Chapter 2 Getting Started the BHT and System Mode
STATUS (System Status Indication)
Turning on the system status indication displays the following icons in the bottom line of the LCD:
Indication Icon Description
Shift state of the keys
Appears when the keys on the keypad are shifted.
Alphabet entry mode
Appears when the BHT is placed in the alphabet entry
mode.
(If the alphanumeric entry system has been selected in
user programs, pressing the SF key will switch from the
numeric entry mode to alphabet entry mode.)
Appears when the communications link is established
with the CU-311.
Flashes when the BHT tries to communicate with the
CU-311 that has not been linked with the BHT.
Communications link
with the CU-311
(in LAN-support software
only)
Appear cyclically when the BHT receives no response
from the CU-311 or when it is waiting for the link to be
established with or released from the CU-311.
BHT-5000 (BHT-5000 Screen Compatibility Mode)
This compatibility mode makes the screen layout and key assignment of the BHT-300 series downward
compatible with the ones of the BHT-5000. Using this mode can minimize modification in source code to
run application programs written for the BHT-5000 on the BHT-300 series.
The BHT-5000 screen compatibility mode does not assure full compatibility. The transmission speed,
communications link type and others for the IrDA interface, for example, are incompatible. Fo
r
details, refer to the "BHT-BASIC Programmer's Manual."
Enabling the BHT-5000 screen compatibility mode automatically switches the curren
t
communications protocol to the BHT-protocol.
