Terminal Modes
PageCounter terminal modes include functional modes and
operational modes. Functional modes describe how the terminal
works, independently of the operation you perform on it. Operational
modes describe the usage choice or the operation you perform on the
terminal, such as photocopy or fax.
Functional Modes
PageCounter terminals operate in three functional modes:
• Idle—The terminal is not in use; data entry fields are ready to accept entries.
• Data Entry—The terminal is in use; data entry fields are receiving entries.
• Ready—The terminal is functioning in the selected mode of operation after receiving all
data entries.
Idle Mode
A terminal that is ready for use is in Idle mode. When a user presses any key (unless that
key has a special function), the terminal enters Data Entry mode. The terminal returns to
Idle mode when a user completes a transaction or after a configurable period of keyboard
inactivity in Data Entry mode or Ready mode.
Data Entry Mode
When a user begins entering data in the first data entry field, the terminal enters Data
Entry mode. The terminal transitions to Data Entry mode seamlessly, so it treats the first
key the user presses as the initial character in the first data entry field.
Users can enter accounting data into the fields displayed on the Data Entry screen. When
entering data, users can type the accounting codes directly into the data entry fields, they
can use data entry tools such as swipe cards, or, for Mode 1 terminals, they can use any of
the configured data entry options such as
SEARCH
,
SCAN
, or
RECALL
.
The configuration of the terminal determines the range of transaction functions. The
PageCounter returns to Idle mode when a user completes a transaction or after a
configurable period of keyboard inactivity in Data Entry Mode or Ready mode.
Ready Mode
After a user completes all required accounting entries at the Data Entry screen, the
terminal enters Ready mode, and displays the Ready screen. At this point, the user can
begin using the controlled device to make a transaction.
