Chapter 3— Operating the Terminal in a Network
Using RF Communications on the 2435
54
Polling Mode D Protocol
Polling Mode D protocol requires the host computer to ask the terminal
for data it may have (polling) and to request to send data to the terminal
(selecting). This protocol uses an RS-232 interface and implements the
user interface through reader commands. Polling Mode D also supports
XON/XOFF and CTS/RTS flow control.
You can configure the following serial port parameters:
• Baud rate
• Flow control
Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30 cm (1 ft) apart
when power is applied. Failure to comply could result in equipment
damage.
Attention: Assurez-vous que la distance entre tous les éléments avec
antennes soit d'au moins 30 centimètres (un pied) avant de faire la
connexion avec l'alimentation électrique, faute de quoi vous risquez
d'endommager votre installation.
The 2435 has an internal antenna to transfer data using RF
communications. Before you can use RF communications, you must
perform these steps:
1 Plan and prepare your network. For help, see the next section,
"Planning the Network Connection."
2 (UDP Plus or WTP network only) Configure the Intermec Gateway or
DCS 30X. For help, see "Configuring the Intermec Gateway or
DCS 30X" on page 55.
3 Configure the access points and radios. For help, see "Configuring the
Access Points" on page 56.
4 Configure the network parameters on each terminal in the network. For
help, see "Configuring the 2435 Network Parameters" on page 58.
5 (802.1x security) Configure the 802.1x TTLS or LEAP security
parameters on each terminal in the network. For help, see "Configuring
the 802.1x Security Parameters" on page 58.
Note: You can also configure parameters for multiple terminals in your
RF network using the Wavelink Avalanche client management system
and the Intermec Settings application. For help, see Chapter 2,
"Configuring and Managing the Terminals," in the Trakker Antares
2400 Family System Manual (P/N 071389).
