Data Capture
Introduction
The device can be used with the following optional data capture accessories:
• RS4000 laser scanner
• RS5000 corded imager
• RS5100 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
• RS6000 Hands-free imager
• RS507/RS507X Hands-free imager.
Laser Scanning
The device with an optional RS4000 laser scanner has the following features:
• Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear and 1D code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation
• Adaptive scanning.
Scanning Bar Codes
NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the application and device configuration. An application may use
different scanning procedures from the one listed below.
Imaging
The device with an optional RS507, RS5000 or RS6000 imager has the following features:
• Omnidirectional (360°) reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear,
postal, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its
memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the
image.
52
Operational Modes
The optional imager supports two modes of operation. Activate each mode pressing the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the imager attempts to locate and decode bar codes within its field of
view. The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes a
bar code.
NOTE: To enable Pick List Mode use DataWedge. Pick List can also be set in an application using a API
command.
• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar
code is in the imager’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 (either 1D or 2D).
RS4000 Ring Scanner
The RS4000 ring scanner is a modular, wearable laser scanner that allows the operator hands-free bar
code scanning capability.

Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan/decode and a few quick trial efforts master it. However,
two important considerations can be used to optimize any scanning performance:
• 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 decode zone simply plots working range as a function of
minimum element widths of bar code symbols.
• Angle
Scanning angle is important for promoting quick decodes. 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 directly back. But don’t 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.
Data Capture
NOTE: Contact the Zebra Global Support Center if chronic scanning difficulties develop. Decoding of
properly printed bar codes should be quick and effortless.
Bar Code Capture with RS4000
To read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The device contains the DataWedge
application that allows the user to enable the scanner to decode bar code data and display the bar code
content.
1. Connect the RS4000 to the device. See RS4000 Scanner on page 125 for more information.
2. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded or DataWedge is enabled.
3. Press the trigger.
4. Aim the scan beam at the bar code.
Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. The Decode LED lights red to indicate that
scanning is in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the bar code was
decoded successfully.
5. Release the trigger.
55
Adaptive Scanning
The RS4000 contains the adaptive scanning feature that automatically adjusts the scan beam width for
rapid and easy scanning of bar codes from near contact to more than 200 inches away.
By default the RS4000 is set to wide scan beam width. When the user presses the trigger, the RS4000
determines the distance from the bar code. For close bar codes the RS4000 sets a wide beam width and
for far bar codes it sets a narrow beam width. The RS4000 uses distance, bar code type and material to
determine the correct scan beam width.
Data Capture

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 and requests 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 able to set up secure computing environments within their
companies, making proxy configuration essential. 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 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 m (32.8 ft))
communication and low power consumption.
Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (for example, files, appointments, and tasks)
with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.
The device supports Bluetooth Low Energy. Bluetooth Low Energy is targeted at applications in the
healthcare, fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. It provides reduced power consumption
and cost while maintaining standard Bluetooth range.
73
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 the 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.
The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 1 device power class. The maximum output power
is 7.5 mW and the expected range is 30 m (98.4 ft). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult
to obtain due to power and device differences, and whether in open space or closed office space.
Wireless
Security
NOTE: It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b
operation is required.
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 application-level security can be implemented
on a per-user basis. The Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedures required to
authenticate devices, and if needed, encrypt the data flowing on the link between the devices. Device
authentication is a mandatory feature of 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. The 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.
