EasyCoder PX6i User’s Guide (Fingerprint version) 13
Chapter 2 — Installation
Display
The display window contains an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) with
background illumination and two lines of text, each with 16 characters.
It provides information on installed fi rmware or running application,
prompts the operator in Intermec Shell and in the Setup Mode, and can
show information on possible errors and active communication channels.
The Intermec Fingerprint programming language and the Intermec
Direct Protocol allow custom-made messages to be composed and dis-
played according to the requirements of the application.
Keyboard
The keyboard is of the membrane-switch type and has 22 keys and a
“Print” button. Some keys have hard-coded functions in the startup and
setup modes.
Print/Pause a print job. Repeat last printed label.
Toggle between pause and printing when executing a print job.
Interrupt a running Fingerprint program.
Enter the Setup Mode (see Chapter 7).
Feed out a blank label or the equivalent.
Perform a Testfeed (feed a blank label, adjust the media feed).
Display error messages, IRI status, and communication channel
information.
Scroll between various types of information after pressing the
<F5/i> key. Possible error messages and information on active
communication channels are shown in a loop.
In application programs created using the Intermec Fingerprint pro-
gramming language, the keys can be assigned to various functions or
be disabled individually. Since one key is assigned as shift key, up to 44
different key combinations are possible. An audible signal, which can be
turned off if so desired, acknowledges that a key has been pressed.
