Installation

Components

The components in your R/F Terminal system will vary according to the
configuration of your system. Your R/F Terminal shipment should contain at least:
An R/F Terminal T701 or LT701 (unit includes keypad and display).
If the R/F Terminal is an LT701 model, it will have an integrated laser
scanner built-in to the body of the terminal. Each terminal is shipped
with a shoulder strap, boot, and Setup Menu.
An optional Scanner – if you ordered the T701 models instead of the
LT701 models with the built-in laser scanner.
Optional rechargeable batteries and a 9v power supply.
Utilities CD ROM – demo programs, DLL, and firmware loader program
If Base Stations were ordered with your system, you should receive at least:
A Base Station (B551) including a 5v power adapter for each.
A Serial Cable (F34 or F36) if a Base Station.
A Relay Test Cable and junction connector block if ordering bases
as Relay Stations.
Keep the shipping box for the R/F Terminal in the event it is necessary to
return equipment for repair later.

Installation Sequence

1. Start with one Terminal and Base Station. Get everything working
with the single terminal and base and then add other terminals, being
certain that all terminals have unique Terminal IDs. After all terminals
are working, add the first relay. Then add remaining relays,
remembering to: 1) assign Relay IDs, and 2) set the jumpers of each
relay to terminated or not terminated properly.
2. All equipment is shipped with the default setting of Channel 0, Terminal
ID 0, and Relay ID 0. Unless you have other Terminal/Base
configurations already operating on that channel, you probably don’t
need to change the channel.
3. A Base and a Relay are the same product. A jumper change is all that is
required to use a Base station as a Relay. See Appendix A for details.
4. Without attaching the Base Station to the computer, and with only the
