Using the Suspend/Resume Key
The terminal’s Suspend/Resume key is the key on the top left side of the keypad.
When you press
to turn off the terminal, the terminal does not actually shut off but
goes into a Suspend mode. In Suspend mode, the terminal continues to power all
memory and turns off the power to most of the hardware. This mode is referred to as
“off” in the rest of this manual.
When you press
to turn on the terminal, the terminal either resumes exactly where it
was when you turned it off, or the terminal boots and restarts your application. Resume
is controlled through the Resume Execution command. For help, see “Resume
Execution” in Chapter 6 of the 2400 Family system manual.
Note:
The terminal displays the boot menu the first time you turn it on. At the boot
menu, press
to initialize the firmware and boot the terminal.
