Introduction to the 6540 Terminal
The 6540 Terminal is a rugged PC-based data collection terminal. In most respects it is like a
DOS PC. Application developers can easily write custom applications for this terminal. Its
Ethernet interface makes it easy for network administrators to manage.

Desktop Configuration
In other respects, however, it is different from a standard desktop PC. In particular, the terminal’s
display is smaller than a standard PC. You must adapt applications for the display.
In addition, the solid state disk and data storage devices of Models DFB and DSB are different
from a desktop PC that typically uses a hard drive. The DFB Model has a flash drive instead of
the standard disk drive. Flash is a different type of stable storage with faster access than a disk
drive because it has no moving parts. The DSB Model has an SRAM (Static Random Access
1-1
Section 1 Introduction to the 6540 Terminal
Memory) drive. The SRAM drive is faster than the other models, but contents of its memory are
lost if power fails. The DHB Model has a standard disk drive.
In addition, its enclosure is specialized for the requirements of industrial environments. It is
designed for permanent mounting to a desktop or wall.

Set Up
Unpacking
Several different models are available, and each can be ordered with a range of options and
accessories. When unpacking, check the packing list against your order, and ensure that all
of the listed options and accessories are present.
Accessories are all visible, and their presence is easy to verify. The connectors for optional
add-on cards should be visible through the rear panel. The CPU type and speed, and the
memory configuration are reported on the display when the unit goes through its self-test
upon power up.
Powering on for the First Time
All units are thoroughly tested at the factory. Nonetheless we recommend you power up
each unit upon receipt to verify that it is operating normally. Powering up the unit requires
connecting the power supply to the proper port on the unit’s rear panel and positioning the
power switch in the “on” position (marked I). The unit runs a power-up self-test that reports
the status of its main systems and terminates at a DOS prompt. Scanners connected to the
scanner ports work normally. The unit is ready to connect to an Ethernet network.

Mounting and Adjusting
The terminal rests on desktop or is permanently mounted to a desktop or wall using its adjustable
mounting bracket accessory. Its protective cable cover accessory attaches to the top panel of the
unit, to provide environmental protection.
Desktop Configuration without Mounting Bracket
In the desktop configuration without the adjustable mounting bracket, the supplied feet should be
attached as shown in Figure 3-1. When an adjustable mounting bracket is ordered with the unit
the rubber feet are not supplied.

The following illustrations show how you can permanently attach the terminal to a desk or wall
with the optional mounting bracket.
Figure 3-2
Desktop Configuration with Adjustable Mounting Bracket
Use the adjustable mounting bracket (part number 2-486015-20) for either surface. Once the
bracket is installed, you can tilt the terminal from 0 to 15 degrees, by loosening the thumbscrews,
tilting the unit, then retightening the screws.
You can permanently mount the terminal to a wall using the adjustable mounting bracket. Note
that the recommended orientation of the bracket depends on the position of the unit with respect
to the operator.

Drill holes where indicated using a drill size appropriate for the permanent fastener you plan to use.
Affix bracket to countertop or wall using a fastener you supply. (Do not exceed 10-32 size fastener.)
Press two of the four vibration-damping grommets into the mounting bracket and two into the J-shaped
Attach two J-shaped brackets to the terminal by inserting the pan-head screws through the flat washers and
the slots on the J-shaped brackets, then through the vibration damping grommets, then into the mating
inserts in the case. You may need to remove the nonskid feet to expose the mating inserts. If so, simply
pull off the feet to uncover the inserts.
Attach the main brackets to the terminal by inserting the pan-head screws through the flat washers and
vibration damping grommets, then into the mating inserts in the case.
Insert thumbscrews through the main bracket and screw them into the inserts on the J-shaped brackets.
Once installed, you can tilt the terminal up to 15 degrees by loosening the thumbscrews, tilting the terminal,
retightening the screws.

The badge reader bracket can be installed on either side of the mounting bracket as shown. The
badge reader includes two supplied screws (#4.40 x 0.250” L). Insert them as shown through the
bracket and into the threaded inserts in the adjustable mounting bracket. Attach the badge reader
to the badge reader bracket using screws supplied with that product.
Protective Cable Cover Assembly
1. Place unit face down on its keyboard.
2. Position tabs on the protective cover into the matching holes on the case of the unit.
3. Rotate the cover so that the notches align with the spacers on the two screws in front of
the connector panel.
4. Press the cable cover into place against the screw spacers until firmly seated.
5. Attach all desired cables to appropriate ports.
6. Lay cables across the edge of the cover with the screw holes.
7. Lay platform on cable cover.
8. Turn the terminal over, so its keyboard is facing up. Secure the cover with the supplied
screws. The foam liner on the inside edge of the cover protects the cables.

Connecting to the Network
The terminal includes drivers that let you connect it to all popular networks. In Models DFB and
DSB, they are located on the FLASH (B:) drive of the terminal. In Model DHB they are located
on the hard disk drive (C:). The network drivers are loaded on the terminal based on your order.
All of the network configurations require adding, deleting, or modifying files on the B: or C: drives.
In the Model DFB and DSB, since the B: drive is a flash drive, and it is shipped in its writeprotected mode, these operations require you remove the write protection. For information on
using the flash drive, see Section 5. In the Model DHB these files are not protected, but can be by
using the standard DOS ATTRIB.EXE command.
The following sections show you what files are loaded, and what files need to be modified for your
particular configuration.
NOTE: On initial boot the unit reports errors. You must configure it for your network to remove
these errors.
Wired Network Connection for the Terminal
This section applies to the terminal with the standard onboard Crystal Ethernet connection..
Within this section are two subsections − one for ODI networks and the other for TCPIP networks.
If your terminal connects to a Novell network, follow the ODI instructions. If connecting to a
TCPIP network, follow the TCPIP instructions.
