This chapter introduces the Native terminal emulation application.
1Native Terminal Emulation Programmer’sGuide
Getting StartedChapter —1
Understanding Network Protocol Options
Native Terminal Emulation applications for the Enterprise Wireless
LANt system use one of the following network protocol options:
S TCP/IP
The terminal communicates through an IntermecRaccess 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 Native Terminal Emulation 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 (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, gateway, or host.
To verify that your terminal is communicating correctly, refer to the
terminal’s user manual for instructions.
2 Native Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide
Starting the Native Terminal Emulation Application
You are ready to start your application once the terminal has been set up,
the terminal and the network have been configured, and communications
have been 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.

For help with the keyboard, see the PEN*KEY Model 6400 User’s Guide
(P/N 961-047-093).
51-Key Keyboard
Your 6400 Computer has either a 51-key (left) or a 41-key (right) keyboard as shown.
Characters on the Keyboards
41-Key Keyboard
Unlabeled Key Colors:
Blue
Gold
The special characters and functions printed above the keys are colorcoded to correspond with the matching shift keys. The shift keys are:
[Green] The Green [SHFT] puts the keyboard into green shift mode.
[Gold] Press [Gold] plus a key to type a character or do an operation printed in gold
on the overlay.
[Blue] Press [Blue] plus a key to do operations printed in blue on the overlay.
The 51-key keyboard has two gray, unlabeled keys in the bottom row.
These are the keys’ functions when they are unshifted (in primary plane):
Gray key with “Z” printed above it is the letter Z.
Gray key with “SP” printed above it i s the Space key.
20 Native Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide
Using the 41-Key Keyboard
The 41-key keyboard has numeric keys in its primary plane. It has alphabetic keys, special characters, and function keys in its secondary plane.
Because a 6400 Computer with a 41-key keyboard does not have alphabetic keys, follow these procedures to change passwords and cold-start the
computer:
S Press [Blue] [3] or [F12] [3] to enter a “C,” [Blue] [F8] or [F11] [3] to
enter an “R,” then press “52401” to enter the password for the Set-up
Parms in the terminal emulations menu. Note that these are not case-sen-
sitive.
You can use one of two methods to type letters on the 41-key keyboard:
standard mode or alpha lock mode. When engaged, alpha lock mode
switches the alphabetic keys with the function keys. That is, it moves
lowercase alphabetic keys from their normal Blue plane to the primary
plane. It moves uppercase alphabetic keys from their standard SHFT, Blue
plane to the SHFT plane. Alpha lock provides a faster way to type a series
of letters because it reduces the number of key combinations. Alpha lock
modemovesonlythealphakeystotheprimaryplane.
Using the Terminal’s Keyboard—Chapter 2
6400 Tab Keys
To engage alpha lock mode press [Blue] [Gold]. Then, to type a series of
letters, press the correct key combination. The keyboard stays in alpha lock
mode until you press [Blue] [Gold] to unlock it.

function keys with the alphabetic keys. That is, function keys normally in
the primary plane ([F1] through [F12]) move to the Blue plane. Function
keys normally in the [SHFT] plane ([F13] through [F24])movetothe

37-Key Keyboard
Using the Terminal’s Keyboard—Chapter 2
The 37-key keyboard has standard numeric keys, an [Enter] key, and
user-defined function keys in its primary plane. It has alphabetic keys and
special characters in its secondary plane.
Because a terminal with a 37-key keyboard does not have alphabetic keys
in its primary plane, follow these procedures when using its firmware and
downloading software to it. The following chart describes how to type
letters on the 37-key keyboard.
S To access password-protected menus, press [Gold], [Black], [F12],
[F11], then type “52401” for the password; or press [Black], [F3],
[Black], then type “52401” for the password.
S To initiate the COLD START? menu option, press [F10] to answer
“yes.”
S To download software, hold down the [F1] key as you power up the
terminal to go into download mode. This is similar to holding down the
[I] key on the standard 57-key keyboard.

S Adjust the length and frequency of the audible buzzer, key click, and
error tone.
S Set the display screen size (the number of rows displayed and characters
per row) and contrast.
Number Keys [0] through [9]
Many menus have numbered options. Press the corresponding numeric
key to make a selection.
Once you make a selection and you remain at that menu screen, the option is highlighted, but you can select additional options. To deselect an
enabled option, press the number corresponding to that option.
Using the Terminal Emulation Menus—Chapter 3
Pressing a number may bring up a submenu. Use the submenu to further
modify the choice you made in the parent menu. After the modifications,
you may return to the parent menu to make additional selections. (This
depends on the menu and function.) Also, you may press a numeric key to
exit a menu or cold start the terminal. These situations are covered later in
this chapter.
Various menus require entering a number, but do not necessarily have

A Low Battery indication is ver y important to the operation of the terminal, letting you know that your terminal will stop operating shortly. Your
terminal should continue to operate 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on
how you use it. Data stored in RAM will be saved for approximately 30
days. However, you should avoid testing this limit.
Your terminal will retain its RAM data storage for up to 5 minutes with
the battery pack removed. It is always a good idea to replace the battery
pack with a fresh recharged pack immediately after removing the discharged pack. Without battery power your terminal will not operate, and
your display will be blank.

2) Barcode Parms (2415, 2425, 2435A, 2455, 2475, 248X)
The 2) Barcode Parms (parameters) menus designate whether you are using a bar code scanner and scan options.
Barcode Parms
1) Code 39 Encoded
2)
3) Concatenate
4) RS232 Stream
5) Stream Scan
6) Scan All Flds
1) Code 39 Encoded
By default, 1) Code39 Encoded is disabled. When you enable this option,
the key press sequences for Encoded Code 39 are used. For more information, see Appendix A, “Bar Code Scanning.”
3) Concatenate
Each bar code read is added to the end of the previous bar code read until
the 2415, 2425, 2435A, 2455, 2475, or 248X Ter minal meets a condition
forcing transmission to the host.
When this option is OFF, each bar code read is placed at the beginning of
the current input field. After a bar code is placed in a field, any subsequent
read replaces the first read.
Note: If you access the TE configuration menus when 4) RS232 Stream is
enabled, all RS-232 data received during this time is lost. Only the data
arriving from the COM1 port on the hand-held terminal is received.
4) RS232 Stream
If this option is enabled, the terminal watches the RS-232 port for activity
in which the terminal reads in the RS-232 data and sends it to the host.
This enables support for fixed-station scanners or scales that send only
RS-232 data without having the host send an extended command to enable the RS-232 port. Default for 4) RS232 Stream is disabled.
5) Stream Scan
If the scanned bar code is too big for the input field, the overflow information appears in the next field and continues until the entire bar code is entered. When this option is OFF, and the scanned bar code is too big for
the input field, the overflow information is dropped.
6) Scan All Flds (Fields)
When this option is selected, the scanner is enabled when the cursor is in
an input field. When this option is OFF, the host computer must enable
the scanner for each input field that requires scanned data.

4) BC Type Char
5) Stream Scan
6) Scan All Flds
7) More
1) Redundancy (6400, 59XX, 17XX, 11XX)
This option requires two identical scans of a bar code, one right after
another, before the terminal accepts the scan as valid.
2) Mod 10 Check
When you select this option, a check digit is added at the end of the bar
code after a good read for transmission to the host. The host can then validate the transmission data using the check. This feature is not needed with
modem transmission protocols.
1) Redundancy and
4) BC Type Char
are for 6400, 59XX, 17XX, 11XX
3) Concatenate is for 6400, 5055
The bar code number is divided by 10, until the number (or modulus) is
less than 10. If the modulus subtracted from 10 (remainder) is equal to
zero, then the bar code number is valid.
52 Native Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide
Using the Terminal Emulation Menus—Chapter 3
3) Concatenate (6400, 5055)
Each bar code read is added to the end of the previous bar code read until
the 6400 or 5055 Terminal meets a condition forcing transmission to the
host.
When this option is OFF, each bar code read is placed at the beginning of
the current input field. After a bar code is placed in a field, any subsequent
read replaces the first read.
4) BC Type Char (6400, 59XX, 17XX, 11XX)
This option adds a character associated with the bar code type at the beginning of the scanned bar code. See page 260 for bar code type characters.
5) Stream Scan
If the scanned bar code is too big for the input field, the overflow information appears in the next field and continues until the entire bar code is entered. When this option is OFF, and the scanned bar code is too big for
the input field, the overflow information is dropped.
6) Scan All Flds
When this option is selected, the scanner is enabled when the cursor is in
an input field. When this option is OFF, the host computer must enable
the scanner for each input field that requires scanned data.
7) More
This brings you additional scanning options that adjust scanning timeout
and characters sent before and after the scanned data.
S 1) Scan Timeout (59XX, 17XX, 11XX)
Use this option to adjust the scanning timeout period from 1 to 200
seconds. When using a proximity-detect scanner, you can shorten the
timeout period to speed up scanning while also reducing the duration of
errant scans. With a long-range scanner, you may want to increase the
timeout period to ensure suff icient aiming time.
Scan Timeout
Seconds
XXX
S 2) Scan PreChar and 3) Scan PostChar
Enter a hexadecimal value from 00–FF for the character to be sent preceding the scanned data or after the scanned data. The value of 20h
means that pre- or post-characters are not sent.

1) Host View Sze
The 1) Host View Sze option tells the terminal the format of display information sent from the host. The display viewing size equals 1920 (the
number of rows times the number of columns). The exception is with
5250 Terminal Emulation which has an additional row for error messages
and therefore has 2000 characters.
The default setting for Native Terminal Emulation is 120 columns by 16
rows (equals 1920). The default for VT/ANSI Terminal Emulation is 80
columns by 24 rows (equals 1920). The default for 5250 Terminal Emulation is 80 columns by 24 rows (25 with error messages).
The default for 3270 Terminal Emulation depends on what the original
setting was before changing to the 3270 Terminal Emulation. Remember
that the total characters must equal 1920 (number of rows by the number
of columns) unless using 5250 Terminal Emulation with error messages.
Enter a number between 1–80 to change the w idth. Press [En ter] to return

Note: The first character of 4) Device Name cannot start with a number
(0–9).
The following screen displays after a physical name is entered.
S 1) 5250 Allow Alias
If this is enabled, and your current device name returns an error in use,
then the terminal attempts to append a “$” (dollar sign) to the end of
your device name to initiate a session to your host. When disabled, the
device name is resent to the host for the host to send a FIN packet to
the terminal, causing the terminal to reboot. This continues until the
device name is no longer in use.
Allow Alias
1) 5250 Allow Alias
5) Allow NAWS (Negotiate About Window Size)
When enabled, the terminal will support Telnet option 31 if prompted.
When disabled, this option will return a “won’t do” message.
6) Skip FldExit
When this option is enabled, a field that would generate an error code of
“0020” (field ex it required) when [Enter] was pressed will now send the
field data.
The legacy TE application would send the entire field so a “7” entered into
a 3-character blank-filled field would transmit as “7bb”, a “12” wou ld
transmit as “12b”. The TE 2000 application strips the field fill char acters
so “7” will transmit as a “7”, “12” will transmit as a “12” and so forth.

S 3) Lock Error Msg
The TE 2000 cursor modes ensure that the cursor location of the screen
and its su rrounding data is visible. The 5250 error message line is typically not visible because the error message line 24 is too far away from
the cursor location. Enabling this option causes a 5250 Write Error
Code command error message to be visible by placing the cursor on the
error message line. When the RESET key is pressed, the cursor is restored to where it would have been if this option was not enabled (the
location specified by a 5250 Insert Cursor command) and the cursor
mode option then causes that area of the screen to be visible.
Disabling this option causes normal behaviour for the 5250 Write Error
Code command error message. The Write Error Code command error
message is displayed on the error message line of the screen and the cursor is placed at the location specified by the host Insert Cursor command. The cursor mode then causes the cursor area of the screen to be
visible.
