Chapter 5: Settings Trigger Mappings • Tap on Start>Settings>System tab>Manage Triggers icon. 5.22.1 Trigger Mappings A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a driver or application, the module(s)– sometimes referred to as “trigger consumer(s)”–of the trigger source. Along with keyboard keys, trigger sources can also be grip triggers, external hardware triggers or software-based.
Chapter 5: Settings Trigger Mappings Show All Modules By default, the trigger mapping list only shows active mappings. Mappings for drivers or applications that are not currently active are not normally displayed. By checking this checkbox, all mappings, both active and inactive, are displayed.

Chapter 5: Settings Trigger Mappings Note: It is possible to map the same source to different modules (trigger consumers—for example, to both the Imager and Non-Decoded Scanner. If so, both devices/operations will occur simultaneously. This is not recommended in most cases, especially with devices such as Imagers or RFID Readers. It is also possible to map different sources to the same module (trigger consumer)—for example, two different trigger keys can be mapped to the RFID File System.

Max Number Barcodes This parameter specifies the maximum number of bar codes the imager will attempt to decode in an image. A maximum of 6 bar codes can be decoded at one time. Barcodes Must Decode This parameter specifies the minimum number of bar codes that the imager must decode in order to report success.
Chapter 5: Settings Imager Factory Defaults On Reboot The value assigned to this parameter determines whether or not the driver will restore the factory defaults to the imager device on the next reboot. Note: The driver will default the imager device on a ‘clean’ reset, regardless of the value of this parameter. Min Scan Duration This parameter defines the minimum amount of time in seconds that the imager will scan when the trigger is pressed and held down without successful decode.
Chapter 5: Settings Imager Fast Converge Note: “Auto Exposure” must be set to ‘on’ in order for this parameter to function. Keep in mind that while this parameter can improve imager performance, “Fast Converge” increases battery power consumption. Setting this parameter to on speeds the “Auto Exposure” process. It allows the imager to rapidly snap a number of bar code capture attempts while finding ideal values for gain, integration and illumination.
Chapter 5: Settings Imager Note: This feature assumes that you have reached an understanding about how the device operates in your application, and that, after a learning period, operators will get used to using the imager in one particular way. It also assumes that a trained operator will usually only have near miss scenarios. Constant Illumination “Constant Illumination” is used to reduce the intrusiveness of the device’s illumination on the observer.
Chapter 5: Settings Imager • Highlight an item, and tap on OK. When “Addendum” is set to Disabled, the scanner does not recognize an addendum. If this parameter is set to Optional, the scanner searches for an addendum and if one exists, appends it to the main bar code. When the parameter is set to Required, the scanner does not accept the main bar code without an addendum. Note: Setting “Addendum” to ‘Optional’ reduces performance.

Chapter 5: Settings Advanced Information • Type your PIN, and press [ENTER]. Note: If you exceed the number of allowable attempts, a PUK entry window is brought to the foreground. You’ll need to enter a new PIN number. Once the correct PIN or PUK is entered or if none was required, the modem is instructed to perform a GSM network registration followed by a GPRS attach. The main Wireless WAN dialog box reflects the progress of the initialization.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu • SIM is missing The SIM card is missing. After the SIM has been inserted a reset may be required. • SIM failure The SIM card is permanently disabled (e.g. because the wrong PUK has been entered too many times). A new SIM is needed. • Modem failure The modem did not respond to commands as expected. If a reset does not clear this condition, the modem may need to be replaced. • NDIS error An internal software error has occurred.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu • Tap on the OK button. While automatic connection mode is enabled, the Connect Data button in the main Wireless LAN dialog box changes to Disable Auto. To close the currently active connection (if any) and disable the automatic connection mode: • Tap on Disable Auto. Important: Automatic connection mode should not be used if applications other than the Wireless WAN user interface (e.g. Connection Manager) are expected to open and close connections.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu Important: For CDMA/1xRTT, automatic configuration is not available – connections must be configured manually. Under APN, the packet service access number must be entered (typically “#777”). In the following section, all the parameters that need to be configured for a connection (such as APN, user name, password, DNS server addresses etc.) are referred to as a profile. Every profile is identified by an arbitrary, unique name.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu • New – Tapping on the New button allows you to create a new profile. The name of the newly created profile must be different from all existing profiles. Also, the name cannot be Default. When the New Data Profile dialog box is opened, a proposal for a unique name is filled in the corresponding entry field.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu • Advanced IP – The Advanced IP button in the Show Profile and Edit Profile dialog boxes opens another dialog box that allows you to configure a static IP address as well as the IP addresses for the primary and secondary DNS and WINS resolvers. 5.36.5.2 Security Configuration The Security Configuration dialog box is called up through the Tools menu. Note: Security configuration is not available with CDMA modems.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu If unauthorized access to the device is a concern, the Require PIN on resume checkbox should be checked. In this case, you will be prompted whenever a PIN is required and the PIN is not stored. 5.36.5.3 Network Configuration Note: Network configuration is not available with CDMA modems. In the main Wireless WAN screen: • Tap on the Tools menu, and choose Network.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu 5.36.5.4 Driver Mode Configuration By default, the Wireless WAN driver is enabled (the Enable driver checkbox is checked). The driver must be disabled in order to access the modem directly (e.g. dial-up data, fax, or in order to manually submit AT commands to the modem for development, testing, approvals, etc.). In most cases, the Virtual WWAN serial port can be used and it is not necessary to disable the WWAN driver.
Chapter 5: Settings Tools Menu SIM, the Phone field remains empty. The modem serial number is called IMEI for GSM modems and ESN for CDMA modems. The SIM ID is sometimes referred to as the ICC ID (International Charge Card Identifier). Not all modems support the retrieval of the SIM ID. In particular, the Novatel Merlin UMTS modems and the Option Globetrotter modems do not support SIM ID retrieval. If the main menu shows an error status, at least partial modem information may be available.
Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu When the PDA enters suspend mode, the modem remains powered. If the iKôn PDA is not turned on again during the configured time, the unit briefly wakes up from suspend mode, shuts down the modem, and enters suspend mode again. The default mode is Enabled Keep on for 1 hour. At the cost of a slightly increased power consumption in suspend mode, the modes where the modem remains powered during suspend mode have several advantages.
Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu 5.36.6.1 New SMS Tapping on New opens a dialog box for sending a new SMS message. The recipient's phone number (to be entered in the To field) can consist of the digits 0 through 9, as well as the * and # characters, optionally preceded by one + character, indicating an international number (i.e. the country code follows immediately after the + character). By checking the Store message in Outbox field, a new message can be stored in the Outbox before being sent.
Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu most recently received message first. The list can be sorted by any other column by clicking on the corresponding column heading. Clicking the same column heading twice reverses the sort order. Pressing any letter or digit moves the highlight to the next message whose address begins with that letter or number. Note: The date and time formats can be changed through the Regional Settings in the Control Panel.
Chapter 5: Settings SMS Menu 5.36.6.4 SMS Configuration Tapping on SMS Configuration opens the SMS configuration dialog. The SMS Centre Address follows the same rules as the recipient's phone number in the New message dialog.
