for a list of bar-code

types the PTC can be programmed

to read.

Your PTC's application program may be set up to read

and automatically discriminate between a number of

bar-code types. See your organization's application

manual or instructions for the bar-code types your

PTC is programmed to recognize.

The PTC automatically recognizes when a keyboard is

attached and can immediately accept input from it.

The PTC-870IM goes into a sleep state in each of the

following circumstances: if it is not used for a period

of time or if it is turned off using the On/Off button.

In the sleep state, the PTC turns off portions of its

internal electronics to conserve power.

The PTC has two stages of sleep. The first stage

begins after approximately 1 minute of inactivity or

when the Off button is pressed. The PTC's screen goes

blank, the backlight (if present) turns off, and other

subsystems inside the PTC may slow down or turn off

to conserve power. The PTC's Power LED blinks every

4 seconds to show that the PTC is in the first sleep

stage. The application program running at the time

stays on, and any data in RAM is protected.
