Network Transmit This icon turns on when data is buffered in the RF network interface. The data is either waiting to be transmitted to the DCS 30X or host, or received data has not been accepted by the application on the 2435. When no data is being buffered in the interface, the Network Transmit icon is off.

Modifier Key This icon indicates that one of the modifier keys, such as W, is enabled. When you press another key, the key combination is available to the application. The Modifier icon turns off unless the second key that you pressed is another modifier key that is different from the first one that you pressed.

Caps Lock This icon turns on when you press LRto enable the Caps Lock feature. When you press LRagain to disable Caps Lock, the icon turns off.

If Caps Lock is enabled, this icon remains on until you disable Caps Lock.

User Defined This icon is user defined. You can program this icon to turn on and off for any task or error within your application.

Learning About the Audio Signals

The terminal has a beeper that provides you with audio feedback as you use the terminal. For example, you hear a beep tone each time you enter or scan a valid command. You can change the beep volume and the beep duration to meet the needs of your working environment.

When you change the beep volume, you also change the keyclick volume if the Keypad Clicker command is enabled. The keyclick is the sound that you hear when you press a key on the terminal.

There are three ways to change the beep volume:

Press LC. Each time you press LC, the beep volume becomes one level louder. There are five beep volume levels including off. If the volume is at the Cloudest level and you press LC, the beep volume is turned off. If you press L

again, the volume changes to the quietest level.

Note: When you use the keypad to change the beep and keyclick volume, the changes are not saved permanently in flash memory. You can save the changes in flash memory later. For help, see “Exiting Screens and Saving Changes” in Chapter 2.

Use the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System. From the Main Menu, choose Configuration Menu, then Terminal Menu, and then Beeper.

Use the Beep Volume command. For help, see “Beep Volume” in Chapter 6 of the 2400 Family system manual.
