IRDA Cam = ED-18 adapter

The device you see here is called an IRDA Cam. It has two purposes for the new handhelds:
  1. Used for charging the handheld when connected to an AC Adapter.
  2. Used for ED-18 transfers. The window at the bottom of the IRDA Cam needs to see the clear light bulb on the ED-18 tester.
**Make sure while doing a transfer nothing is obstructing the path between the window and the light bulb.

Tips/Tricks

Here are a few tips/tricks we have picked up and would like to share with you:

  • Pen Alignment: no matter what screen you are on, press the blue button then the ESC button (the ESC button is located on the top left corner of the keypad).
  • Handheld Admin. Password: when trying to adjust the configuration settings on the handheld you need an admin password. If you do not know this password or how to find it contact the Support team and we can walk you through getting the password.
  • Truck Password: when opening RMS it requires a password, if your handheld is not setup with a password just press Enter and it will bypass the password screen. If your handheld is setup to require a password and you don't know what the password is follow these steps to find the handheld password:
    • In Jericho click Maintenance
    • click Trucks
    • the 5th column should say password, the password correlates to the truck # in the first column
