Regulatory Compliance and Safety

Bluetooth, Health and Authorization for use

Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Bluetooth devices. The energy levels of these emissions however are far less than the electromagnetic energy emissions from wireless devices such as mobile phones. Bluetooth devices are safe for use frequency safety standards and recommendations. The use of Bluetooth devices may be restricted in some situations or environments for example:

On board of airplanes, or

·In an explosive environment, or

·In case the interference risk to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful

In case the policy regarding the use of Bluetooth devices in specific organizations or environments (e.g. airports, hospitals, chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings etc.) is not clear, please ask for authorization to use these devices prior to operating the equipment.

The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination. The firmware setting is not accessible by the end user.

Cumplimiento normativo y seguridad

Funcionamiento y autorización para uso de BLUETOOTH inalámbrica

Los dispositivos BLUETOOTH inalámbricos emiten energía de radiofrecuencia electromagnética. Sin embargo, los niveles de energía de estas emisiones son mucho menores a las emisiones de energía electromagnética de los dispositivos inalámbricos como los teléfonos. Los dispositivos BLUETOOTH inalámbricos son seguros para usar estándares y recomendaciones de seguridad de frecuencia. El uso de dispositivos BLUETOOTH inalámbricos puede ser restringido en algunas situaciones o entornos, por ejemplo:

A bordo de aviones o

En un ambiente explosivo o

En caso de que se perciba o se identifique como perjudicial el riesgo de interferencia con otros dispositivos o servicios.

En caso de que la política en cuanto al uso de dispositivos BLUETOOTH inalámbricos en organizaciones o entornos específicos (como aeropuertos, hospitales, plantas industriales químicas, petroleras o de gas, edificios privados, etc.) no esté clara, solicite autorización para el uso de los dispositivos antes de utilizar el equipamiento.

La disponibilidad de algunos canales específicos y/o bandas de frecuencia operativa depende del país, y el firmware se programa en la fábrica para que coincida con el destino meta. El usuario final no puede acceder a la configuración de firmware.

The maximum performance for wireless is derived from Bluetooth 2.0 specifications. Actual performance can vary, including lower wireless network capacity, data throughput rate, range and coverage. Performance depends on many factors, conditions and variables, including distance from the access point, volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, operating system used, mix of wireless products used, interference and other adverse conditions.

Avis de non-responsabilité concernant les appareils sans fil

Les performances maximales pour les réseaux sans fil sont tirées des spécifications de la norme

IEEE 802.11. Les performances réelles peuvent varier, notamment en fonction de la capacité du réseau sans fil, du débit de la transmission de données, de la portée et de la couverture. Les performances dépendent de facteurs, conditions et variables multiples, en particulier de la distance par rapport au point d’accès, du volume du trafic réseau, des matériaux utilisés dans le bâtiment et du type de construction, du système d’exploitation et de la combinaison de produits sans fil utilisés, des interférences et de toute autre condition défavorable.

• Establishing an adhoc connection.

• Installing a network driver.

Install USB Driver

1. Go to “Install USB Driver (only)” on page 2-39 and follow Steps 1 through 10.

Establish Adhoc Connection

An ad hoc network is a temporary connection between computers and devices used for a specific purpose, such as printing documents from a Brady printer. Ad hoc networks can only be wireless.

1. Open the Brady Network Card Configuration Utility by choosing:

Start>Programs>Brady>Brady Network Card>Brady Network Card

Print Energy

Output Settings

Output Settings let you set the print energy and print speed. You can also set when you want to tear/cut the label, set mirror printing on or off and change the horizontal and vertical offset.

Note: If password protection has been implemented, you will need to enter the password to have access to these functions.

Print Energy

Optional print energy settings are set automatically by the smart cell for the installed media and should only be changed if you are experiencing problems. For example, if your printing is spotty, you may want to increase the print energy to make sure more of the ribbon ink transfers to the label. However, if your ribbon is sticking or tearing during printing, the heat energy may be too high and should be reduced.

CAUTION!

Constantly printing at high energy levels may cause printer jams or other printing errors and may reduce the overall life of your printhead.

To adjust the print energy:

1. Press to go to the navigation menu.

2. Press S or T to scroll to Output Settings.

3. Press to go to the submenu.

4. Press T to scroll to Print Energy, then press .

Note: The selected print energy setting will stay in effect for all subsequent print jobs with the currently installed media. When new media is installed, the print energy level is reset to the default setting. The print energy level is also reset by rebooting the system.

Text (font)

Only some True Type fonts are supported. All bitmap and scalable fonts will default to Arial so there will be output on the label (exception is CG Times Family font, which will be mapped to Times New Roman). An entry will be made into the error log.

The CG Times Family font is specified by the sA0-sAz

Parameter in the label definition command.
