Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Monitoring The Network Connection, Uploading Data In a Docking Station

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2

Monitoring The Network Connection

•To minimize storage degradation, recharge stored batteries to 40 to 60% every 4 or 6 months to prevent over-discharge damage.

•A ‘never used’ Li-Ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have limited or no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries as perishable goods.

3.9Monitoring The Network Connection

If your hand-held is equipped with a wireless LAN radio, it will typically associate with the nearest access point. The radio signal quality meter in the taskbar indicates the relative strength of the communication link.

•Tap on the Radio icon in the taskbar to display the Wireless Statistics dialog box.

To access the radio signal icon using the keyboard:

•Press [BLUE] [0] to display the Start Menu.

•Highlight Shortcuts and then choose System Tray from the sub-menu.

•Use the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] arrow keys to highlight the radio signal icon in the taskbar.

•Press [ENTER] to display the Wireless Statistics dialog box.

Note: Moving in and out of the radio coverage area can have varying effects on a network session. At times, you may need to renew your connection by logging in again.

3.10 Uploading Data In A Docking Station

The Combo Docking and Quad Docking peripherals allow your hand-held to link to an Ethernet network. They are typically used to upload transaction data to a server computer when a radio link is not available. When a 7530 G2 is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the taskbar at the bottom of the unit screen. The hand-held also detects the presence of the Ethernet network. Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in your 7530 G2 before preforming data uploads.
