Learning About the Status Icons

You can use the status icons on the right side of the screen to monitor the status of battery power, special keys, and network communications. The status icons only turn on to indicate the current status. When the 243X is off, the icons are also off.

Battery This icon remains off when you have a charged battery pack in the terminal. The icon turns on when there is a low battery charge and the terminal is on. When the terminal beeps once every 15 seconds, replace the battery pack with a charged battery pack or charge the battery pack as soon as possible.

Network Connect This icon tells you if the 2435 is connected to your network. The Network Connect status icon may be off, blinking, or on.

When the Network Connect icon is off, you are not connected to the network. Make sure the Network Activate command is enabled and that the terminal is configured correctly for your RF network. Make sure that you are in range of an access point.

In a UDP Plus network, this icon is not instantaneously updated, but it does tell you the communications status the last time data was sent or received from the 2435.
