Introduction
The device supports data capture using:
• Integrated Imager
• Integrated Camera
• RS507/RS507X Hands-free Imager
• RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
• DS3578 Digital Scanner
• DS3608 Digital Scanner
• DS3678 Digital Scanner.
Integrated Imager
The device with an integrated 2D imager has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of barcode symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, PDF417, Digimarc, and 2D matrix code types.
• The ability to capture and download images to a host for a variety of imaging applications.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming cross-hair and dot aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a barcode, stores the resulting image in memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the barcode data from the image.
Operational Modes
The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pressing the Scan button.
• Decode mode - The device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its field of view.
The imager remains in this mode as long as you hold the scan button, or until it decodes a barcode.
NOTE
:
To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.
• Pick List mode - Selectively decode a barcode when more than one barcode is in the device’s field of view by moving the aiming crosshair or dot over the required barcode. Use this feature for pick
74
Data Capture lists containing multiple barcodes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or 2D).
Digital Camera
The device with an integrated camera based barcode scanning solution has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of barcode 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 barcode from many in the field of view.
The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a barcode, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.

DS3678 Digital Scanner
Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode, with a few quick trial efforts to master it.
However, consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
•
Range:
Scanners decode best over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from the barcode. This range varies according to barcode density and scanning device optics. Scan within range for 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 barcodes being scanned.
•
Angle:
Scanning angle is important for quick decodes. When the illumination/flash reflects directly back into the imager, the specular reflection can blind/saturate the imager. To avoid this, scan the barcode so that the beam does not bounce directly back. 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.
• Hold the device farther away for larger symbols.
• Move the device closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
NOTE
:
Scanning procedures depend on the app and device configuration. An app may use different scanning procedures from the one listed above.
Scanning with Internal Imager
To read a barcode, a scan-enabled app is required. The device contains the DataWedge app that allows the user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data, and display the barcode content.
To scan with the internal imager:
1. Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

3. Press and hold the scan button.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.
NOTE
:
When the device is in Picklist mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the crosshair or aiming dot touches the barcode.
4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the crosshairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot increases visibility in bright lighting conditions.

NOTE
:
Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The device repeats the steps required to take a digital picture (im age) of a poor or difficult barcode as long as the scan button remains pressed.

Scanning with Integrated Camera
To capture bar code data:
NOTE
:
When capturing bar code data in poor lighting, turn on Illumination mode in the DataWedge app. See the device
Integrator Guide for detailed information on configuring DataWedge.

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
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
97
Wireless
(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.
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 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5 mW and the expected range is 10 m (32.8 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.
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 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
98
Wireless
• Keep PIN codes private and do not store the PIN codes in the device
• Implement application-level security.

Application Deployment
Security
The device implements a set of security policies that determine whether an application is allowed to run and, if allowed, with what level of trust. To develop an application, you must know the security configuration of the device, and how to sign an application with the appropriate certificate to allow the application to run (and to run with the needed level of trust).
NOTE
:
Ensure the date is set correctly before installing certificates or when accessing secure web sites.
Secure Certificates
If the VPN or Wi-Fi networks rely on secure certificates, obtain the certificates and store them in the device’s secure credential storage, before configuring access to the VPN or Wi-Fi networks.
If downloading the certificates from a web site, set a password for the credential storage. The device supports
X.509 certificates saved in PKCS#12 key store files with a .p12 extension (if key store has a .pfx or other extension, change to .p12).
The device also installs any accompanying private key or certificate authority certificates contained in the key store.
Installing a Secure Certificate
To install a secure certificate:
1. Copy the certificate from the host computer to the root of the microSD card or the device’s internal memory.
See USB Communication for information about connecting the device to a host computer and copying files.
2. Go to

StageNow
StageNow is Zebra's next-generation Android Staging Solution built on the MX platform. It allows quick and easy creation of device profiles, and can deploy to devices simply by scanning a bar code, reading a tag, or playing an audio file.
The StageNow Staging Solution includes the following components:
• The StageNow Workstation tool installs on the staging workstation (host computer) and lets the administrator easily create staging profiles for configuring device components, and perform other staging actions such as checking the condition of a target device to determine suitability for software upgrades or other activities. The StageNow Workstation stores profiles and other created content for later use.
• The StageNow Client resides on the device and provides a user interface for the staging operator to initiate staging. The operator uses one or more of the desired staging methods (print and scan a bar code, read an
NFC tag or play an audio file) to deliver staging material to the device.
For more information go to: techdocs.zebra.com
.
GMS Restricted
GMS Restricted mode deactivates Google Mobile Services (GMS). All GMS apps are removed from the device and communication with Google (analytics data collection and location services) is disabled. It also provides enhanced security and privacy.
Use StageNow to disable or enable GMS Restricted mode. After a device is in GMS Restricted mode, enable and disable individual GMS apps and services using StageNow. To ensure GMS Restricted mode persists after an Enterprise Reset, use the Persist Manager option in StageNow. For more information on StageNow, refer to techdocs.zebra.com
