ying Case
When the gateway is used with a portable reader, it must be
protected against accidental bumps and drops with its carrying
case, Intermec part number 055121. The belt of the case snaps
around the waist of the user to provide simplified, out-of-the-way
operation. Since the LEDs are not directly visible when the case is
worn, the gateway must be configured to relay low battery warn-
ings to the reader. Refer to the RF System/9180 Controller User's
Manual or the RF System/9185 Controller User's Manual for more
information.
