Security Type: No Authentication (Open)

Open authentication allows any device to authenticate and then
attempt to communicate with the access point. Using open
authentication, any wireless device can authenticate with the access
point, but the device can communicate only if its Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) keys match the access point's WEP keys.
62 Skorpio™ X4
Settings
Security Type: WPA2-Personal

In case of pre-shared key (PSK) authentication, the access point
sends an unencrypted challenge text string to any device that is
attempting to communicate with the access point. The device that is
requesting authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it
back to the access point. If the challenge text is encrypted correctly,
the access point allows the requesting device to authenticate.
To create a profile with PSK authentication, follow the steps below:
1. Select the Security Type as WPA2-Personal
2. Select the Encryption Type
3. Enter the password in the Security Key field.
User’s Manual 63
Settings
Security Type: WPA2-Enterprise

This authentication type provides the highest level of security for
your wireless network. By using the Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP) to interact with an EAP-compatible RADIUS server, the
access point helps a wireless client device and the RADIUS server to
perform mutual authentication and derive a dynamic unicast WEP
key. The RADIUS server sends the WEP key to the access point, which
uses the key for all unicast data signals that the server sends to or
receives from the client. The access point also encrypts its broadcast
WEP key (which is entered in the access point's WEP key slot 1) with
the client's unicast key and sends it to the client.

Desktop Configuration Utility (DXU)

Datalogic DXU is a unified device configuration utility and firmware
update utility. DXU can connect directly to the Skorpio X4 that
connects either directly to a PC via USB or remotely over a network,
either via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. DXU reports information about currently
connected devices.
DXU can configure a wide variety of device parameters, including the

scanner and most decoding parameters, the touch screen and the
keyboard, interfaces such as NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB, and
Ethernet, device settings such as date, time, time zone, and power
management, and security settings such as password access. DXU
can also configure communication parameters between the
application that runs on a PC and the client applications that run on
the device.
DXU offers a method to print out barcodes that Skorpio X4 users can
scan to quickly connect to DXU, called Scan2Deploy. DXU also offers
the capability to create barcodes that can completely configure the
device by scanning specific configuration barcodes alone, without
connecting to DXU via USB or via a network. This feature may prove
88 Skorpio™ X4
helpful for configuring devices that operate in environments that

forbid the use of networked computers.
DXU offers remote control capabilities for remote troubleshooting,
allowing a DXU administrator an opportunity to remotely operate
the device to check settings, configure the device using its own user
interface, and to see what a user sees.
How DXU Works

DXU is really two applications working together. The DXU desktop
application runs on a Windows PC, providing convenient UI to
configure the Skorpio X4. An application runs continuously on the
device to extract current configuration settings and send them to
the DXU desktop application, and to receive updated settings from
the DXU desktop application and apply those configuration settings
to the device.
DXU configurations are stored as configuration files on the PC, and

are transmitted to and from the Skorpio X4 as XML web pages. XML
is a standard data format that is widely used for a variety of
applications on the internet. Some data is encrypted in the XML file
to protect your sensitive data from prying eyes, but most data which
is not sensitive is transmitted in plain text that can be easily viewed
and analyzed.
User’s Manual 89
DXU can connect directly to devices that are plugged into your PC via
USB, including those inserted into a powered dock which is
connected to your PC via USB. DXU can also connect to devices on
your network.
Ask your network specialists for more information.
Installation
The DXU desktop application must be installed on a Windows PC.
DXU Agent is already pre-installed on the Skorpio X4.

DXU Application Controls

Available Device List and Configuration
The Available Devices list displays devices which are either currently
connected, have been connected since launching DXU, or were
manually connected at some time in the past. You can refresh the
view to automatically show devices or hide devices which connect
while you work on another device. In general, they should appear
automatically as they connect.
By default, No Devices Available will display when no devices

announce themselves to DXU either when they connect via USB or
when they connect over a network. Simply connecting the Skorpio
X4 to a network, even on the same subnet as the PC running DXU,
will not automatically display as being available. The device must try
to connect to DXU, which sends an announcement packet to DXU.
This can be done by scanning Scan2Deploy barcode labels. However,
connecting a device to the PC running DXU via USB will
automatically display it in DXU. You will need to enter the DXU
control panel on the device and press the Pair button in order to
Automatic Discovery of Devices to properly function.
To configure a connected device, you simply click its button under
Available Devices to load its configuration into DXU.
User’s Manual 93
To return to the DXU main window, click the Back button (generally, a
leftward pointing arrow in a circle).
Refresh
This button manually refreshes the display of currently connected
devices. This can overcome problems with the automatic display of
devices as they connect, and it can remove devices from the list that
are not currently connected.
Add Device
This button opens the Add Device dialog box which allows you to type
the IP address of a device. This dialog box does not support DNS
naming of devices. You can also use a custom TCP port if you have
configured your device to use one in DXU Agent. For convenience, this
field pre-populates with your PC’s IP subnet. You need only to type in
94 Skorpio™ X4
the last number of your device’s IP address if it is in the same

subnet as your PC.
This dialog box allows you to manually connect to devices running

DXU Agent that are either inside your PC’s subnet or outside it. The
limitation is that devices on other subnets must be on a subnet that
is routable from your PC’s subnet. Consult with your network expert
for more information.
Once connected, devices that respond to DXU’s query over the
network will display in the Available Devices list.
Load Configuration
Clicking the Load Configuration button opens a standard file dialog
box that allows you to explore for and select a DXU configuration
file. Loading a configuration allows you to edit a device’s
configuration when the device is not connected to DXU. This also
allows you to save copies of this configuration to new locations or
file names, so you can edit a copy of the configuration while leaving
the original configuration unchanged.
User’s Manual 95
To load a configuration:
1. Click the Load Configuration button.
2. Explore to any folder where DXU configuration files are located,
then select any configuration file you wish. You can double-click
it to streamline opening it.
3. Click the Open button.
Note that the default location is your user directory on your PC, but
DXU remembers the last directory you opened a DXU configuration
file, and always starts in that directory the next time you wish to
open another DXU configuration file.
96 Skorpio™ X4
Simplified Deploy
DXU desktop can be configured to enable the Datalogic out-of-box
experience Simplified Deploy, using Scan2Deploy. With Simplified
Deploy you can automatically connect your device to the network
and provision it. The Scan2Deploy button on DXU desktop can be
used to print barcodes that allow factory reset (Android) or clean
boot (WEC7) devices to automatically connect to Wi-Fi, update their
firmware, configure the device, and install applications.
In order for Simplified Deploy to function:
• The PC where DXU desktop is installed must be accessible
from the Wi-Fi network.
• There must be a Manifest File, a text file located in the folder
C:\Datalogic\DXUManifests.
• A Simplified Deploy barcode must be generated and printed
using the Scan2Deploy button on DXU desktop.
Manifest File
Manifest Files are text .ini files indicating which firmware versions
to update devices to ([update] tag), which DXU configuration file to
apply ([config] tag), and which .apk (Android) and .cab (WEC7) file
applications to install ([install] tag). It is recommended that [update]
tags be in separate manifest files. You can specify more than one
DXU configuration file to apply and more than one application to
install.
Additionally, you can have more than one active manifest files on
the PC where DXU desktop is installed, each with its’ own Simplified
Deploy Barcode to be used by Scan2Deploy utility on the device. In
this way you can easily have devices provisioned for different tasks.
By default, firmware, configuration files, and applications are
assumed to reside in the C:\Datalogic\DXUManifests folder. If they
don’t, the Manifest File entry must specify the path.
User’s Manual 97

Scan2Deploy
Scan2Deploy allows the Skorpio X4 running DXU Agent to connect
using DXU Agent’s Scan2Deploy functionality by scanning a barcode.
There are two different Scan2Deploy buttons in DXU, and they have
different intentions and different scopes of functionality.
The Scan2Deploy button located on the main DXU page does not
require an active connection to a device to create a Scan2Deploy
barcode label. This button opens the Scan2Deploy dialog box
streamlined to create Scan2Deploy labels that can automatically
connect a device to a Wi-Fi access point on your PC’s subnet and to
automatically connect it to DXU, adding it to DXU’s Available Device
list.
Printing a Simplified Deploy Barcode

By embedding the IP address of the PC where DXU desktop is
installed, the security information for accessing the Wi-Fi network
and the name of the desired Manifest File, an encrypted barcode can
be printed for use by Scan2Deploy on the device.
To print this barcode, from DXU desktop:
1. Launch Scan2Deploy.
User’s Manual 99
2. Enter the Wi-Fi Configuration information so that the device can

connect to the network, including SSID and password.
3. Enter the Pairing Configuration, including the IP Address of the
PC which has DXU desktop installed, and the name of the
manifest file to be used. You can also create a New manifest file
as a template for either DXU configuration file or a firmware
update file. You could then edit the Manifest File .ini file in a text
editor, like Word Pad, to add applications to install.
4. Click the Print Preview button, enlarging the barcode view as
needed. And then print by clicking the upper left hand printer
button.
100 Skorpio™ X4
Printing Custom Configuration Barcodes

Outside of Simplified Deploy, the Scan2Deploy button located in the
Datalogic Configuration Utility window can also automatically
connect devices to Wi-Fi access points and to DXU. This window
also has another tab which controls the ability to include
configuration data in the printed barcodes. This version of
Scan2Deploy can fully deploy a device configuration to devices which
don’t have network access to DXU on your PC. When the Include
Unmodified Changes checkbox is selected, all configuration items
will be included in the barcode set. This option results in several
barcodes being generated as true Scan2Deploy labels. After
scanning the first label in this set, DXU Agent’s Scan2Deploy window
on your device will display how many barcode labels must be
scanned, and will display your progress in scanning them all. Once
they are all scanned, DXU Agent will apply the configuration changes
automatically, as if you had connected to DXU to transfer the
changes.
User’s Manual 101

While it is possible to generate a Simplified Deploy barcode using this

window, it has the additional flexibility presented in the Device
Configuration tab, which allows printing barcodes to configure the
device without the need of the PC with DXU desktop being accessible
from the Wi-Fi network.
Wi-Fi Configuration Tab
Barcode Type Menu

The "Barcode Type" menu allows you to choose which barcode
symbology that Scan2Deploy labels will be printed in. Each barcode
symbology has advantages and disadvantages which may benefit
your organization.
102 Skorpio™ X4
QR Code, Aztec Code, and Data Matrix are 2D barcodes that offer
high data density and larger capacity, but require 2D scanners to
scan them. PDF417 is a stacked linear barcode that offers moderate
data density and larger capacity than linear symbologies. Code 128
is a linear symbology that can be scanned by laser scanners, but its
data capacity is low, which may result in a great many individual
labels to be scanned in order to fully configure a device remotely.
Print Preview
The Wi-Fi Configuration tab offers a live preview of the barcode as
you select the barcode type and enter data into the dialog box’s
fields.
Save Button
You may save Scan2Deploy labels as graphic files, should this prove
convenient for including Scan2Deploy barcodes in an e-mail to a
remote office, for example.
Wi-Fi Configuration Controls

As with the other version of the Scan2Deploy dialog box, this group
of controls allows you to configure the automatic configuration of a
device’s Wi-Fi connection. Fields allow you to enter the SSID,
password, security method, and IP settings. If you select Static in
the IP Settings menu, additional field will appear allowing you to
configure a static IP address for the device that will scan these
Scan2Deploy barcodes.
If you configure Scan2Deploy labels with a static IP

address, do not have two different devices scan the
same label set, or an IP conflict will result. Consult
your network expert for more information.
WARNING
User’s Manual 103

Pairing Configuration Controls

These fields let you configure your connection to the PC you are
running DXU on. These fields are filled in automatically, but you can
change them to deliberately connect to another IP address where
another instance of DXU is running, for example.
Barcode Settings
As with the other version of the Scan2Deploy dialog box, this tab
allows to set the maximum size of each label by symbology. For
example, if you know that your devices can scan larger 2D labels than
DXU’s default setting, you can increase the size of your label so fewer
labels are needed to fully deploy your configuration.
Settings Window
The Settings window is opened by clicking the Settings button on
DXU main window. This view includes controls which should seldom
need to be changed, such as the language that DXU displays in, TCP
ports used to communicate with remote devices, and the About tab
that displays DXU’s version.
104 Skorpio™ X4
Language Tab
The Language tab allows to switch the language that strings in DXU
are displayed in. The default language is US English, but you may
choose Italian, Chinese Simplified, or Chinese Traditional. Additional
languages may be added later without notice.
Advanced Settings Tab

The Advanced Settings tab allows to change TCP/IP ports that DXU
uses to communicate several types of information with remote
computers that are being configured.
The Desktop UDP Server Port (a) and the Device UDP Server Port (b)
fields must be set to the same value as the matching ports on the
remote device to ensure communication and remote configuration.
The Device HTTP Server Port (c) field must be set to the same value
as the matching ports on the remote device to ensure
communication and remote configuration. The Device VNC Server
Port field must be set to the same value as the matching ports on
the remote device to enable Remote Control.

Update Firmware
You can update the Skorpio X4’s firmware from DXU. DXU provides
the following options:
• a Silent Install where no user interaction is required on the
device;
• a Force Update where the firmware is reinstalled even if the
device reports that it already has the same version installed;
• a factory data reset or an enterprise reset can be performed
after updating the firmware;
• the update can simply reboot the device without performing an
update.
DXU firmware update is not the only way to update the

firmware on the Skorpio X4. DXU’s firmware update
capability works only with connected devices. If you need a
NOTE method that can update firmware on many devices
remotely, especially if they are not connected to a network,
then other methods may suit your needs better. Please
consult your device’s user reference guide for other
firmware update methods.
Customarily firmware update is referred to as "update" on

devices that use Microsoft Windows operating systems,
and it is referred to as "upgrade" on devices that use the
NOTE Android operating system. These terms are used because
the creators of these operating systems use these terms,
but the terms essentially mean the same thing.
132 Skorpio™ X4
Silent Install
This option allows to perform an image update that does not require
any user interaction on the device. If cleared, the user will be
prompted to perform the update, but has the option to cancel the
update. This check box is not selected by default.
Force Update
This option allows you perform a full upgrade of the firmware
regardless of what is installed on the device. By default, the
firmware upgrade utility will compare the version of the image file
with what is already running on the device, and if they match it will
skip updating. This is done to save time and prevent inconveniences
for most users in the field. However, in rare circumstances a
firmware image can become corrupted in the field, and this option
allows a DXU administrator to perform a full firmware upgrade,
disregarding the version reported by the device.
Factory Data Reset After Installing Firmware

A factory data reset is a full reset of the device intended to return it
to factory defaults. This reset deletes all user data, settings and
installed applications, and resets the device’s real-time clock to its
default date and time. Data on microSD cards is not affected.
Enterprise Reset After Installing Firmware

An enterprise reset is much like a factory data reset, except that it
does not reset network connections (such as Wi-Fi settings),
custom desktop wallpaper graphics and splash screen graphics. In
every other way, it resets the device, including restoring flash
memory to factory defaults, removing installed applications,
deleting user data, and resetting the date and time to default levels.

Update Firmware on a Connected Device

Locked Web Browser Special Metatags

General Metatag Comments
A metatag is a special HTML tag that stores information about a Web
page but does not display in a Web browser. For example, metatags
provide information such as the program used to create the page, a
description of the page, and keywords relevant to the page.
As per the HTML specification, all metatags must be contained within
a <head> …
</head> tag set.
Also, the head tag set must be complete within the first 15K of the
web page.
The Datalogic Locked Web Browser defines some special metatags
that allow the web application to interact with the device:
In particular, the special metatags allow it to:
• enable/disable scan engine triggers
• enable/disable specific symbologies in the scan engine
• easily assign a key press to a javascript function.
Metatag settings of trigger enable, symbology enable, or DL_Key
assignments persist past the page in which they are loaded. The
settings stay in effect until they are changed by another metatag.
Trigger Metatag
DL_Triggers – "Enable" or "Disable" all triggers
If the page contains this tag, the triggers are enable or disable
depending on the "content=" value.
Example:
<meta http-equiv="DL_Triggers" content="Disable">
158 Skorpio™ X4
GetSerialNumber Meta-tag
DL_GetSerialNumber – Obtains the device serial number and sends
it as an argument to a customer’s javascript function.
Content – name of function to pass serial number to.
Example:
<meta http-equiv="DL_GetSerialNumber" content=
"Javascript:CustomerFunction">
When a page with this metatag is loaded, the content should be a
javascript function that receives one parameter, the serial number.
An example would be function CustomerFunction(SerialNumber).
Reboot – Warm Boot Device Metatag

DL_Reboot – Warm boot device.
Content – "OnPageLoad" – Warm boot immediately upon page load.
Example:
<meta http-equiv="DL_Reboot" content=" OnPageLoad ">
Exit Metatag
DL_Exit – Exit the Locked Web Browser.
Content – "OnPageLoad" – Exit immediately upon page load. If "Exit
password" has been enabled in the Locked Web Browser options,
the Exit password will be required before exit.
Example:
<meta http-equiv="DL_ Exit " content=" OnPageLoad ">

Decoding Metatags
Each decoding metatag has a possible content of "Enable" or
"Disable". The settings are valid for the entire page (enables/disables
each symbology).

160 Skorpio™ X4
Key Press Metatags

The key press metatags can be used to call JavaScript functions.
They have the name structure: "DL_Key_xxx" where xxx is the VKey
code.
Example:
<meta http-equiv="DL_Key_13" content="Javascript:CheckEnter();">
Assigning a key press via a DL_Key metatag overrides its use on the
page. For instance, when entering data in a text box a character
assigned as a DL_Key would not be entered in the text box. Instead,
the javascript action would occur.
Refer to the Microsoft website to find the list of all the possible Vkey
codes:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb431750.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa243025(VS.60).aspx
Because DL_Keys persist past the page in which they

were loaded, the DL_Clear metatag is provided to clear the
settings on subsequent page loads.
NOTE
User’s Manual 161

Scanning Metatags

User’s Manual 163

Autostart
The AutoStart program provides three functions:
• allows to create a list of applications (with optional command
line arguments) to run automatically before loading CAB files;
• automatically reinstalls specified CAB files when the Skorpio
X4 is cold booted;
• allows to create a list of applications (with optional command
line arguments) to run automatically after loading CAB files.
AutoStart launches each time the Skorpio X4 is rebooted executing
each line with the specified command line arguments. It will take into
account any AutoStart options at the beginning of the line.
Upon a Cold Boot, AutoStart installs all the CAB files located in the
\FlashDisk\CAB folder. If the CAB folder does not exist, no CAB files
will be installed.
AutoStart will then run the Autostart.ini from the \flashDisk
directory, executing each line with the specified command line
arguments. It will take into account any AutoStart options at the
beginning of the line.
Installing CAB Files

Copy any CAB files you want to install into the \FlashDisk\CAB
folder. These CAB files will then be automatically in-stalled in
alphabetical order the next time you start the device.
164 Skorpio™ X4
How AutoStart Uses Wceload
If you intend to create highly interactive installers, you

should either install the CABs manually or review the
section Interactive CAB Install on page 166.
NOTE
In certain environments, CAB files will be deleted after

execution. To prevent the CAB file from being deleted,
write protect the file before copying the file onto the
CAUTION device.
CAB files are installed by AutoStart using the Wceload.exe

application. The following table shows available command line
option:
Option Description
Specifies that you will not be prompted for any input during
the installation. If the CAB file is signed, any responses will
/noui
automatically be answered Yes. If the CAB is unsigned, then
any responses will be answered No.
/silent Suppresses dialog boxes during the installation.
Please refer to the Microsoft documentation on your device for

further details on Wceload.exe.
Sample:
\Windows\Wceload.exe /delete 1 /noui /silent
"\FlashDisk\CAB\<cab file>"
User’s Manual 165

Interactive CAB Install

If the CAB installer requires user interaction that must be performed
during the AutoStart CAB installation process, you can specify a
special file name to disable the silent mode installation. If this mode
is specified, the CAB file will be installed with Wceload without any
command line arguments specified.
An example of what AutoStart would execute is:
\Windows\Wceload.exe <cab file>
To force this mode of installation via AutoStart, rename the CAB file
to include a _ character before the .cab extension of the file.
Example:
File.cab should be renamed File_.cab to force AutoStart to
not install the CAB in silent mode. This specially-named CAB file
should be placed in the AutoStart folder with other CAB files intended
for installation on the next reboot.
166 Skorpio™ X4
Autostart.ini
A file named PreAuto.ini can also be created in addition to
or instead of Autostart.ini. PreAuto.ini is executed before
CAB files in the \FlashDisk\CAB folder are installed.
NOTE Autostart.ini is executed after CAB files in the
\FlashDisk\CAB folder are installed. The format for the
PreAuto.ini is identical to that of Autostart.ini.
Autostart.ini is a text file that AutoStart will run upon startup of the
Skorpio X4, and after any CAB files are installed. This file should be
placed in the \flashDisk folder. AutoStart will run the Autostart.ini
file on each reboot of the device.
Line Formatting
Each line of the Autostart.ini can consist of Autostart options, an
executable, and any command line arguments.
< Autostart option(s)> <full path to
executable> <command line arguments>
Sample:
- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc
The following table breaks down the sample Autostart.ini line:
Autostart
Full Path to Executable Command Line Arguments
Option(s)
- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc
Spaces must be placed between each component of the line in the

Autostart.ini.
User’s Manual 167

If the executable path is in a folder that contains spaces in the name,

quotes are required to distinguish what the actual executable name
is. The following is an example of this:
"\Program Files\ScannerApp.exe" /run
(valid)
\Program Files\ScannerApp.exe /run
(invalid)
The second line is an invalid line because there is no way to
distinguish the executable from the argument.
168 Skorpio™ X4
AutoStart Options
The table below shows the options you can use when writing a line
in the Autostart.ini file.
Description Character Comments
This may only be used as the
first character of the line. If the
Comment: This line will not
‘#’ OR ‘ ‘ (space) comment option is specified in
be executed.
the options elsewhere, it is
ignored.
Do not wait on line
completion: This will cause
the line to execute and ‘-’
immediately move onto the
next line.
This will halt parsing the
Query: Request user Autostart.ini until the
confirmation when running ‘?’ confirmation is answered. This
the executable. is intended for debugging the
Autostart.ini file.
Execute only on Cold Reset ‘!’
Execute only after a warm
‘%’
boot
Cold Reset Only: This will cause the line to execute only after a Cold
Reset.
An empty line will be treated as a comment line.

NOTE
User’s Manual 169

Combining Options
Autostart options can be combined together as shown in the
following sample:
?- \Windows\Pword.exe
This line would:
• request confirmation before executing the line. The next line
would not be processed before the confirmation is answered;
• run the next line without waiting on the current line to
complete execution.
Query Option
The query option is intended for use when debugging the
autostart.ini. When a line with this option is executed, the fol-lowing
dialog box will appear with the specified executable and command
line arguments. The populated fields shown in the AutoStart Execute
Query are described the next table:
Field Description
Line Number The line number in the script being executed.
Exe The executable as parsed by AutoStart.
Args The argument as parsed by AutoStart.
170 Skorpio™ X4
The fields may be broken up into multiple lines (as shown

in the example) due to limited space in the dialog box.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Device
Periodically clean the Skorpio X4 device using a soft cloth slightly
dampened with only water or Isopropyl Alcohol (70%). Do not use any
other cleaning agents (e.g. different alcohol, abrasive or corrosive
products, solvents) or abrasive pads to clean the device.
Dock Contacts Cleaning Procedure

All exterior metal contacts/connectors exposed to spills, dirt or
debris accumulation require periodic cleaning to ensure best
performance during charging and data transmission.
Use a soft, lint-free dry cloth or lens tissue to clean the product
(contacts and plastics). An antistatic cloth is preferable but you can
also use a cotton cloth. Avoid wool, synthetic cloths or other
materials that can cause electrostatic discharges.
If the contacts are very dirty, clean them with a soft cloth moistened
with a diluted non-aggressive cleaning solution or a diluted
isopropyl alcohol solution (20% maximum). A cotton swab may be
used only on hard-to-reach contacts.
Clean the contacts when you see traces of dirt or when you
experience solid connection issues between the terminal and its
dock (device not charging or intermittent communications). It is
however suggested to clean the contacts every 6 months (more
often if the environment is dusty).

bit-plus-parity code representing 128 letters, numerals, punctuation
marks and control characters. It is a standard data transmission
code in the U.S.
Barcode
A pattern of variable-width bars and spaces which represents
numeric or alphanumeric data in binary form. The general format of
a barcode symbol consists of a leading margin, start character, data
or message character, check character (if any), stop character, and
User’s Manual 241

Glossary
trailing margin. Within this framework, each recognizable symbology

uses its own unique format.
Bit
Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally,
eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data. The pattern of 0
and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning.
Bluetooth®
A standard radio technology using a proprietary protocol. The
onboard Bluetooth® module in the device is compatible with the 2.1
protocol with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR).
Boot
The process a computer goes through when it starts. During boot, the
computer can run self-diagnostic tests and configure hardware and
software.
Byte
On an addressable boundary, eight adjacent binary digits (0 and 1)
combined in a pattern to represent a specific character or numeric
value. Bits are numbered from the right, 0 through 7, with bit 0 the
low-order bit. One byte in memory can be used to store one ASCII
character.
CDRH
Center for Devices and Radiological Health. A federal agency
responsible for regulating laser product safety. This agency specifies
various laser operation classes based on power output during
operation.
242 Skorpio™ X4
Glossary
Character
A pattern of bars and spaces which either directly represents data or
indicates a control function, such as a number, letter, punctuation
mark, or communications control contained in a message.
Decode
To recognize a barcode symbology (e.g., Codabar, Code 128, Code 3 of
9, UPC/EAN, etc.) and convert the content of the barcode scanned
from a visual pattern into electronic data.
Density (Barcode Density)

The number of characters represented per unit of measurement
(e.g., characters per inch).
Depth of Field (DOF)

The portion of a scene that appears acceptably sharp in the image.
Although a lens can precisely focus at only one distance, the
decrease in sharpness is gradual on each side of the focused
distance, so that within the DOF, the unsharpness is imperceptible
under normal viewing conditions.
Dock
A dock is used for charging the terminal battery and for
communicating with a host computer, and provides a storage place
for the terminal when not in use.
ESD
Electro-Static Discharge
Ethernet
The standard local area network (LAN) access method. A reference
to "LAN", "LAN connection" or "network card" automatically implies
Ethernet. Defined by the IEEE as the 802.3 standard, Ethernet is

used to connect computers in a company or home network as well as

to connect a single computer to a cable modem or DSL modem for
Internet access.
Firmware
A software program or set of instructions programmed on a
hardware device. It provides the necessary instructions for how the
device communicates with the other computer hardware. Firmware
is typically stored in the flash ROM of a hardware device. While ROM
is "read-only memory," flash ROM can be erased and rewritten
because it is actually a type of flash memory.
Flash Memory

an intense light source. Light from a laser is all the same frequency,
unlike the output of an incandescent bulb. Laser light is typically
coherent and has a high energy density.
Light Emitting Diode (LED)

A low power electronic light source commonly used as an indicator
light. It uses less power than an incandescent light bulb but more
than a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

A display that uses liquid crystal sealed between two glass plates.
The crystals are excited by precise electrical charges, causing them
to reflect light outside according to their bias. They use little
electricity and react relatively quickly. They require external light to
reflect their information to the user.
MIL
1 mil = 1 thousandth of an inch.
Null Modem Cable

RS-232 serial cable where the transmit and receive lines are
crosslinked. In some cables there are also handshake lines
crosslinked. In many situations a straight through serial cable is
used, together with a null modem adapter. The adapter contains the
necessary crosslinks between the signals.

Scanner
An electronic device used to scan barcode symbols and produce a
digitized pattern that corresponds to the bars and spaces of the
symbol. Its three main components are:
• Light source (laser or photoelectric cell) - illuminates a barcode.
• Photodetector - registers the difference in reflected light (more
light reflected from spaces).
246 Skorpio™ X4
Glossary
• Signal conditioning circuit - transforms optical detector

output into a digitized bar pattern.
SDK
Software Development Kit.
Symbol
A scannable unit that encodes data within the conventions of a
certain symbology, usually including start/stop characters, quiet
zones, data characters and check characters.
Symbology
The structural rules and conventions for representing data within a
particular barcode type (e.g. UPC/EAN, Code 39, PDF417, etc.).
Toggle key
Pressing a toggle key activates the state. The state remains active
until the toggle key is pressed again.
USB
Universal Serial Bus. Type of serial bus that allows peripheral
devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be
easily connected to a computer. A "plug-and-play" interface, it
allows a device to be added without an adapter card and without
rebooting the computer (the latter is known as hot-plugging). The
USB standard, developed by several major computer and
telecommunications companies, supports data-transfer speeds up
to 12 megabits per second, multiple data streams, and up to 127
peripherals.
Visible Laser Diode (VLD)

A solid state device which produces visible laser light.

usually provides a connection through an access point to the wider
internet. This gives users the mobility to move around within a local
coverage area and still be connected to the network.
WPAN
A Wireless Personal Area Network is a personal area network - a
network for interconnecting devices centered around an individual
person's workspace - in which the connections are wireless. Typically,
a wireless personal area network uses some technology that permits
communication within about 10 meters - in other words, a very short
range.
