PT-500

DOCUMENT NUMBER: 350500-0010

NOTICE

The unit is equipped with a NiMH

battery pack. It is possible that the

customer might receive the battery pack

in a discharged (dead) state due to

product storage. This is normal.

In the above situation, plug the

9V/500mA AC-DC adapter into the PT500

and an available 110V electrical outlet,

switch on the PT500, and fully charge the

NiMH battery pack for 14-16 hours. Or

place the PT500 into the optional charging

cradle for 3 hours before using the unit.

During the initial charging, switching

on the PT500 is highly recommended. In

addition to charging the main NiMH

battery pack, this will also simultaneously

charge up the backup lithium battery.

Chapter 2 Installation

2.1 Power On and Off the PT-500

Press the Power Key ?located near the bottom left corner

to turn the terminal on and off. As a safeguard, the unit can

only be turned off by pressing the power key ?for at least 3

seconds.

2.2 Batteries

Main Battery

The PT-500 operates with either a rechargeable nickel

metal-hydride (NiMH) battery pack or three standard AA size

alkaline batteries. When the main battery is running low, the

LCD display will start blinking. If the unit is switched off and

on again, a warning message stating “MAIN BATTERY

LOW” will appear on the LCD display.

NiMH Battery Pack

Battery Installation Procedure:

1. Turn off the terminal and placeit face down.

2. Move the battery compartment latch to the left to

open. Remove the battery cover.

3. Insert the main batteries:

?NiMH battery:

Place the battery with label facing up; firmly

push the whole pack inside the compartment.

?Alkaline batteries:

Insert the batteries in the positions as shown

by the polarity symbols inside compartment

4. Replace the battery cover and move the latch back to

the locked (centered) position.

5. If you are using NiMH battery pack, please charge

the NiMH batteries continuously for 14 to 16 hours

with AC-DC power adapter, or 3 hours with the

optional charging and communication cradle.

Note: The AC-DC power adapter is only for NiMH battery

pack recharging. It won’t recharge alkaline batteries.

Do not incinerate, crush, or puncture batteries.

Do not dispose of alkaline batteries in fire.

Do not attempt to recharge alkaline batteries.

Backup Battery

The PT-500 also has a built-in rechargeable Lithium backup

battery that temporarily protects data stored in RAM. The

power of the Lithium battery is only consumed when the

main power source is not available, such as when the main

battery is removed or discharged. When a functional NiMH

battery pack or 3 AA-size batteries are in the main battery

compartment, power is provided to backup the RAM

memory and system clock, which effectively puts the Lithium

battery in a standby state.

The power circuitry of the PT-500 monitors the voltage level

from the main power source and automatically connects the

Lithium battery for backup once it has detected that

inadequate power is being provided by the main power

source. Under these conditions, the life of theLithium

battery would be up to10 hours. Therefore it is highly

recommended that the main battery always be kept

adequately charged inside the unit.

When the PT-500 is switched on and the Lithium battery is

discharged, the following low backup battery warning

message will be displayed on the PT-500 LCD:

In this situation you should upload your data from the PT-

500 to a PC and have the Lithium battery replaced. Contact

your local sales or service representative for replacement of

the Lithium battery.

Note: Data may not be backed up and data loss may occur

if both the main battery and the Lithium battery are

discharged.

2.3 Using the Keypad

The Keypad of the PT-500 consists of 36 rubber keys and

one large scanner trigger button. The keypad layout is

shown in the following picture.

2.4 Triggering the Scanner Module

The PT-500 can be used with a built-in integrated

laser or CCD scanner module. To use the scanner, just

point the scanner window at a barcode and press the trigger

that activates the scanner. A short beep from the buzzer

and flashing red LED indicator on top of the LCD display

indicates when the scanning is successful.

2.5 Interface Port

The PT-500 includes a DSUB-9 pin male connector, located

at the base of the terminal, for serial communication with a

PC. Infra red LEDs and charging contacts for the optional

cradle are located on the bottom right below the DB 9

connector. The pin out assignment is shown as follows:
