Manual Change Record

This page records the changes to this manual. The manual was originally released as version 001.

Version Date Description of Change

002 July 1997 This manual was changed to add information about the TRAKKER Antares

2420 terminal and to document the new firmware version. The new information

includes:

•The TRAKKER Antares 2420 terminal and features.

•RS-232 serial communications on the TRAKKER Antares 2425 terminal.

•TRAKKER Antares firmware version 2.10.

•Multiple drives and applications on the TRAKKER Antares 2420 and 2425

terminals.

•Western European keypad and character support on the TRAKKER

Antares 2420 and 2425 terminals.

All the functionality described in this manual applies to TRAKKER Antares

terminals with firmware version 1.X and higher. However, this manual does

describe features that are only available in TRAKKER Antares firmware

version 2.0 and higher.

003 December 1997 This manual was changed to add information about the TCP/IP radio frequency

network protocol option on the TRAKKER Antares 2425 terminal and to

document the new firmware version. The new information includes:

•TRAKKER Antares 2420 and 2425 firmware version 2.20.

•The TCP/IP network protocol option on the TRAKKER Antares 2425

terminal that allows a direct connection from the access points to the host

computer.

•New terminal emulation features including auto-login, password security

for the TE Configuration Menu, and international characters display

support in TE applications.

The manual was also reorganized to move all information about terminal

emulation applications into a separate guide that ships with the manual. The

TRAKKER Antares Terminal Emulation User’s Guide now contains all the

information you need to configure and use terminal emulation applications. All

other information is covered in this user’s manual.

Manual Change Record (continued)

004 July 1998 An addendum (Part No. 067224-001) was added to this manual. The

addendum provides information for firmware version 3.2X:

•Configuring row spacing and video mode.

•The space/backspace key has been reversed. Press

for backspace and

press



for space.

•Four-digit date format.

•Configuring the optional 2MB flash memory.

•ISBT Code 128.

•Configuration commands to support COM4.

•Configuring the T2425 to work with DHCP.

•Receiving and transmitting files using YMODEM and XMODEM-1K.

•Information on the high density, long range, and high visibility scan

modules.

005 February 1999 This manual was revised to incorporate the addendum and to document new

information for firmware version 5.X:

•Information is included about using the APPTSK.BIN and EM9560.BIN

applications that are preloaded on the terminals.

•You now use a programmable terminal instead of a screen mapping

terminal to do screen mapping with the host through the DCS 300.

•Information is included about using the serial interface module for

COM4.

•XON/XOFF is allowed in Frame mode.

•New Set Time and Date reader command for 95XX terminal

compatibility.

006 August 1999 This manual was revised to remove the TRAKKER Antares Terminal

Emulation User’s Guide, Part No. 066694-003, and add the Important

Terminal Emulation Information sheet, Part No. 069993-001. Also added the

dcBrowserinformation sheet, Part No. 070012-001.
