This chapter provides basic instructions for unpacking and inspecting
the CE5320 handheld. It also gives instructions for setting up the
CE5320 handheld and becoming familiar with the keyboard and display.
This chapter also provide help to get started with your CE5320 handheld
so that you can begin collecting information from the field and
exchanging information with the host computer.
In addition, this chapter gives procedures for
changing the system
settings, which affects how th
e handheld displays and accesses data.
Although these settings are preset by Neptune to meet the needs of most
meter reading processes, you can change some of the settings so that
they better suit your needs.
Determining the System Configuration
Although the handheld requires no installation, you do need to connect
the unit to a power supply to charge its battery and to a host computer to
allow it to communicate. How you make these connections depends
upon how you have configured your meter reading system.
The CE5320 handheld has one basic system configuration that is used
for local
communications. A communication cradle is the most
commonly used method to charge and exchange
data with a handheld.
See “Setting Up the CE5320,” on page 3-3. With this configuration,
If you want to set up and configure the Nomad handheld, see “Using the Nomad
Handheld,” on page 4-1
