Using Label Vista for Wireless Configuration
Label Vista can also be used to configure the various versions of Mobile Wireless Printers. A Wireless
Configuration Guide is available in the Zebra Web site at: http://www.zebra.com
Power Management
The printer contains the following power management features:
1. Synchronized On/Off control via DTR line from the attached host (DTR On/Off Control).
2. Programmable inactivity timeout.
3. Programmable low-battery timeout.
4. Shutdown command.
5. Enters low-power mode when idle.
SYNCHRONIZED ON/OFF CONTROL VIA PRINTER’S DSR LINE
The DSR line is an input to the printer and is controlled by the attached host’s DTR line. The DSR line
controls the power on/off and the operation of the short-range radio module.
1.Power On/O Control
A low (inactive) to high (active) transition on this line will cause the printer to turn ON. A high (active)
to (low) transition on this line will cause the printer to turn OFF only if it is configured to do so. The
factory default configuration enables power-off on high to low transition on DSR. This setting can be
changed using the MP Utilities program.
NOTE: A minimum of 500 milliseconds delay is required after DTR has been set high to allow the printer to power up and fully
initialize prior to sending data. This is true regardless of the state of CTS if hardware handshaking is used. Failure to provide this
delay may cause missed characters at the start of the le.
The printer will stay ON for as long as DSR is high (active) unless it reaches low-battery shut down point,
or it receives a command to shut down. Please note that the inactivity time-out is disabled while DSR
is high (active).
2. Short-Range Radio Control
The short range radio is enabled when DSR line is low (inactive) or when the host-to-printer cable is
continued
