PwrOFF time
This parameter is used in conjunction with “PwrON time” to reduce the power
consumption of the radio. The terminal turns off for this period of time, and
following the power off time, turns on for a very short period of time to determine
if the terminal is still on-line. If the terminal is on-line, it is turned off for the
“PwrOFF time”. If the terminal is off-line, it is re-initialized and stays on for
the “PwrON time”.
In cellular mode, the radio turns off for twice this period after all channels have been
checked and no suitable channel is found. This parameter is in units of 1/2 seconds.
To disable this parameter, set it to zero.
PwrON xmit
This parameter determines the amount of time the radio stays on after a
transmission, waiting for a response from the base station.
Important: If the value in the “PwrON Xmit” is set too low, the terminal may
miss the response from the base station, resulting in a lock-up for
the user. This parameter needs to be set between 2 and 20 depend-
ing on the response time of the system. For example, if the host
responds slowly, the value in this parameter should be set to a
higher value.
D.4.4 CIS Data
This sub-menu displays Card Information Structure (CIS) data – that is manufac-
turer information describing the radio installed in your terminal.
