The <BLUE> and <ORANGE> modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above the keyboard keys.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Modifier Keys38 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualFigure 3.4 58-Key And 36-Key Keyboard Layouts3.4.1 Modifier KeysThe <SHIFT>, <CTRL>, <ALT>, <BLUE> and <ORANGE> keys are modifierkeys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example, on a 58-key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the <4> key. Pressing the <ORANGE> key followed by the <4> key displays a square bracket rather than the number 4. The <SHIFT>, <CTRL> and <ALT> keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.F11 F12 F13 F14ABC DEFGHI JKL MNOPQRS TUV WXYZSPACE ______F15 F16 F17F19F18F20M3 M4ESCOFFDELF1 F2 F3 F4CTRL TAB1!4$2@3#5%6^7&8*9(.'0)SHIFT ALTBKSPF5 F6 F7 F8F9 M1 M2 F10MENU+-M5 M6ENTERON
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 39Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Activating Modifier Keys3.4.1.1 Activating Modifier KeysWhen a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the bottom of the 7535 screen. For example, if the <CTRL> key is pressed, ctrl key is displayed at the bottom of the unit screen. Once the next key is pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.3.4.1.2 Locking Modifier KeysWhen a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is displayed in uppercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the <BLUE> key twice locks it on – it is displayed as BLUE KEY in the taskbar at the bottom of the computer screen.The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed a third time to unlock or turn it off. Once a modifier key is unlocked (pressed a third time), the uppercase representation at the bottom of the screen is no longer displayed.3.4.2 The KeysThe <SHIFT> KeyThe <SHIFT> key is used to display uppercase alpha characters. A ‘locked’ <SHIFT> key (pressed twice) operates like the <CAPS LOCK> key on a desktop keyboard.The Arrow KeysThe Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow – up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the next character you type will appear.The <BKSP/DEL> KeyThe <BKSP> key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke. The <DEL> key (<BLUE> <BKSP>) erases the character at the cursor position.The <CTRL> And <ALT> KeyThe <CTRL> and <ALT> keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are application dependent.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535The 58-Key Keyboard40 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualThe <TAB> KeyTypically, the <TAB> key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward.The <ESC> KeyGenerally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialogue box or activity and return to the previous one.The <SPACE> KeyPressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialogue box, pressing the <SPACE> key enables (√) or disables a checkbox.The <SCAN> KeyPressing the <SCAN> key – the yellow key with the star-burst scan symbol on it – activates the scanner beam while pressed. For units that do not have internal scanners, this key is either inoperable or can be remapped to another key function (such as an <ENTER> key).3.4.3 The 58-Key KeyboardIn addition to alphanumeric keys that are directly accessible on the keyboard (no key combination is required) and the keys described in this chapter, the 58-key keyboard also provides function keys and macro keys. These keys are not used as part of the Windows CE operating system. They can be custom defined for each application. The Tekterm application utilizes these keys. Refer to “Additional Keyboard Functions” on page 113 for details about Tekterm keys.3.4.4 The 36-Key KeyboardOn 36-key 7535s, all alpha characters are printed on the unit plastic in orangetypeface above the numeric keys. To access an alpha character, you must first press the <ORANGE> key and then press the numeric key above which the alpha character you want to type is printed. Because the alpha keys on a 36-key keyboard are laid out much like the letters on a telephone – generally in groups of three letters per numeric key – you need to take a few extra steps to access the alphabetic characters. The examples in this section help illustrate how to access alpha characters.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 41Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535The 36-Key KeyboardChoosing A Single Alpha CharacterThe examples below illustrate how to access A, B and C, all of which are printed in orange characters above the numeric key, <2>.To choose the letter ‘a’:• Press the <ORANGE> key, and press the numeric key <2>.To choose the letter ‘b’:• Press the <ORANGE> key twice to lock it ‘on’, and press <2> twice.• Press the <ORANGE> key again to unlock or turn it off.To choose the letter ‘c’:• Press the <ORANGE> key twice to lock it ‘on’.• Press <2> three times, and then • Press the <ORANGE> key again to unlock or turn it off.Creating Uppercase LettersTo display a capital letter:• Press the <ORANGE> key and then the <SHIFT> key before typing the alpha character.Choosing More Than One Alpha Character From The Same KeyIf you need to choose more than one alpha character from a single key, you’ll need to press the ‘Accept’ key between alpha selections. The ‘Accept’ key is presented as an arrow ⇒ symbol above the ‘0’ (zero) key. Pressing this key signals the 7535 to display the alpha character you’ve chosen and await the next selection from the same key. For example, suppose you want to type the letters ‘a’,‘b’ and ‘c’. These letters are all accessible from the numeric key, <2>.To type the letter ‘a’:• Press the <ORANGE> key twice to lock it ‘on’, and then press the numeric key, <2>.• Press the ‘Accept’ key < ⇒> to indicate that the letter ‘a’ should be accepted and that another letter from the same key will be chosen.

The < ⇒>key is only required when you are choosing more than one alpha character from the same key – e.g., ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ from the <2> key. Suppose you want to type the letters ‘a’,‘d’ and ‘g’. These alpha characters are accessed from the numeric keys <2>, <3> and <4>.• With the <ORANGE> key locked ‘on’ (press twice), press <2> to type the letter ‘a’.• Press <3> to type ‘d’, and press <4> to type the letter ‘g’.• To end alpha selection, press the <ORANGE> key a third time to unlock it.3.4.5 The Keypad BacklightThe intensity of the keypad backlight and the conditions under which this backlight is activated can be configured using the Keyboard icon in the Windows CE Control Panel.The behaviour of the keypad backlight is tailored in the Keyboard Properties dialogue box. Refer to “Keyboard Backlight” on page 81 for details about this option.Note: Keep in mind that this option may be restricted to supervisory use only.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 43Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535The Display3.5 The Display7535s are equipped with display backlighting to improve character visibility in low light conditions. The unit switches on when a key is pressed and the ambient light is below the set threshold. A light sensor on the front of the hand-held determines the ambient light level. On some displays, the contrast can also be adjusted to further improve character visibility.3.5.1 Adjusting The Display BacklightThe behaviour of the display backlight – the ambient light threshold below which the backlight will become active and the intensity of the backlight – can be specified in the Display Properties dialogue box in the Windows CE Control Panel.Note: Refer to “Display Backlight” on page 77 for details about the Display Properties dialogue box.3.5.2 Adjusting The Contrast On Monochrome DisplaysNote: In addition to the manual adjustments described in this section, the dis-play contrast can also be adjusted using the Windows CE Control Panel.

In addition, review “Scan LED Indicators” on page 52 to better understand how to interpret whether or not a bar code has been successfully scanned. Finally, “Troubleshooting” on page 52 provides some helpful suggestions should the scan fail.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 51Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Warnings3.7.1 WarningsFor your own safety, it is critical that you comply with the following warnings:1. Do not look into the laser beam or point the beam at people or animals.2. CAUTION – Using controls or adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.3. CAUTION – The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.4. This product contains a laser scanner that emits less than 1.0 mW average radiant power at a wavelength of 650 or 680 nm. This product complies with 21 CFR 1040.10, 1040.11 and DIN EN 60825: July 1993, and is classified as a Class 2 laser product. The SE12xxALR has an average radiated power of 1.5 mW.3.7.2 Scanning TechniquesNote: The scanning techniques described here apply to internal and external scanners.• Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the bar code.Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this position, light can reflect back into the scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful decode.• Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D or 2D scanner, make certain that the scan beam crosses every bar and space on the bar code, including the margins on either end of the symbol.If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red, oval shaped framing mark is centered within the bar code you want to scan.• Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.• Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are close together.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Scan LED Indicators52 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual3.7.3 Scan LED IndicatorsThe 7535 scanner LED (the lower-left LED) indicates whether or not your scan is successful. The LED behaves as follows:• Scan In Progress: scan LED displays solid red colour.• Successful Scan: scan LED displays solid green colour and turns off when the scan is ended.• Unsuccessful scan: scan LED flashes red.A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam is active, the onscreen message states – SCANNING. If the scan is successful, the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger) is released.3.7.4 TroubleshootingIf the scanner is not working, investigate the following:• Is the 7535 on?• Check that the bar code symbology being scanned is enabled for the 7535 you are using. Check any other parameters that affect the scanning proce-dure or the bar code.• Check the bar code to make sure it is not damaged. Try scanning a different bar code to verify that the problem is not with the bar code.• Check that the bar code is within the proper range.• Does the hand-held display the warning without scanning? This suggests a hardware problem in the 7535.• Is the laser beam scanning across the bar code? • Once the scan beam has stopped, check the scanner window for dirt or fogging.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 53Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners3.7.5 Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners• Turn the 7535 on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.Important: If an aiming dot is available on the installed scanner, the dot will be enabled for a configurable time period (including off), after which normal scanning begins. Refer to “Dot Time” on page 136 for details. Double-clicking the trigger will override the aiming delay and initiate an immediate scan. Note that the aiming dot is standard on long-range and high visibility internal scanners.• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a warning indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six seconds have elapsed. 3.7.6 Operating Internal PDF Laser ScannersThis scanner decodes PDF417 two-dimensional bar codes.• Turn the 7535 on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. The beam expands into a rectangle covering the bar code to properly scan it. The scan beam and a warning indicator are visible until a successful decode is achieved or three seconds have elapsed.3.7.7 Operating Internal Two Dimensional (2D) Imager ScannersAn imager scanner takes a snap shot of a single bar code or multiple bar codes (at one time). It can find a bar code regardless of its orientation – that is, even a bar code printed at a 45 degree angle to the 7535 will be decoded successfully. Because imager scanners generally have a shorter depth of field than laser scanners, some practise may be required to find the optimal distance from the types of bar codes being scanned. Although the imager includes illumination LEDs, ambient light will help the imager decode the bar codes, especially if the bar code is far from the 7535. • Turn the 7535 computer on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals54 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual• When the scan button or trigger is pressed, a red, oval shaped light (the framing marker) is displayed. Centre the framing marker in the field – either in the centre of the bar code you want to scan or in the centre of the area in which multiple bar codes are to be scanned.Illumination LEDs will flash and a picture of the bar code(s) is taken.3.8 Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered PeripheralsTethered peripherals such as scanners and printers connect to the hand-held computer with a quick release, circular connector. When a peripheral is connected to the hand-held, the 7535 detects the peripheral and loads the necessary drivers for it. An icon in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen provides a visual representation of the peripheral and indicates that it is ready for operation.To attach the peripheral to the round, tether port on the side of the 7535:• Insert the barrel of the plug into the tether port and rotate slowly until it clicks into place. The red dot on the port and on the connector should be aligned.Figure 3.9 Attaching The Cable To The Tether Port
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 55Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run TimeTo remove the peripheral:•Grasp the shell of the plug, and pull it back gently to unlock and release the connector. Figure 3.10 Disconnecting The Tether CableImportant: Never attempt to disconnect a peripheral by pulling the connector by the wire. The connector is locked into place and can only be unlocked and removed by pulling back the plug shell.3.9 Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run TimeUnder normal operating conditions, the battery lasts for a full 8-hour shift. As Lithium-Ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally considered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original capacity remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the 7535 at temperature extremes will shorten the battery life. Lithium-Ion batteries do not require conditioning cycles and the 7535 battery system (including chargers) requires no user interaction to maintain peak performance.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time56 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualTo maximize the run time of your batteries, consider the following:• The display backlight is the largest drain on the battery. Try to keep its brightness as low as possible.• The hand-held is ‘event’ driven – that is, when the unit is not in use, it reverts to sleep mode (even when it appears to be running), saving battery power. Events include a key press, touchscreen taps and scan triggers. Power consumption is reduced if you avoid unnecessary events, and allow the unit to sleep as much as possible.• The 7535 battery is a ‘smart battery’ with built-in intelligence. The taskbar battery icon is a linear gauge used to estimate the remaining run time of the battery. It is important to note that the battery capacity icon displays quarter percentages of nominal capacity (the capacity of a new battery). An aged battery, even when fully charged, shows somewhat less capacity than nominal.Double-tapping on the battery icon displays a dialogue box that provides detailed information about the battery status and performance. If the remaining capacity indication seems inaccurate, the battery may need recal-ibration. Recalibration requires that the battery be fully charged, discharged and then charged again before use. If the battery is fully discharged and charged on a regular basis, recalibration should not be necessary.• When the hand-held is switched off, it goes into a low-power, suspend state but continues to draw a small amount of power from the battery. This should not be an issue unless the unit is left in suspend state for more than a week – in this case, the battery should be removed.• Batteries left for durations of more than one or two months should be fully charged, discharged and then charged again before use. This recalibrates the gas gauge and allows the internal electronics to determine the actual capacity of the battery.• The hand-held can determine when the useful life of the battery has expired and will notify the user. Chargers may reject batteries that have exceeded their lifespan.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 57Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535Monitoring The Network Connection3.10 Monitoring The Network ConnectionIf your hand-held is equipped with a wireless LAN radio, it will typically associate with the nearest access point. The radio signal quality meter in the taskbar indicates the relative strength of the communication link. To access the radio signal icon from the keyboard:• Press <BLUE> <0> to display the System Menu.• Choose System Tray from the menu.• Use the <LEFT> and <RIGHT> arrow keys to highlight the radio signal icon in the taskbar.• Press <ENTER> to display the radio quality dialogue box.If you have a touchscreen:• Tap on the radio icon in the taskbar to display the radio quality dialogue box.Note: Moving in and out of the radio coverage area can have varying effects on a network session. At times, you may need to renew your connection by logging in again.3.11 Uploading Data In A Docking StationThe Combo Docking and Quad Docking peripherals allow the 7535 to link to an Ethernet network. They are typically used to upload transaction data to a server computer when a radio link in not available. When a 7535 is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the taskbar at the bottom of the 7535 screen. The 7535 also detects the presence of the Ethernet network. Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in your 7535 before preforming data uploads.
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535General Maintenance58 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual3.12 General Maintenance3.12.1 Caring For The TouchscreenThe top of the touchscreen is a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a conductive coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive coating.The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:• mustard,• sodium hydroxide,• concentrated caustic solutions,• benzyl alcohol, and• concentrated miner acids.If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable screen protector (PN 1010029). These covers reduce the clarity of the display slightly but will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they become scratched and abraded, they are easily removed and replaced.Note: If the environment is excessively harsh, consider using a tempered glass version of the 7535.3.12.2 Cleaning The 7535Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean.•Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.• Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. The 7535 has a plastic case that is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.• To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.

Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 61Chapter 4: Working With Windows CENavigating In Windows CE And Applications4.1 Navigating In Windows CE And ApplicationsGraphic user interfaces like Windows CE for portable devices and desktop Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ navigation. An equivalent keyboard shortcut is also available for every ‘point and click’ action.Windows CE supports the same ‘point and click’ user interface and keyboard shortcuts as desktop Windows with one difference – the ‘point and click’ action is accomplished using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed using any combination of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping (provided your 7535 is equipped with a touchscreen).4.1.1 Navigating Using A Touchscreen And StylusNote: If the touch screen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the touchscreen may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The Touch-screen” on page 44.A touchscreen is an optional feature. A 7535 equipped with a touchscreen has a stylus – a pointing tool that looks like a pen – stored in a slot at the top of the 7535. The stylus is used to select objects on the touchscreen.Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus (pen) supplied with your 7535.To open a file, launch an applet or open a folder:• Double-tap the stylus on the appropriate icon.4.1.2 Navigating Using The KeyboardIf your 7535 has a standard screen (rather than a touchscreen), choosing icons and navigating dialogue boxes, displaying the desktop, and so on requires keyboard input. If your unit has already been fully configured and your application is launched at startup, you’ll have little need for keyboard navigation.

Chapter 5: ConfigurationPower Saving Schemes84 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual5.3.3.2 Power Saving Schemes• In the Power Properties dialogue box, open the Schemes tab.Figure 5.12 Power Scheme PropertiesNote: The Power Properties Scheme settings are cumulative – that is, to determine when the 7535 enters ‘Suspend’ state, the unit waits for the ‘User Idle’ state to elapse, followed by the ‘System Idle’ state and then, once the ‘Suspend’ state time has elapsed, ‘Suspend’ state is activated.When setting the User Idle State,System Idle State and Suspend State, keep the following in mind. Because the 7535 ‘wakes up’ from the User Idle and System Idle states almost instantaneously following any user input (keypress, trigger press, screen tap), the timeouts you set will not slow user activity. The sum of the User Idle,System Idle and Suspend timeouts should be selected carefully since the 7535 will go to sleep (appear off) when this time has elapsed, saving battery power. Psion Teklogix recommends starting with a total of 10 minutes for this timeout. Setting any of these timeouts to ‘Never’ will adversely affect the battery run time. To further reduce power consumption, carefully consider the duration of time that the display backlight is ‘on’ (see “Display Backlight” on page 77).Power SchemeThis dropdown menu allows you to identify whether the unit is using AC Power or Battery Power.User Idle StateUser Idle means that the 7535 is not receiving any user input including activities like a key touch, a scan, and so on – any user initiated activity. When the time selected in the ‘Switch state to User Idle’ menu elapses, the hand-held enters a User Idle state and begins to monitor the time specified in the System Idle state menu.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 85Chapter 5: ConfigurationCalibrating The TouchscreenSystem Idle StateSystem activity includes computer activity such as serial data, an activity initiated by an application, and so on – any activity not executed by the user. System Idle is activated when the time specified in the ‘Switch state to User Idle’ and the ‘Switch state to System Idle’ menu have elapsed without any activity. The 7535 begins to monitor the Suspend field.Suspend StateOnce the time specified in the User Idle and the System Idle fields have elapsed, the 7535 begins to count down the time specified in the ‘Switch state to Suspend’. When the time in the Suspend field elapses, the unit enters Suspend state. In Suspend state, the 7535 CPU enters a sleep state and all peripherals are powered down to minimize power consumption. The state of the device (RAM contents) is preserved. Pressing <ENTER> or the <SCAN> button wakes the system from suspend state. When the 7535 is in suspend state, the network connection is broken. To resume, you must re-establish the network connection.5.3.4 Calibrating The TouchscreenNote: Touchscreen calibration may not be enabled on your unit. If your screen appears to require recalibration, contact your supervisor.Touchscreens rarely require recalibration. However, if your touchscreen has never been calibrated or if you find that the stylus pointer is not accurate when you tap on an item, follow the directions below.• In the Control Panel, select the Stylus icon to display the Stylus Properties window.Figure 5.13 Stylus Icon

Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 87Chapter 5: ConfigurationScanner Options5.5.1 Scanner OptionsVerifyThe value entered for this parameter determines the number of correct additional decodes required after the initial decode before a bar code is accepted. Higher values significantly increase the time it takes to decode a bar code but also improve the reliability of the decoded bar code.SecurityThis parameter controls the tolerance for decoding edge-to-edge bar codes (Code 93, Code 128, UPC/EAN). Lower values have a lower tolerance for misreads, but they also increase the time it takes to decode the bar code. The default value of 30 is generally a good compromise setting.Short CodeWhen enabled (√), this parameter allows scanning of short I 2 of 5 bar codes (2 characters). When disabled, these short bar codes are rejected.Enabling “Short Code” may reduce the robustness of the decoding since the 7535 must decode more potential bar codes; it is therefore not recommended for general-purpose bar codes with 4 or more characters.Double Click OptionsClick TimeNote: This parameter only affects 7535s using scanners with aiming dot capa-bility.This parameter controls the maximum gap time (in milliseconds) for a double-click. If the time between the first and second clicks of the scanner trigger is within this time, it is considered a double-click. The allowable range is 0 to 1000. A value of zero disables this feature.A double-click produces different results depending on whether or not a value is assigned in the “Click Data” parameter. When a value is not assigned for the “Click Data”, double-clicking the scanner trigger overrides the target dot delay set in the “Dot Time” parameter and initiates a normal scan sweep. If a value is assigned for the “Click Data” parameter, double-clicking the scanner trigger inserts the “Click Data” value rather than initiating a scan.
Chapter 5: ConfigurationScanner Options88 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualClick DataFor both integrated and external scanners, this parameter determines which character is sent to the application installed in your 7535 following a double-click. Enter the ASCII value of the character desired from 0 to 255. You can also press the <LEFT> or <RIGHT> arrow keys to scroll through a set of ASCII characters not available from the keyboard.Display OptionsIndicatorWhen this parameter is enabled (√), the laser warning logo appears on the display whenever the scanner is activated.ResultWhen this parameter is enabled (√), the type of bar code and the result of the scan appear on the screen. Note that this information is only displayed after a successful decode and is visible only while the scanner trigger is pressed. When the trigger is released, this information is cleared from the screen.Dot TimeThe value selected for “Dot Time” determines how long the targeting dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. The allowable values are: 0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 seconds. A value of 0 (zero)disables the target dot.Result TimeThe value assigned to the “Result Time” parameter determines how long the scan results of a successful scan are displayed on the screen. Time is measured in seconds, and a value of “0” (zero) disables the parameter.Note: To remove the scan result from the screen before the “Result Time” has expired, perform an unsuccessful scan.

The combination of an escape character and the next character is converted to an equivalent ASCII character.Include ChkIf this parameter is enabled (√), the check digit is included with the decoded bar code data.AIAG StripIf this parameter is enabled (√), the AIAG data identifier is removed from each decoded Code 39 label. The data identifier occurs in the first position next to the Code 39 start character. It can be a single alphabetic character or a series of numeric digits followed by an alphabetic character. This identifier defines the general category or specific use of the data contained in the rest of the bar code.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 91Chapter 5: ConfigurationCode 39 SettingsNote: If your unit is operating with the Psion Teklogix TESS application, this parameter should not be used in conjunction with the TESS AIAG feature. This is because the 7535 hand-held performs the strip function before it processes the data through the AIAG feature; if the prefix is stripped, the data is not identified as AIAG.Err AcceptIf the “Err Accept” and “AIAG Strip” parameters are enabled (√), all label data without an AIAG identifier character is accepted. If the “Err Accept” parameter is disabled and the “AIAG Strip” parameter is enabled (√), the label data is not accepted.Mod ChksMod 43 ChkIf this parameter is enabled (√), the Mod 43 check digit is calculated.Mod 10 ChkIf this parameter is enabled (√), the Mod 10 check digit is calculated.NoneIf you choose ‘None’, a check is not executed.Size/CharsFigure 5.18 Size And Character Settings
Chapter 5: ConfigurationCode 39 Settings92 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualField SizeThe field size is the length of the field after the first character is stripped and the prefix and suffix characters are added. If the field size is non-zero, only bar codes of that length are passed through.Prefix CharThis character, if non-zero, is added before a successfully decoded bar code. Enter the ASCII decimal equivalent of this character. Enter a value of 0 (zero) if no prefix is to be added.Suffix CharThis character, if non-zero, is added after a successfully decoded bar code. Enter the ASCII decimal equivalent of this character. Enter a value of 0 (zero) if no suffix is to be added.Strip LeadingThis parameter determines the number of characters that will be removed from the beginning of the bar code before the prefix character is added.Notes: 1. The appended character is treated as any other keyboard character. For example, if <BKSP> is pressed, the usual action for that key is performed. If your unit is operating with the Psion Teklogix ANSI emulation application, the 7535 transmits the escape sequence asso-ciated with the function immediately after the bar code data.2. For Code 39 bar codes, the “AIAG Strip” is performed before the “Strip Leading”.Strip TrailingThe value entered in this parameter determines the number of characters that will be removed from the end of the bar code before the suffix character is added.

Enter the ASCII decimal equivalent of this character. Enter a value of 0 (zero) if no suffix is to be added.Strip LeadingThis parameter determines the number of characters that will be removed from the beginning of the bar code before the prefix character is added.Note: 1.The appended character is treated as any other keyboard character. For example, if <BKSP> is pressed, the usual action for that key is per-formed. If your 7535 is operating with the Psion Teklogix ANSI emulation application, the hand-held transmits the escape sequence associated with the function immediately after the bar code data.Strip TrailingThe value entered in this parameter determines the number of characters that will be removed from the end of the bar code before the suffix character is added.

Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 123Chapter 6: Tekterm Application<DEL> Key Behaviour In TESS6.5.5.2 <DEL> Key Behaviour In TESSField mode• In a left justified field, the <DEL> key erases all characters in the field and places the cursor in the left most position of that field. • In a right justified field, the <DEL> key erases all characters in the field and places the cursor in the right most position of that field. • If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response message.Replace mode• In both left and right justified fields, the <DEL> key erases charac-ters beginning from the current cursor position to the end of the field. The cursor remains in the same position in the field. • If the <DEL> key is pressed while cursor is in the right most position in the field, the 7535 emits a keyboard error beep. • If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response message.Insert mode• In both left and right justified fields, the <DEL> key erases the characters from one character position to right of the cursor to the end of the field. • If the <DEL> key is pressed while the cursor is in the right most position in the field, the 7535 emits a keyboard error beep. • If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response message.Fcursor mode • Refer to “Field Mode” at the beginning of this table. The <DEL> key operates in the same manner in “Fcursor mode” as it does in “Field mode”.
Chapter 6: Tekterm Application<BKSP> Key Behaviour In TESS124 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual6.5.5.3 <BKSP> Key Behaviour In TESSField mode• In a left justified field, the <BKSP> key erases the character directly to the left of the cursor and then moves the cursor one position to the left. When the last character in the field is deleted, the field displays the value that it contained before it was modified, and the field is opened.• In a right justified field, the <BKSP> key erases the character on which the cursor is positioned and shifts the remaining characters to the right by one position. When the last character in the field is deleted, the field displays the value that it contained before it was modified, and the field is opened. • If the <BKSP> key is pressed when the field is empty, the 7535 emits a keyboard error beep.• The <BKSP> key does not delete data pre-filled by the host applica-tion.• If the <BKSP> key is pressed in a field that has not been modified, the 7535 emits a keyboard error beep. • If data is entered into a field and is then deleted before the field is completed, the field remains unmodified when the cursor leaves the field or when the screen is transmitted. Replace mode• In a left justified field, the <BKSP> key erases the character on which the cursor is positioned unless it is one position to the right of the last character in the string; in this case, the <BKSP> key erases the char-acter to the left of the cursor.• In a right justified field, the <BKSP> key erases the character on which the cursor is positioned. The remaining characters are then shifted to the left of the cursor, and the cursor is shifted to the right by one position.• If the <BKSP> key is pressed while the cursor is in the right-most character position of the field, the cursor does not shift to the left when that character is erased; it remains in the right most position in the field.• When the last character in a field is erased, the field remains empty – that is, any pre-filled data is not displayed. Pressing the <BKSP> key in the empty field results in a keyboard error beep.• The <BKSP> key can delete data pre-filled by the host application. • If data is entered in a field and is then deleted before the field is com-pleted, the field remains unmodified when the cursor leaves the field or when the screen is transmitted.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 125Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationTESS Status Message6.5.6 TESS Status Message• Press <CTRL> <S> to continuously display the status message in the lower left corner of the screen. • Press <CTRL> <W> to make this message appear only when the 7535 locks. The message should look similar to the sample below:V6.0 fld 0.6“V6.0” is the TESS version number. “fld” indicates that TESS is currently in fieldmode. Insert and replace mode are represented as “ins” and “rep” respectively. The number “0.6” indicates the response time of the last transmission in seconds. Press <CTRL> <T> to display the unit number instead of the TESS version number.Insert mode• In a left justified field, the <BKSP> function erases the character on which the cursor is positioned, unless it is at the right end of the char-acter string; in this case, it erases the character to the left of the cursor. When the last character in a field is erased, the field remains empty, and any further <BKSP> functions in the empty field result in a key-board error beep. • In a right justified field, the <BKSP> function erases the character that is to the right of the cursor and then shifts the data remaining to the right one position. • If the <BKSP> key is pressed while the cursor is in the right-most character position of that field, the cursor does not shift to the left when that character is erased; it remains in the right-most position in the field.• When the last character in a field is erased, the field remains empty – i.e. any pre-filled data is not displayed. Pressing the BKSP key in the empty field sounds a keyboard error beep. • The <BKSP> key can delete data pre-filled by the host application. • If data is entered into a field and then deleted before the field is com-pleted, the field remains unmodified when the cursor leaves the field or when the screen is transmitted.Fcursor mode • Refer to “Field Mode” at the beginning of this table. The <BKSP> key operates in exactly the same manner in “Fcursor mode” as it does in “Field mode”.
Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationLock Messages126 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual6.5.7 Lock MessagesWhen information is transmitted to the host computer, the keyboard locks to prevent further data entry until the 7535 receives a reply. A locked state isindicated by either “LOCK-B” (base) or “LOCK-H” (host) in the lower left corner of the display.When the reply is received by the 7535, the lock message disappears and the keyboard can be used again.6.5.8 Control CommandsA group of <CTRL> key commands can be used within TESS to dictate how the 7535 will operate under a variety of conditions.• <CTRL> <P> – Reprints the last print page sent from the host. This key combination will not print anything if a print page from the host was not previously received at the 7535 hand-held.• <CTRL> <S> – Displays the 7535 status continuously. Below is a sample status line as it might appear at the bottom of your screen:Lock-B/Lock-H fld enh “application name”• <CTRL> <W> – Displays the 7535 status when the unit is in “Lock B” or “Lock H” mode. The status line would be similar to the sample above.• <CTRL><T> – Displays the 7535 status with the terminal number instead of the name.Lock-B/Lock-H rep “terminal nn”• <CTRL> <H> – Displays a menu of available hosts.6.5.9 Resetting A TESS SessionResetting a TESS session requires that <CTRL> C be pressed three times within a two second period to generate the “RESET – User request” message.• Press and hold down the <CTRL> key, and press the <C> key three times within a two second period.• Press <ENTER>.This procedure restarts the TESS session without affecting the rest of the 7535.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 127Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationThe Local Menu6.5.10 The Local MenuThe host can store local procedures in the 7535 for use when the unit is off-line. A menu of these procedures appears whenever <CTRL> <L> is pressed (see Figure 6.3).• Press the function key corresponding to the procedure you want to perform. Local procedures will not function when the “Lcl Process” and “Queuing” parameters are disabled (see “Lcl Process – Save on Reset” on page 183 and “Queuing” on page 183).Although using local procedures eliminates the advantages of an on-line 7535, it allows work to continue when the host is unavailable. The “LOCK-B/H” messages are replaced with “NEXT-B/H” in this mode.Figure 6.3 Local Menu6.5.11 Selecting Another Host Computer• Press <CTRL> <H> or <F9> from the local menu to display a menu of available hosts. This menu appears only when more than one host is available.Figure 6.4 Select Host ScreenNote: This feature will not function when the “Lcl Process” and “Queuing” parameters are disabled (see “Lcl Process – Save on Reset” on page 183 and “Queuing” on page 183).LOCAL MENUF1 -F2 -F3 -F4 -F5 -F6 -F7 -F8 -F9 - Select HostSelect Host: ......F1 - Host 1 F2 - Host 2
Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationQueuing Mode128 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual6.5.12 Queuing ModeIn some applications, queuing mode can decrease the computer lock time. In queuing mode, the host computer may send several pages to a 7535 without waiting for a response. These pages are stored in a queue within the 7535 hand-held. The operator completes the entries on the first page and then, presses a function key.The 7535 simultaneously transmits to the host and displays the next page in the queue. The computer does not lock, allowing the operator to enter data on the next page immediately. This continues as long as there are pages in the queue.Queuing mode is used for repetitive tasks, and the queued screens look identical. The 7535 displays a “Next” message indicating that a new page is on the display. “Next” messages also contain information about radio communications: “NEXT-B” indicates that the 7535 has data to transmit to the base station. “NEXT-H” indicates that the base station has acknowledged a transmission. Unlike lock messages, “Next” messages do not lock the keyboard. Keying is allowed while “Next” messages are displayed.While queuing mode may improve apparent response time, it can present difficulties to hosts that are operating in real time. It should only be used after careful consideration of the host environment. The 7535 must be configured for queuing mode (see the “Queuing” parameter on page 183). Additional information on queuing can be found in the TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem) Manual.6.6 ANSI EmulationThe Psion Teklogix 7535 in ANSI mode operates like most other ANSI terminals. This means software that supports ANSI terminals requires little or no changes.6.6.1 ConfigurationTo configure the 7535 for ANSI mode, the “Name” and “Type” of session – in this case, ANSI – must be specified in the Applications menu. This menu is described in the section titled, “Applications” on page 160.Next, a unique number must be assigned using the “Terminal #” parameter. This number should be unique across the entire system – that is, each 7535 and each application session in each 7535 across your system must have a unique number assigned. This parameter is described in the section titled “ANSI Settings” on page 161.Once the 7535 is configured, an ANSI operation can be selected from the startup “Display Menu”.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 129Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationSending Data To The Host6.6.2 Sending Data To The Host7535 hand-helds running ANSI sessions transmit characters to the host as soon as they are typed. The 7535 provides parameters that determine when the computer transmits characters to the host.The 7535 can be configured to transmit after a number of characters are typed in (the “Xmit Count” parameter) or after some time has elapsed (the “Xmit Wait” parameter), or both. This reduces overhead on the radio link and improves response time. See page 167 for more information about these parameters.You can also determine whether the 7535 transmits immediately after the <ENTER> key, an arrow key, or a function key is pressed. The 7535 computer also responds immediately to the device attribute requests “CSIc”, “CSI0c” and “ESCZ”.Note: For a more detailed description of the parameter settings for ANSI, refer to “ANSI Settings” on page 161.6.6.3 Psion Teklogix Keyboard And VT220 Equivalent KeysThe Psion Teklogix keyboard differs from most ANSI terminals.

If “Auto Radio Addr” is set to “N”, the value entered in the “Radio Address” parameter is used. (Refer to "Radio Address" in this section for details about manually assigned radio addresses.) Important: Ensure that all 7535s grouped in the system use the same addressing process – that is, if you choose to use automatic radio addressing, use this addressing process for all units operating in the same system. If you choose to assign radio addresses manually using the “Radio Address” parameter, use this process for all units in the same system.Radio AddressThe value entered in the “Radio address” parameter is used to identify the 7535 over the radio link. A unique value from 1 to 3840 must be assigned for each 7535 hand-held computer.Initial RTT (Round Trip Time)Round trip time is the elapsed time between a hand-held computer transmission and an access point acknowledgement. Each 7535 continuously adjusts the acceptable round trip time, calculating the average elapsed time over a number of transmis-sions. If an acknowledgement takes longer to receive than the average round trip time calculated, the computer will resend the transmission.

Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationRadio Parameters144 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualBecause 7535s cannot calculate an average round trip time without a number of transmissions, a starting point or “Initial Round Trip Time” is required. The com-puter uses the time assigned to the “Initial RTT” parameter as a starting value for round trip calculations. Once the 7535 begins transmitting and receiving data, this value will be adjusted to reflect the actual average round trip time between transmis-sions and acknowledgements. Protocol Type“Protocol Type” is used to identify the Ethernet packet frame type sent by the 7535. The default value – 2457 – assigned to this parameter identifies the Teklogix 802.IQ protocol Ethernet packet frame types. The “Protocol Type ID” should only be altered if the default value is already being used to specify another application Ethernet frame type.

Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 155Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationSplit Screen6.16.1 Split ScreenThis parameter allows you to split the display view so that more than one application screen can be displayed at the same time. The split screen parameters, “Type” and “View IDs”, are used to tailor the screen view for your needs. Type And View IDsThe “Type” parameter determines how a screen will be split. The 7535 supports up to four application screens. The “View IDs” parameter determines which application screens will be displayed in each pane of the split screen. “Moving Between Split Screens” on page 156 describes how to move the cursor from one split screen to the next.6.16.1.1 Splitting And Displaying ScreensBefore splitting the screen, you need to determine which applications should appear in each pane of the split screen. The available applications are listed in the main “Display Menu”. Each application listed in the “Display Menu” is preceded by a letter – for example, Parameters is preceded by an A. This letter is used in the “View IDs” string entry field to fix each pane of a split screen to a corresponding application.If you need to display the startup “Display Menu”:• Press <CTRL> <ALT><0>.To split a screen:• With the cursor on the “Type” parameter, use the <RIGHT> or <LEFT> arrow key to scroll through the types of split screens available.The vertical and horizontal lines displayed at the “Type” parameter indicate how the screen will be split – for example, in the sample screen on page 157, the vertical lines indicate the screen will be vertically split into two segments. The screen can also be split horizontally 3 ways or 4 ways.Type 2 Way |||View IDs A04 Split screen
Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationMoving Between Split Screens156 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualOnce you’ve indicated how you want to split the screen in the “Type” parameter:• Use the <DOWN> arrow key to move the cursor to the “View IDs” parameter.• For each application you want to display, type the letter corresponding to the application. For example, suppose you want to split the screen into two vertical segments with the Parameters menu in the left pane of the screen and aTESS session in the right pane. In the “Display Menu”, the letter Arepresents “Parameters” and B represents “TESS”. The “Type” and “View ID” values would be represented as follows:• Press <ENTER>.To display the split screen on the 7535:• Press <CTRL> <DOWN> arrow.6.16.1.2 Moving Between Split ScreensTo move the cursor from one pane in a split screen to the next:• Press <CTRL> <RIGHT> or <LEFT>. The cursor moves in order from the left-most pane to the right and from the top-most pane to the bottom.6.16.1.3 Toggling Between Full & Split ScreensTo toggle between a split and full screen format:• Press <CTRL> <DOWN> arrow.The application displayed when toggling from a split to a full screen format is determined by the cursor location in the split screen. For example, if the cursor is in the pane of a split screen in which the TESS application is displayed and <CTRL> <DOWN> is pressed to display a full screen, the TESS application will be displayed in the full screen.Type 2 Way |||View IDs AB04 Split screen
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 157Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationUsing The Asterisk As A Wild Card6.16.1.4 Using The Asterisk As A Wild CardWhen a screen is split, the application displayed in each pane is fixed in the “View IDs” parameter. Using an asterisk * in the “View IDs” parameter indicates that a particular pane in the split screen is not fixed to any particular application and can be changed as required.For example, suppose you want to split the screen into two vertical segments with the left pane containing the “Parameters” menu and the right pane containing no fixed application. The “Type” and “View IDs” parameters would be completed as follows:To change the application displayed in the pane with no fixed application:• If the cursor is not currently in the pane, press <CTRL> <RIGHT> or <LEFT> arrow to move the cursor into the appropriate screen.• Press <CTRL> <ALT><0> to display the startup “Display Menu”.• Type the letter corresponding to the new application you want to display.6.16.2 Custom Characters (Unicode™)The “Custom Characters” parameter allows you to create Unicode™ characters not available directly from the keyboard, including accented characters. Unicode is a trademark of The Unicode Consortium. You can create up to 20 Unicode™ characters that will be stored in a pop-up menu accessible from any application.6.16.2.1 Creating A Unicode™ CharacterNote: You can create a Unicode™ character by pressing and holding down the <ALT> while typing the decimal value that represents the Unicode™ character you want to use. However, you will need to press <ALT> and retype the decimal value each time you want to use the special character.

However, some applications require that the <ENTER> key start a transmission from the 7535. When enabled (set to “Y”), this parameter causes the <ENTER> key to start a transmission.InsertWhen this parameter is disabled (set to “N”), it behaves in “replace” mode – a character entered at the keyboard or received from the host replaces the character at the cursor position. The cursor then advances one character position. When enabled (set to “Y”), the character entered at the keyboard or received from the host is inserted at the cursor position after shifting the characters at and following the cursor forward one position. The cursor is advanced one position. The extent of the characters affected by the shift depends on the setting of the “Edit Extent” parameter (see page 173). NewlineWhen this parameter is disabled (set to “N”), an LF character received from the host causes the cursor to move down one line in the same column. In addition, the <ENTER> key transmits a CR. When enabled (set to “Y”), an LF character received from the host causes the cursor to move to the first column of the next line. The <ENTER> key transmits both a CR and an LF.Disable kbdWhen this parameter is set to “N”, the keyboard and scanner are enabled. Setting this parameter to “Y” disables the keyboard and scanner.

Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationScan-See Sub-Menu – Mapping The Viewport196 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualThe Scan-See display is mapped to a specific area on the 7535 screen – called the viewport – and is continuously updated to reflect that portion of the screen. The Scan-See viewport is defined as follows:Anchor Line/Anchor ColumnA location on the Scan-See display – the anchor – is chosen as a reference point. Line Offset/Column OffsetA predefined displacement – the offset – is added to the location of the 7535 cursor to create a point – the pivot. This pivot is mapped to the anchor, and whatever is displayed in its vicinity is also displayed on the Scan-See.For example:•theanchor is chosen as (9,0) whereas “9” is the column and “0” is the line (on the Scan-See display)•theoffset is chosen as (4,2)• the cursor on the 7535 is currently located at (7,5)•thepivot would thus be located at (7+4, 5+2) or (11,7)• and so the area displayed on the Scan-See will be: (11–9,7–0) to (11–9+9,7–0+1) or (2,7) to (11,8). 11These computations assume that “Wraparound” (described on page 198) is disabled (set to “N”) and that “Follow Cursor” (described on page 198) is enabled (set to “Y”).

Chapter 6: Tekterm ApplicationScan-See Sub-Menu – Mapping The Viewport198 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User ManualFollow CursorWhen the “Follow Cursor” parameter is disabled (set to “N”), the cursor is always assumed to be located at the origin. Using the previous example:• the area displayed will be (4–9,2–0) to (4–9+9, 2–0+1), or, after clipping values that are negative or higher than 80: (0,2) to (4,3).WraparoundWhen “Wraparound” is enabled (set to “Y”), the Scan-See display is treated as a one-line by 20 column display, rather than 2 lines by 10 columns.PanningIf “Panning” is disabled (set to “N”), the Scan-See viewport does not move when the cursor moves one position to the right, and the pivot is still inside the Scan-See display. However, the Scan-See display is updated to reflect the changes within that viewport. If the pivot goes outside the viewport, or if the 7535 display changes without the cursor being moved, the viewport is re-synchronized to coincide the pivot with the anchor.Line ScrollingWhen “Line Scrolling” is enabled (set to “Y”), the Scan-See display is treated as two separate one line by 10 column displays. The top line always displays the previous value of the bottom line. In an application where the cursor skips from one entry field to another, the field that the cursor just entered is displayed on the top line, and the next field is displayed at the bottom. Note: When this feature is enabled (set to “Y”), the “Panning” option should be disabled to prevent updates to both lines after every keystroke BrightnessThe “Brightness” parameter controls the backlight brightness of the display. It only has an effect on Model 7000 Scan-Sees – scanners equipped with LED (light emitting diode) displays.

Auto Radio AddrIf this parameter is set to “Y”, the 7535 requests an automatically assigned radio address.Note: If ‘Auto Radio Addr’ is enabled (set to “Y”), any value assigned to the ‘Radio Address’ parameter is ignored.Radio AddressImportant: “Radio Address” only takes effect when “Cellular” is enabled (set to “Y”).The value entered in the “Radio address” parameter is used to identify the 7535 hand-held over the radio link. A unique value from 1 to 3840 must be assigned for each 7535.Initial RTT (Round Trip Time)Round trip time is the elapsed time between a 7535 hand-held computer transmis-sion and an access point acknowledgement. Each 7535 continuously adjusts the acceptable round trip time, calculating the average elapsed time over a number of transmissions. If an acknowledgement takes longer to receive than the average round trip time calculated, the 7535 will resend the transmission. Because 7535s cannot calculate an average round trip time without a number of transmissions, a starting point or “Initial Round Trip Time” is required. The 7535 uses the time assigned to the “Initial RTT” parameter as a starting value for round trip calculations. Once the 7535 begins transmitting and receiving data, this value will be adjusted to reflect the actual average round trip time between transmissions and acknowledgements.

Allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least two hours.• Do not use the charger if, after an overnight charge, any of the batteries feel warmer than the charger housing. The charger should be inspected by qualified service personnel.• Do not use the charger if any of the batteries or the charger get more than luke-warm. The equipment should be inspected by qualified personnel.7.4 ChargersNote: The full capacity of the battery may not be reached until at least 5 full charge/discharge cycles have been performed.It can take from 1.5 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The 7535’s intelligent charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity.Important: To preserve battery integrity, the charger will proceed with a charge only when the battery temperature falls between 0˚ C and 39˚ C (32˚ F to 102˚ F). If the battery is too hot or cold, the battery status LED flashes yellow and the charge is suspended.7.5 Gang ChargerThe gang charger is designed to charge up to six 7535 Lithium-Ion batteries at one time. Your charger is shipped with the appropriate IEC mains power cord. If the supplied power cord is incorrect for your country, contact Psion Teklogix for assistance (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices).7.5.1 InstallationThe gang charger can be wall mounted using the wall mount kit – PN TBD – or it can be operated on a flat surface. Install the charger in an area that is free from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants. The ambient temperature must be in the range 0˚ C to 39˚ C (32˚ F to 102˚ F). The charger will not charge batteries outside of this temperature range. For maximum performance, it is recommended that the charger be operated at room temperature – a temperature range between18˚ C to 25˚ C (64˚ F to 77˚ F).
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 211Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesOperator ControlsThe charger can consume up to 2A @ 120VAC or 1A @ 240VAC. Check to ensure the mains circuit supplying the charger is adequate for this loading (especially if several chargers are being powered from the same circuit). After unpacking the unit:• Visually check the charger for damage. • Install the IEC power cord and apply power. A green indicator in the lower-right lights to indicate power is present. All charge indicators flash momentarily at powerup to indicate that the charger is ready for operation.If you choose to wall mount the charger, follow the instructions packaged with the mounting bracket kit. Be sure to locate the charger in a area where there is no risk of injury to persons walking in the vicinity.7.5.2 Operator ControlsThe gang charger does not have operator controls or a power switch. 7.5.3 Charge IndicatorsEach battery charge slot is equipped with a tri-coloured LED to indicate the charge status of the battery. When 7535 batteries are inserted in the charger, the colour and behaviour of the LEDs associated with the charge wells in use indicate the status of the charge.

Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesCharging Batteries212 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual7.5.4 Charging Batteries• Install the battery with the battery contacts facing the charger. Slide the battery between the guide rails until it lightly latches in place. The LED directly below the slot in which a battery is inserted lights up immediately. A solid yellow LED indicates that the battery is being charged. If the battery temperature is outside 0˚ C to 39˚ C (32˚ F to 102˚ F), the LED flashes yellow until the temperature is acceptable. A fully discharged battery will normally take between 1.5 and 4 hours to charge. When the battery charge reaches 75%, the indicator flashesgreen. At full capacity, it turns solid green.When the battery is fully charged, the charger stops applying power; the battery cannot be overcharged if left in the charger slot. The 75% charge indicator is handy if you need a quick recharge – it often occurs after less than an hour.7.5.5 Troubleshooting7.5.5.1 Excessive Charge DurationThe charger is equipped with a recalibration function – a function that fully discharges and then fully recharges the battery. This process is necessary to recalibrate the battery capacity gauge internal to the battery. The charger attempts recalibration when: • the battery capacity is at less than 30%, and • the battery has undergone more than 40 partial charge cycles since the last full discharge.A complete battery discharge takes between 1.5 and 4 hours to complete. When in discharge mode, the LED indicator flashes yellow. The recalibration function extends the charge time by up to 2 hours. 7.5.5.2 Indicator Flashing RedIf the indicator flashes red:• Remove all batteries and disconnect the mains power cable. • Wait at least 20 seconds, and then plug the cable in again.If any of the charge slot LEDs continue to flash red, the charger is defective and requires service. If all indicators are flashing red, there is a power supply problem and the charger requires service.

With the network connected and this application loaded, the combo dock is ready for use.7.7.2 Using The Combo Dock• Gently slide the 7535 into the cradle portion of the combo dock until lightly latched. The 7535 detects combo dock and displays the appropriate icon – .The battery charge LED (lower-right LED) on the 7535 lights up to show it has external power and may start charging the battery.Interaction with the 7535 while in the combo dock is a function of the user application software used to communicate with the host network.7.7.3 Network AccessThe combo dock includes a dedicated USB to Ethernet converter. This USB converter appears as a USB slave to the 7535 USB host controller. The 7535 automatically detects insertion into a combo dock and loads the appropriate drivers to communicate with the USB/Ethernet converter.See “Network Addressing” on page 218 for details about network addressing issues with the combo dock.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 217Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesTroubleshooting7.7.4 TroubleshootingTroubleshooting issues for the combo dock are identical to those of the quad dock. Refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 219 for helpful tips.7.8 Quad DockThe Quad Dock permits each of four docked 7535 hand-helds to communicate with a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network at greater than 2Mbps. It also provides sufficientpower to operate and fast charge the batteries the 7535s. 7.8.1 InstallationThe quad dock should be located away from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants. The ambient temperature must fall between 0˚ C to 39 ˚C (32˚ F to 102˚ F). The 7535 internal charger will not charge batteries outside of this temperature range. For maximum performance, it is recommended that the quad dock be operated at room temperature – from 18˚ C to 25˚ C (64˚ F to 77˚ F).The quad dock can consume up to 3A @ 120VAC or 1.5A @ 240VAC. Ensure that the mains circuit supplying the unit is adequate, especially if several docks are being powered from the same circuit. After unpacking the unit:• Visually inspect the unit for any damage. • Install the IEC power cord and apply power. A green indicator in the lower-right corner of the front panel lights up to indicate that power is present. • Attach a CAT5 RJ45 network patch cable (supplied) between your network and the RJ45 jack on the rear of the dock. A green LED is illuminated next to the RJ45 connector when a valid network link is established.A user application must be loaded onto each 7535 that utilizes the quad dock for communication. When the network is connected and this application is loaded, the quad dock is ready for use.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesIndicators And Controls218 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual7.8.2 Indicators And ControlsThe quad dock has no user controls. It is equipped with a power indicator LED and RJ45 link and traffic indicator LEDs. When a valid network link is established, a green LED is illuminated next to the RJ45 connector.7.8.3 Using The Quad Dock• Gently slide the 7535 into the cradle portion of the quad dock until lightly latched.The 7535 detects that it is in a quad dock and displays the appropriate icon in the taskbar – . The battery charge LED on the 7535 lights up to show it has external power and may start charging the battery.Interaction with the 7535 while in the quad dock is a function of the user application software used to communicate with the host network.7.8.4 Network AccessThe quad dock includes a four port 10/100 Ethernet hub. Each of the four downstream ports are connected to dedicated USB-to-Ethernet converters. These USB converters appear as USB slaves to the 7535 USB host controller. The 7535 automatically detects insertion into a quad dock and loads the appropriate drivers to communicate with the USB/Ethernet converters.7.8.4.1 Network AddressingAlthough the USB converters have fixed Ethernet MAC addresses, there is generally no correlation between these addresses and a specific 7535 hand-held. The host application uses a standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a 7535 on the network. If a link is established between a 7535 and a host, the application on the host and on the 7535 must have a recovery mechanism in the event that the 7535 is removed from the dock and the link is interrupted.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 219Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesBattery Charging7.8.5 Battery ChargingThe quad dock supplies DC power to enable the 7535 internal fast charger. Charge status is displayed on the 7535 charge LED (see “Charge LEDs” on page 46). Battery charging continues whether the 7535 is switched on or off.Normally, it takes between 1.5 and 4 hours to fully charge the 7535 internal battery.7.8.6 TroubleshootingThe indicators, applications and drivers required to use and monitor the docking station are installed on the 7535 – no indicators or applications are present on the docking station itself.7.8.6.1 Network Link UnsuccessfulIf a network link fails, the 7535 application alerts the operator that the link was unsuccessful.7.8.6.2 7535 LED Does Not Light When DockedTBD7.8.6.3 7535 Battery Does Not Charge When DockedTBD7.9 Portable Docking Module (PDM)The Portable Docking Module (PDM) clips onto the base of the 7535 and is most often used to charge the 7535 battery when a desktop charger is not convenient. The PDM also offers additional communication ports, making it useful for upgrading software in the 7535 from a USB-equipped laptop computer. Figure 7.2 on page 221 illustrates the connectors on the PDM.• Align the pins on the PDM with the connectors on the base of the 7535.• Gently snap the PDM into place on the base of the unit. Figure 7.1 on page 220 provides a visual representation of how to secure the PDM.Important: The latching mechanism on the PDM is designed for quick installation and release. It is not meant for heavy duty use.Psion Teklogix recommends using a powered cradle or combo charger in harsh environments.

A cigarette lighter adaptor (PN TBD) is also available to connect the PDM to a vehicle’s power. Use only the recommended adaptor with the PDM – it includes transient suppressors that protect your 7535 from damage.The PDM contains reverse polarity and over voltage protection. If the DC power jack is wired backwards or exceeds 20VDC, the PDM shuts down to protect the 7535, the PDM and the power supply from damage. Psion Teklogix does not recommend substituting the DC power supply provided with your PDM.The DC power supplied by the PDM is sufficient to operate the 7535 and fast charge its internal battery at the same time. The 7535 can run from a PDM without a battery installed.Type B USB DeviceRS232 Serial PortType A USB Host15 VDC Power Jack
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesBluetooth Peripherals222 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual7.10 Bluetooth PeripheralsIf the 7535 is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, it is possible to communicate with a variety of Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners, printers, and so on. The range of the Bluetooth radio in the 7535 is limited to approximately 2 meters.Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below. If your system is equipped with one of these peripherals, you only need to associate the peripheral with a specific 7535 host in order to be up and running.• GSM/GPRS tri-band universal handset (PN TBD)• Bluetooth printer (PN TBD) Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b radios both operate in the 2.4GHz band. Although the 7535 includes features to minimize interference, performance of the system will not be optimal if you use both radios simultaneously. Typically, when both radios operate in the 7535 at the same time, they cannot transmit simultaneously – this has a negative impact on overall system throughput. To minimize the impact on the backbone 802.11b network, Psion Teklogix recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction rates (such as printers and scanners).Bluetooth peripherals are configured using the Bluetooth control panel applet. See TBD for more details about Bluetooth device configuration. In addition, review the manual shipped with your Bluetooth device to determine the method used to associate with the 7535 host.7.11 The 7535 Picker CradleThe 7535 picker cradle is a highly ruggedized, single station dock. Although it provides quick insertion and removal,, the cradle holds the 7535 securely even when operated in high vibration environments (such as vehicles not equipped with suspensions).The7535 base picker cradle can be outfitted with two options – a power module and a port replicator. Psion Teklogix also supplies a range of standard mounts for the hand-held picker cradles, and the 7535 picker cradle is compatible with all of them.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 223Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesMounting Recommendations7.11.1 Mounting RecommendationsWarning: Before mounting a picker cradle in a vehicle, there are a number of operator safety issues that require careful attention. An improp-erly mounted cradle may result in one or more of the following: operator injury, operator visibility obstruction, operator distraction and/or poor ease of egress for the operator. Psion Teklogix strongly recommends that you seek professional mounting advice from the vehicle manufacturer. Cable routing within a vehicle cab also requires careful consider-ation, especially for separately tethered scanners and other devices with loose cables. If you are unable to obtain suitable advice, contact Psion Teklogix for assistance (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices). Note also that for better protec-tion, the equipment should be mounted inside the vehicle roll cage.Pedestal mounts are recommended for all fixed mount locations because they offer optimal operator access. In addition, for safety reasons, only pedestal mounts with fully locking joints are recommended. Always adjust the pedestal for the optimum viewing angle, and securely tighten the hex and wing screws.The most effective way to mount the picker cradle is to use the four #8-32 threaded inserts on the rear of the unit. Bolts must not extend more than 10mm (3/8") into the cradle. All Psion Teklogix mounting hardware is compatible with this method. Under special circumstances, it may be necessary to mount bolts through the cradle into a plate. In this case, the cradle requires partial disassembly. To accommodate the surface loop of the connector cable, leave a 4" clearance at the bottom of the cradle. Leave a 7" clearance at the top of the cradle to allow easy removal of the 7535. Refer to the detailed assembly instructions that are packaged with the cradle for this application (PN TBD)7.11.1.1 Mounting TemplateThe picker cradle is shipped with detailed mounting instructions including a drill template. [Drawing TBD].
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesWiring Guidelines224 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual7.11.2 Wiring GuidelinesBefore installing the cables between the cradle and other devices, considerthe following:• Ensure that drilling holes will not damage the vehicle or its wiring.• Protect cable runs from pinching, overheating and physical damage.• Use grommets to protect cables that pass through metal.• Use plastic straps to prevent cables and connectors from loosening.• Keep cables away from heat sources, grease, battery acid and other potential hazards.• Keep cables away from control pedals and other moving parts that may damage the cables or interfere with the operation of the vehicle.• Leave enough extra cable so that the 7535 can be easily removed.Note: Where applicable, ensure that the unit is mounted inside the roll cage.7.11.3 Using The Picker CradleIf your 7535 is equipped with a shoulder strap or cover, these accessories need to be removed before installing the unit in a picker cradle. There is no need to remove handstraps, pistol grips or tethered devices from the unit.• Slide the 7535 into the cradle, and press downwards until it locks into place. On a vehicle, it’s a good idea to pull up on the 7535 to be certain that it is secure.• To remove the 7535, press on one of the knobs on either side of the cradle until it releases.7.11.4 Maintaining The Picker CradleTwo latches in the cradle hold the 7535 firmly in place. Although these latches are designed for at least 100,000 cycles, they will wear over time and will no longer lock the 7535 securely in the cradle. For replacement parts and instructions contact Psion Teklogix (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices). Partial disassembly is required. The replacement latch components are identified in drawing # 1020030 Metalwork, part -94.
Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual 225Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesThe Powered Cradle Option7.11.5 The Powered Cradle OptionThe powered cradle option is designed to allow the 7535 to be powered by a vehicle battery. The battery installed in the 7535 is also recharged by the vehicle battery. This option accepts DC power sources over the range 12V to 90V. The 7535 picker cradle can be ordered with the powered cradle option installed, or it can be retrofitted later. If you are retrofitting a power cradle option, the supplied kit includes detailed installation instructions. The 7535 charging LED (see Section 3.6.1.1 on page 46) indicates that external power is available, and it also indicates the charging status of the internal battery.Warning: Applying a voltage above 90VDC or reversing polarity may result in permanent damage to cradle power option and will void the product warranty.7.11.5.1 Wiring Vehicle Power To The CradleA 2 meter extension power cable (PN 13985) is supplied with your power cradle. This cable should be wired to a filtered, fused (maximum 6A) accessory supply on the vehicle. The power cradle draws no more than 3.5A (less if the accessory supply is greater than 12V). Any additional wiring, connectors or disconnects used should be rated for at least 6A. The red lead of the power cable attaches to the positive vehicle supply. The black lead connects to the negative supply – this should be connected to a proper terminal block and not to the vehicle body. The power cradle is fully isolated and can be used with both negative and positive chassis vehicles.You may have the option of connecting power before or after the ‘key’ switch. It is preferable to wire the power cradle after the key switch – that is, it cannot be turned on without the key on. However, if the operator switches the key off repeatedly during a shift, it may make more sense to wire the cradle before the switch.If an unfused power source must be used, a fuse assembly (PN 19440) must be added to the extension power cable (the fuse and instructions are supplied with the cable). Use only a 5A slow blow UL approved fuse in the fuse assembly.
Chapter 7: Peripheral Devices & AccessoriesThe Port Replicator226 Teklogix 7535 Hand-Held Computer User Manual7.11.6 The Port ReplicatorThe port replicator is an optional accessory that allows tethered devices (e.g., scanners) as well as mounted peripherals (e.g., bar code printers or weigh scales) to be attached to the picker cradle. The replicator can be used with or without the cradle power option.The functionality of the 7535 tether port is duplicated on the port replicator. When the 7535 is installed in a port replicated picker cradle, the tether port on the 7535 is disabled and the tether port on the port replicator is enabled. Although it is not necessary to remove a device connected to the 7535, keep in mind that it will not operate while in the cradle.In addition to the tether port, the replicator is equipped with a standard 9 pin RS232D serial interface. This interface is typically used for fixed peripherals such as printers. Your serial device likely includes a suitable cable connector for this port.A port replicator can be retrofitted onto a cradle power option by replacing the blank bottom plate with a port replicator assembly using 4 screws. The kit includes the necessary instructions. Installing a port replicator on an unpowered cradle requires additional assembly steps. The upgrade kits vary – use PN TBD to upgrade a cradle power option, and PN TBD to upgrade an unpowered cradle.An icon in the 7535 task bar indicates that a port replicator has been attached.
