Battery Life Indicator

The R/F Terminal detects low AA batteries and displays the following message:

LOW BATTERIES

Finish, Sign Off

Change Batteries

Hit Any Key_

At this point you have approximately 2 minutes of operational time to finish your transaction (or note where you are leaving off if in the middle of a transaction) and sign off. After 2 minutes, the R/F Terminal displays:

CHANGE BATTERIES

UNIT SHUT DOWN_

This message displays for 20 seconds before the R/F Terminal signs off from the host (if signed on) and then shuts itself down. If you turn it back on without changing batteries, you may experience constant beeping, intermittent scanning, and very irritating symptoms that look like equipment failure.

Once you remove the batteries, you have 5 minutes to change them before you lose the date and time in the Real-Time Clock.

The R/F Terminal also has a battery life indicator. Press the STATUS key to display the remaining battery life of the AA batteries (as well as the date, time and other information) as follows:

mm/dd/yy hh:mm

alk - when Alkaline batteries are specified in Battery setup rch- when NiMH or specified in Battery setup zz=percent or battery life left in numbers i.e. 99, 50, 23

Server IP either shows the Server's fixed TCPIP address; or if Device searches out the Server, shows 0.0.0.0.

Device IP either shows the Device's fixed TCPIP address or, if it is determined by a DHCP Server, shows 0.0.0.0.

Ch:=n shows the channel to start using, (the channel of the most frequently used Access Point).

SSID=xxxxxxxxxxxx refers to the first 12 characters of the up to 32 character network name.
