Terminal LED Indicators and Charger
LED Indicators
The following information lists the majority of the possible states of the LED indicator on the
terminal. Click the link that best describes the state (blinking one color, flashing between two
colors, off, or solidly one color) and color (red, green, orange) of the indicator. Try the steps in
sequence, one at a time, until the problem is resolved. Do not skip one step in favor of a later
step. Do not continue with other steps once the problem is fixed. If the steps listed do not
solve the problem, contact Vocollect for technical support.
Blinking green
The terminal LED indicator has two blink-green patterns:
• Once a second: The terminal blinks green once a second when it is in sleep
mode and not in a terminal charger.
• Four times a second: The terminal blinks green four times a second when it
has been properly placed into a terminal charger.
The terminal can be removed from its charger when the LED indicator starts blinking green.
The LED indicator should blink green when the terminal sleeps. It should also blink green
when a task is being loaded. The terminal also will blink green during some parts of the
firmware loading process.
Warning: Do not remove the battery when the terminal is sleeping or you may lose all of
the data that has been collected.
What to do if the terminal is not blinking green while in a charger or when selecting a task:
1. The terminal may be busy. Wait a minute to see if it starts blinking green.
2. Make sure the terminal has been properly placed into the charger.
3. Clean the battery connector pins with a soft pencil eraser or cleaning brush, then put
the terminal back into the charger.
4. Reboot the terminal.
Blinking red
The indicator blinks red when changing operators using the operator button. It also blinks red
during a task load or while the terminal is busy performing some internal action, such as
changing the task. It also will blink red while in a terminal charger until it is ready to use, and
then it will blink green. The terminal also will blink red during some parts of the firmware
loading process.
Warning: Do not remove the battery or power off when the LED indicator is blinking red.
If the terminal is in a terminal charger, do not remove it from the charger when the LED
is blinking red.
Flashing red and green
An LED indicator flashing red and green means that the terminal is trying to get an IP address
from the server. If this continues, the terminal will eventually turn itself off.
1. Try turning the terminal on again.
2. Make sure that you have a fully charged battery on the terminal.
3. Make sure that the terminal is within range of an access point.
