PREFACE The 5000/5100 stationary batch terminals are intended for versatile data collection applications with its large and expandable database capacity, and allow programmable solutions to meet varying needs of customers. Various operational parameters can be configured, such as backlight control, buzzer control, graphic screen and output format. Integrated with a proximity reader and backlit keypad, the 5000 terminal simply satisfies general needs regarding large data collection.
CARE & MAINTENANCE This is specifically prepared for those who are in charge of taking care of the terminals, such as a terminal operator or maintenance engineer. Here are some tips on how to take care and maintain the terminals. Taking care of the terminal Always keep electric equipments like the terminals away from any flammable sources. Always make sure there is stable power supply for the terminal to operate properly. This terminal is intended for indoor use.
GETTING READY If you are using the terminal for the first time, the illustration below gives outline of the system and section references. Access to the configuration menus needs to disconnect the external and internal power connection of the terminal first. Therefore, we suggest that you do all the configuration and downloading jobs before setting up the system on site.
1. INTRODUCING 5000/5100 This section mainly explains the hardware construction and features of the 5000/5100 terminals. The 5100 terminal looks similar to the 5000 terminal except for the screen. 1.
Introducing 5000/5100: Nomenclature 1.
Introducing 5000/5100: Nomenclature 1.2.

Introducing 5000/5100: Features 1.3 Features 1.3.1 Power Line Power A 12 V/ 1000 mA wall adaptor is used to power the 5000/5100 terminals.
Introducing 5000/5100: Features Power Consumption Status The System Menu provides information on power consumption. Monitor voltage level: Line / Main / Backup >> Also see Section 4.3.5 Power For the 5100 terminal, the smart battery icon will replace the plug icon on the screen when it is battery-operated. Here is another way to tell a low or discharged main battery from the screen.
Introducing 5000/5100: Features 1.3.2 CPU A 16-bit low power CMOS CPU is utilized. With little current consumed, yet, this CPU can run under 22.1184MHz and provide more than 6 MIPS of computation powers. 1.3.3 Memory & Calendar An optional memory card upgrades memory to 2, 4, or 8 Mbytes SRAM with its own contents backup button cell. The DIP switch on the card must be set ON for the cell to work. Program memory: - 2 Mbytes flash memory for core, OS, application software, fonts, etc.
Introducing 5000/5100: Features Installing Memory Card 1. Align pinholes at the back of the card to the pins on the main PCB. 2. Press down the card flatly. Be careful not to bend or distort any pins. 3. Then apply the screw to screw down to the pole.
Introducing 5000/5100: Features 1.3.4 Keyboard A 21-key keypad is for system setup, user entry and so on. Figure 7: Keypad layout Silicon rubber has been chosen for their durability and prompt feedback. The key click can be configured through the System Menu. >> Also see Section 4.3.2 Settings These keys can be categorized into two groups: Function keys (F1~F6): - User-definable, each comes with a GREEN LED underneath. Can be used to show the current system status such as working shifts, etc.
Introducing 5000/5100: Features Optional External Keyboard The 5000/5100 terminals provide one keyboard port. You may connect an external keyboard to this port. 1. Connect wires from the keyboard module to the receptacle on the main PCB. 2.

Specifications Enclosure Material & Color: ABS plastic Black Dimensions: 150 mm (L) x 150 mm (W) x 50 mm (H) Weight: Approx. 1.
TROUBLESHOOTING The terminal cannot accept valid cards… Regarding power – Check if the power adaptor is plugged into a wall outlet. Check if the outlet is working. If the problem persists, check if the wiring inside the terminal is correct and secured. Regarding memory – Check if memory buffer is full. Then clean buffer by downloading data to a computer. Regarding the reader – Check if the selected reader type in your application matches the default setting. >> Also see Section 4.3.
Troubleshooting The keyboard input seems not working properly… Test keyboard. >> Also see Section 4.3.3 Tests: Keyboard If the problem persists, re-connect the power and perform test. The external devices controlled by DI/DO signals are not working properly… Check if the device is properly wired to the terminal blocks. If the problem persists, re-connect the power and perform test. About abnormal response… The LEDs or LCD seem not working properly – Test components. >> Also see Section 4.3.
APPENDIX I – MOUNTING TEMPLATE This mounting template is provided in actual size (1:1 scale). 1. Place this paper on the place you desire to mount the terminal. 2. Use paper tape to attach it on the surface. 3. Then use a power drill to drill holes on the four corners. The size of these holes is 6mm in diameter and 21mm in depth. Make sure that your printout doesn’t zoom in/out during printing.
