INTRODUCTION
The NRT202 data terminal is a hand-held wireless keypad and display for entry of numeric data. This terminal provides the primary data entry method of the NOMAD system.
Data entry is guided by menus displayed on the graphic display.
OOANRT202
Any modification or changes made to this device, unless explicitly
The terminal is powered by rechargeable batteries with a built in charger that draws DC power from a charging adapter. In an emergency, the rechargeable battery may be replaced by standard alakaline batteries providing no attempt is made to charge the unit while fitted with the non­rechargeable battery.
The terminal does not have to be in radio range for data entry to take place. All data entered is stored in the terminals own memory (the memory is maintained even if the battery is discharged) and then sent to the NOMAD system whenever there is a good communication link. To the operator this is a seamless process. This is a key strength of the NOMAD system ­essential operation is guaranteed regardless of sporadic radio interference.

SETTING UP A TERMINA
Before a terminal can be used on the NOMAD network it must be assigned a node number so that the system can distinguish it from other terminals in the system. This will also clear the memory of the terminal and inform the system that all relevant menus should be uploaded into the terminal.
3.1
ENTERING A NODE NUMBER
Every terminal on a given system must be uniquely identified by a node num
ber. Entering a node number on a terminal also initialises it for use on the system by clearing the terminals memory and requesting a full update from the system of all menus.

After inserting the batteries or removing the terminal from its charging station a startup message is displayed.
To set the node number, press the 3 and the 9 keys simultaneously while this message is displayed. The prompt Node ? will be shown.
The node number is
entered as 5 decimal digits: xyzzz
zzz = the node number. y = the language. x = the system number.
The node number itself can be in the range 1 to 231. It is these three digits that identify the terminal on the system.

PERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The language number can be in the range 0 to 3 and indicates which language the menus should be. The default system language is 0. Additional languages (up to three) can be defined in the system setup for NOMAD and individual nodes then initialised to one of these. This way employees Note that to change language the terminal has to re-initialised and its memory cleared as above. If a language number is entered that hasn t been defined in the NOMAD system then the default language is used.
The system number can be in the range 0 to 3. The default system number is 0. Different system numbers can be entered in the Radionet application and a terminal will only communicate with a system on its own number. This allows adjacent
of different languages may work on the system side by side.
systems to work independently.

After entering the node number as above press the ENT key. The terminal will then initialise its memory after which the startup message will be displayed again.

CHANGING OPERATING M
The terminal can be set to be used by an individual or by a group. The normal mode after initialisation is for individual use.
Multi
-user mode is intended for the situation where a supervisor is entering in data for several employees. It allows the operator number and time to be set
for each data entry.
The mode is changed in a similar fashion to setting the node above. During the startup screen press the 4 and the CLR keys simultaneously. Each time this is performed the mode will toggle between normal and multi-
