1.1 SKORPIO X3 DESCRIPTION

The Skorpio X3 rugged mobile computer is particularly suitable for mobile commerce

solutions in the retail environment both on store shelves and in the stock room.

Thanks to one of the best ergonomic designs ever seen on the market, it reduces

operator fatigue with no compromise in terms of reliability and robustness, resisting

harsh environments, multiple drops, strong shocks and repetitive tumbles.

The Skorpio X3 pistol grip version takes advantage of the best handle and trigger in

the warehouse industry. Compact size and light weight combine to offer excellent

balance, and superior handling.

Skorpio X3’s powerful processing efficiency derives from a dual processor

architecture composed of microprocessor XScale PXA310 @ 624 MHz and a Cortex-

M3, 32 bit @ 72 MHz. coprocessor Processing power combined with 256 MB RAM &

and 512 MB Flash running Windows Embedded CE 6 r3 make for the best

performance and flexibility in this market.

Skorpio X3™ offers the unique feature of integrated data capture technology

combined with “green spot” feedback (Datalogic patent), providing a ”good read”

green dot directly on the code, where the operator usually tends to be looking. Many

features work together to facilitate easier and faster reading, such as 1D laser and

2D imager bar code readers with Green Spot. An inclined scan engine to allows the

display to be seen while scanning bar codes, with no need to turn the wrist

awkwardly while scanning.

Skorpio X3 display is a TFT / Transflective color LCD, QVGA, with LED backlight and

integrated touch screen, 81 mm (3.2 in) diagonal which means it is the largest

standard resolution display (and the only one for the market today) in this class of

products.

Skorpio X3 wireless communication capabilities (Bluetooth®, IEEE 802.11a/b/g)

enable fast transactions and complete interaction with information systems including

the newest RF security protocols such as WPA™ and WPA2™. Moreover, Cisco

Compatible Extensions CCX V4 certification permits all the advantages offered by

the Cisco WLAN infrastructure to be exploited.

BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE

2 BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE

Rechargeable backup batteries and battery packs are not initially

charged. Therefore the initial operation to perform is to charge them.

See below.

CAUTION

By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid

damage due to excessive draining.

Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible

risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.

2.1 CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

NOTE

The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such

as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life,

storage, environmental conditions, etc.

The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates when the battery pack is low.

You may recharge your battery pack by connecting a standard Micro-USB wall

charger directly to the Skorpio X3 Micro-USB charging port.

The Micro-USB port can also be used to charge the Skorpio X3 battery pack from

any self-powered USB hub or USB port on a computer, but only when the Skorpio is

suspended.

Alternatively, it is also possible to recharge the battery pack by inserting the Skorpio

X3 into the single slot dock or the Ethernet four slot dock.

CAUTION

Don’t insert the wall charger into the micro-USB port when the

Skorpio X3 is inserted into the dock.

1 SKORPIO™ X3

The charging LED glows red when the main battery is recharging. It will glow green

when the battery reaches full charge. The charging LED will flash red when a

charging error is detected (see par. 4.5.1).

The stand alone battery pack may be recharged outside a Skorpio X3 using the

spare battery charging slot on the back of a single slot dock, an Ethernet four slot

dock, or a four slot battery charger.

NOTE

It’s recommended to charge batteries before first use.

CAUTION

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrective type.

Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

CAUTION

Il y a risque d’explosion si la batterie est remplacée par une batterie

de type incorrect.

Mettre au rebut les batteris usagées confor mément aux instructions.

CAUTION

Avoid storing batteries for long periods in a state of full charge or very

low charge.

We recommend charging the battery pack every two to three months

to keep its charge at a moderate level to maximize battery life.

BATTERIES AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE

Even if the storage temperature range is wider, In order to achieve

the longest battery life, store the terminal and the spare batteries

between 20 to 30º C (68 to 86º F).

Skorpio X3 (including spare battery) should be charged at an

ambient temperature between 0 - 35º C to achieve the maximum

explode or ignite.

In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with skin

or eyes. If contact occurs, immediately flush the affected area with

water and contact a doctor.

Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.

Do not expose the battery pack to liquids.

Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the battery

is dropped, especially on a hard surface, you should take it to the

nearest Authorised Repair Centre for inspection before continuing to

use it.

Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.

Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.

Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.

Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.

Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in

compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC,

2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory

and others laws and environmental regulations.

The use of the Skorpio X3 depends on the application software loaded. However

there are several parameters that can be set and utilities that can be used to perform

some basic functions such as data capture, communications, file management, etc

4.1 STARTUP

The Skorpio X3 turns on when the battery pack or the external supply is inserted and

the ON/OFF Power button is pressed.

After the battery pack is installed, use the [ON/OFF] key to turn the mobile computer

on and off.

As soon as the mobile computer is on, the Windows CE 6.0 desktop will appear on

the screen. Wait a few seconds before starting any activity so that the mobile

computer completes its startup procedure.

Desktop Control Panel

Use the stylus (par. 4.1.1) as suggested to select icons and options.

The mobile computer goes into power-off (low power with display and keyboard

backlight off), when it is not used for more than a programmable timeout, which is

defined in the POWER applet of the Control Panel. In this mode it can be awakened

(resuming operation) by the [ON/OFF] key.

1 SKORPIO™ X3

NOTE

The mobile computer can also be awakened or suspended

programmatically.

4.1.1 Using the Stylus

The stylus selects items and enters information. The stylus functions like a mouse.

within the reading range while pressing the SCAN key or the pistol trigger.

The lighted band emitted by the laser must completely cross the barcode as shown in

the figure below.

If the scan has taken place correctly:

 the Good Read LED glows green as long as the user holds the trigger;

 the Good Read Beep emits an acoustic signal;

 the Green Spot* projects a green spot onto the bar code image.

 It is enabled by default, but can be silenced

USE AND FUNCTIONING

4.3.2 Imager Data Capture

The Skorpio X3 Imager captures a picture of the entire bar code. The omni-

directional scanning does not require that the operator orient the bar code to align

with the scan pattern.

To read a 1D or 2D code, simply point the Skorpio X3 Imager model onto the code

and press the SCAN Key or the pistol trigger.

The Skorpio X3 Imager uses an intelligent aiming system pattern, similar to those on

cameras, indicating the field of view, which should be positioned over the code:

Aiming System

If the aiming system pattern is centered over the entire symbology as shown in the

following figure, either wait for the timeout or release the Scan key or the trigger to

capture the image.

A red beam illuminates the code, which is captured and decoded. You will get a good

read.

1 SKORPIO™ X3

Linear barcode 2D Matrix symbol

ÌBX3ÉÎ

Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern

The field of view changes its size as you move the reader closer or farther away from

the code. The field of view indicated by the aiming system pattern will be smaller

when the Skorpio X3 Imager is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from

the code.

Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the

unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from

the unit. (See par. 5.1 for further details).

If the scan has taken place correctly:

 the Good Read LED glows green until the user releases the trigger;

 if enabled, the GoodReadSound emits an acoustic signal.

4.12.1 WebApplock Special Meta-tags

General Meta-Tag Comments

A meta-tag is a special HTML tag that is used to store information about a Web page

but is not displayed in a Web browser. For example, meta tags provide information

such as what program was used to create the page, a description of the page, and

keywords that are relevant to the page.

As per the HTML specification, all meta-tags must be contained within a <head> …

</head> tag set.

Also, the head tag set must be complete within the first 15K of the web page.

The Datalogic WebAppLock defines some special meta-tags that allows the web

application to interact with the device:

In particular, the special meta-tags allow to:

- enable/disable the scan engine triggers

- enable/disable specific codes groups in the scan engine

- easily handle the keys pressing

The trigger, decoding and DL_Keys meta tags stay in scope beyond the page they

are defined in until a later page changes them.

Trigger Meta-tag

DL_Triggers – “Enable” or “Disable” all triggers

If the page contains this tag, the triggers are enable or disable depending on the

“content=” value.

Example:

USE AND FUNCTIONING

107

CGI Error Meta-tag

DL_CGIError – Overrides DDU error page redirection and replaces it with a reference

to a CGI script which is passed the error number as an argument.

Content – A CGI URL with variable name argument in place. The name of both the

CGI function and the error number variable is completely configurable by the user.

Do not put an ‘=’ at end of the URL.

HTTP header error numbers are returned if they are greater than or equal to 300. For

example, ‘404’ is returned if object is not found on the server. In addition the following

WebAppLock specific error numbers are returned:

Error Number Error Condition

1000 WiFi is disconnected

2000 Failed to open internet connection with WiFi

3000 Failed to connect to server

4000 Failed to open page on server

5000 Failed to send query to page on server

6000 Failed to receive query from page on server

7000 Failed to find file on device

Warning: Error redirection from the WebAppLock tab in DDU will be ignored if a page

has this meta-tag defined.

Example:

bin/errorpage.plx?errornum">

In the event of a 404 error (object not found on the server), WebAppLock will

navigate to the following URL:

http://www.SOMEWHERE.org/cgi-bin/errorpage.plx?errornum=404

1 SKORPIO™ X3

108

GetSerialNumber Meta-tag

DL_GetSerialNumber – Obtains the device serial number and sends it as an

argument to a customer’s javascript function.

Content – name of function to pass serial number to.

Example:

When this page is loaded the specified javascript function with the device serial

number as the only argument (such as CustomerFunction(‘D10P00031’).

OnPowerResume Meta-tag

DL_OnPowerResume – Invokes the specified javascript function upon power

resumption on the device.

Content – The URL to the JavaScript function to be called upon resume.

Example:

Reboot – Warm boot device Meta-tag

DL_Reboot – Warm boot device.

Content – “OnPageLoad” – Warm boot immediately upon page load. In future might

have more content options.

Example:

Exit Meta-tag

DL_Exit – Exit WebAppLock.

Content – “OnPageLoad” – Exit immediately upon page load. In future might have

more content options.

Example:

USE AND FUNCTIONING

109

Decoding meta-tags:

Each decoding meta-tag has a possible content of “Enable” or “Disable”.

The settings are valid for the entire page (enable/disable each symbology).

Key press Metatags

The key press meta-tags can be used to call JavaScript functions. They have the

name structure: “DL_Key_xxx” where xxx is the VKey code.

Example:

If one of this tag is present, the pressure of this key is handled at level of page,

independently from the currently focused item.

Refer to the Microsoft website to find the list of all the possible Vkey codes:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb431750.aspx

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa243025(VS.60).aspx

NOTE

The DL_Keys meta tag can exist past the page they are defined in,

hence the existence of the DL_Clear meta-tag, that allows to clear all

the settings and statuses.

Scanning Metatags

DL_Scan – Captures scan results and sends barcode/tag value to a javascript

function on the web page.

If the “content=” value is a javascript function the device will be taken out of keyboard

wedge mode and start listening for scan events. A scanned barcode/tag result will be

used as an argument to that javascript function which is then invoked.

If the “content=” value is “Wedge” then the device will stop listening for scanned

event and enter keyboard wedge mode.

If the “content=” value is “Disable” then the device will stop listening for scanned

events but not enter keyboard wedge mode.

4.13 AUTOSTART

The AutoStart program provides three functions:

- Allows you to create a list of applications (with optional command line

arguments) to run automatically prior to loading CAB files.

- Automatically reinstalls specified CAB files when the Skorpio X3 10 is cold

booted.

- Allows you to create a list of applications (with optional command line

arguments) to run automatically after loading CAB files.

AutoStart launches each time the Skorpio X3 is rebooted executing each line with the

specified command line arguments. It will take into account any AutoStart options at

the beginning of the line.

Upon a Cold Boot, AutoStart installs all the CAB files located in the \FlashDisk\CAB

folder. If the CAB folder does not exist, no CAB files will be installed.

AutoStart will then run the Autostart.ini from the \FlashDisk directory,

executing each line with the specified command line arguments. It will take into

account any AutoStart options at the beginning of the line.

 If the CAB installer requires user interaction that must be performed

during the AutoStart CAB installation process, you can specify a special

file name to disable the silent mode installation. If this mode is specified,

the CAB file will be installed with Wceload without any command line

arguments specified.

An example of what AutoStart would execute is:

\Windows\Wceload.exe <cab file>

To force this mode of installation via AutoStart, rename the CAB file to include a ‘_’

character before the “.cab” extension of the file.

Example:

“File.cab” should be renamed “File_.cab” to force AutoStart to not

install the CAB in silent mode. This specially-named CAB file should be placed in the

AutoStart folder with other CAB files intended for installation on the next reboot.

4.13.4 Autostart.ini

NOTE

A file named ‘PreAuto.ini’ can also be created in addition to or

instead of Autostart.ini. PreAuto.ini is executed before CAB files in

the \FlashDisk\Cab folder are installed. Autostart.ini is executed after

CAB files in the \FlashDisk\Cab folder are installed. The format for

the PreAuto.ini is identical to that of Autostart.ini..”

Autostart.ini is a text file that AutoStart will run upon startup of the Skorpio X3, and

after any CAB files are installed. This file should be placed in the \FlashDisk folder.

AutoStart will run the Autostart.ini file on each reboot of the device.

Line Formatting

Each line of the Autostart.ini can consist of Autostart options, an

executable, and any command line arguments.

< Autostart option(s)> <full path to executable>

Sample:

- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc

1 SKORPIO™ X3

114

The following table breaks down the sample Autostart.ini line:

Autostart option(s) Full path to executable Command line arguments

- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc

Spaces must be placed between each component of the line in the Autostart.ini.

If the executable path is in a folder that contains spaces in the name, quotes are

required to distinguish what the actual executable name is. The following is an

example of this:

“\Program Files\ScannerApp.exe” /run

(valid)

\Program Files\ScannerApp.exe /run

(invalid)

The second line is an invalid line because there is no way to distinguish the

executable from the argument.

AutoStart Options

The table below shows options you can use when writing a line in the Autostart.ini

file.

Description Character Comments

Comment: This line will not be

executed. ‘#’ OR ‘ ‘ (space)

This may only be used as the

first character of the line. If the

comment option is specified in

the options elsewhere, it is

ignored.

Do not wait on line completion:

This will cause the line to

execute and immediately move

onto the next line.

‘-’

Query: Request user

confirmation when running the

executable.

‘?’

This will halt parsing the

Autostart.ini until the

confirmation is answered. This

is intended for debugging the

Autostart.ini file.

Execute only on Cold Reset ‘!’

Execute only after a warm boot %

Cold Reset Only: This will cause the line to execute only after a Cold Reset.

NOTE

An empty line will be treated as a comment line.

1 SKORPIO™ X3

116

Combining Options

Autostart options can be combined together as shown in the following sample:

?- \Windows\Pword.exe

This line would:

 Request confirmation before executing the line. The next line would not be

processed before the confirmation is answered.

 Run the next line without waiting on the current line to complete execution.

Query Option

The query option is intended for use when debugging the autostart.ini. When a line

with this option is executed, the following dialog will appear with the specified

executable and command line arguments. The populated fields shown in the

AutoStart Execute Query are described the next table:

Field Description

Line Number This is the line number in the script being executed.

Exe The executable as parsed by AutoStart.

Args The argument as parsed by AutoStart.

USE AND FUNCTIONING

117

NOTE

The fields may be broken up into multiple lines (as shown in the

example) due to limited space in the dialog.

AutoStart Query Options

Parentheses are used to surround the given field and make it very clear what the

value of the field is.

The following table describes the results of each choice:

Button Action

Yes The current line will execute.

No The current line will not execute. AutoStart will continue

parsing the Autostart.ini.

Cancel The current line will not execute and AutoStart will

discontinue parsing the Autostart.ini.

\Program Files\App.exe (invalid) This will execute \Program with the

argument Files\App.exe.

\Program Files\App.exe /run (invalid) This will execute \Program with the

argument Files\App.exe /run.

“\Program Files\App.exe” /run This will execute the program \Program

Files\App.exe with the argument /run.

?- \Windows\Pword.exe

This will confirm the execution of

\Windows\Pword.exe. If the execution is confirmed,

AutoStart will immediately process the next line.

!”\Program Files\App.exe” /run

This will execute the program \Program

Files\App.exe with the argument /run ONLY after a

Cold Reset.

DECODING PARAMETERS

This section contains information about programmable settings for the Skorpio X3™.

Use the Skorpio X3™ Management Utility (FMU), the Scanner Control Panel applet,

the Imaging Control Panel applets to program the Skorpio X3™.

It provides the following information:

 Code Parameter is the “human” name for the programming option.

 I.D. # is the “decoder” name for the programming option. For example, to set a

Code 39 minimum label length, use I.D. 0120. Programming I.D. numbers given

in this appendix can be used with all programming methods. Note that the

Programming I.D. numbers are provided in hexadecimal notation.

 Type tells what kind of setting to use for each code parameter.

 On/Off is a toggle. 1 turns the parameter on, and 0 turns it off.

 Acceptable Input gives the settings or range of settings for each code

parameter.

 Defaults indicates how the parameter is set when the predefined default FF39,

FF3A, or FF3B is selected.

 Minimum (FF39) turns every on/off parameter off and sets all minimum and

Maximum Label Lengths to the lowest values.

 Maximum (FF3A) turns every on/off parameter on, sets all Minimum Label

Lengths to the lowest values, and sets all Maximum Label Lengths to the highest

values. Use this default for troubleshooting; it provides the best settings for

reading an unknown code symbology and can identify the symbology of scanned

bar codes.

 Factory (FF3B) is the factory setting installed on the Skorpio X3™. This default

set will work for most applications. To reset the Skorpio X3™ the original

defaults, scan the Factory bar code

 Scanner Type shows, with a checkmark, which modules support the

specified parameter.

129

PROGRAMMING CODES WITHOUT PARAMETERS

The following table describes the functions of special bar codes that take no

parameters:

Code

Parameter I.D. # Function

Defaults

Minimum FF39 Turns every On/Off parameter off and sets all minimum and

Maximum Label Lengths to the lowest values.

Defaults

Maximum FF3A

Turns every On/Off parameter on and sets all minimum and

Maximum Label Lengths to the highest values. This default set is

normally used only for troubleshooting. It gives the best chance of

reading an unknown bar code symbology and also identifies the

symbology of each bar code scanned.

Defaults

Factory FF3B This is the default parameter settings that was installed at the

factory. This default set will work for most applications.

Defaults

Registry FF3C

This restores all parameter settings to the values that exist in the

Registry. This is useful for restoring parameters to a known working

set of values which have been saved using code parameter FF3F.

Exit and

Restore FF3D Stops a label programming sequence and restores all parameter

settings to the values that exist in the Registry.

Exit and

Save FF3E Stops a label programming sequence. The last valid parameter

settings are left intact.

Exit and

Commit FF3F

Stops a label programming sequence and writes all parameter

settings into the Registry. This can be used to save a customized

set of parameter settings for restoring later via parameter FF3C.

RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION (SAR)

This model device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio

waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits

for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications

Commission of the U.S. Government.

The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement

known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC

is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions

accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power

level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the

highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating

can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed

to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach

the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,

the lower the power output.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and

at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all

reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure

guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and

can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

GLOSSARY

Access Point

A device that provides transparent access between Ethernet wired networks and

IEEE 802.11 interoperable radio-equipped mobile units. Hand-held mobile

computers, PDAs or other devices equipped with radio cards, communicate with

wired networks using Access Points (AP). The mobile unit (mobile computer) may

roam among the APs in the same subnet while maintaining a continuous, seamless

connection to the wired network.

Applet

Diminutive form of app (application), it refers to simple, single-function programs that

often ship with a larger product. Programs such as Windows' Calculator, File

Manager, Control Panel and Notepad are examples of applets.

Bar Code

A pattern of variable-width bars and spaces which represents numeric or

alphanumeric data in binary form. The general format of a barcode symbol consists

of a leading margin, start character, data or message character, check character (if

any), stop character, and trailing margin. Within this framework, each recognizable

symbology uses its own unique format.

Baud Rate

A measure for data transmission speed.

Bit

Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight

consecutive bits compose one byte of data. The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the

byte determines its meaning.

Bluetooth®

A standard radio technology using a proprietary protocol. The onboard Bluetooth

module in the device is compatible with the 1.1 protocol.

Byte

On an addressable boundary, eight adjacent binary digits (0 and 1) combined in a

pattern to represent a specific character or numeric value. Bits are numbered from

the right, 0 through 7, with bit 0 the low-order bit. One byte in memory can be used to

store one ASCII character.

Decode

To recognize a bar code symbology (e.g., Codabar, Code 128, Code 39, UPC/EAN,

etc.) and analyze the content of the bar code scanned.

Depth of Field (DOF)

The portion of a scene that appears acceptably sharp in the image. Although a lens

can precisely focus at only one distance, the decrease in sharpness is gradual on

each side of the focused distance, so that within the DOF, the unsharpness is

imperceptible under normal viewing conditions.

EDGE

Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE) is a backward-compatible digital

mobile phone technology that allows improved data transmission rates, as an

extension on top of standard GSM. EDGE is considered a 3G radio technology and is

part of ITU's 3G definition.

EEPROM

Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only memory. An on-board non-volatile

memory chip.

Ethernet

The standard local area network (LAN) access method. A reference to "LAN," "LAN

connection" or "network card" automatically implies Ethernet. Defined by the IEEE as

the 802.3 standard, Ethernet is used to connect computers in a company or home

network as well as to connect a single computer to a cable modem or DSL modem

for Internet access.

Firmware

Firmware is a software program or set of instructions programmed on a hardware

device. It provides the necessary instructions for how the device communicates with

the other computer hardware. Firmware is typically stored in the flash ROM of a

hardware device. While ROM is "read-only memory," flash ROM can be erased and

rewritten because it is actually a type of flash memory.

Flash Disk

Non-volatile memory for storing application and configuration files.

Host

A computer that serves other mobile computers in a network, providing services such

as network control, database access, special programs, supervisory programs, or

programming languages.

IEEE 802.11

A set of standards carrying out wireless local area network (WLAN) computer

communication in the 2.4, 3.6 and 5 GHz frequency bands. They are created and

maintained by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee.

181

Light Emitting Diode (LED)

A low power electronic light source commonly used as an indicator light. It uses less

power than an incandescent light bulb but more than a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

A display that uses liquid crystal sealed between two glass plates. The crystals are

excited by precise electrical charges, causing them to reflect light outside according

to their bias. They use little electricity and react relatively quickly. They require

external light to reflect their information to the user.

Null modem cable

RS-232 serial cable where the transmit and receive lines are crosslinked. In some

cables there are also handshake lines crosslinked. In many situations a straight

through serial cable is used, together with a null modem adapter. The adapter

contains the necessary crosslinks between the signals.

One shot key

Pressing a one shot key actives the state. The state remains active until any other

key is pressed. If you hold down a one shot state key and you press another key the

state will remain active until you release the one-shot key.

Pairing

A Bluetooth® pairing occurs when two Bluetooth® devices agree to communicate

with each other and establish a connection.

Piconet

A piconet is a Bluetooth® PAN that links up to eight devices. Each piconet is

controlled by one master device, and up to seven slave devices at any one time. Any

device may be a member of more than one piconet, changing its membership as a

user moves from one area to another.

RAM

Random Access Memory. Data in RAM can be accessed in random order, and

quickly written and read.

Radio Frequency.

RTC

Real Time Clock.

182

TDMA

Time division multiple access (TDMA) is digital transmission technology that allows a

number of users to access a single radio-frequency (RF) channel without interference

by allocating unique time slots to each user within each channel. The TDMA digital

transmission scheme multiplexes three signals over a single channel. The current

TDMA standard for cellular divides a single channel into six time slots, with each

signal using two slots, providing a 3 to 1 gain in capacity over advanced mobile-

phone service (AMPS). Each caller is assigned a specific time slot for transmission.

Toggle key

Pressing a toggle key activates the state. The state remains active until the toggle

key is pressed again.

USB

Universal Serial Bus. Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks,

modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer.

A “plug-and-play” interface, it allows a device to be added without an adapter card

and without rebooting the computer (the latter is known as hot-plugging). The USB

standard, developed by several major computer and telecommunications companies,

supports data-transfer speeds up to 12 megabits per second, multiple data streams,

and up to 127 peripherals.

WLAN

A Wireless Local Area Network links devices via a wireless distribution method

(typically spread-spectrum or OFDM radio), and usually provides a connection

through an access point to the wider internet. This gives users the mobility to move

around within a local coverage area and still be connected to the network.

WPAN

A Wireless Personal Area Network is a personal area network - a network for

interconnecting devices centered around an individual person's workspace - in which

the connections are wireless. Typically, a wireless personal area network uses some

technology that permits communication within about 10 meters - in other words, a

very short range.

WWAN

Stands for "Wide Area Network." It is similar to a Local Area Network (LAN), but it is

not limited to a single location and it uses Mobile telecommunication cellular network

technologies such as UMTS, GPRS, CDMA2000, GSM, CDPD, Mobitex, HSDPA or

3G to transfer data. WWAN connectivity allows a user with a laptop and a WWAN

card to surf the web, check email, or connect to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) from

anywhere within the regional boundaries of cellular service.
