Set Time
The time is set using a 4-digit military hhmm format. For example, to set
the time to 3:08 p.m., you would enter 1508. The time can be scanned in
from the bar coded Setup Menu or entered from the RF Terminal keypad.
To display the time during operation, press the STATUS key.
Display of Year
2 digit 0
4 digit 1
 By default, the RF Terminal is configured to display and transmit the
year in a 2-digit format; i.e. 1999 would transmit and display as 99.
 Before you change the RF Terminal to display a 4-digit year, i.e. 1999,
make sure that the software receiving data from the RF Terminal is set
up to accept a 4-digit year.
Shut Down Time
By default, if the RF Terminal is inactive (no keystrokes or scanning) for
more than 5 minutes, it will shut itself down in order to conserve batteries.
This includes SIGNING OFF if appropriate. To resume operation, you
must turn the RF Terminal back on using the ON/OFF key. To change the
amount of time the RF Terminal waits before shutting down:
 Scan Shut Down Time
 Scan two digits - the default is 05 (5 minutes)- to correspond to the
length of time in minutes. For example, 01 would be 1 minute.
If you want to prevent the RF Terminal from shutting off automatically at
all, set the Shut Down Time to 00.
Laser Scanner Options

Double Decode 1
4.5 second laser beam 3
Transmit EAN-13 normally C

 By default, the RF Terminal has no special laser options set. If any of
the features below seem to fit your situation, set them appropriately.
Settings C through F are not laser-dependent and are for UPC/EAN bar
code types only. See the UPC/EAN parameter for more information
 Double Decode is there to minimize the possibility of misreads when
scanning very poor quality bar codes. This option forces the RF Terminal
