Preparing The 7035 For Operation
2.1 Preparing The 7035 For Operation
Note: For vehicle-mount installation instructions, refer to “Installing
8255/8260 Vehicle-Mount Terminals” beginning on page 20.
Preparing the 7035 terminal for operation includes installing the battery pack, and if
an external antenna is required, connecting the antenna to the 7035.
Important:
All battery packs must be charged before use. Refer to “The 7967
Gang Charger” on page 167 for battery charging details.
2.1.1 Connecting The 7035 Whip Antenna
To begin, if your 7035 has a plastic cap at the top of the unit, it uses an internal
antenna – a whip antenna is not required.
If a whip antenna was supplied with the 7035, it should be attached to the top of the
unit. Make certain that the antenna is securely attached to the terminal.
Important:
If you are unsure if the antenna supplied is intended for your
terminal, refer to “Antenna Types” on page 170.
In addition, failure to securely attach the antenna to the terminal
can result in poor communication quality.
2.1.2 The Battery Pack – Removing And Installing
The 7035 hand-held terminal operates with a Lithium-Ion battery pack.
Important:
Before attempting to install, use or charge the battery pack, it is
critical that you review and follow the important safety guidelines
listed on page 50 and also in the section titled “Lithium-Ion
Battery Safety Precautions” on page 161.

up to 10 minutes. A fresh battery must be installed within this 10
minute timeframe. THIS BACKUP WILL NOT FUNCTION
UNLESS THE TERMINAL IS TURNED OFF BEFORE THE
BATTERY IS REMOVED. Removing the battery while the unit is
operating will result in a full reboot.
Even after the system backup has expired, the date and time are
maintained for 100 hours without a battery.
To remove the battery pack:
• Turn the terminal upside down (antenna pointing down).
• Grasp the unit around the keypad area with your forefinger resting on
the battery release button.
The battery release button is located at the base of the terminal, just above the
28-pin port.
• Press the button until the battery unlatches.

Note: A Phillips head screwdriver is required.
Teklogix recommends that the hand strap provided with your terminal always be
used. However, if your terminal has an internal scanner and you plan to use the
pistol grip accessory, a hand strap is not required.
Each end of the hand strap has two holes drilled in it. The holes nearest the outer
edges of the hand strap allow the hand strap to be installed more loosely while
the holes closer to the centre of the strap provide a tighter fit. The hand strap
can be secured either on the left or the right side of the terminal, depending on
operator preference.
Two black #4-40 Phillips head screws are provided with the hand strap for
attachment. Four threaded inserts are available on the back of the terminal. The hand
strap can be attached either to the upper- and lower-most inserts on the left side of
the terminal or to the upper- and lower-most inserts on the right side of the terminal.
To attach the hand strap, choose on which side of the terminal the hand strap is to be
attached and securely fasten the screws into the back of the terminal.
2.1.3.2
Attaching The Pistol Grip

The antenna consists of the antenna whip and a magnetic mount with cable.
• For narrow band radios, screw the antenna on in a clockwise direction.
• For spread spectrum radios, screw the antenna on in a counter-clockwise
direction.
The antenna works best when placed vertically and away from metal objects that
may interfere with the radio signal. The best location for the magnetic mount on a
fork lift truck is on the middle of the roof or cab cover, at least 20 centimeters away
from the operator.
Warning:
As a safety precaution, USERS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO
CHANGE THE ANTENNA.
2.2.5 Installing The Cables
Note: Make sure the cables run inside the roll cage.
When installing the cables between the terminal and other devices, consider
the following:
• Ensure the drilling holes will not damage the vehicle or its wiring.
• Protect cable runs from pinching, overheating and physical damage.
• Protect cables by using grommets when cables pass through metal.
• Prevent cables and connectors from moving and loosening by using
plastic straps.
• Keep the cables away from heat sources, grease, battery acid, and other
potential hazards.

Chapter 2: Basic Assembly And Operation
Installing The Extension Power Cable
•
•
Keep the cables away from control pedals and other moving parts that
may pull on the cables or interfere with the operation of the vehicle.
Leave enough slack on the cables so that the terminal can be removed
easily for maintenance.
2.2.6 Installing The Extension Power Cable
The terminal has a short power cord and connector. The extension power cable
(P.N. 13985) should be connected from the terminal’s power cord to a fused power
source capable of carrying the additional 3 Amps required by standard terminals or
5 Amps for freezer terminals.
Note: For vehicles operating on 24 Volts or above, connections must be made as
close to the vehicle battery as possible.
If an unfused power source must be used, install the fuse assembly (P.N. 19440)
provided with P.N. 13985. To connect the fuse assembly, push the male connector
of the fuse assembly into the female connector at the positive (red) lead of the
power cable. Connect the red lead to the positive side of the battery. Connect
the black lead to the negative side of the battery.
Warning:
Do not reverse the polarity or connect to a voltage outside the
10-55 volt range.
Note: When installing terminals on vehicles operating on 24 Volts and above,
the diode assembly (supplied with the extension power cable 13985)
must be used to reduce the AC ripple produced by the SCR traction motor
controller on the vehicle. To connect the diode, push the male connector
on the diode assembly into the female connector on the positive (red) lead
of the power cable. If the fuse assembly is already installed, connect
the diode assembly to the fuse assembly as described in the previous
sentence. Connect the red wire from the diode assembly to a fused power
source on the vehicle.
It is recommended that all connections be secured with electrical tape or
heat shrink to prevent contaminants from degrading the connection.

Basic Operation Of The Terminals
2.3 Basic Operation Of The Terminals
Important:
Any differences in operation between the 7035 hand-held and the
8255/8260 vehicle-mount terminals are explicitly indicated.
The Teklogix 7035, 8255 and 8260 terminals are fully functional personal
computers (PCs), compatible with the IBM AT (486) architecture. They normally
come pre-loaded with DOS. These terminals are intended to be used in terminal
emulation mode for real-time wireless data transaction processing. However, they
can also be used stand-alone in batch mode.
The remainder of this manual describes terminal operation as it applies to normal
terminal emulation mode, utilizing wireless communication to a host computer.
The operation of these terminals depends on the application software running on the
host computer. The terminals’ interaction with the application depends on both
the terminal operating system and the terminal hardware. This chapter outlines the
unique features of the hardware. For more information on the terminal operating
system, see Chapter 6: Setting Parameters.
2.3.1 Turning The Terminals On And Off

The Arrow Keys
The 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.
Manual Panning Keys (Arrow Keys)
If the content of a screen is too large to fit in the margins of the terminal window, the
contents can be “panned” or shifted to display information outside the margins. The
7035 and the 8255 and 8260 terminals allow both manual and automatic panning.
The “Panning” parameter specifies when and how the screen contents should be
shifted.
Note: For details about Auto Panning, refer to “Auto Pan, Left Margin, Right
Margin And Bottom Margin” on page 93.
Manual panning – shifting the contents of the screen using the key in
combination with the , , and arrow keys –
relies on the values set in the “X Increment” and “Y Increment” parameters to
determine the number of columns (spaces) and rows (lines) to pan or shift.
To access the “X Increment” and “Y Increment” parameters:
•
•
In the “Parameters” menu, position the cursor on the “System” option and
press .
Move the cursor down to “Panning” and press .
Important:

The Macro Keys – Creating Macros
Important:
A step-by-step description of how to program macros keys is
detailed in “Global Macros” on page 150.
7035 hand-held terminals are equipped with four macro keys, and 8255/8260
vehicle-mounts with twelve. These keys can be programmed to insert a text string at
the cursor position and can also be programmed to execute the function of the
following keys: , , (-), any function key
including the and function keys, and the arrow keys.
A macro has 19 programmable characters (or “positions”). The macro keys can be
programmed to replace frequently-used keystrokes, including executable keys. They
may also be used to provide characters not normally accessed from the keyboard.
2.4 The Indicators
Teklogix terminals use LEDs (Light Emitting Diode), onscreen messages and
beepers as indicators.
2.4.1 LEDs
Transmit And Receive
Two LEDs indicate the transmit and receive status of data. On the 7035, they are
located on the left and right of the key. On the vehicle-mounts, the LEDs
are located to the left on the keyboard and are labelled TX and RX
•
•
The amber TX (transmit) LED flashes when the terminal transmits data.
The green RX (receive) LED flashes momentarily during the boot process.
After boot up, it flashes when the terminal receives data. (Note that if a
Mobitex WAN radio is installed in your terminal, the Receive LED may
occasionally blink even without a Mobitex network connection because the
radio modem sometimes generates a Mobitex packet MPAK on its own,)
