Batch Terminal Operation

Your hand-held computer contains internal memory so it

can collect and store data and then at the end of a day or

shift, transmit (send) it to a centrally located host comput-

er. Many applications do this upload and download of in-

formation daily, but sometimes this may happen several

times a day, or only occur weekly.

Terminal Emulation

In Terminal Emulation you are using your hand-held

computer to imitate the appearance and operation of

another terminal (usually a particular IBM or DEC display

monitor). The keyboard overlays for the emulated terminals

supported by this computer are contained in Appendix B.

Accessories and Options

Internal Scanner

Your hand-held computer can be ordered with an internal

integrated scanner. An integrated scanner provides the con-

venience of having a computer and scanner in one, for the

freedom of one handed operation.

Internal Radio

Your hand-held computer can be factory equipped with ei-

ther a 902 MHz or 2.4 GHz spread spectrum radio. This

computer with a radio provides for both batch (store and

forward data transfer later) and real-time (right now) inter-

action with your host computer or network for flexibility of

operation.
