SPT 1700 Series Product Reference Guide
Low battery warning after recharging the batteries:
!
The battery warning message may appear immediately after recharging the battery.
In addition, if you check the battery gauge in the Applications Launcher
immediately
after recharging the battery, the gauge may start at “empty” and slowly rise to “full.”
This is normal. It takes a few minutes for the battery gauge to accurately show the
condition of the battery.
No sound:
!
Check the System Sound option in the General Preferences screen. If the option is set
to off, there will be no sound. See
General Preferences on page 12-9 for more
information.
No sound upon good decode:
!
Check that the system Sound option is set in the General Preferences screen and that
Beep on Good Decode is set (checked) in Hardware Setup in the Scan Demo
Application.
SPT 1700 terminal turns itself off:
!
Your SPT 1700 terminal is designed to turn itself off after a period of inactivity. This
period can be set at one minute, two minutes or three minutes. Check the “Auto-off
after” setting in the General Preferences screen, and change the setting if you need a
longer delay before the automatic shutoff feature activates. See
General Preferences
on page 12-9 for more information.
SPT 1700 terminal doesn’t recognize my handwriting:
!
For your SPT 1700 terminal to recognize handwriting input with the stylus, you need
to use the Graffiti
®
character strokes. See Writing With the Stylus on page 3-7 for
information about how to write Graffiti character strokes.
!
Make the Graffiti character strokes in the Graffiti writing area — not on the display
part of the screen.
!
Make sure you are writing the strokes for letters in the left-hand side, and the strokes
for numbers in the right-hand side of the Graffiti writing area.
!
Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted into extended or punctuation modes. See
Writing With the Stylus on page 3-7 for information about shifting into and out of
punctuation modes.
