TERMINAL STARTUP
The Formula Color™ terminal turns on when the SCAN key is pressed.
For batch models, the prompt is displayed or if present the application program
starts.
For radio models, the following popup window is briefly displayed while the radio
connects with the base station:
The terminal goes into low power consumption mode (display off), when it is no
longer used for more than a programmable timeout (default 16 sec. - par. 3.6.5). In
this mode it can be awakened (resuming operation) by external events such as
SCAN key press, radio transmission, etc. see par. 3.6.4)
To turn the terminal off, press FUNC + ESC key.
