Frequently Asked
Questions

My RFID ICODE handheld interface does not respond when I press the
power button.

• Is the unit in Suspend mode?
• If battery-powered, check the batteries.
• Are all cables connected properly:

– Is the power supply plugged into an active AC outlet?
– Is the power connector securely plugged into the RFID ICODE

handheld interface?

I changed my system settings, but when I turn on the RFID ICODE
handheld interface, my settings are gone.

• You must save the registry after making any system or configuration

changes. See

Manually Saving the Persistent Registry

on

.

I transferred files to the RFID ICODE handheld interface from my host
computer, but when I turn on the RFID ICODE handheld interface my
transferred files are missing.

• To store transferred files permanently, you must file copy the files into

internal flash memory or a compact flash card.

Occasionally, transferred files can be hidden from view, double-click My
Computer, select Options from the View menu and clear all boxes.

I cannot connect to the development system using ActiveSync.

• Did you install ActiveSync using the Administrator account?
• Check the cable connections.
• Check the serial communications configuration.
• Make sure the correct COM port is available.
• In ActiveSync, check the Connection Settings for the connection type you

are using (USB, Serial or Ethernet).

The screen is too light or too dark.

• Adjust the brightness via the brightness control in the Control Panel.

The stylus is not responding properly.

• The screen is not calibrated correctly to interpret the screen taps. You need

to recalibrate the screen.
