ATS TEST MODE
ATS TEST MODE checks the functionality of the terminal Keypad, Memory, Real Time Clock, and Bar Code
reader.
The message “
ATS TEST MODE
” appears on the top line of the display. The 2
nd
line of the display indicates the
program (EPROM) number. To enter the TEST MODE, press the ENTER key. The following information
appears:
ATS TEST MODE (XXX) (YY)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The display shows “
ATS TEST MODE
” on the top line followed by two sets of numbers. The first number
(XXX) indicates the amount of memory installed (in Kilobytes). The right most number (YY) indicates the
terminal Real Time Clock incrementing in seconds (00-59).
Testing the Keypad
At this time the user may test the keypad assembly. The hinged cover must be reattached to the enclosure for this
test to be performed. Each time a key is pressed the terminal will beep and the key value will appear on the 2
nd
line
of the display. Press the ENTER key. The message “KEY INPUT ACCEPTED” is displayed. Each time the
ENTER key is pressed an internal test of the terminal’s communication port is performed. If an error is detected
the message “COMM PORT FAIL” will display, the invalid light will flash and the negative acknowledgement
beeper tone will cycle. This message will continue until power is removed from the terminal. Refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide of this manual for adjustment.

The terminal beeps and displays the badge data.
To proceed to the ATS SETUP MODE press the CLEAR key.
