Software Architecture The 8300 Series Terminal system software consists of three modules: the kernel & Application Manager module, the System module and the Application module. 3.1 Kernel & Application Manager The kernel is the innermost core of the system. It has the highest security and is always protected by the system. Only the failure of flash memory or improperly power off during system restart after updating kernel will the kernel be destroyed. The kernel module ensures that users can always download their application program even the operating system was crashed by the user’s program. The kernel provides the following services: Kernel Information Information includes hardware version, serial number, manufacturing date, kernel version and hardware configurations. Load Application To download the application program, BASIC run-time or font files. Kernel Update Sometimes the kernel might be changed for improving performance or other reasons. This function allows you to keep the kernel updated. The update procedure is same as download user program, but note that after updating the kernel, please do not power off until the system restart itself. Test & Calibrate To perform a burn-in test and tune the system clock. This function is for manufacturing purpose only. Besides the kernel menu, if there is no application program exists, then upon power up the terminal the following Application Manager’s menu will be shown: Download To download application programs (*.SHX), BASIC run-time (BC83x0.SHX), BASIC programs (*.SYN) or font files (8xxx-XX.SHX) to the terminal. There are 6 resident locations and one Active Memory, i.e. at most 7 programs can be downloaded to the terminal. But only the one downloaded to the Active Memory will be activated and running. To run other programs, they need to be activated first, but only one at a time. Right after downloading, you can input a name for the program or just press the enter key to keep its current name if there is. And then the downloaded program’s type, name and size will be shown on the list when entering the Download or Activate menu of the Application Manager. The file type is a small letter follows the program number (01~06), it can be either ‘b’, ‘c’ or ‘f’ which represents BASIC program, C program or font file respectively. The program name is up to 12 characters and the program size is in unit of K bytes. Activate To copy one of the 6 resident programs to the Active Memory to make it become the active program. After activating, the original program in the Active Memory will be replaced by the new one. Note a font file cannot be activated, and a BASIC program cannot be activated either if the BASIC run-time does not exist. Upload To transmit the application programs to a host PC or another terminal. The function allows a terminal to be cloned without going through a PC. 3.2 System The system module provides the following services: Information The system information includes hardware version, serial number, manufacturing date, kernel version, C library or BASIC run-time version, application program version and hardware configurations. Settings The system settings include the following: 1. Clock Set date and time for the system. 2. Backlight ON Period Set the staying on duration for the keyboard and LCD backlight.

Note the contents of the data space will be wiped out after memory initialization. Power Show the voltages of the main battery and backup battery. Load Application To download the application program, BASIC run-time or font file. There are three interfaces supported by the system, namely, the Direct-RS232, Cradle-IR and standard IrDA. Download.exe is required when Direct RS232 or standard IrDA interface is used. And IrLoad.exe is required when Cradle-IR is used. 802.11b Menu This item will be displayed only if an 802.11b module is installed. 1. Information It includes the WLAN LIB version, MAC ID, DHCP status, IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway. 2. IP Settings DHCP Server will dynamically assign the following IP settings to the terminal if DHCP Server is installed and the option is enabled. These IP Settings also can be configured manually if DHCP is disabled. Please contact your MIS engineer if you don’t know how to configure it. 1). DHCP DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Default: [1] Enable 2). SubNet Mask The number used to identify the IP sub-network, indicating whether the IP address can be recognized on the LAN. Default: 255.255.128.0 3). Local IP Address The address which identifies a location of the terminal on the network must be unique. Default: 0.0.0.0 4). Default Gateway the Gateway IP address is the IP address of a local router in between the forwarding node and the remote network. Default: 0.0.0.0 5). DNS Server Domain Name Server is a distributed, replicated, data query service mainly used on the Internet for translating host names to IP addresses. Default: 0.0.0.0 3. WLAN Settings The RF settings and their default values are as follows, 1). Local Name Specify name for terminal SP5600 Default: the S/N of the SP5600 terminal 2). Domain Name The domain name locates the organization or other entity on the Internet. Default:3). SS ID The SSID is a 32-character (maximum) string identifying the wireless local area network. All APs & terminals within the same service set should have the same SSID. Default: 4). System Scale This option which depends on the Access Point Density determines when the terminal should look for other Access Point that has bigger signal strength. [1] Low [2] Medium [3] High Default: [2] Medium 5). Power Saving Wireless products can be put in lower power consumption mode when “Power Saving” is enabled. Default: [1] Enable 6). Preamble Select either a short preamble or long preamble. Select a short preamble for SP5600 terminal with high network traffic; select a long preamble when the network traffic is low. Default: [1] Long 4. Security 1). Authentication 802.11b supports two subtypes of network authentication services: open system and shared key. Open system authentication is used when no authentication is required. Under Share Key Authentication, it involves a shared secret key to authenticate the station to the AP(access point). WEP must be implemented to utilize this. [0] Share Key [1] Open System Default: [1] Open System 2). WEP Menu WEP Setting Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an encryption to translate data into a secret code. It provides wireless clients with confidentiality and authentication in an IEEE 802.11b environment. [0] Disable [1] Enable Default: [0] Disable WEPKey Length When WEP is enabled, Data sent between the client and the access point is scrambled using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key. The higher the level of encryption, the more secure it is. [0] 64 bits [1] 128 bits Default: [1] 128 bits Default Key Activate one of the four encryption keys Default: [1] WEP KEY1 WEP Key Define the encryption key values for Key1~Key4 using hexadecimal digits. When WEPKey Length “64 Bit” is selected, the user is required to fill in 5 bytes of hexadecimal values as the encryption key. When WEPKey Length “128 Bit” is selected, the user is required to fill in 13 bytes of hexadecimal values as the encryption key. 3). EAP Menu EAP Stands for Extensible Authentication Protocol. SP5600 terminal only support EAP-MD5. When these features are implemented, a wireless client that associates with an access point cannot gain access to the network until the user performs a network logon. Therefore, Identity and Password are needed when EAP is enabled. EAP Setting EAP ID EAP Password 5. Echo Tests The terminal will echo the received data from the client or server and also signals a beep. The function is used to measure the coverage of the range, estimate the number of APs and terminals needed, and determine the AP’s deployment topology. 1. Client Mode 2. Server Mode Cipherlab provides TCPServer.exe (only for Client Mode) and TCPDemo.exe for Echo Tests. Once the connection of Echo Test is established, the details will be displayed as the illustration below.

The SP5600 Terminal is preloaded with the Application Generator’s run-time program and the following menu will be shown upon powering the unit up: 1. Take data 2. Utilities The arrow keys can be used to select the menu item, and execute it by pressing the ENTER key. Note if you use the Application Generator to create your application program, you need to download it to the terminal. And for RF models, you need to use the RF Database Manager to handle the in-coming and out-going data to and from the PC. For detailed information, please refer to “8300 Series Application Generator User’s Guide” and “RF Application Generator User’s Guide”. 3.4 Programming the terminal There are three software tools available for developing application programs for the terminal. 1. The Application Generator 2. The “BASIC” Compiler 3. The “C” Compiler Besides, Terminal Emulation program which supports ANSI (VT100& VT220) and IBM is also available. For detailed information, please contact Syntech Information Co., Ltd. 3.5 Programming the communication cradle The communication cradle of the SP5600 Portable Data Terminal supports serial IR interface only. Before your PC application starts to communicate with the terminal via its cradle, first you need to configure the cradle through programming. There is a DLL available for this purpose. For more information, please contact your supplier .Syntech Information Co., Ltd. 11 4. Operations Batteries must be fresh and properly loaded before start operation. 4.1 Keypad operations The 8300 Series Terminals have two keyboard layouts: 24 rubber keys and 39 rubber keys. The functions of some special keys are as follows: SCAN Scan a barcode. Press this button will trigger the scanner to read a barcode if the scanner port is enabled. ENTER Enter. There are two enter keys on the side of the scan key. Normally the enter keys are used for command execution or input confirmation. ESC Escape. Usually this key is used to stop and exit current operation. BS Back Space. If this key is being pressed down longer than one second, a clear code will be sent. ALPHA / α The toggle key for Alphabet / Numeral input. When the system is in alpha-mode, a small icon will be shown on the display. For the 24-key keyboard, each numeral key can be used to generate one of the three capital letters. For example, numeral 2 can be used to produce A, B or C. Pressing the same key twice within one second, will call the letter B. Pressing the same key without halting longer than one second, will cause the three letters to be shown in a circulating way. Only when stop pressing the key for longer than one second or pressing another key, will the system send the real key code to the application program. Pressing the “Alpha” key again, lower case letter can be inputted. FN The function key. This key cannot be activated alone, it must be pressed with one numeral key at the same time. For example, FN + 1 generates function #1, FN + 2 generates function #2, etc (up to 9 functions). Also, this key can be combined with the UP/DOWN arrow keys to adjust the contrast of the LCD. And when this key is combined with the ENTER key, it will turn ON/OFF the backlight. POWER Power On/Off. To prevent a faulty push, it needs about 1.5 sec continuous pressing to turn On/Off the power. 4.2 Application mode This is the default operation mode when turning on the power. The operation depends on the application module. Please refer to section 4.4. 12 4.3 System mode To enter the system menu, you need to press the 7, 9 and POWER keys simultaneously upon power up the terminal. For details of the services provided by the system, please refer to section 4.2. 4.4 Kernel mode To enter the kernel menu, you need to press 7, 9 and POWER keys simultaneously to enter the system menu first, then power off the unit and press 1, 7 and POWER key simultaneously. Or if the battery is just reloaded, then press 1, 7 and POWER key simultaneously will directly go to the kernel. For details of the services provided by the kernel, please refer to section 4.1. 4.5 Application Manager Although the Application Manager is part of the kernel, to enter it, you need to press ‘8’ and POWER key simultaneously. Or if the application program does not exist, the unit will automatically go to the Application Manager’s menu upon power up. The three services: Download, Activate and Upload provided by the Application Manager are explained in Section 4.1. But what if you need to update a program or delete it? For both cases, you need to select the Download menu and select the program to be updated or deleted. The Application Manager then shows the selected program’s information such as Program Name, Download Time, Used and Free Flash memory. And then please input ‘C’ to update the selected program, or input ‘D’ to delete it. 13
