The “Ping Status” screen will show the M7100 handheld terminal trying to contact the
listed IP Address. Once the connection is made the M7100 Handheld Terminal will
continuously send packets of data to time the connection speed in milliseconds (ms). The
“Ping Status” screen will display the results of the ping process.
If the M7100 handheld terminal does not receive a response to the pinging, then the
above (right) screen will appear. It is very important that the M7100 handheld terminal is
able to communicate with the CommandLink™ RF communicator server PC. The “Avg”
transfer time in milliseconds and “PLoss” percentages is very important. High ping
transfer rates or failure to communicate with the server will make the CommandLink
programs un-usable on the M7100 handheld terminal.
The “Ping Server” function can be used to ping Access Points and other computers on the
wireless local area network. This is a useful tool in determining wireless network
connectivity. Like all computer equipment, the M7100 Handheld Terminal can not ping
to other equipment that isn’t connected to the currently specified local area network.
