RF Terminal Operation
Using the RF Terminal keypad…
The RF Terminal is turned on by pressing the green ON/OFF button located in the upper left-hand
corner of the RF Terminal keypad.
It is a good idea to fully charge the RF Terminal before you use it the first time to make sure the battery
charged. See below for more information on battery charging.
The RF Terminal has a Shut Down Time feature that allows you to determine the length of time the RF
Terminal must be inactive before automatically shutting down to conserve battery power. When the RF
Terminal shuts down, simply press the ON/OFF button to resume operation.
The keypad is custom designed for the RF Terminal operations. It has numeric and control keys in the non-
shifted state, and alpha characters in its shifted state. You can readily determine if the SHIFT is on by the
cursor on the display. When SHIFT is on, the cursor is a large rectangle. When SHIFT is off, the cursor is a
narrow underline character. For all prompts which ask for a YES or NO response, the ENTER key, is the
YES reply, and the 0 (zero) key is the NO reply. As you key data, you will see each character displayed on
the screen. If you make a mistake, you can delete the last character by pressing the DELETE key, or you can
clear all characters displayed on the screen by pressing the CLEAR key.
Battery Life Indicator
The RF Terminal detects low battery and displays the following message:
LOW BATTERY
Charge Battery
Hit Any Key_
At this point you have approximately 10% of battery life remaining. You should complete what you are
doing and charge the battery soon. When the battery is too low to operate the unit properly another message
is displayed:
Battery too Low to Operate
Hit Any Key to Power Down
If you turn it back on without charging batteries, you may experience constant beeping, intermittent scanning,
and very irritating symptoms that look like equipment failure.
The RF Terminal also has a battery life indicator that can be accessed while operating in ONE-WAY or
TWO-WAY mode or while in the MENU. To display the remaining battery life of the battery (as well as the
date and time) press the
STATUS key:
mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss
BATTERY: ||||||||||||||||||||
zz%
R7Uxxx ID=0 CH=0 RL=N
SC=N RF=8C C=N
zz=percent in numbers i.e. 99, 10, 05
Press the
STATUS key again to resume processing.
The lifetime of the RF Terminal's Li-Ion battery is 500-1000 charge cycles. If the battery runtime seems to
