How to Reset the Rino 600 Series

There are a few instances in which it is necessary to perform a full reset on a Rino® 600 series outdoor handheld, including the following:

  • Not receiving a satellite signal
  • Restoring the factory default settings
  • Not functioning properly

The information and steps below will walk you through backing up your data and resetting.


Before Resetting

Performing a full reset can cause user data loss. User data is waypoints, routes, tracks, contacts and geocaches.

It is recommended to back up important data with BaseCamp™ software before resetting. For steps, see Related.

Note: Contacts cannot be backed up and will be erased during a reset. Contacts can be re-added by accepting the prompt to save the contact once the other device has initiated a transmission.

If removing data is desired to eliminate corrupt data or free up space, see Related.


Performing a Full Reset

  1. Power the Rino handheld off
  2. Press and hold your finger in the upper left corner of the touchscreen
  3. Power the device on while still maintaining pressure on the touchscreen
  4. Release the power button once the Rino handheld powers on
  5. Release the finger on the display when the message Do you really want to erase all user data? appears
  6. Touch Yes

The Rino is now reset. You will want to take the device outside in a clear view of the sky for a minimum of 20 minutes to re-acquire satellite data.
