Turning The Terminals On And Off
Important: Any differences in operation between the 7035 hand-held and the
8255/8260 vehicle-mount terminals are explicitly indicated.
The Teklogix 7035, 8255 and 8260 terminals are fully functional personal
computers (PCs), compatible with the IBM AT (486) architecture. They normally
come pre-loaded with DOS. These terminals are intended to be used in terminal
emulation mode for real-time wireless data transaction processing. However, they
can also be used stand-alone in batch mode.
The remainder of this manual describes terminal operation as it applies to normal
terminal emulation mode, utilizing wireless communication to a host computer.
The operation of these terminals depends on the application software running on the
host computer. The terminals’ interaction with the application depends on both
the terminal operating system and the terminal hardware. This chapter outlines the
unique features of the hardware. For more information on the terminal operating
system, see Chapter 7: Setting Parameters.
2.4.1 7035 Hand-Held Terminal
Turning On The 7035
The 7035 does not have a dedicated On/Off button.
To turn the 7035 on:
• Press and hold down the <ENTER/ON> key for at least one second.
Turning Off The 7035
Important: Turning the 7035 off does not result in a complete reboot; rather,
the terminal enters a power-saving, “suspend” mode (assuming
that a value other than ‘Disabled’ has been assigned to the
power-saving parameter, “Power Down” - see page 129). When
the terminal is turned on from suspend state, operation resumes
within a few seconds. The terminal will emit a few beep sequences
while it wakes from suspend state.
To turn the 7035 off:
• Press the <BLUE> key, and then press the <ENTER/ON> key.
