VIPER-NET™ 3.10 BACKUP DIRECTORY FILE MANAGEMENT All of the Windows CE .NET system files reside in RAM (volatile memory) except for the Backup directory, which resides in FLASH (non-volatile memory). Therefore the contents of the Backup directory are persistent even if the terminal is re-booted or the battery is changed.
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Rechargeable battery packs are not initially charged. Therefore the first operation to perform is to charge them. See par. 4.1. NOTE CHARGING THE BATTERIES The battery autonomy varies according to factors, such as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, etc. When the batteries are low, the red LED positioned beneath the left lower corner of the display blinks and a warning acoustic signal is emitted.
VIPER-NET™ REPLACING THE BATTERIES To correctly replace the batteries, proceed as follows. Turn off the Viper-NET™ terminal. Press the lock button as indicated in the figure below: Remove the battery pack by pulling down the lower part of the handle:...
In order to guarantee an adequate operating autonomy, when replacing the battery pack the terminal checks the battery energy level. If the battery is not sufficiently charged, Viper-NET™ does not turn on (when pressing the ON button). In this case, either substitute the battery pack with a charged one NOTE (sufficiently charged) or insert Viper-NET™...
