Decode Mode: In this mode, the TC8000 attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of view. The imager remains in this mode as long as you hold the scan button, or until it decodes a bar code.

•

Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in the TC8000’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair center dot over the required bar code to decode only that bar code. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple bar codes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one bar code type (either 1D or 2D).

Digital Camera

The device with an integrated camera based bar code scanning solution has the following feat ures:

Page 55

•

Omnidirectional reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, QR, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.

•

Cross-hair reticle for easy point-and-shoot operation.

•

Picklist mode to decode a particular bar code from many in the field of view.

The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a bar code, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.

Scanning Considerations

Scanning consists of; aim, scan and decode. Scanning performance can be optimized by considering the ra nge and the scanning angle:

•

Range Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range (minimum and maximum distances from

the bar code). This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics. Scanning within range brings quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents

decodes. Move the scanner closer and further away to find the right working range for the bar codes being scanned. However, the situation is complicated by the availability of various integrated scanning modules. The best way to specify the appropriate working range per bar code density is through a chart called a decode zone for each scan module. A de code zone simply plots working range as a function of minimum element widths of bar code symbols.

Data Capture 3 - 3

•

Angle The scan angle is important for optimizing decode performance. When laser beams reflect directly back into

the scanner from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner. To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce dir ectly back. But do not scan at too sharp

an angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice quickly shows what tolerances to work within.

NOTE

Contact the Zebra Support if chronic scanning difficulties develop. Decoding of properly printed bar codes should be quick and effortless.

Bar Code Capture with Laser Scanner

To read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The TC8000 contains the DataWedge application that allows the user to enable the scanner to decode bar code data and display the bar code content. See DataWedge

on page 3-14 for information on enabling DataWedge.

CHAPTER 4 WIRELESS

Wireless Local Area Networks

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) allow the TC8000 to communicate wirelessly inside a building. Before using the TC8000 on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required hardware to run the WLAN (sometimes known as infrastructure). The infrastructure and the TC8000 must both be properly configured to enable this communication.

Refer to the documentation provided with the infrastructure (access points (APs), access ports, switches, Radius servers, etc.) for instructions on how to set up the infrastructure.

Once the infrastructure is set up to enforce the chosen WLAN security scheme, use the Wireless & networks settings configure the TC8000 to match the security scheme.

The TC8000 supports the following WLAN security options:

•

Configuring for a Proxy Server

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client.

It is important for enterprise customers to be ab le to set up secu re computing environm ents within their companies, and proxy configuration is an essential part of doing that. Proxy configuration acts as a security barrier ensuring that the proxy server monitors all traffic between the Internet and the intranet. This is normally an integral part of security enforcement in corporate firewalls within intranets.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth-equipped devices can communicate without wires, using frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) radio frequency (RF) to transmit and receive data in the 2.4 GHz Industry Scientific and Medical (ISM) band (802.15.1). Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (10 meters (32.8 feet)) communication and low power consumption.

Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.

Adaptive Frequency Hopping

Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with Bluetooth voice. All devices in the piconet (Bluetooth network) must be AFH-capable in order for AFH to work. There is no AFH when connecting and discovering devices. Avoid making Bluetooth connections and discoveries during critical 802.11b communications. AFH for Bluetooth consists of four main sections:

•

Channel Classification - A method of detecting an interference on a channel-by-channel basis, or

pre-defined channel mask.

•

Link Management - Coordinates and distributes the AFH information to th e rest of the Bluetooth network.

•

Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively reducing the number of hopping channels.

•

Channel Maintenance - A method for periodically re-evaluating the channels.

When AFH is enabled, the Bluetooth radio “hops around” (instead of through) the 802. 11b high-rate channels. AFH coexistence allows Enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.

Page 78

4 - 12 TC8000 User Guide

The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5 mW and the expected range is 10 meters (32.8 ft.). A defin ition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain due to power and device differences, and whether one measures open space or closed office space.

NOTE

It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b operation is required.

Security

The current Bluetooth specification defines security at the link level. Application-level security is not specified. This allows application developers to define security mechanisms tailored to their specific need. Link-level security occurs between devices, not users, while applic at ion -le vel security can be implemented on a per-user basis. The Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedure s required to auth enticate devices, and if needed, encrypt the data flowing on the link between the device s. Device authentication is a mandatory feature o f Bluetooth while link encryption is optional.

Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key used to authenticate the devices and create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being paired generates the initialization key . T he PIN is never sent over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack responds with no key when a key is requested (it is up to user to respond to the key request event). Authentication of Bluetooth devices is based-upon a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allows for a PIN or passkey used to create other 128-bit keys used for security and encryption. The encryption key is derived from the link key used to authenticate the pairing devices. Also worthy of note is the limited range and fast frequency hopping of the Bluetooth radios that makes long-distance eavesdropping difficult.

Recommendations are:

•

Perform pairing in a secure environment

•

Keep PIN codes private and do not store the PIN codes in the device

•

Implement application-level security.

Bluetooth Profiles

The device supports the following Bluetooth services:

•

Service Discovery Protocol (SDP) - Handles the search for known and specific services as well as general

services.

•

Serial Port Profile (SPP) - Allows use of RFCOMM protocol to emulate serial ca ble connection between two

Bluetooth peer devices. For example, connecting the device to a printer.

•

Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) - Allows the device to stream stereo-quality audio to a

wireless headset or wireless stereo speakers.

•

Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) - Allows the device to control A/V equipment to which a user
