Installation
Components
The components in your R/F Terminal system will vary according to the
configuration of your system. Your R/F Terminal shipment should contain at least:
•
An R/F Terminal
T701 or LT701
(unit includes keypad and display).
If the R/F Terminal is an LT701 model, it will have an integrated laser
scanner built-in to the body of the terminal. Each terminal is shipped
with a shoulder strap, boot, and Setup Menu.
•
An optional Scanner
– if you ordered the
T701
models instead of the
LT701
models with the built-in laser scanner.
•
Optional rechargeable batteries
and a
9v
power supply.
•
Utilities CD ROM
– demo programs, DLL, and firmware loader program
If
Base Stations
were ordered with your system, you should receive at least:
•
A Base Station (B551)
including a 5v power adapter for each.
•
A Serial Cable (F34 or F36)
if a
Base Station
.
•
A Relay Test Cable and junction connector block
if ordering bases
as
Relay Stations
.
Keep the shipping box for the R/F Terminal in the event it is necessary to
return equipment for repair later.
Installation Sequence
1.
Start with one Terminal and Base Station
. Get everything working

are working, add the first relay. Then add remaining relays,
remembering to: 1) assign
Relay ID
s, and 2) set the jumpers of each
relay to
terminated
or
not terminated
properly.
2. All equipment is shipped with the default setting of Channel 0, Terminal
ID 0, and Relay ID 0. Unless you have other Terminal/Base
configurations already operating on that channel, you probably don’t
need to change the channel.
3. A Base and a Relay are the same product. A jumper change is all that is
required to use a Base station as a Relay. See
Appendix A
for details.
4. Without attaching the Base Station to the computer, and with only the
