This product is marked with
in accordance with the Class II product requirements specified in the R&TTE
Directive, 1999/5/EC.
The equipment is intended for use throughout the European Community. Its authorization for use in France is restricted as
follows:
PAN European Frequency Range: 2.402 - 2.480 GHz
Restrictions in France are as follows:
â˘ Indoor use - Maximum power (EIRP*) of 100 mW for the entire 2400-2483.5 MHz

Pacemakers, Hearing Aids and Other Electrically Powered Devices
Most manufacturers of medical devices adhere to the IEC 601-1-2 standard. This standard requires devices to operate properly
in an EM Field with a strength of 3V/m over a frequency range of 26 to 1000MHz.
The maximum allowable field strength emitted by the IK8560 is 0.3V/m according to Subpart B of Part 1 of the FCC rules.
Therefore, the IK8560 RF has no effect on medical devices that meet the IEC specification.
Microwaves
The radio in the IK8560 RF device operates on the same frequency band as a microwave oven. Therefore, if you use a
microwave within range of the IK8560 RF device you may notice performance degradation in your wireless network. However,
both your microwave and your wireless network will continue to function.
The IK8560 batch device does not contain a radio, and therefore, is not affected by microwave ovens.
Care and Cleaning
When needed, clean the image engine window and the LCD display with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. The device can
be cleaned with a damp cloth.

802.11b Wireless Security
The IK8560 contains the Meetinghouse AEGIS ClientÂŽ, a comprehensive IEEE 802.1X supplicant for securing wired and wireless
networks. The Client is a standards-based implementation of IEEE 802.1X and can be configured to work with almost any
network equipmentâwired or wirelessâthat supports the 802.1X authentication standard. The Client is interoperable with 802.1Xcapable wireless APs and authentication servers including Microsoft's IAS and Cisco's ACS.
The Client uses public key authentication and encryption between Wireless APs (WAP) and roaming stations to exchange
dynamic Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys. In addition, network managers can control 802.1X user profiles from a centralized
RADIUS server or, in the case of TTLS, from a RADIUS Diameter or other AAA servers. The Client supports both wireless
(802.11a/b/g) and Ethernet interfaces.
Supported Protocols
The Client supports the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) - RFC 2284.
Supported authentication methods:
â˘ CHAP/MD5 - RFC 1994
â˘ EAP TLS Authentication Protocol - RFC 2716
â˘ EAP Tunneled TLS (TTLS) - Internet Draft February 2002
â˘ Cisco LEAP and PEAP
â˘ Microsoft PEAP
Tested against the following servers:
â˘ Funk Odyssey 3.2 using TLS, LEAP and TTLS
â˘ AEGIS Server 1.1.4 using MD5, TLS, TTLS, LEAP and PEAP
â˘ Cisco ACS 3.2 using MD5, TLS, LEAP and PEAP
Required Network Configuration Information
Because the Client accesses a network that is protected by the IEEE 802.1X protocol, you must configure EAP data
communication to match your network server parameters. If the EAP configuration doesnât match your network configuration, you
canât access the network. Therefore, make sure you have the correct network server parameters on hand when you configure
the client.
Saving Your Settings
Network setup information for the client is stored in the registry. To make sure that network information persists through
hard resets (i.e., power cycles), back up the registry after you complete network setup.
After settings are saved, tap Start > Power Tools > RegBackup

Configuring Client Authentication
Each user account needs to define the protocol and the credentials used to authenticate a user. When you start and stop on a
port, you are enabling and disabling the authentication established here.
Note: Fields will be grayed out if not relevant to the selected protocol.
On the main screen, tap Client > Configure. Complete the User (see page 5-13), System (see page 5-15), and Server (see page
5-16) tabs.
The configuration screens are in portrait orientation, which means that a portion of the screen is below the command bar
at the bottom. To access the rest of the screen, tap and hold on a point on the right side of the window that is not an active
part of the screen (e.g., a button or a field) and drag the screen up. After you complete your tasks on the lower portion of
the window, you must drag the window back down so that you can tap OK to save changes.
User Tab
Enter the credentials used to authenticate a user.
Field
Description
Profile
Multiple user credential profiles can be created for use when the user roams from one network to
another. The drop-down list contains existing authentication credential profiles. Select a profile from the
list to edit it in the fields that follow.
â˘ Tapping Add permits new profiles to be added to the list. A screen appears where you can enter a
name for the new profile.
â˘ Enter a Profile name and tap OK. The name entered appears in the Profile drop-down list.
â˘ Tapping Delete deletes authentication profiles. To be deleted, a profile cannot be assigned to a
configured network.
Identity
This is the 802.1X identity supplied to the authenticator. The identity value can be up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive.
For tunneled authentication protocols such as TTLS and PEAP, this identity (called the Phase 1 identity)
is sent outside the protection of the encrypted tunnel. Therefore, it is recommended that this field not
contain a true identity, but instead the identity âanonymousâ and any desired realm (e.g.
anonymous@myrealm.com). For TTLS and PEAP, true user credentials (Phase 2 identity) are entered
in the Tunneled authentication section.
When used with PEAP and the .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2, this field must contain the identity
used in both Phase I and Phase II. The Phase II identity field is ignored.
Password
This is the password used for MD5-Challenge or LEAP authentication. It may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.
Authentication
type
This is the authentication method to be used - MD5-Challenge, LEAP, PEAP, TLS, or TTLS.
Your network administrator should let you know the protocols supported by the RADIUS server. The
RADIUS server sits on the network and acts as a central credential repository for Access Servers that
receive the radio signals and ultimately block or allow users to attach to the network.

Field
Description
Use certificate
This is the certificate to be used during authentication. A certificate is required for TLS, optional for
TTLS and PEAP, and unused by MD5 and LEAP. Therefore, this option becomes active only when TLS,
TTLS, or PEAP is selected as the Authentication type.
If Use certificate is enabled, the client certificate displayed in the field
is the one that is passed to the server for verification. To select a
client certificate, tap Change and select the certificate from the list
that appears.
To appear in this list, certificates must be installed in the system; see
Installing Certificates on page 5-22.
The Issued to column should match the Identity field and the user ID
on the authentication server used by the authenticator.
Your certificate must be valid with respect to the authentication server. This generally means that the
authentication server must accept the issuer of your certificate as a Certificate Authority.
When obtaining a client certificate, do not enable strong private key protection. If you enable strong
private key protection for a certificate, you will need to enter an access password for the certificate each
time this certificate is used.
Tunneled authentication area
Tunneled authentication parameters are used by only by TLS, TTLS and PEAP protocols, in Phase 2 of authentication, and
after the secure tunnel has been established. The fields in this section are active only if the TLS, TTLS, or PEAP is selected
as the Authentication type.
Identity
The user identity used in Phase 2 authentication. The identity specified may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters, is case-sensitive and takes the form of a Network Access Identifier, consisting of @. The userâs home realm is optional and indicates the domain to which
the tunneled transaction is to be routed.
Because Microsoft .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2 does not use this parameter for PEAP, This field
will have no effect for PEAP at this time. Phase 1 identity is used instead.
Password
The password used for the tunneled authentication protocol specified. It may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.
Protocol
This parameter specifies the authentication protocol operating within the secure tunnel.
The following protocols are currently supported for TTLS:
â˘ EAP-MD5
â˘ CHAP
â˘ PAP
â˘ MS-CHAP
â˘ MS-CHAP-V2
The following protocols are currently supported for PEAP:
â˘ EAP-MS-CHAP-V2
â˘ TLS/SmartCard
â˘ Generic Token Card (EAP-GTC)

Field
Description
Log Level
These settings control the detail of the log messages generated by the Client. Each level is
cumulative. By default, all errors, warnings, and information events are logged. Each entry records a
severity code (of one [debug message] to four [error] asterisks), a time stamp, and a message.
â˘ Errors - only the most severe conditions are logged.
â˘ Warnings - less severe conditions are logged.
â˘ Information - all errors, warnings, and information events are logged. This is the default setting.
â˘ Debugging - creates a log message each time the Client detects or reacts to an event. Be advised
that log entries fill memory quickly if the Debugging level is chosen. Do not use the Debugging
option for a significant length of time because most internal operations generate messages.
For more information, see Logging on page 5-15.
Defaults button
Tap this button to return log settings to the default settings.
Scan List
Timeout
The time interval at which the Client polls the ports. This value should not be changed from the 10second default unless technical support advises you to do so.

The amount of time the Client saves credentials.
Disable Wireless
Zero Config
Use this option only as directed by technical support.
Selecting this option disables other wireless utilities whether the Client is running or not. If not
selected, other wireless utilities cannot apply their settings to the wireless card while the Client is
running (although their status displays are usually unaffected).
You need to do a RegBackup and then power cycle the device whenever this setting is changed.
Logging
The event log is an ASCII text file named âLOG8021X.TXTâ located in the directory
defined by the WINDIR environment variable (usually the Windows directory).
In the text file, the format of the entries is: Time StampMessage Text
Note: To see an event log on the screen, tap View > Event Log (see page 5-11).
If you wish to start with a blank file or clear the event log, close the Client (so that the
icon no longer appears in the command bar) and delete the log file (log8021x) in
WIndows Explorer. When you restart the Client, a new log file is created.

Server Tab
The Server tab controls how the Client authenticates the server that handles the 802.1X protocol on the network side. This
applies only to the TLS, TTLS, and PEAP authentication methods and is used to tell the Client what server credentials to accept
from the authentication server to verify the server. The Client uses this information to verify that the Client is communicating with
a trusted server.
Field
Description
Do not validate server
certificate chain
If this option is selected, the server certificate received during the TLS/TTLS/PEAP message
exchange is not validated.
Certificate issuer
must be
This is the certificate authority used during TLS/TTLS/PEAP message exchange. Any Trusted
CA is the default selection and means that any certificate authority can be used during
authentication.
Both trusted intermediate certificate authorities and root authorities whose certificates exist in
the system store are available for selection in the drop-down list.
Allow intermediate
certificates
This option is selected by default and enables unspecified certificates to be in the server
certificate chain between the server certificate and the certificate authority selected in the
Certificate issuer must be field.
When selected, this option allows the server certificate received during negotiation to be issued
directly by the certificate authority or by one of its intermediate certificate authorities.
If disabled, then the selected Certificate issuer must have directly issued the server certificate.
Server name must be
This is either the server name or the domain the server belongs to, depending on which option
is selected below the text field.
During authentication, this name will be compared to the server certificateâs Subject: CN field.
Must match exactly
When selected, the server name entered must match the server name found on the certificate
exactly.
Must contain domain
name
When selected, the server name field identifies a domain and the certificate must have a server
name belonging to this domain or to one of its sub-domains (e.g., zeelans.com, where the
server is blueberry.zeelans.com).

default
This is the default network configuration that installs when the Client installs. This network profile
associates with any network.
If you are in a location with only one AP (or more than one AP that attaches to the same
network), the default profile may be sufficient without requiring the selection of a specific network
or networks.
If default is last in the list, it can act as a wildcard if the device is out of range of the primary
networks (listed first).
Do NOT place default at the top or middle of the list if you are connecting to other networks! If
default is any place other than last, connection to the other list entries is never attempted.

Moves a selected network up or down one place in the list.The order of the networks in this list is
the exact order that connections will be attempted. The network listed first will be attempted first
and so on. Place your primary networks first.

Protocol Tab
The Protocol tab configures parameters that apply to all the networks the selected port connects to.
Field
Description
Protocol Settings
These are the timer intervals and retry settings defined in the 802.1X standard. They determine how
long the supplicant state machine will wait in a given state. These parameters shouldnât be modified
without an understanding of the supplicant state machine. For more information about the supplicant
state machine, obtain its 802.1X protocol specification.
The parameters are:
â˘ Authentication TimeoutâThe period of time the Client remains in the authenticating or acquired
state without receiving a response from the AP or switch.
â˘ Held TimeoutâThe period of time the Client remains in the held state after failing authentication.
â˘ Start TimeoutâThe period of time the Client remains in the connecting state before restarting
when there is no response.
â˘ Number of Start AttemptsâThe number of times the Client restarts before giving up. At that point,
the Client then defaults to the authenticated state, but there will be no network connectivity because
the protocol exchange was never completed.
Display EAP
notifications
Specifies that the EAPOL notification message will be displayed to the user. An authenticator may
use such notification to inform you, for example, about a near password expiration. However, some
authenticators send chatty and annoying notifications that may, for the convenience of the user, be
suppressed. Note that all notifications are written to the event log even if they are not displayed.
Renew IP address
Initiates a DHCP request to obtain a dynamic IP address after a successful authentication, but only if
the client detects that the connected network (the SSID) has changed. The result is that renewal
should not occur upon re-authentication, but does occur at boot or when connecting to a different
network.
If you have a slow authenticator, you may wish to enable this option when configuring the service
because a slow authenticator may prevent you from getting a DHCP-assigned IP address upon bootup. This option is ignored if the given adapter has a static IP address.

Installing Certificates
Install certificates with CertAdd, a standalone utility that allows certificates to be selected and installed on the device.
Certificate Requirements
During configuration, you may have specified one or two certificates to use during the authentication process. The specified
identity should match the Issued to field in the certificate and should be registered on the authentication server (i.e., a RADIUS
server) that is used by the authenticator. In addition, your certificate must be valid on the authentication server. This requirement
depends on the authentication server and generally means that the authentication server must know the issuer of your certificate
as a trusted Certificate Authority (CA).
If the selected certificate does require a password or pass phrase to decode the private key, enter this value in the Certificate
Pass Phrase field. This value will be encrypted when the configuration is saved. However, on some systems, there may not be
a certificate.
Installing Certificates
Note: Client or CA certificates can be imported from *.cer (same as *.der), *.p7b, or *.pfx files.
1. Download the certificate file to the device.
The location isnât critical, but you may want to create a standard folder for consistency.
2. Go to Start > Programs > Meetinghouse Certificate Installer.
3. Navigate to the certificate location.
4. Tap and hold on a certificate in the list. A pop-up appears asking if you want to install the certificate.

Scanning a Bar Code
If you are running a software application, such as the Scan Demo, that accepts bar code information, simply slide a bar code
underneath the illumination cone. The IK8560 beeps on successful decoding.
Illumination Cone
Omni-Directional Aiming
The IK8560 supports omni-directional aiming in two of the three optimal imaging modes
Omni-directional aiming means the bar codes label can be read if placed under the illumination cone in any orientation.

Scan Demo
The IK8560 ships with a sample application called Scan Demo that can be used to demonstrate the scanning capabilities of the
IK8560. To launch and use the Scan Demo application please follow the following steps:
1. Tap Start > Programs > Demos and double-tap the Scan Demo icon
engine is activated.
. The Scan Demo window opens and the image
2. Slide a bar code under the illumination cone and tap Scan.
Illumination Cone
3. The device beeps and the bar code data appears on the screen.
Scanning Options
You can always manually scan the bar code inserted under the illumination cone by tapping the Scan button. The Scan menu
offers you two additional scan options: Automatic and Continuous.
Automatic Scan
Automatic scan activates the image engine at regular one second intervals. To set the device to automatic scan,
tap Scan > Automatic and the engine begins scanning at one-second intervals. Simply slide a bar code under the
illumination cone and wait for the readout to appear on the screen.
One second is the default interval; however, you can customize the interval time by tapping Setup > Auto Scan
Delay.

Image Kiosk 8560 Userâs GuidePreliminary CP4 Draft
Select an interval from 1 to 5 seconds. A checkmark appears next to the selected interval. Selecting None causes
the engine to scan continuously. To turn off automatic scanning, tap Scan > Automatic again.
Continuous Scan
Continuous scan activates the image engine continually, without a pause. To set the device to continuous scan, tap
Scan > Continuous and the engine begins scanning. Automatic scan must be turned off before you can activate
continuous scan. To turn off continuous scanning, tap Scan > Continuous again.
Note: If you want to track bar code scans during automatic or continuous scan, enable the scan statistics.
Enabling Scan Statistics
The Scan Demo can record scan statistics for each bar code scanned and for all bar codes scanned in an activated scan session.
By default, these statistics do not display on the screen.
To enable scan statistics and activate a scan session, tap Setup > View Statistics. The Scan Demo begins recording scan
statistics beginning with the next bar code scanned. The scan statistics will appear underneath the bar code readout.
Field
Description
Symbology
The symbology type.
Length
The length of the bar code.
Count
The number of scans completed since scan statistics were enabled. If you complete one scan, this
field displays a count of 1 and increases with each additional scan performed.
Time
The number of milliseconds (ms) to decode the bar code.
Note: The following three fields display the cumulative scan statistics from the time that View Statistics was enabled. To
reset any of these values to zero, disable the scan statistics.
Average Time
The average decode time of all bar codes decoded.
Min Time
The shortest decode time of all bar codes decoded.
Max Time
The longest decode time of all bar codes decoded.
Beeper
By default, the beeper sounds after each successful decoding. To turn off the speaker, tap Setup > Sound. The beeper will not
sound after your next successful scan.
Decode Mode
By default, the Scan Demo decodes in Full Omni Standard mode.

To chose another mode, tap Setup > Decode Mode. A checkmark appears next to the selected mode.
There are three options:
1. Full Omni/Standard
2. Quick Omni
This is the default scan mode. The image engine looks for any bar code within range.
The image engine attempts to decode any enabled barcode while searching a reduced area of the
image. By searching for a barcode in a reduced area, based around the center of the image, scanning
performance may be improved if the barcode label is found close to the center in the captured image
used by the scan engine.
3. Aggressive Linear Decoding
The image engine attempts to decode only enabled 1D linear barcodes.
Symbologies
The Scan Demo can decode a bar code only if its bar code symbology is selected in the symbologies list.
To see this list, tap Setup > Symbologies.
The symbologies with a checkmark are the symbologies currently selected. The Scan Demo defaults to the default bar code
symbologies for the IK8560; see Default Bar Code Symbologies on page 6-1.
Enabling and Disabling Symbologies
To enable a symbology, select it in the list. To disable a symbology, de-select it in the list. You can select and de-select more
than one symbology at a time. Whe you are done enabling and disabling, tap Close and then Yes on the confirmation dialog.
In addition to individual, manual selection, the Scan Demo offers you three selection options:
All
Selects all the symbologies in the list.
None
Default
De-selects all the symbologies in the list; this button de-selects even the default symbologies.
Selects only the default symbologies; see Default Bar Code Symbologies on page 6-1.
Use this button to return the Scan Demo to the default symbologies after modifications.
Tap Close and save your selections. Tap Yes and you are returned to the Scan Demo window. Verify symbology selections by
scanning bar codes in the selected symbology(ies) format.
Note: Symbology selections apply only to the Scan Demo, not the image engine in general.
Centering
Centering is a scanning feature that requires the barcode label to be located within a specific area of the imagers field of view in
order for the label to be successful decoded. This feature allows the image engine to discriminate between symbols that are
located physically close to each other so only one symbol is captured during a decode attempt. Please refer to the SDKâs online
help for further details on the use of the centering feature.
To enable decode centering, tap Options > Centering. Centering will be applied to your next scan.

Enabling the Aimer
The 5100SR/SF engine contains a green aiming beam that is disabled by default in the Scan Demo. To enable the aiming beam,
tap Setup > Enable Aimer. A checkmark appears on the menu to indicate that the aiming beam is enabled.
To see the aiming beam, see Omni-Directional Aiming on page 6-2.
