Read the chapter "Android semantics of BIP-6000 series hardware keys"

See below.

Unlocking the Screen

Take the pen or a finger and "drag" the green thing shown on the touch-sensitive screen from the left side to the right side.

It should be possible to disable the screen locker in the settings.
