RF Terminal Channel

Default Channel 0

•The terminal's radio operates by "frequency hopping" spread spectrum. The radios hop from one frequency to another using a pseudo-random sequence. The radio goes through 26 different frequencies and then repeats the sequence – all in the 902-928 MHz band at 250 milliwatts of power. Different sequences define the channels. It is possible to have more than one RF Network in the same area, providing each RF Network is on separate channels to avoid interference and general confusion.

•The default Channel is always shipped as 0. There are 6 channels in the USA. The Channel can be set by pressing the 1 key when in the RF Configuration menu. Each time you press the 1 key the Channel will increment through the 6 possible channels.

All Terminals, Base Stations and Relays in the RF Network must be set to the same channel. The channel is always displayed on the Start Up screen when you power up the Terminal. It is possible to have more than one RF Network in the same area, providing each RF Network is on separate channels to avoid interference and general confusion.

Security Code

Security Code	OFF
Available security codes	3 characters

•A Security Code can be utilized to minimize the possibility of a Base Station listening to data from a Terminal that is talking to a different Base Station. A Security Code can also prevent interference from having many Base Station/RF Terminal configurations in one area; i.e. a merchandise mart with multiple vendors all running RF Terminal networks.

•A Security Code consists of 3 characters - any combination of ASCII 33 - ASCII 126. This allows for the possibility of more than 830,000 different character combinations. The characters are entered using the bar coded FULL ASCII MENU provided in Appendix O; ASCII Code Equivalent Table.

•Once you press 3 to enable the Security Code, you will see 3 boxes appear where you can enter the desired security code. Pressing the CLEAR key will reset the Security Code to the default value which is OFF. You can enter any key on the keypad. If you press the shift key the cursor will turn RED and you can enter any of the shifted values on the keypad.

To enter characters that are not on the keypad, use the FULL ASCII MENU provided in Appendix O.
