4. Admin Mode and User Mode

The DT-07 can be operated in the Admin Mode or User Mode. In the Admin Mode, system integrators will have full administrative right to configure system settings and install / un-install applications. This operating mode is typically used in the initial setup stage and ongoing maintenance. In contrast, the User Mode has limited access right to the system with restrictions on certain operations. As system configurations are completely hidden in the User Mode, end users will only be able to run designated applications.

The following table summarizes the restrictions in the User Mode.

5.1 Turning Wi-Fi On or Off

To turn Wi-Fi on or off:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings >Wi-Fi.

2. Slide the Wi-Fi On/Off switch to the ON or OFF position.

Note: The Wi-Fi feature is turned on by default.

5.2 Setting Wi-Fi Boot Up State

To change the boot up setting:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi.

2. Click Menu to show the option menu.

3. Select Turn on at Boot.

4. Select the Wi-Fi boot up option.

On: Turning on Wi-Fi after boot up. Off: Turning off Wi-Fi after boot up. Keep last status: Follow the last Wi-Fi status after boot up.

5.3 Connecting to WLAN

To connect to a WLAN:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi.

2. Slide the Wi-Fi On/Off switch to the ON position.

3. Select the required AP on the right pane.

4. Input the password when prompted.

5. Select Lock Single Network checkbox to lock the device to the selected network.

6. Select Show advanced options to enter static IP settings/ Proxy settings if needed.

7. Click Connect.

5.4 Unlocking/ Disconnecting WLAN

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi .

2. Touch and hold the connected network on the right pane until a pop up menu appears.

3. Select Modify network.

4. Uncheck Lock Single Network, and then click Save.

To disconnect from the connected network:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi .

Version 1.0 19

2. Touch and hold the connected network on the right pane until a pop up menu appears.

3. Select Forget network.

5.5 Configuring Roaming Trigger Level

For multiple AP site, it is important to perform wireless site survey to determine the best placement of access points that provides the best signal coverage with minimum interference.

By default, the Roaming trigger level is –76dBm. When the signal is less than –76dBm, the device will start searching for nearby APs while obeying single SSID rule. Once an AP with stronger signal is identified (i.e. 10dBm or better), the device will roam across the APs transparent to the application and user.

To adjust the roaming trigger level:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi

2. Click Menu to show the option menu.

3. Select Advanced > Roaming trigger level.

4. Drag the slide bar to adjust the trigger level, and then click OK.

Note:

 It is suggested to set the adjacent APs to non-overlapped channels (e.g. 1, 6, 11, etc.).

 It is essential to carry out site survey to ensure there are sufficient overlapped signal coverage

areas for seamless roaming between two adjacent APs.

 Defining a trigger level as -60dBm may not achieve a good result as the device will need to find

an AP with -50dBm or better.

 It is recommended to define the roaming trigger level as –90dBm for single AP site. This

disables the system from searching for nearby AP, and thus saving battery power.

5.6 Configuring Periodic Keep-alive

The Periodic keep alive feature prevents the session from timing-out and terminated by the AP. By default, the keep alive period is set to 1 minute.

To change the periodic keep alive setting:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi.

2. Click Menu to show the option menu.

3. Select Advanced > Periodic keep alive.

4. Select the time interval required.

5.7 Configuring Auto Retry WLAN

When the device is out of signal range, the system will start searching for the designated network. To preserve battery power, the Wi-Fi feature of the device will be turned off automatically if it fails to find the network.

Version 1.0 20

The Auto Retry WLAN defines the time interval the system attempts to search and connect to the designated network after the Wi-Fi auto off. By default, Auto Retry WLAN is set to 2 minutes.

To change the retry time interval:

1. Select Application drawer > Settings > Wi-Fi.

2. Click Menu to show the option menu.

3. Select Advanced > Auto retry WLAN.

4. Select the time interval required.

5.8 Viewing Network Information

Data Encryption

Version 1.0 (Draft) 45

Card data can be encrypted to protect from unauthorized access. Data encryption can be done by MSR reader module hardware (hardware encryption), or at operating system level (software encryption).

Hardware encryption

Select MSR Encryption Enable checkbox to enable hardware MSR data encryption setting. Before encryption can be enabled, Key Serial Number (KSN) and Base Derivation Key (BDK) must be loaded. Once encryption mode is turned on, hardware encryption is enabled. For payment cards, encrypted data and masked clear text data are sent out.

Key management type: ‘0’: Fixed Key, ‘1’: DUKPT Key MSR encryption mode: TDES or AES encryption MSR KSN code: Key Serial Number (KSN) MSR Encryption code: Encryption key, or Base Derivation Key (BDK)

There are 5 security levels:

Level 0:

This is a special case where all DUKPT keys have been used and is set automatically when it runs out of DUKPT keys. The lifetime of DUKPT keys is 1 million.

Level 1:

By default, the MSR module is configured to have this security level. There is no encryption process, no key serial number transmitted with decoded data. It functions as a non-encrypting reader.

Level 2:

Key Serial Number and Base Derivation Key have been injected but the encryption process is not yet activated. The reader will send out decoded track data in default format. Setting the encryption type to TDES and AES will change the reader to security level 3.

Level 3:

Both Key Serial Number and Base Derivation Keys are injected and encryption mode is turned on. For payment cards, both encrypted data and masked clear text data are sent out. When the encryption is turned on, level 3 is the default security level.

Level 4:

When the reader is at Security Level 4, a correctly executed Authentication Sequence is required before the reader sends out data for each card swipe.

Version 1.0 (Draft) 46

Note:

Once the security level is changed to level 3 or 4, it cannot go back to a lower level.

Software encryption

Select Soft Encryption Enable checkbox to enable software data encryption, and enter the data encryption key in Software Encryption Code.

Note: Advance Encryption Standard (AES) is adopted as the encryption method for each track.
