Scanning Bar Codes
Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection of the laser
beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term exposure to the laser beam can
damage your vision.
Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of scanner you
are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you
scan the bar code. The CK60 Computer supports the scanning of 2D
images. Plus, if you are using an integrated handle or a tethered scanner, the
way you scan bar codes is different.When you unpack the CN30, these bar
code symbologies are enabled:
• Code 39
• UPC/EAN
• PDF417 (if supported)
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different symbology,
you need to enable the symbology on the computer.
Use the Intermec Settings to enable and disable symbologies for your scanner.

CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 1 — Using the CN30 Mobile Computer
Scanning with the 2D Area Imager
The CN30 Computer has the 2D area imager, which provides the ability to
scan 2D bar code symbologies and supports omni-directional (360°) scanning where you can position the CN30 Computer in any orientation to
scan a bar code label. Using the 2D area imager is very similar to taking a
picture with a digital camera.
1 Press (I) to turn on the CN30 Computer.
2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CN30
Computer steady a few inches from the label.
3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on a handle and
center the red aiming beam over the bar code label. The aiming beam is
smaller when the imager is closer to the bar code and larger when it is
further away.
When the CN30 Computer successfully reads a bar code label, you hear
a high beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.
4 Release the Scan button.
If you have problems scanning a bar code with the 2D imager, try following
some of these tips to improve the performance of your imager:
• Set Lighting mode to Illum LED Priority.
• Keep your hand as steady as possible while scanning a label.
• Make sure that Aimer LED Duration is set to zero.
• Position the imager as close to the bar code as possible while still being
able to capture the entire bar code.
• Enable only the bar codes that you need to use every day.
Use Intermec Settings to configure these imager commands. For help using
Intermec Settings, see “Configuring the CN30 Computer With Intermec

Microsoft ActiveSync
Visit the following Microsoft Web site for the latest in updates, technical information, and samples:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/communities/
de-fault.mspx
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on
your desktopwith the information on your CN30 Mobile Computer. Synchronization compares the data on your CN30 Mobile Computer with
your desktop and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example:
• Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your CN30
Mobile Computer with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop.
• Synchronize Microsoft Wordand Microsoft Excel files between your
CN30 Mobile Computer and desktop. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format
Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types
of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on andoff
for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
• Back up and restore your CN30 Mobile Computer data.
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your CN30 Mobile Computer and desktop.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization
mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to
your desktop or only when you choose the synchronize command.
• Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of
past appointments you want synchronized.
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop from
the Windows Mobile Companion CD. For more information on installing
ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installedon
your CN30 Mobile Computer.
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you connect your CN30 MobileComputerto yourdesktop,setupa partnershipso you
can synchronize information between your CN30 Mobile Computer and
your desktop, andcustomize your synchronization settings. Your firstsynchronization process automatically begins when finishedusing the wizard.

After your first synchronization, look at Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on
your CN30 Mobile Computer. Notice that information you have stored in
Microsoft Outlook on your desktop was copied to your CN30 Mobile
Computer, and you did not have to type a word. Disconnect the CN30
Mobile Computer from your computer and you are ready to go!
Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization
process, you can initiate synchronization from your CN30 Mobile Computer. To switch to ActiveSync on your CN30 Mobile Computer, tap Start
> ActiveSync. Note that if you have a wireless LAN card, you can synchronize remotely from your CN30 Mobile Computer.
For information aboutusing ActiveSync on your desktop, start ActiveSync
on your desktop, and then see ActiveSync Help.

Using ActiveSync, you can synchronize information in Microsoft Outlook
or Microsoft Exchange on your desktop with your CN30 Mobile Computer. You can also synchronize this information directly with a Microsoft
Exchange server. Each time you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the
changes you made on your CN30 Mobile Computer and desktop or server
and updates both computers with the latest information. For information
on using ActiveSync, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.
You can switch to any program by tapping it on the Start menu.

When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to connect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet card
to connect to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connected. You can also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line connection. For more information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server”on page
75.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
After selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages are
synchronized as partof the generalsynchronization process. During synchronization:
• S Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the
Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your CN30 Mobile
Computer. (Note that you can onlysynchronize information directlywithan Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile
Information Server 2002 or later.)By default, you receive messages from
the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file
attachmentsof lessthan100 KB in size.
• S Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to
Exchange or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
• S The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a
message on your CN30 Mobile Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the next time you synchronize.
• S Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchro
• nized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync. For
information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktopor select Start >
Help > Connections to see Connections Help.
Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
Each e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy with
five default folders:Inbox,Outbox, Deleted Items,Drafts, and Sent Items.
The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored in
these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy.
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that were deleted on the device.
The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the
Inbox options you have chosen.
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync,SMS,POP3, or IMAP4.
• If you use ActiveSync,
• e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook automatically synchronize with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by
designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored on the server. For example, if you
34
CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile Version 5.0
move two messages fromthe Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and
you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy
of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can
then read the messages while away from your desktop.
• If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.
• If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created,
the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies on
the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the
messages are missing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the
server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies ofa message, but
it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move
to folders created from anywhere except the CN30 Mobile Computer.
• If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mailmessages you
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you
anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your CN30
Mobile Computer or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs
whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename
or delete folders when connected.
For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tapping
Tools > Manage Folders.
Connecting to a Mail Server
In addition to synchronizinge-mailmessages with your desktop, you can
sendandreceive e-mail messages byconnecting to an e-mailserver usinga
modem or network card connected to your CN30 Mobile Computer. You
need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mailserver. For more information, see “Getting Connected”
on page .
When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to
the CN30 Mobile Computer Inbox folder, messages in the CN30 Mobile
Computer Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the email server are removed from the CN30 Mobile Computer Inbox folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your
e-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message on your
CN30 Mobile Computer, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next
time you connect based on the settings selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and
respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent
as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your CN30 Mobile Computer.
When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or
partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mailserver and then decide
which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox

Configuring WPA Security
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a strongly enhanced, interoperable Wi-Fi
security that addresses many of the vulnerabilities of Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). Instead of WEP, WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(TKIP) for its data encryption method.
Currently, WPA satisfies some of the requirements in the IEEE 802.11i
draft standard. When the standard is finalized, WPA will maintain forward
compatibility. WPA runs in Enterprise (802.1x) mode or PSK (Pre-Shared
Key) mode:
• In Enterprise mode, WPA provides user authentication using 802.1x and
the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). That is, an authentication
server (such as a RADIUS server) must authenticate each device before
the device can communicate with the WLAN.
• In PSK mode, WPA provides user authentication using a shared key
between the access point and the CN30. WPAPSK is a good solution for
small offices or home offices that do not want to use an authentication
server.
To use WPA security, you need:
• An authentication server (Enterprise mode only)
Note: You can also use a MobileLAN access point with software release
1.80 or later as an authentication server. For help, see the system manual for
your access point.
• An access point with an 802.11b/g radio that supports WPA
• CN30 with the 802.11b/g radio and the 802.1x/WPA security option
Configuring WPA Security With Enterprise Security
Use these procedures to set WPA and WPA-PSK security on your CN30
with Funk security.
To enable WPA security on your CN30 with Funk security
1 Make sure you have configured the communications and radio parameters on your CN30.
2 Make sure you have selected Funk as your security choice.
3 Press C and then B to open the System Main Menu.

Configuring LEAP Security
Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP), also known as
Cisco-Wireless EAP, provides username/passwordbased authentication
between a wireless client and a RADIUS server. In the 802.1x framework,
traffic cannot pass through an Ethernet hub or wireless network access
point until it successfully authenticates itself.
The station must identify itself and prove that it is an authorized user
before it is actually allowed to use the LAN. LEAP also delivers a session
key to the authenticated station, so that future frames can be encrypted
with a key that is different than keys used by others sessions
To use LEAP security, you need:
• A RADIUS server
• Cisco access points
Note: LEAP security is not supported with Microsoft security.
To enable LEAP security on your CN30

Loading Certificates
If you choose to use transport layer security (TLS) with WPA or 802.1x
security, you need to have a unique client certificate on the CN30 and a
trusted root certificate authority (CA) certificate. You can use a third-party
CA to issue unique client certificates and a root certificate. If you are using
Active Directory® to issue certificates, you can use the Enroll Certificates
application to load the certificates. If you are using another third-party CA,
you can use the Import Root or User Certificates programs to load the certificates.

Configuring a VPN
A virtual private network (VPN) is a private network that uses a public network (Internet) to connect remote sites or users together. These networks
use encryption and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that data cannot be intercepted. The
CN30 uses the Microsoft CE .NET Remote Access Service (RAS) to set up
the VPN. You can configure the CN30 to use either Point-to- Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) or Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP).
PPTP is a network protocol that adds a security infrastructure for the transfer of data from a remote CN30 to a private server, thus creating a VPN by
using TCP/IP-based data networks. Like PPTP, L2TP also uses Point-toPoint Protocol (PPP) to encrypt data. L2TP uses Internet Protocol Security
Protocol (IPSec) to enable a more secure VPN client connection from your
CN30 to a remote server.
IPSec supports the following settings:
• Public key certificates
• Pre-shared keys
Note: If you want to use L2TP and IPSec, they must be supported by the
corporate server.

SNMP Configuration on the CN30 Mobile Computer
In short, SNMP is an application-layer protocol that facilitates the
exchange of management information between network devices. The
CN30 Mobile Computer is such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to
control and configure the CN30 Mobile Computer anywhere on an
SNMP-enabled network.
The CN30 Mobile Computer supports four proprietary Management
Information Bases (MIBs) and Intermec Technologies provides SNMP support for MIB-II through seven read-only MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB) Object
Identifiers (OIDs).
Note: You can only query these seven OIDs through an SNMP management station.
Management Information Base
The Management Information Base is a database that contains information
about the elements to be managed. The information identifies the management element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, ReadWrite). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a
machine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to be managed are represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such
objects.
You will find the following MIB files either in the CN30 Mobile Management Tools portion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD or on the web
via www.intermec.com:
• INTERMEC.MIB
• Defines the root of the Intermec MIB tree.
• ITCADC.MIB
• Defines objects for Automated Data Collection (ADC), such as bar
• code symbologies.
• ITCSNMP.MIB
• Defines objects for Intermec SNMP parameters and security methods,
• such as an SNMP security IP address.
• ITCTERMINAL.MIB
• Defines objects for CN30 Mobile parameters, such as key clicks.
Object Identifiers
Each object has a unique identifier called an OID, which consist of a
sequence of integer values represented in dot notation. Objects are stored in
a tree structure and OIDs are assigned based on the position of the object in
the tree. For example, the internet OID is equal to 1.3.6.1. Seven MIB
OIDs are shown in the following table:
CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual

ifNumber 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1.0 Interfaces Group Indicates the number of adapters
present in the system. For the 700
Color Computer, if one adapter is
present in the system, then ifNumber
= 1 and ifIndex = 1.
ifIndex 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) A unique value for each interface.
The value ranges between 1 and the
value of ifNumber.
ifDescr 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) A textual string containing information
about the interface.
ifType 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) An integer containing information
about the type of the interface. It is
equal to 1 for Other.
ipAdEntAddr 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.1.IpAddress IP address Table
(ipAddrTable)
The IP address to which this entry’s
addressing information pertains
(same as 700 IP address), where IP
Address is the valid non-zero IP address
of the CN30 Mobile Computer.
ipAdEntIfIndex 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.2.IpAddress IP address Table
(ipAddrTable)
The index value that uniquely identifies
the interface to which this
entry is applicable (same as ifIndex).
ipAdEntNetMask 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.3.IpAddress IP address Table
(ipAddrTable)
The subnet mask associated with
the IP address of this entry (same as
Subnet Mask).
Configuring with SNMP
The community string allows an SNMP manager to manage the CN30
Mobile Computer with a specified privilege level. The default read-only
community string is “public” and “private” is the default read/write community string. See the specific configuration parameter to find its OID. To
configure the CN30 Mobile Computers using SNMP:
1 Configure CN30 Mobile Computers for RF or Ethernet communications.
2 Determine the OID (Object Identifier) for the parameter to be
changed. The Intermec base OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1963.

Creating CAB Files
The Windows CE operating system uses a .CAB file to install an application on a Windows CE-based device. A .CAB file is composed of multiple
files that are compressed into one file. Compressing multiple files into one
file provides the following benefits:
• All application files are present.
• A partial installation is prevented.
• The application can be installed from several sources, such as a desktop
computer or a Web site.
Use the CAB Wizard application (CABWIZ.EXE) to generate a .CAB file
for your application.
Creating Device-Specific CAB Files
Do the following to create a device-specific .CAB file for an application, in
the order provided:
1 Create an .INF file with Windows CE-specific modifications.
2 Optional Create a SETUP.DLL file to provide custom control of the
installation process.
3 Use the CABWizard to create the .CAB file, using the .INF file, the
optional SETUP.DLL file, and the device-specific application files as
parameters.
Creating an .INF File
An .INF file specifies information about an application for the CAB Wi
ard.
Below are the sections of an .INF file:
[Version]

Using Installation Functions in SETUP.DLL
SETUP.DLL is an optional file that enables you to perform custom operations
during installation and removal of your application. The following
CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
139
Chapter 7 — Programming
list shows the functions that are exported by SETUP.DLL.
Install_Init Called before installation begins. Use this function to check the application version when reinstalling
an application and to determine if a dependent application is present.
Install_Exit Called after installation is complete. Use this function to handle errors that occur during application
installation.
Uninstall_Init Called before the removal process begins. Use this function to close the application, if the application
is running.
Uninstall_Exit Called after the removal process is complete. Use this function to save database information to a
file and delete the database and to tell the user where the user data files are stored and how to reinstall
the application.
Note; Use [DefaultInstall] > CESelfRegister in the .INF file to
point to SETUP.DLL.
After the CAB File Extraction
Cab files that need to cause a warm reset after cab extraction will need to
create the __RESETMEPLEASE__.TXT file in the “\Windows” directory.
The preferred method to create this file is within the DllMain portion of
the SETUP.DLL file. It looks like this:

Creating CAB Files with CAB Wizard
After you create the .INF file and the optional SETUP.DLL file, use the
CAB Wizard to create the .CAB file. The command-line syntax for the
CABWizard is as follows:
cabwiz.exe ìinf_fileî [/dest dest_directory] [/err error_file] [/cpu cpu_type
[cpu_type]]
A batch file, located in  directory, with the following commands,
works well:
cabwiz.exe c:\appsoft\\
cd \appsoft\
“inf_file” The SETUP.INF file path.
dest_directory The destination directory for the .CAB files. If no directory is specified, the .CAB files are created
in the “inf_file” directory.
error_file The file name for a log file that contains all warnings and errors that are encountered when the
.CAB files are compiled. If no file name is specified, errors are displayed in message boxes. If a file
name is used, the CAB Wizard runs without the user interface (UI); this is useful for automated
builds.
cpu_type Creates a .CAB file for each specified microprocessor tag, which is a label used in the Win32 SETUP.
INF file to differentiate between different microprocessor types. The /cpu parameter, followed
by multiple cpu_type values, must be the last qualifier in the command line.
Example
This example creates .CAB files for the ARM and MIPS microprocessors,
assuming the Win32 SETUP.INF file contains the ARM and MIPS tags:
cabwiz.exe ìc:\myfile.infî /err myfile.err /cpu arm mips
Note: CABWIZ.EXE, MAKECAB.EXE, and CABWIZ.DDF (Windows
CE files available on the Windows CE Toolkit) must be installed in the
same directory on the desktop computer. Call CABWIZ.EXE using its full
path for the CAB Wizard application to run correctly.
Troubleshooting the CABWizard
To identify and avoid problems that might occur when using the CAB
Wizard, follow these guidelines:
S Use %% for a percent sign (%) character when using this character in
CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
143
Chapter 7 — Programming
an .INF file string, as specified in Win32 documentation. This will not
work under the [Strings] section.
S Do not use .INF or .CAB files created for Windows CE to install applications
on Windows-based desktop platforms.
S Ensure the MAKECAB.EXE and CABWIZ.DDF files, included with
Windows CE, are in the same directory as CABWIZ.EXE.
S Use the full path to call CABWIZ.EXE.
S Do not create a .CAB file with the MAKECAB.EXE file included with
Windows CE. You must use CABWIZ.EXE, which uses
MAKECAB.EXE to generate the .CAB files for Windows CE.
S Do not set the read-only attribute for .CAB files.
Customization and Lockdown
Although many customers want a CE .NET device, some customers would
prefer that their users not have access to all of the CE .NET features. Intermec
cannot customize the operating system in any way but a custom
application can:
Delete items from the Start menu, and Programs folder. These items are just shortcuts in the file system so the application
is not really being deleted. Cold booting the device does bring these items back so the application will need
to run on every cold boot.
Use the RegFlushKey() API to save a copy of the registry to a storage device. See the 751G Management Tools portion
of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD for more information on how to do this. Saving a copy of the registry
restores most system settings in a cold boot situation.
Use the SHFullScreen() API in conjunction with other APIs to make the application take up the entire display and
prevent the start menu from being available.
Remap keys and disable keys on the keypad.
Create a custom SIP.
Make changes to the registry to configure the device.
Kernel I/O Controls
This describes the KernelIoControl() functions available to application
programmers. Most C++ applications need to prototype the function as
the following to avoid link and compile errors.
extern ìCî BOOL KernelIoControl(DWORD dwIoControlCode, LPVOID lpInBuf, DWORD
nInBufSize, LPVOID lpOutBuf, DWORD nOutBufSize, LPDWORD lpBytesReturned);
IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO
This IOCTL returns either the platform type or the OEMPLATFORM
name based on an input value.
Syntax
BOOL KernelIoControl( IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO, LPVOID
lpInBuf, DWORD nInBufSize, LPVOID lpOutBuf, DWORD
nOutBufSize, LPDWORD lpBytesReturned );
Parameters
144
CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 7 — Programming
lpInBuf Points to a DWORD containing either the
SPI_GETPLATFORMTYPE or SPI_GETOEMINFO value.
lpInBufSize Must set to sizeof(DWORD).
lpOutBuf Must point to a buffer large enough to hold the return data of the
function. If SPI_GETPLATFORMTYPE is specified in lpInBuf,
then the “XScale\0” Unicode string is returned. If SPI_GETOEMINFO
is specified in lpInBuf, then the “Intermec 751\0” Unicode
string is returned.
nOutBufSize The size of lpOutBuf in bytes. Must be large enough to hold the
string returned.
lpBytesReturned The actual number of bytes returned by the function for the data
requested.
Return Values
Returns TRUE if function succeeds. Returns FALSE if the function fails.
May use GetLastError() to get the extended error value.
IOCTL_HAL_ITC_READ_PARM
Usage
#include “oemioctl.h”
Syntax
BOOL KernelIoControl( IOCTL_HAL_ITC_READ_PARM,LPVOID
lpInBuf,DWORD nInBufSize,LPVOID lpOutBuf,DWORD
nOutBufSize,LPDWORD lpBytesReturned );
Parameters
lpInBuf Points to this structure. See “ID Field Values” below.
struct PARMS {
BYTE id;
BYTE ClassId;
};
nInBufSize Must set to the size of the PARMS structure.
lpOutBuf Must point to a buffer large enough to hold the return data of the
function. If this field is set to NULL and nOutBufSize is set to zero
when the function is called the function returns the number bytes
required by the buffer.
nOutBufSize The size of lpOutBuf in bytes.
lpBytesReturned Number of bytes returned by the function for the data requested.
Return Values
Returns TRUE if the function succeeds. Returns FALSE if the function
fails. May use GetLastError() to get the error value. Either
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER or
ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER may return when this function is
used to get the error.

Networking APIs
The API provided by Intermec Technologies exposes a limited set of routines
that allows a programmer to access and affect the 802.1x network
interface card from within their application. The routines provided also
reads/writes values to the CE registry that pertain to the 802.1x radio
driver.
By using the provided functions, a programmer can alter the 802.1x
parameters of Network Name (SSID), WEP keys, infrastructure modes,
radio channel, and power management modes. A programmer can also
retrieve
network connect status and signal strength indication from the RF
network card.
The API is contained within the 80211API.DLL file that should be present
in any load with the 802.1x networking installed.
PRISMNDS.DLL This file is the 802.1x driver. It is present in all 700 CE
loads that use the 802.1x network
interface card.
80211API.DLL This file is an Intermec authored file that provides the programmer with a set of API calls
to configure or monitor status of the 802.1x network.
80211PM.DLL This handles profile management for radio configurable
values.
URODDSVC.EXE This handles radio configuration and security authentication based on a selected profile.
There is a user interface to this service that provides status of the supplicant
as well as
status of the 8021x authentication process.
ZNICZIO.DLL A replacement for NDISUIO.DLL that supports the
Funk Supplicant.
The Profile Manager supports up to four radio configuration profiles.
These profiles are the same as those set by theWirelessNetwork control
