Problems While Configuring the Terminal (continued)
Problem Solution
You scan a configuration command, such as
Keypad Caps Lock, and nothing happens.
One or more reader commands, such as Change Configuration, may be
disabled, so that you cannot change the configuration. Enable all of the
reader commands and try again.
The terminal may be waiting for another command to complete the
configuration change. If you started by scanning the Enter Accumulate
command, you must finish the command by scanning the Exit
Accumulate command. For help, see Chapter 6, “Configuration
Command Reference, in the 2400 Family system manual.
Scan Enable Override to temporarily enable all of the reader
commands. When you are finished, remember to disable the override so
that your data is not interpreted as a command.

You scan a configuration command, such as
Keypad Caps Lock, and you hear three low
beeps.
If you are working in the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System, you
cannot scan configuration commands. Use the Configuration Menu to
change the terminals configuration, or exit the menu system to scan
configuration commands.
Check the command you are trying to scan. Make sure the command is
set correctly for the options and network communications you are using
with the terminal. For help, see Chapter 6, Configuration Command
Reference, in the 2400 Family system manual.
On the 2435, you scan a configuration
command to set one of these parameters and
hear three low beeps:
Controller IP Address (UDP Plus)
or Host IP Address (TCP/IP)
Terminal IP Address
Default Router
Network Activate
If the Network Activate command is enabled (RF network enabled) and
you are configuring the 2435, these IP addresses must define a valid
network configuration. For example, an invalid network configuration
would be a controller (or host) IP address set to 0.0.0.0 with the
network enabled.
To set these four parameters, follow these steps:
1. Disable the Network Activate (NA) configuration command.
2. Set the terminal IP address and the controller IP address or the host
IP address.
3. Set the default router address (if necessary).
4. Enable the Network Activate command.
You can change an IP address with the network enabled as long as it
still defines a valid network configuration.
