UMAN-P82100 Series - System Section 8-8
The P82100 Series of transportable printing systems,
consist of a terminal and configurable combinations of
printer modules integrated into a base which provides
power, charging and interface capabilities.
Terminal
The terminal section of the PS2100 Series is a
P82100T terminal/scanner with a touch-screen display
and a alpha numeric keypad for data entry. It utilizes the
Microsoft Windows® CE operating system.
The terminal of the PS2100 Series is a docking termi-
nal, which can be removed from the P82100 Series
Transportable System and used independently as a
hand-held terminal/scanner.
Complete information regarding the features and use of
the terminal can be found in the Terminal Section of this
manual.
Printer
There are two printers which can be specified in a
P82100 Series system: a unit which prints on 2” wide
media, and a larger one using 4" media. Both printers
use direct thermal media and are specifically designed for
printing labels, tags or continuous receipts (with or with-
out bar codes) from the P821 OOT terminal.
Following is a table describing the printer configurations
available on PS2100 series printing systems.

work shift by means of a removable battery pack. The
built in intelligent charger provides rapid charging for the
main battery and also allows the PS2100 Series to run
when plugged into an AC outlet.
Six external serial ports are provided on the P32100
Series Base. One is a 25 pin R8232 interface to allow
serial communications to P.C.s or in-store processors.
The remaining five ports are multiplexed to allow the
simultaneous input of up to five bar code scanners.
The PS2100 Series can also provide communication to
the host facility’s data network through the optional wire-
less capabilities of the terminal.

System Battery EI- Charging
The P82100 Series is powered by one Nickel-Metal
Hydride (NiMH) battery pack. The battery pack has
sufficient energy for six hours of normal use before it
requires recharging or replacing with a freshly charged
battery.
Charging
The built in charger in the P82100 Series can recharge
a depleted battery in three to four hours. This time will
vary if the system is used during the charge cycle.
Batteries are charged by plugging the P82100 Series
into a 90 to 230 V.A.C. outlet. The charger will automati-
cally adjust for the line voltage and start charging the

battery. The charger power light will come on to indicate
the unit is running on A.C. power, and the charge status
light will also turn on. When the battery reaches its
maximum charge, the charge status light will start to
blink, indicating that the battery is fully charged.
A slowly blinking status light indicates the charger is in
“Pending” mode, which occurs when a battery has been
discharged too deeply to go through the normal charge
5-13 UMAN-Psztoo Series - System Section
cycle (e.g. a battery that has been stored too long and
allowed to discharge). When in the “Pending” mode the
P82100 Series charger will slowly bring this battery’s
charge state up to a level where it can safely withstand a
fast charge, and then charge it normally. When the
charger is in the “Pending" mode, run and charge opera-
tions are not available.
Run and Charge Mode
The P82100 Series system can be used normally while
its battery is being charged. The charger indicator lights
will operate as usual, however, charge time will be longer.
Under severe system usage, the charge status indicator
may turn on steadily, as the charger switches to its “Fast
Charge” mode. This is a normal occurrence, and once
the battery’s charge level has been restored, the charge
status indicator will return to its blinking state.
If the charger is in the “Pending” mode, the Run and
Charge mode is disabled.

Touch Screen
The touch screen is the primary means of performing
most functions and entering data on the P821 OOT. The
stylus provided with the terminal can be used to “point
and click" on menu items in much the same way as a
mouse is used on a desktop PC .
Stylus
The PSZIOOT stylus is especially designed for compat-
A ibility with the touch screen. Use of any other point-
ing device, e.g. a ball point pen or a pencil, will
cause degradation and eventual damage to the
touch screen.
Always use the stylus provided with the terminal.
Selecting objects
Objects are selected on the touch screen by positioning
the point of the stylus over the desired object, and tap-
ping on the screen.
- If you have tapped a button or selection box, the
object will become highlighted.
It a data entry box is selected, pressing the stylus will
move the terminal’s cursor to that position, and data
can now be entered either via the various touch
screen options, or by means of the terminal’s keypad.
Refer to the section below on using the On-Screen
Keyboard, or the previous section on using the Nu-
meric Keypad.
- Double—tapping an application or document icon will
open it.
- Text may be selected by firmly sliding the stylus tip
over the desired characters.
~ Control sliders, and the elevator boxes on the display
can be also moved by sliding the stylus.

- If the terminal is docked in a PS21OO Series Print-
ing System connect the unit to A.C. power whenever
possible using the system‘s charging system. Batter-
ies will charge while the system is being used.
Charging the Battery
The PS2100T will alert the user when the battery needs
charging. The user then has the option of either replac-
ing the battery with a freshly charged one, or charging
the unit. lithe battery is run down below a minimum limit,
the terminal will suspend operations and cannot be
restarted until the battery is either replaced or recharged.
There are two options for charging the P821 OOT:
- PS2100 Printing System. If the terminal is docked
in a PS2100 Printing System, the entire system can
be plugged into an A.C. power source and it will
UMAN-PSZI 00 Series ~ Terminal Section 0T-12
continue to operate normally while its battery is re-
charged. Refer to the System Section of this manual
for more information on charging batteries in the
P82100 Printing System.
- The LI72 Wall Charger (p/n AT15759-tab)
The LI72 is a wall mounted single charger with
universal 110 to 230, 50-60 Hz. VAC input. The
charger can be configured with plugs which comply
with most international standards. The LI72 Charger
can only be used when the terminal is not docked in a
PS21OO Series system.
Plug the LI72 Charger into the appropriate AC
power source, and the charger plug into the P821 OOT
Battery Pack. The LED on the charger will report
charging status. A steady light indicates that the
battery is being charged (“fast mode”). A slowly
blinking light indicates that the charge cycle is com-
plete and the charger is now in “trickle charge“ mode.
A rapidly blinking light indicates a charging problem
and the battery undergoing a charge may be defec-
tive.
PS2100T batteries can be charged while the
terminal is in use. Charging the battery with the Wall
Charger will take approximately 4 hours. Actual
charging time will depend on the battery pack’s condi-
tion and usage of the terminal while charging.
Charger part numbers will vary depending on specific
country of use. Consult Zebra tor the correct part num-
ber Ior your application.

the P82100 terminal.
- Press and hold down the Feed Button on the printer
under test.
- Turn the printer back on by pressing the “ON/Off”
key on the PSZ100 terminal again.
- When the indicator around the Feed Button flashes,
release the Feed Button.
The printer will advance media and then print out a
status report as shown. It is now in its diagnostic
“DUMP“ mode.
- Tap the feed button again. The printer will print “out
of DUMP" and can resume normal operation. Re-
member to turn the Label Take Sensor switch back
