R/F Terminal Menu Functions
Upon power-up, the R/F Terminal displays the following opening screen:
R/F TERMINAL LT7001
FIRMWARE: Uxxx – HWyy-Rzz
USA CHANNEL: 0 TERM ID: 0
HIT ANY KEY TO CONTINUE
(The opening screen can be bypassed upon power up. See Chapter 2)
• On second line on the screen, FIRMWARE: Uxxx, gives the firmware revision number. The letter U
indicates USA frequency. Rzz refers to the version of the radio processor firmware.
• HWyy indicates the version of the hardware.
• TERM ID: 0 refers to the current Terminal ID. The default setting is 0. Every Terminal must have a
unique ID.
• Line 3 refers to the channel currently used by the R/F Terminal. USA CHANNEL: 0 refers to a Terminal
set to channel 0.
To move on to the main menu, press any key on the R/F Terminal keypad. The display now reads:
• Press the 1 key to SIGN ON to a two-way communication host computer program through the Base
station.
• Pressing 2 enters the Setup Mode for the R/F Terminal or Base station.
• Press 3 to enter ONE-WAY mode. ONE-WAY mode allows the R/F Terminal to transmit data to the host
computer without prompting from the host computer program – we call this “dumb” data entry. (If you
want a Terminator Character on the bar code, you will have to enter a Postamble using the Setup Menu).
ONE-WAY mode is also useful for demos, as it does not require any interaction from the host computer.
• Press 4 to enter SITE TESTING. SITE TESTING is an excellent way to assess your R/F
communication in any area. It can help you determine the best place to locate your Base station for
maximum R/F performance as well as troubleshoot problems that may relate to range or interference.
You can back-out of any mode or prompt by pressing the F1 key. For example, if you select SETUP MODE
but really want ONE WAY MODE, press the F1 key to take you back to the menu. The F1 key on the R/F
Terminal keypad works like the ESC key on the PC – it will usually get you out and back to the previous
