Configuring 802.11 Radio Communications
Caution: Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30 cm (1
ft) apart when power is applied. Failure to comply could result in
equipment damage.
The wireless 700 Color Computer has an internal 802.11b or 802.11b/g
radio to transfer data using wireless communications. This manual assumes
you already have set up your wireless communications network, including
your access points. If you are using a UDP Plus network, have your
Intermec Application Server communicate with a host computer. Your
700 Color Computer supports TCP/IP and UDP Plus.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a TCP/IP Network
In a TCP/IP network, the 700 Color Computer communicates with a host
computer directly using TCP/IP. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired and wireless networks.
1Configure the infrastructure mode, network name (SSID), host IP ad-
dress, and IP settings (if not using DHCP) on each 700 Color Comput-
er in the network.
2Configure security. Tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab>theWire-
less Network icon to access the Profile Wizard for the 802.11b or
802.11b/g radio module. Go to Appendix A, “Configurable Settings,”
for information.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a UDP Plus Network
In a UDP Plus network, the 700 Color Computer communicates with a
host computer through the Intermec Application Server. The Intermec
Application Server translates UDP Plus packets on the wireless network
into TCP/IP packets on the wired network and vice versa. The access
point acts as a bridge to allow communications between the wired and
wireless networks.
1Configure the network name (SSID), controller IP address, and IP set-
tings (if not using DHCP), and controller port (set to 5555) on each
700 Color Computer in the network.
2Configure security. Tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab>theWire-
less Network icon to access the Profile Wizard for the 802.11b or
802.11b/g radio module. Go to Appendix A, “Configurable Settings,”
for information.
The easiest way to configure the network parameters on the 700 Color
Computer is to use the Intermec Settings applet. Go to Appendix A,
“Configurable Settings.” for information.
Network Adapters
The 700 Color Computer can have up to three radios installed. The de-
fault network adapter or radio is dependent on what radios are installed in
your unit. The 700 Color Computer is capable of supporting 802.11i se-
curity requirements.

AutoIP/DHCP
Automatic Private IP Addressing (AutoIP) is enabled by default in
Windows Mobile 2003. To remain compatible with other versions of
Pocket PC, this setting needs to be enabled. You can configure the registry
settings in the following to set the required AutoIP/DHCP behavior:
SFor Ethernet: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\LAN9001\TcpIp
SFot 802.11: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\NETWLAN1\TcpIp
Other registry keys that can modify the behavior of AutoIP are as follows.
You can find the appropriate settings and behavior of each of these keys in
Microsoft Help.
SAutoInterval
SAutoMask
SAutoSubnet
SAutoIP
SAutoSeed
When a TCP/IP client cannot find a DHCP server, it generates an AutoIP
address from the 169.254.xxx.xxx block. The client then tries to check for
a DHCP server every 15 seconds and if a DHCP server is found, the client
drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the DHCP server.
In the MSDN Windows CE documentation available out on the Micro-
soft Developer Network web site (www.msdn.com), see “Automatic Client
Configuration” for more information on AutoIP.
To disable AutoIP, set the AutoCfg registry entry to “0.” If a DHCP serv-
er cannot be found, instead of using AutoIP, the system will display the
“Unable to obtain a server assigned IP address” message.
Note: If you try to disable AutoIP using a CAB file to set the registry value
for AutoIP, remember to set the EnableDHCP value to “1” to keep
DHCP enabled
Note: To extend the number of attempts that a DHCP client makes to get
a DHCP address, use the DhcpRetryDialogue and DhcpMaxRetry registry
settings.
Note: Change the AutoInterval registry key value to make the client retry
more often to obtain a DHCP address.

you are activating. The Electronic Serial Number (ESN hex 63xxxxxx)
that you need to supply to your carrier is located in two places:
SOn the outside of the 760 Computer shipping box.
SOn the inside of the 760 Computer battery compartment. The label
includes the term “ESN” and a bar code along with the serial number.
The ESN comes in both decimal and hexadecimal formats. Most carriers
accept either format, but with a preference for the decimal format. You
only need to provide one number to your carrier.
SThe decimal format consists of 11 digits, beginning with “099.”
SThe hexadecimal format is an 8-digit number, beginning with “63.”
Accounts for Verizon and Sprint carriers can be set up for data only. Cana-
dian carriers (Telus and Bell Mobility) can be set for data only, voice only,
or both voice and data. This is determined by your application and the
services your carrier offers.
After the all ESNs are provided to the carrier and the carrier has estab-
lished the accounts, you will be provided with the lock codes and tele-
phone numbers needed to complete the activation process. You use the
SB555 Watcher program to accomplish this task. Note this for future use.
Note: Ensure that you receive a spreadsheet with your order that calls out
all ESNs in both decimal and hexadecimal formats.
Note: Keep the activation information for your devices in a safe, accessible
place should you have any future issues.
Note: Not all of the elements listed are required by all service providers.

SNMP Configuration on the Mobile Computer
In short, SNMP is an application-layer protocol that facilitates the ex-
change of management information between network devices. The 700
Color Computer is such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to control
and configure the 700 Color anywhere on an SNMP-enabled network.
The 700 Color supports four proprietary Management Information Bases
(MIBs) and Intermec 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 manage-
ment station.
Management Information Base
The Management Information Base is a database that contains information
about the elements to be managed. The information identifies the manage-
ment element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, Read-
Write). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a ma-
chine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to be managed
are represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such objects.
Network SupportChapter —4
158 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
You will find the following MIB files either in the 700 Color Management
Tools or on the web via www.intermec.com:
SINTERMEC.MIB
Defines the root of the Intermec MIB tree.
SITCADC.MIB
Defines objects for Automated Data Collection (ADC), such as bar
code symbologies.
SITCSNMP.MIB
Defines objects for Intermec SNMP parameters and security methods,
such as an SNMP security IP address.
SITCTERMINAL.MIB
Defines objects for 700 Color parameters, such as key clicks.
Object Identifiers
Each object has a unique identifier called an OID, which consist of a se-
quence 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:
MIB-II Item OID Group or Table Description
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 ifNum-
ber =1andifIndex=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 informa-
tion 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 ad-
dress of the 700 Color Computer.
ipAdEntIfIndex 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.2.IpAddress IP address Table
(ipAddrTable)
The index value that uniquely iden-
tifies 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)
Subnet mask associated with the IP
address of this entry (Subnet Mask).

Configuring with SNMP
The community string allows an SNMP manager to manage the 700 Col-
or Computer with a specified privilege level. The default read-only com-
munity string is “public” and “private” is the default read/write communi-
ty string. See the specific configuration parameter to find its OID.
To configure using SNMP, configure 700 Color Computers for RF or
Ethernet communications. Determine the OID (Object Identifier) for the
parameter to be changed. The Intermec base OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1963.
Use your SNMP management station to get and set variables that are de-
fined in the Intermec MIBs. You can set the traps, identification, or secu-
rity configuration parameters for SNMP.

These methods for printing using Pocket PC at this time is as follows:
SAdd port drivers to print ASCII directly to the port.
SUse LinePrinter ActiveX Control from the Printing Resource Kit via the
Intermec Developer Library (IDL) available as a download from the In-
termec webs site at www.intermec.com/idl.Contact your Intermec rep-
resentative for more information.
SVia wireless printing - see the Bluetooth Resource Kit User’s Guide for more
information.
Directly to a Port
Printing directly to the port sends RAW data to the printer. The format of
this data depends upon your application and the printer capabilities.
You must understand the printer commands available for your specific
printer. Generally, applications just send raw ASCII text to the printer.
Since you are sending data to the printer from your application directly to
the port you are in complete control of the printers operations. This allows
youtodolineprinting(print one line at a time) rather than the page for-
mat printing offered by the GDI approach. It is also much faster since data
does not have to be converted from one graphics format to the other (dis-
play to printer). Most Intermec®printers use Epson Escape Sequences to
control print format operations.
These commands are available in documentation you receive with your
printers or from technical support. Win32 APIs are required to print di-
rectly to the port.
Directly to a Generic Serial Port
To print directly to a generic serial port printer (non-Intermec printers):
SUse CreateFile() to open ports — COM1 can open on most devices.
SUse WriteFile() to send data directly to the printer.
SUse CloseHandle() when you are finished printing to close the port.
IrDA Printer Driver
IrDA printing is only available on the certain devices and is supported di-
rectly by the Windows CE load via the IrSock API provided by the Micro-
soft Win32 API without need for additional drivers. Intermec 6804, 6805,
6806, 6808 and 6820 and other IrDA printers are supported.

NPCP Printer Driver
The NPCP printer communications driver (NPCPPORT.DLL) is a
Stream Device Driver built into the operating system. The driver supports
only NPCP communications to and from the 6820 and 4820 printers over
a selected serial port.
All applications use WIN32 API functions to access drivers. Applications
easily implement basic operations through the CreateFile(), WriteFile(),
ReadFile(), DeviceIOControl(), and CloseHandle() Win32 APIs.
DeviceIOControl() functions are used to do most upgrade printer mod-
ules, printer diagnostics, and get printer configurations.
About NPCP
NPCP (Norand®Portable Communications Protocol) is a proprietary
protocol that provides session, network, and datalink services for Intermec
mobile computers in the Intermec LAN environment used with printers
and data communications.
NPCP Driver Installation and Removal
Use LPT9: for the NPCP printer device and COM1 for the last parame-
ter. COM1 is the connection available via the 700 Color Computer.
Applications use the RegisterDevice() function to install the driver.
DeregisterDevice() uninstalls the device driver and frees memory space
when the driver is not required. Use the HANDLE returned by
RegisterDevice() as the parameter to DeregisterDevice().
Use the RegisterDevice() function call as demonstrated below. Specify the
full path name to the driver starting at the root for the RegisterDevice()
function to work properly. The last parameter to RegisterDevice() is a
DWORD that represents the name of the port for the NPCP stream
driver to use. Build this parameter on the stack if it is not to be paged out
during the call. The first parameter “LPT” (Device Name) and the second
parameter “9’ (index), indicate the name of the registered device, such as
LPT9. This is used in the CreateFile() function call.
Install()
{HANDLE hDevice;
TCHAR port[6];
port[0] = TCHAR(‘C’);
port[1] = TCHAR(‘O’);
port[2] = TCHAR(‘M’);
port[3] = TCHAR(‘1’);
port[4] = TCHAR(‘:’);
port[5] = TCHAR(0);
hDevice = RegisterDevice ( (TEXT(”LPT”), 9,
TEXT(“\\STORAGE CARD\\WINDOWS\\NPCPPORT.dll”), (DWORD)port);
}
Printer SupportChapter —5
164 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Opening the NPCP Driver
The application opens the NPCP driver by using the CreateFile()
function. The call can be implemented as follows. The first parameter
“LPT9:”mustreflectthedevicenameandindexusedinthe
RegisterDevice() function call and will fail for any of the following reasons:
hFile = CreateFile(_T(”LPT9:”), GENERIC_WRITE |
GENERIC_READ, 0, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);
SThe port associated with the device during RegisterDevice() is in use.
SThe NPCP device is already open.
SThe share mode is not set to zero. The device cannot be shared.
SAccess permissions are not set to GENERIC_WRITE |
GENERIC_READ. Both modes must be specified.
Closing the NPCP Driver
Using the CloseHandle() (hFile) function closes the NPCP driver. Where
hFile is the handle returned by the CreateFile() function call.
STRUE = the device is successfully closed.
SFALSE = an attempt to close NULL HANDLE or already closed device.
Reading from the NPCP Driver
Reading of the NPCP printers is not supported since all responses from
the printer are the result of commands sent to the printer.
DeviceIoControl() functions are provided where data is to be received
from the printer.
Writing to the NPCP Driver
All Print data can be sent to the printer using the WriteFile() function.
The print data written to the driver must contain the proper printer
commands for formatting. If the function returns FALSE, the NPCP error
may be retrieved using IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR. See the description on
the next page.
NPCP Driver I/O Controls
An application uses the DeviceIoControl() function to specify an printer
operation to be performed. Certain I/O controls are required to bind and
close communication sessions with the printer, and must be completed
before any other commands to the driver can execute properly.
The function returns TRUE to indicate the device successfully completed
its specified I/O control operation, otherwise it returns FALSE. The
following I/O control codes are defined:

SIOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL
This cancels all printing at the printer. It flushes the printer buffers and
reinitializes the printer to its default state. No parameters are required.
SIOCTL_NPCP_BIND
This command is required before any data is sent or received by the
printer. Once the driver is opened, the application must bind the com-
munications session with the printer before any data can be sent or re-
ceived by the printer. If an error occurs during the bind, the application
may use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the current extended error
code. No parameters are required.
SIOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE
This command closes the current session with the printer. This function
always returns TRUE. No parameters are required.
SIOCTL_NPCP_ERROR
This command returns the extended NPCP error code in PL/N format.
The word returned will contain the PL/N compatible error code in the
low byte and completion flags in the high byte. If the frame that re-
turned an error was not received correctly by the printer the
FRAME_NOT_ACKED bit will be set in the high byte. This operation
always returns TRUE. An output buffer of at least 2 bytes is required.
See “NPCP Error Codes” on page 166.
SIOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH
This command allows the application to poll the printer for errors while
the report is completing the print process at the printer. If an error oc-
curs during the polling process, the operation will return FALSE and
the application can get the extended error code by using
IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR. No parameters are required.
NPCP Printer Communications
All NPCP printer communications should be based on the following flow:
1Use CreateFile(); to open the printer driver.
2Use IOCTL_NPCP_BIND to bind a session with the printer;
IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to check for errors on the bind to ensure suc-
cess; and IOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL to cancel outstanding print jobs.
Printer SupportChapter —5
166 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
3Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer to free up printer buff-
er resources. Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’s status. If
an error is reported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR
to get the error and determine the correct recovery procedure.
4Use WriteFile(); to write data to the printer. Check for errors and that
alldatawerewritten.UseIOCTL_NPCP_ERRORtogettheextended
error. If the error is critical in nature, use IOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE, fol-
lowed by CloseFile(), to end the communications session. Start a new
session, beginning with step 1 to ensure proper printing. For noncritical
errors display the error and retry the operation.
5After all data is sent to the printer, ensure that the printer continues to
print the report properly by polling the printer’s status. Use
IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’s status. If an error is re-
ported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the
error and determine the correct recovery procedure.
Sample Code
See sample code in the “\700C Dev Tools\Installable Drivers\Port
Drivers\Npcp\NPCPPrint\” directory for more details on printing, printer
communications and error code handling.
NPCP Error Codes

O’Neil Printer Driver
The DTR printer communications driver is a Stream Device Driver
named ONEIL.DLL.
All applications use WIN32 API functions to access drivers. Applications
easily implement basic operations using the CreateFile(), WriteFile(),
DeviceIOControl() and CloseHandle() Win32 APIs.
The driver supports communications to 6804DM, 6804T, 6805A, 6806,
6808, 681T, PB20, and PB42 printers over a selected serial port.
DTR Driver Installation and Removal
Your application must use the RegisterDevice() function to install the
ONEIL.DDL device driver. Use “DTR” for the Device Name parameter,
“1” for the Device Driver index parameter, and any of these strings for the
last parameter:
SNULL (==0) Defaults to COM1 @ 9600
S“COM1” only COM port specified defaults to 9600
S“COM1:9600” sets to COM port and specified bit rate
S“COM1:19200” sets to COM port and specified bit rate
Use the HANDLE returned by RegisterDevice() as the parameter to
DeregisterDevice(). The correct usage of the RegisterDevice() function call
is shown below. You may use DeregisterDevice() to uninstall the driver.
Install()
{
HANDLE hDevice;
TCHAR port[6];
port[0] = TCHAR(‘C’);
port[1] = TCHAR(‘O’);
port[2] = TCHAR(‘M’);
port[3] = TCHAR(‘1’);
port[4] = TCHAR(‘:’);
port[5] = TCHAR(0);
hDevice = RegisterDevice ( (TEXT(”DTR”), 1, TEXT(”\\WINDOWS\\ONEIL.DLL”),
(DWORD)port);
}
Opening the DTR Driver
The application opens the DTR driver by using the CreateFile() function.
The call can be implemented as follows:
hFile = CreateFile(_T(”DTR1:”), GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL,
OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);
The first parameter “DTR1:” must reflect the device name and index used
in the RegisterDevice() function call.
Printer SupportChapter —5
168 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
The function call will fail for any of the following reasons:
SPort associated with device during RegisterDevice() is currently in use.
SThe DTR device is already open.
SThe share mode is not set to zero. The device cannot be shared.
SAccess permissions are not set to GENERIC_WRITE.
Closing the DTR Driver
Using the CloseHandle() (hFile) function closes the DTR driver. Where
hFile is the handle returned by the CreateFile() function call.
STRUE indicates the device is successfully closed.
SFALSE indicates an attempt to close a NULL HANDLE or an already
closed device.
Writing to the DTR Driver
Use the WriteFile() function to send all print data to the printer. The data
must contain the proper formatting printer commands.
DTR Printer Communications
All DTR printer communications should be based on the following flow:
1Use CreateFile() to open the printer driver.
2Use WriteFile() to write your data to the printer. Check for errors and
that all data were written.
3Use CloseHandle() to close the driver.

The 700 Series Color Mobile Computer is available with imaging or laser
scanning technologies, including the following:
APS Linear Imager:(standard for 730 Computers)
— includes the EV10 Scan Engine
Reads 1D symbologies and PDF417 bar codes. Linear imag-
ing using Vista Scanning technology reads low-contrast bar
codes, laminated bar codes, and bar codes displayed on CRT
or TRT displays. This imaging uses harmless LEDs for illu-
mination and does not require any warning labels. Vista Scan-
ning is more reliable than lasers as it is a completely solid state
with no moving parts or oscillating mirrors.
2D Imager:(not supported on 730 Computers)
— includes the IT4000 Scan Engine
This decodes several stacked 1D and 2D symbologies, includ-
ing PDF417, Data Matrix, and MaxiCode without “paint-
ing.” It can also read 1D codes from any orientation, for ex-
ample the scan beam does not need to align perpendicular to
the symbol to read it. Photography is a secondary application;
the lens in the device favors bar code reading. Photos are
640x480, 256 gray-scale.
1D Laser Scanner:(not supported on 730 Computers)
— includes the SE900, SE900HS, SE900-S6, and
SE900HS-S6 scan engines
Traditional laser scanner that decodes 1D bar codes.

Tethered Scanners
The Intermec Tethered Scanner feature allows Automatic Data Collection
(ADC) by accepting data from the COM1 port and wedging it into the
keyboard interface. You can enable or disable this feature from the Today
screen on the 700 Color Computer.
Configuring the Tethered Scanner
Before you configure your tethered scanner, adjust its settings using the
Intermec Settings applet. Information about the settings you can configure
with this applet is described in the Intermec Computer Command Reference
Manual. The online manual is available from the Intermec web site at
www.intermec.com.
1Connect your tethered scanner to the tethered scanner port.
2From the 700 Color Computer, tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab >
the Intermec Settings icon.
3Tap Data Collection, then tap (+) to expand Dock Tethered Scanner.

178 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
4Tap (+) to expand Scanner Settings,tapScanner model,thenenterthe
applicable scanner, such as “1551E” or “1553.”
5Make sure a scanner is properly connected to your 700 Computer, tap
to check Enable scanner port,thentapFile >Save Settings from the
bottom of the screen. These changes take several moments to reset.
1551E or 1553 Selected for Scanner Model
When “1551E” or “1553” is selected from the Scanner model option (see
step 4 above), and the port state is already enabled (see step 5),theprocess
will take several moments to reset. When 1551E or 1553 is successfully
connected during this step, the unit will emit some beeps. Here, the termi-
nal is initializing the scanner at 9600 for the baud rate, 7 data bits, even
parity, and 2 stop bits and synchronizing the terminal’s configuration with
the attached scanner.
With “1551E” or “1553” selected, Symbologies, Symbology Options,
Hardware Trigger, and Scanner Port settings are configured from the In-
termec Settings applet. See the the Intermec Computer Command Reference
6 Scanner Support—Chapter
179700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Manual, available from the Intermec web site at www.intermec.com, for
more information about each enabled option.
ASCII Selected for Scanner Model
To send data coming into the 700 Color Computer through the COM1
port from an external input device, as keyboard data to an application on
the desktop, do the following:
1Enter “ASCII” as the Scanner model option.
2Tap to check Enable scanner port.
3Tap File >Save Settings from the bottom of the screen, or tap Yes
when prompted to refresh the scanner settings.
With “ASCII” selected, Symbology Options, Hardware Trigger, and Scan-
ner Port settings are configured from the Intermec Settings applet. See the
the Intermec Computer Command Reference Manual, available from the In-
termec web site at www.intermec.com, for more information about each
enabled option.
Note: When selecting either the 1551E or the 1553 Scanner or enabling
the scanner port for these scanners, the 700 Computer tries to communi-
cate with the attached scanner. If the scanner is not powered, if the cable is
not connected properly, the wrong cable is used, or if the scanner firmware
is older than 2.0, and the “Failed to save one or more settings” message
appears, then this step failed.
This process can take time as the terminal is going through a group of
RS-232 settings to communicate with the scanner. After successful com-
municated with the scanner (about eight beeps are generated), it initializes
the scanner with the 700 Computer’s current settings. This process might
generate a series of beeps pending on the firmware version installed in the
scanner. These beeps are suppressed in firmware versions 2.08 or greater.
Troubleshooting the 1551E/1553 Tethered Scanner
Do the following to troubleshoot your 1551E/1553 Tethered Scanner:
1Ensure the correct cable is used for the scanner on the tethered scanner
port. Note the 700 Computer cannot supply power to the scanner.
2Perform a quick test to determine whether the connection is good.
Temporary select the scanner model as “ASCII,” then enable the scan-
ner port state. Go to a command prompt or a notepad and scan a data
label. If a label is wedged into the command prompt or notepad, then
the connection is good.
3If step 2 passes, reset the scanner configurations to their defaults (scan
the Reset Factory Defaults label on the next page) to prevent miscom-
munication, then reenable the scanner port state.
4If step 2 fails, then the firmware installed in the tethered scanner may be
older than version 2.0. Upgrade your scanner firmware.
Scanner SupportChapter —6
180 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Reset Factory Defaults
Scan the EasySet software bar code label “Reset Factory Default” to restore
all of your scanner’s configurations to their factory defaults. When this
command label is scanned, reinitialize the tethered scanner (such as disable
the scanner port state, then enable it) on the 700 Computer. Otherwise,
the online configuration and scanning on the 700 Computer are not func-
tional. In general, scan this label only to initially reset the scanner.
Do not scan EasySet command labels to change the following settings:
SSymbologies code mark SCode 128, EAN29 Identifier
SPreamble and Postamble SEnable/Disable symbologies
SSymbology ID transmit option
In some cases, scanning EasySet Command labels cause the current setting
on the user interface to be out of sync with the scanner settings. However,
in some cases, scanning these labels does corrupt scanned data.
The “Open COMx error: 0x00000037” message appears if the COM port
cannot open due to another application using the port. Disable that ap-
plication to free up the COM1 port before you can enable the scanner. “x”
is the COM port number, such as 1, 2, or 3.
Tethered Scanner Supported Symbologies
The user interface may allow configuration of PDF417, Micro PDF417,
RSS, and Codablock bar code symbologies. However, these symbologies
are dependant on what scanner models and firmware versions are in use.
See the following table for a guideline on each supported symbology:
You can use a generic ASCII scanner with the 700 Color Computer.
Pending on the scanner, linear symbologies such as Code39, should de-
code correctly. However, 2D symbologies such as PDF417 may not de-
code correctly.

Attached RFID Readers
Note: The 700 Color Computer currently supports only the IP4 Intellitag
Portable RFID Reader, a trigger handle accessory that lets you hold your
700 Color Computer like a reader or scanner. Contact your Intermec rep-
resentative for more information.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems evolved as a way to provide
all the benefits of visual scanning systems, while overcoming many of their
limitations. Radio frequency (RF) describes electromagnetic waves in the
10 kHz to 10 GHz range. Electronic identification (ID) systems transfer
data messages from an object to be identified to a data management sys-
tem. RFID systems use radio frequency to transfer data between an item
being tracked and a reader/writer. It is a fast, automatic identification
technology.
More information about RFID and the IP4 Reader are in the following
Intermec publications. PDFs of these publications are available from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com.

Creating CAB Files
The Windows CE operating system uses a .CAB file to install an applica-
tion 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:
SAll application files are present.
SA partial installation is prevented.
SThe 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:
1Create an .INF file with Windows CE-specific modifications (page
188).
2Optional Create a SETUP.DLL file to provide custom control of the
installation process (page 197).
3Use the CAB Wizard to create the .CAB file, using the .INF file, the
optional SETUP.DLL file, and the device-specific application files as
parameters (page 201).
Creating an .INF File
An .INF file specifies information about an application for the CAB Wi-
zard. Below are the sections of an .INF file:
[Version]
This specifies the creator of the file, version, and other relevant informa-
tion.
Required? Yes
SSignature:“signature_name”
“$Windows NT$”
SProvider:“INF_creator”
The company name of the application, such as “Microsoft.”
SCESignature
“$Windows CE$”
Example
[Version]
Signature = “$Windows NT$”
Provider = “Intermec”
CESignature = “$Windows CE$”

exists but no data, the previous value is not overridden.
Required? Yes
SProcessorType :processor_type
The value that is returned by SYSTEMINFO.dwProcessorType.For
example, the value for the ARM CPU is 2577
SUnsupportedPlatforms:platform_family_name
This lists known unsupported platform family names. If the name
specified in the [CEDevice.xxx] section is different from that in the
[CEDevice] section, both platform_family_name values are unsupported
for the microprocessor specified by xxx. That is, the list of unsupported
platform family names is appended to the previous list of unsupported
names. Application Manager will not display the application for an
unsupported platform. Also, a user will be warned during the setup
process if the .CAB file is copied to an unsupported device.

gives basic information for any CPU and two that are specific to the SH3
and the MIPS microprocessors.
[CEDevice] ; A “template” for all platforms
UnsupportedPlatforms = pltfrm1 ; Does not support pltfrm1
; The following specifies version 1.0 devices only.
VersionMin = 1.0
VersionMax = 1.0
[CEDevice.ARM] ; Inherits all [CEDevice] settings
; This will create a .CAB file specific to ARM devices.
ProcessorType = 2577 ; ARM .cab file is valid for ARM microprocessors.
UnsupportedPlatforms = ; pltfrm1 is still unsupported
; The following overrides the version settings so that no version checking is
performed.
VersionMin =
VersionMax =
[CEDevice.MIPS] ; Inherits all [CEDevice] settings
; This will create a .CAB file specific to “MIPS” devices.
ProcessorType = 4000 ; MIPS .CAB file is valid for MIPS
microprocessor.
UnsupportedPlatforms =pltfrm2 ; pltfrm1,pltfrm2 unsupported for MIPs .CAB
file.
Note: To create the two CPU-specific .CAB files for the SETUP.INF file
in the previous example, run the CAB Wizard with the “/cpu arm mips”
parameter.

Using Installation Functions in SETUP.DLL
SETUP.DLL is an optional file that enables you to perform custom opera-
tions during installation and removal of your application. The following
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 reinstal-
ling 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 applica-
tion installation.
Uninstall_Init Called before the removal process begins. Use this function to close the application, if the applica-
tion 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 rein-
stall the application.
Note;Use[DefaultInstall] >CESelfRegister (page 191) in the .INF file to
point to SETUP.DLL.

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. Below is the command-line syntax:
cabwiz.exe “inf_file” [/dest dest_directory] [/err error_file] [/cpu cpu_type
[cpu_type]]
A batch file in <program> directory, with these commands, works well:
cabwiz.exe c:\appsoft\<program>\<inf_file_name>
cd \appsoft\<program>
“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 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 SE-
TUP.INF file to differentiate between different microprocessor types. The /cpu parameter, fol-
lowed 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 “c:\myfile.inf” /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 CAB Wizard
To identify and avoid problems that might occur when using the CAB
Wizard, follow these guidelines:
SUse %% for a percent sign (%) character when using this character in
an .INF file string, as specified in Win32 documentation. This will not
work under the [Strings] section.
SDo not use .INF or .CAB files created for Windows CE to install ap-
plications on Windows-based desktop platforms.
SEnsure the MAKECAB.EXE and CABWIZ.DDF files, included with
Windows CE, are in the same directory as CABWIZ.EXE.
SUse the full path to call CABWIZ.EXE.
SDo 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.
SDo not set the read-only attribute for .CAB files.

Customization and Lockdown
Pocket PC (Windows Mobile) is a hardware specification created by
Microsoft Corporation. Devices that wish to carry the Pocket PC logo
must meet the minimum hardware requirements set in the Pocket PC spe-
cification. Manufacturers are free to add extra hardware functionality.
Pocket PC devices also use a specialized version of the CE operating sys-
tem. This operating system is built from Windows CE 4.2 but contains
customizations, most notably the lack of a desktop and the addition of the
Today Screen.
To carry the Pocket PC logo, all devices must be tested at an Independent
Test Laboratory. The ITL testing is done based on Microsoft require-
ments. The test lab then reports the findings back to Microsoft Corpora-
tion and Intermec. If the 700 Color Computer passed all tests, Intermec is
allowed to ship the device with the Pocket PC logo. Each time the operat-
ing system is modified, Intermec must resubmit to ITL testing.
This means we cannot change the operating system much and still be a
Pocket PC device. For example, if we remove Word from the Start menu,
thedevicewouldfailITLtestingandwewouldnotbeabletoshipdevices
with the Pocket PC logo.
Although many customers want a Pocket PC device, some customers
would prefer that their users not have access to all of the Pocket PC featu-
res. Intermec cannot customize the operating system in any way but a cus-
tom application can:
Delete items from the Start menu, and Programs folder. These items are just shortcuts in the file system so the ap-
plication is not really being deleted. Cold booting the device will bring these items back so the application will need
toberunoneverycoldboot.
Use the RegFlushKey() API to save a copy of the registry to a storage device. See the 700 Color Management Tools
portion 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.
Should you want your 700 Color Computer to display a full screen, keep
in mind that your computer is Pocket-PC certified by Microsoft Corpora-
tion. Check out resources on programming for the Pocket PC, using the
following links. These give full instructions on how to display full screen.

plications using an SHFullScreen() API:

FTP Server
FTP support is provided through the FTP Server application
FTPDCE.EXE (MS Windows CE Versions) which is provided as part the
base system.
FTPDCE is the Internet File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server process. The
server can be invoked from an application or command line. Besides ser-
vicing FTP client requests the FTP Server also send a “network announce-
ment” to notify prospective clients of server availability.
Note: You should consult the RFC959 specification for proper use of
some of these commands at the following URL:
Swww.ietf.org/rfc/rfc959.txt for the text version, or
Swww.w3.org/Protocols/rfc959/ for an html version
Do the following to send commands:
1Start an FTP client and connect to the device FTP server.
2Log in with “intermec” as the user name and “cr52401” - the password.
3From the FTP client, send the command.
4Wait for a response.
Synopsis
ftpdce [options ]
Options
–Aaddr (where addr is in the form of a.b.c.d) Sets the single target address to which to send the network an-
nouncement. Default is broadcast.
–Bbyte Sets the FTP data block size. Smaller sizes may be useful over slower links. Default is 65536.
–Cname Sets the device name. Used by Intermec management software.
–Fvalue Disables the default Intermec account. A value of “0” disables the account. Default is “1”.
Note that disabling the default account without providing a working access control list on the server
will result in a device that will not accept any FTP connections.
–Hsec Sets the interval between network announcements in seconds.A value of “0” turns the network an-
nouncement off. Default is 30 seconds.
–Iaddr (where addr is in the form of a.b.c.d) Sets the preferred 6920 Communications Server (optional).
–Llog (where log is either “0” or “1”) Sets the state of logging. Default is 0 (disabled).
–Nsec Specifies the number of seconds to wait before initially starting FTP server services.
–Pport Sets the UDP port on which the network announcement will be sent. Default port is 52401.
–Qport Sets the port on which the FTP Server will listen for connections. Defaultportis21.
–Rdir Sets the FTP mount point to this directory. Default is the root folder of the object store.
–Tscrip Sets the script name for the 6920 Communications Server to process.
–Uurl Sets the default URL for this device.
–Z“parms” Sets extended parameters to be included in the network announcement.

Configurable Parameters Via the Registry Editor
These parameters receive default values during the Intermec FTP Server
component installation. Few of the parameters are visible in the registry by
default, but most must be created to modify the FTP server behavior.
BlockSize
Setting this parameter configures the Intermec FTP Server to transmit and
receive Ethernet packets using the specified data block size. By default, the
FTP server transmits and receives data using a 64K data block size. Adjust-
ing this value may be useful in certain wireless TCP/IP installations.
Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP
Value Type REG_DWORD - data block size, in bytes.
Valid Range 0x100-0x10000 (256-65536 decimal).
Default 65536
DeviceName
This configures the Intermec FTP Server to include the specified device
name in the Intermec Device Network Announcement (IDNA). Adjusting
this value may assign a symbolic name to this device for asset tracking.
Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP
Value Type REG_SZ
Valid Range None.
Default None.
DeviceURL
This parameter configures the Intermec FTP Server to transmit the speci-
fied URL in the IDNA. This can be used by Intermec management soft-
ware for asset management.
Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP

Transferring Files Over TCP/IP Networks
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server transfers files over TCP/IP net-
works. The FTPDCE.EXE program is a version that does not display a
window, but can run in the background.
FTPDCE is the Internet File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server process. The
server can be invoked from an application or command line. Besides ser-
vicing FTP client requests, the FTP Server also sends a “network an-
nouncement” to notify prospective clients of server availability.

SSecurity:
A customer configurable access control list may be installed on the
700 Color Computer. This list will allow customers to restrict access
via the FTP Server to users they wish and is in addition to default
Intermec accounts that are disabled using the -F0 option at runtime.
The access control list is named FTPDCE.TXT and is placed in the
same directory on the 700 Color Computer as the FTPDCE.EXE
server. The FTP Server encrypts this file to keep the information safe
from unauthorized users. This file is encrypted when the FTP Server
is started so a file that is placed onto the 700 Color Computer after
the FTP Server starts will require a restart of the FTP Server to take
effect.
The format of the FTPDCE.TXT is as follows:
FTPDCE:user1!passwd1<cr><lf>user2!passwd2<cr><lf>user3
!passwd3<cr><lf>...
Note: The user accounts and passwords are case sensitive.
Once the access control list is encrypted on the 700 Color Computer,
the FTP Server hides this file from users. Once an access control list
is installed on the 700 Color Computer, a new one is not accepted by
the FTP Server until the previous one is removed. Encrypted access
control lists are not portable between 700 Color Computers.
Stopping the FTP Server from Your Application
To allow application programmers the ability to programmatically shut
down the FTP Server, the FTP Server periodically tests to see if a named
event is signaled. ITC_IFTP_STOP is the name of this event.
Programming—Chapter 7

For examples on how to use events, consult the Microsoft Developer Net-
work Library at www.msdn.com. The MSDN Library is an essential re-
source for developers using Microsoft tools, products, and technologies. It
contains a bounty of technical programming information, including sam-
ple code, documentation, technical articles, and reference guides.
Autostart FTP
This automatically starts the FTP Server (FTPDCE.EXE) when the 700
Color Computer is powered on. This is provided with the NDISTRAY
program (the Network Driver Interface Specification tray application),
which displays the popup menu that currently allows you to load and un-
load the network drivers. Tap the antenna icon in the System Tray of the
Today screen (a sample antenna icon is circled below) for this pop-up menu.
The default is to start the FTP Server at boot time, unless the following
registry entry is defined and set to “0” which disables AutoFTP. “1” en-
ables the AutoFTP. The entry can be set from the NDISTRAY pop-up
menu by selecting either AutoFTP On or AutoFTP Off.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Intermec\Ndistray\StartupIFTP
These new entries are located below the selections to load the network
drivers. If the StartupIFTP registry key is not defined, the FTP Server is
loaded by default, to provide “out-of-the-box” capability for customers
who want to begin loading files to the 700 Color Computer without any
prior configuration.
Note: If a network driver is unloaded using the NDISTRAY popup menu,
and the FTP Server is running, the FTP Server is stopped.
On a resume, if AutoFTP is enabled and the FTP Server is running, it is
stopped and restarted. NDISTRAY uses a helper application named
RESETIFTP to implement the restart on resume feature.
ProgrammingChapter —7
210 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
To do an AutoFTP Installation Check:
1Ensure the FTP Server is running “out-of-the-box” the first time.
2Tap Start >Today to access the Today screen, then tap the antenna
icon in the System Tray to bring up the NDISTRAY pop-up menu.
Select AutoFTP Off to disable AutoFTP. Do a warm boot and confirm
the FTP Server is not running.
3Tap Start >Today to access the Today screen, then tap the antenna
icon in the System Tray to bring up the NDISTRAY pop-up menu.
Select AutoFTP On to enable AutoFTP, reboot, confirm it is running.
4Unload the network driver when the FTP Server is running and con-
firm that it is not running any more.
5Load the FTP Server, establish a connection, then suspend and resume.
The server should still run, but the FTP connection to the client should
be dropped.
Kernel I/O Controls
This describes the KernelIoControl() functions available to application
programmers. Most C++ applications will need to prototype the function
as the following to avoid link and compile errors.
extern “C” BOOL KernelIoControl(DWORD dwIoControlCode, LPVOID lpInBuf, DWORD
nInBufSize, LPVOID lpOutBuf, DWORD nOutBufSize, LPDWORD lpBytesReturned);
You can also see the Device Resource Kit in the Intermec Developer Li-
brary (IDL) for information about these functions. The IDL is available as
a download from the Intermec web site at www.intermec.com/idl. Contact
your Intermec representative for more information.

Network Selection APIs
Network Selection APIs change the network adapter configuration pro-
grammatically. See the Communications Resource Kit in the IDL for in-
formation about these APIs. The IDL is available as a download from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com/idl. Contact your Intermec repre-
sentative for more information.
Notifications
Use the following information to programmatically control the vibrator, to
write an application to turn on the vibrator when a message is received via
the WLAN radio link, and turn it off when the user hits a key.
Vibrator support is in the NLED driver as a false LED. The vibrator is
LED 5 and identified with an CycleAdjust of –1. The vibrate option is
available in the notifications panel when the vibrator is in the system.
Regarding an applications interface to NLED.DLL, LEDs must be avail-
able for applications to use through the COREDLL.DLL file. To use the
LED functions, declare these as extern ”C” as follows:
extern ”C” BOOL WINAPI NLEDGetDeviceInfo(UINT nInfoId, void *pOutput);
extern ”C” BOOL WINAPI NLEDSetDevice( UINT nDeviceId, void *pInput);
The LEDs are enumerated for access through the data structures associated
with these APIs:
SNotification LED 0
SRadio On LED 1 (does not apply to the 730 Computer)
SAlpha Lock LED 2
SScanner LED 3
SLow Battery 4
SVibrator 5 (does not apply to the 730 Computer)

There are several methods, via Kernel I/O Control functions, that an ap-
plication program can use to force the 700 Color Computer to reboot.
You can also see the Device Resource Kit in the IDL for information
about these functions. The IDL is available as a download from the Inter-
mec web site at www.intermec.com/idl. Contact your Intermec representa-
tive for information.
SIOCTL_HAL_REBOOT
This performs a warm-boot (page 219). See note below.
SIOCTL_HAL_COLDBOOT
Forces a cold reboot. This resets the 700 Color Computer, reloads Win-
dows CE as if a power-up was performed, and discards the contents of
the Windows CE RAM-based object store (page 217).
SIOCTL_HAL_WARMBOOT
Performs a system warm-boot, preserving the object store (page 217).
Note: Using IOCTL_HAL_REBOOT is no longer recommended, use
either IOCTL_HAL_WARMBOOT or IOCTL_HAL_COLDBOOT.
IOCTL_HAL_REBOOT is still supported for backward-compatibility
but its use can lead to difficulties.

Remapping the Keypad
Note: Use caution when remapping the keypad. Improper remapping may
render the keypad unusable. Data within the 700 Color Computer could
also be lost, should any problems occur.
Applications have the ability to remap keys on the 700 Color Numeric
Keypad and 700 Color Alphanumeric Keypad. This will allow applications
to enable keys that would otherwise not be available, such as the [F1]
function key. Also, to disable keys that should not be available, such as the
alpha key because no alpha entry is required. Care should be exercised
when attempting to remap the keypad because improper remapping may
cause the keypad to become unusable. This can be corrected by cold boot-
ing the device which loads the default keymap again.
Note that remapping the keys in this way affects the key mapping for the
entire system, not just for the application that does the remapping.
There are three “planes” supported for the 700 Color Numeric Keypad
and Alphanumeric Keypad. Keys that are to be used in more than one shift
plane must be described in each plane.
Unshifted Plane
The unshifted plane contains values from the keypad when not pressed
with other keys, such as the following:

Gold Plane
The gold plane contains values from the keypad when a key is simulta-
neously pressed with the [Gold] bkey on the numeric keypad or the
[Gold/White] ckey on the alphanumeric keypad, such as the following:

Key Values
Key values are stored in the registry. All units ship with a default key
mapping in its registry. Applications to change the default mapping need
to read the appropriate key from the registry into an array of Words,
modify the values required and then write the updated values back into the
registry. The registry access can be done with standard Microsoft API calls,
such as RegOpenKeyEx(), RegQueryValueEx(), and RegSetValueEx().
Numeric Keypad
The following registry keys contain the plane mappings:
SThe unshifted plane mapping can be found in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\Vkey
SThe gold plane mapping can be found in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\VkeyGold
SThe alpha plane mapping can be found in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\VkeyAlpha
Alphanumeric Keypad
The following registry keys contain the plane mappings:
SThe unshifted plane mapping can be found in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\ALPHA\Vkey
SThe gold plane mapping can be found in the registry at:

SThe alpha plane mapping can be found in the registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\ALPHA\VkeyAlpha
How Key Values Are Stored in Registry
To know which fields to update in the registry, you must know what Scan
Codes are assigned to each physical key (see the “Keypad Scan Codes and
Meanings” table on the next page). The Scan Code is used at the lowest
level of the system to let the keypad driver know which physical key has
been pressed. The keypad driver takes that scan code and looks it up in a
table (a copy of the one stored in the registry) to determine which values
to pass on to the operating system.
Programming—Chapter 7
225700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Each registry key is just an array that describes to the keypad driver what
value needs to be passed for each physical key. The key values are indexed
by the scan code, this is a zero-based index. For example in the unshifted
plane, the [4] key has a scan code of 0x06. This means that the seventh
word under the “Vkey” registry key will have the value for the [4] key.
Taking a sample of the “Vkey” registry key shows the following values:
00,00,0B,05,02,03,C1,07,04,03,BE,00,34,00,00,00,. . .
The value is 34,00. The values are in reverse byte order as that is the way
the processor handles data. When writing an application, nothing needs to
be done to swap the bytes, as this will happen automatically when the data
is read into a byte value. This is something you just need to be aware of
when looking at the registry. Knowing this, we can see that the value that
the keypad driver will pass to the system is a hex 34. Looking that up on
an UNICODE character chart, we see that it maps to a “4”. If you wanted
the key, labeled “4”, to output the letter “A” instead, you would need to
change the seventh word to “41” (the hexadecimal representation of “A”
from the UNICODE chart), then put the key back into the registry.
If you wish to disable a certain key, remap its scan code to 0x00.
Note: Do not remap scan codes 0x01, 0x41, 0x42, 0x43, 0x44. Doing so
could make your 700 Color Computer unusable until you do a cold-boot.
Change Notification
Changing registry keys does not immediately change key mappings. To
notify the keypad driver the registry is updated, use the CreateEvent() API
to signal the “ITC_KEYBOARD_CHANGE” named event.
Advanced Keypad Remapping
It is also possible to map multiple key presses to one button and to map
named system events to a button. The multiple key press option could be
useful to cut down on the number of keys needed to press in a given situa-
tion or to remap which key behaves like the action key. Mapping events to
a button could be useful to change which buttons will fire the scanner,
control volume, and allow for suspending and resuming the device. Con-
tact Intermec Technical Support for more information.

Note: “700 Color” pertains to 740, 741, 750, 751, 760, and 761 Com-
puters unless otherwise noted.
The contents of the Intermec Settings applet are dependent on what hard-
ware configuration is done for each 700 Color Computer at the time of
shipment. These settings currently only appear if a scanner or an imager
option is present.
Likewise, other applets that are specifically related to the 802.11b or
802.11b/g radio module appear when a 802.11b or 802.11b/g radio mod-
ule is installed in a 700 Color Computer. Applets that are specific for
Bluetooth, CDMA/1xRTT, and GSM/GPRS radio modules only appear
when each respective hardware configuration is done on the 700 Color
Computer. See Chapter 4, “Network Support,” for more information about
the radio modules or Bluetooth.
Information about using reader commands and configuration bar codes to
configure some of your settings is also in this appendix.

Wireless Network Applet
Note: See Chapter 4, “Network Support,” for information about the
802.11b or 802.11b/g radio module.
About the Wireless Network
Your wireless adapter (network interface card) connects to wireless net-
works of two types: infrastructure networks and ad-hoc networks.
SInfrastructure networks get you onto your corporate network and the
internet. Your 700 Color Computer establishes a wireless connection to
an access point, which links you to the rest of the network. When you
connect to a network via an access point, you are using the 802.11b or
802.11b/g infrastructure mode.
SAd-hoc networks are private networks shared between two or more cli-
ents, even with no access point.
Each wireless network is assigned a name (or Service Set Identifier —
SSID) to allow multiple networks to coexist in the same area without in-
fringement.
Intermec recommends using security measures with wireless networks to
prevent unauthorized access to your network and to ensure your privacy of
transmitted data. The following are required elements for secure networks:
SAuthentication by both the network and the user
SAuthentication is cryptographically protected
STransmitted data
There are many schemes available for implementing these features.
Terminology
Below and on the next page are terms you may encounter as you configure
your wireless network:
SCKIP (Cisco Key Integrity Protocol)
This is Cisco’s version of the TKIP protocol, compatible with Cisco
Airnet products.
Configurable SettingsAppendix —A
236 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
SEAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol)
802.11b or 802.11b/g uses this protocol to perform authentication.
This is not necessarily an authentication mechanism, but is a common
framework for transporting actual authentication protocols. Intermec
provides a number of EAP protocols to choose for your network.
STKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
This protocol is part of the IEEE 802.11i encryption standard for wire-
less LANs., which provides per-packet key mixing, a message integrity
check and a re-keying mechanism, thus overcoming most of the weak
points of WEP. This encryption is more difficult to crack than the stan-
dard WEP. Weak points of WEP include:
SNo Installation Vector (IV) reuse protection
SWeak keys
SNo protection against message replay
SNo detection of message tampering
SNo key updates
SWEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption
With preconfigured WEP, both the client 700 Color Computer and
access point are assigned the same key, which can encrypt all data be-
tween the two devices. WEP keys also authenticate the 700 Color Com-
puter to the access point — unless the 700 Color Computer can prove
it knows the WEP key, it is not allowed onto the network.
WEP keys are only needed if they are expected by your clients. There
are two types available: 64-bit (5-character strings, 12345) (default) and
128-bit (13-character strings, 1234567890123). Enter these as either
ASCII (12345) or Hex (0x3132333435).
SWPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
This is an enhanced version of WEP that does not rely on a static,
shared key. It encompasses a number of security enhancements over
WEP, including improved data encryption via TKIP and 802.11b or
802.11b/g authentication with EAP.
WiFi Alliance security standard is designed to work with existing
802.11 products and to offer forward compatibility with 802.11i.
Configuring Your Wireless Network
To start 802.11b or 802.11b/g communications on the 700 Color
Computer, tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab > Wireless Network to
access the Profile Wizard for the 802.11b or 802.11b/g radio module.
A profile contains all the information necessary to authenticate you to the
network, such as login name, password or certificate, and protocols by
which you are authenticated.
You can have up to four profiles for different networks. For example, you
may have different login names or passwords on different networks, or you
may use a password on one network, and a certificate on another.

PEAP (Protected EAP)
This protocol is suitable for performing secure authentication against Win-
dows domains and directory services. It is comparable to EAP-TTLS (see

flexible. This does not support the range of inside-the-tunnel authentica-
tion methods supported by EAP-TTLS. Microsoft and Cisco both support
this protocol.

TLS (EAP-TLS)
EAP-TLS is a protocol that is based on the TLS (Transport Layer Security)
protocol widely used to secure web sites. This requires both the user and
authentication server have certificates for mutual authentication. While
cryptically strong, this requires corporations that deploy this to maintain a
certificate infrastructure for all their users.

TTLS (EAP-Tunneled TLS)
This protocol provides authentication like EAP-TLS (see page 242) but
does not require certificates for every user. Instead, authentication servers
are issued certificates. User authentication is done using a password or oth-
er credentials that are transported in a securely encrypted “tunnel” estab-
lished using server certificates.
EAP-TTLS works by creating a secure, encrypted tunnel through which
you present your credentials to the authentication server. Thus, inside
EAP-TTLS there is another inner authentication protocol that you must
configure via Additional Settings.
Use “TTLS” to configure the use of EAP-TTLS as an authentication pro-
tocol, and select either “Open” or “WPA” as an association mode.

EAP-FAST (EAP -Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel)
The EAP-FAST protocol is a client-server security architecture that en-
crypts EAP transactions with a TLS tunnel. While similar to PEAP, it dif-
fers significantly as EAP-FAST tunnel establishment is based on strong se-
crets unique to users. These secrets are called Protected Access Credentials
(PACs), which CiscoSecure ACS generates using a master key known only
to CiscoSecure ACS. Because handshakes based upon shared secrets are
intrinsically faster than handshakes based upon PKI, EAP-FAST is the sig-
nificantly faster of the two solutions that provide encrypted EAP transac-
tions. No certificate management is required to implement EAP-FAST.
Use “EAP-FAST” to configure the use of EAP-FAST as an authentication
protocol, select “Open,” “WPA,” or “Network EAP” as an association
mode. Note this defaults to the Network EAP.

SDetect Rogue APs:
Wireless NICs and APs associate based on the SSID configured for the
NIC. Given an SSID, the BSSID with the strongest signal is often cho-
sen for association. After association, 802.1x authentication may occur
and during authentication credentials to uniquely identify a user —
these are passed between the NIC and the AP.
The base 802.1x technology does not protect the network from “rogue
APs.” These can mimic a legitimate AP to authentication protocols and
user credentials. This provides illegal users ways to mimic legitimate us-
ers and steal network resources and compromise security.
Check this box to detect and report client behavior suspected of being
rogue APs. Once a rouge AP is detected, your 700 Series Computer no
longer associates with that AP until you perform a warm boot.
Clear this box to solve AP connection problems that result when an AP
gets put on the rogue AP list due to inadvertent failed authentications
and not because it is a real rouge.
