    Be sure all Access Points and Terminals have the same SSID and WEP Key, (if Encryption is used). Terminals are shipped with a SSID of WORTH DATA. Start with one Terminal. Get everything working with the single terminal and then add other terminals, being certain that all terminals have unique IP Device Address.
  • Page 5 Terminal's Setup to Batteries 1 to allow recharging. If you want to charge the batteries without having to remove them from the Terminal, you must use the Worth Data 9v power supply. You can safely use alkaline batteries in a terminal set for recharging, providing you don’t plug a power supply into the terminal.
  • Page 6 Battery Life Indicator The R/F Terminal detects low AA batteries and displays the following message: LOW BATTERIES Finish, Sign Off Change Batteries Hit Any Key_ At this point you have approximately 2 minutes of operational time to finish your transaction (or note where you are leaving off if in the middle of a transaction) and sign off.

    Chapter 3 Operational Theory Before you jump in and start writing a complex host program, it might be nice to be familiar with the theory behind the operation of your RF Terminal. Basic RF System communications… A WIFI RF Terminal system consists of three components – Host Server, Access Points and RF Terminal.
  • Page 29 When the Server receives a SIGN ON message from a RF Terminal, the Server transmits the SIGN ON information to the host application program. The host application can then do one of two things: 1. If it has something for the Terminal to do, it can send a prompt to the Terminal.

  • Page 30: Can I Change A Prompt After It Has Been Sent

    Can I change a prompt after it has been sent? Normally once the Terminal has received a prompt from the host, it goes to sleep and waits (as long as it takes) for the operator to scan or key something in response. The host cannot send another data entry prompt without creating a "Sequence Error."...

  • Page 32: Chapter 4 Performance Issues

    Chapter 4 Performance Issues Evaluating your area of planned operation Since every operational environment is different, it is impossible for us to tell you exactly what equipment you need and where you should put it to achieve maximum performance from your RF System. However, since access points are very inexpensive, you should be able to obtain whatever coverage you need.

  • Page 44 Concepts – WD802Term ActiveX Drop-in components are tools that are added to your programming environment "tool kit". Only the ActiveX variety are widely compatible with almost all development environments. When you use drop-in components in your program you will follow the standard object-oriented programming paradigm that uses properties, methods, and events to implement the functionality of the drop-in component.
  • Page 45 Keep in mind that unless your terminal is configured with a static IP address, each time it is powered on it can have a different IP address (issued by your DHCP server). Also, regardless of the terminal’s IP address, it can be assigned a different ID (by WD802Term) each time it Signs On to the server.
  • Page 46 Methods – WD802Term ActiveX Methods are commands that you issue to the WD802term control. All of the " " commands cause the terminal to wait for operator input.
