If the terminal is on a different IP subnetwork than the DCS 300 or host, then you must
set the subnet mask and default router.
Using the Icons to Monitor RF Communications
Once you have configured the devices in the RF network, you can begin using the
application on the T2425 to collect and transmit data via RF communications. If the
T2425 is communicating with your host computer, the terminal will connect and begin
running the application that shipped on the terminal.
As you use the T2425 to collect data, icons are displayed to help you monitor RF and
network communications on the terminal. Use the two icons shown in the illustration to
monitor communications between the T2425 and other devices in the RF network.

No communications.
The T2425 is not connected to an
access point. The Network Activate
command is disabled, or there is a
problem with the radio card and it is
turned off.
You need to enable the Network Activate
command. For help, see “Network
Activate” in Chapter 9.
No icons appear. No communications.
The T2425 is not connected to an

Make sure the access points are turned on
and operating. You may also be using the
terminal out of the RF range of an access
point. Try moving closer to an access point
to re-establish communications.
If the access point is on and you are in
range, you may need to configure the
terminal to communicate in the network.
