Safety Summary
Before You Begin
This section provides you with safety information, technical su pport
information, and sources for additional product information.
Your safety is extremely important. Read and follow all warnings and
cautions in this document before handling and operating Intermec
equipment. You can be seriously injured, and equipment and data can be
damaged if you do not follow the safety warnings and cautions.
R
Donotrepairoradjustalone
Do not repair or adjust energized equipment alone under any
circumstances. Someone capable of providing first aid must always be
present for your safety.
First aid
Always obtain first aid or medical attention immediately after an injury.
Never neglect an injury, no matter how slight it seems.
Resuscitation
Begin resuscitation immediately if someone is injured and stops breathing.
Any delay could result in death. To work on or near high voltage, you
should be familiar with approved industrial first aid methods.
Energized equipment
Never work on energized equipment unless authorized by a responsible
authority. Energized electrical equipment is dangerous. Electrical shock
from energized equipment can cause death. If you must perform
authorized emergency work on energized equipment, be sure that you
comply strictly with approved safety regulations.

This chapter introduces the TE 2000t 5250 application.
1TE 20005250 Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide
Getting StartedChapter —1
Understanding Network Protocol Options
TE 2000 applications for the Enterprise Wireless LANt system use one
of the following network protocol options:
S UDP Plus
The terminal communicates with the host computer through the
IntermecRApplication Server and an access point.
S TCP/IP
The terminal communicates through an Intermec access point, which is
directly connected to the host computer on an Ethernet or a token ring
network.
S WTP
The terminal communicates with the host computer through the Intermec Application Server, Intermec access point, or other Intermec gateways.
For network configuration options, refer to your terminal’s user manual.
Setting Up the Terminal and the Network
Before you can start using the TE 2000 application on your terminal, you
need to do the following:
1 Set up your terminal.
Set-up includes charging and installing the battery pack and turning on
the terminal for the first time. For instructions, refer to your terminal’s
user manual.
Note: Battery packs do not apply to all terminals. Vehicle mount and
stationary terminals are powered via an external source.
2 Configure your terminal and the network.
To use RF communications on the terminal, you need to:
a Configure the Intermec Application Server (UDP Plus or WTP),
other Intermec gateways (WTP), or host (TCP/IP).
b Configure the access point. This does not apply to the 2480/2481 Ter-
minal, which contains an Ethernet NIC instead of a radio.
c Configure the network parameters on the terminal.
Forinstructions,refertoyourterminal’susermanual.
3 Verify that your terminal is communicating correctly with the access
point, Intermec Application Server, or host.
To verify that your terminal is communicating correctly, refer to the
terminal’s user manual for instructions.
2 TE 2000
5250 Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide
Starting the TE 2000 Application
You are ready to start your application once the terminal is set up, the terminal and the network are configured, and communications are established with the gateway and access point or host.
To start your application:
Turn on the terminal. Wait a few seconds while the initialization screens
(below) clear and the application starts.

Performing a Quick Configuration
Note: For Terminal Emulation Version 6.60 or greater, the default data
stream is “VT/ANSI.”
1 Change the data stream to “5250.” The default data stream is “Native”
for the 6400 (WTP), 5055 (WTP), 11XX, 17XX, and 59XX Terminals.
The default data stream f or 2415, 2425, 2435A, 2455, 2475, 248X,
and IP terminals is “3270.”
