Suspend/Resume Buttons<br />

To the right of the Status field are two buttons labeled Suspend and Resume. These<br />

control the status of the communication link between the <strong>Turn</strong>-<strong>Key</strong> Service and the<br />

device. Clicking Suspend causes the service to sever the link between it and the<br />

device. The status of the device will change to Suspended. <strong>Application</strong>s may<br />

suspend devices occasionally, to prevent them from sending data. While suspended<br />

the device will report that it is Offline. Once suspended, communications can be reestablished<br />

by clicking the Resume button.<br />

Device <strong>Data</strong><br />

Below the Status data field are three fields labeled Name, Serial #, and OS Ver.<br />

These show information that can only be gained by registering the device. The<br />

Name is the device's internally configured name. Serial is the serial number<br />

imprinted to the terminal at the factory, and OS Ver is the Version of the Operating<br />

System currently running in the device.<br />

Sync Time Button<br />

This button synchronizes the clock in the terminal with the clock on the host. Many<br />

applications function best when all the devices on the network share a common<br />

reference time. Unfortunately, due to slight variances in clock speed, they will<br />

periodically drift out of synchronization with one another. You may use this<br />

command to adjust all the terminals on your network to a common time.<br />

Alternatively, you can use the Get and Set buttons to the right of the Time field, to<br />

manually adjust the date and time of the clock in each device.<br />

Reset Power Button<br />

This button causes a power reset in the selected device. Be aware, that the device’s<br />

status will change to Busy for approximately 7-10 seconds, then to Unknown briefly,<br />

then back to Ready once the device is reacquired.<br />
