Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode where a few quick trial efforts master it. However,
consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
•
Range
•
•
Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the bar code. This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics.
• Scanning within range brings quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents
decodes. Move the scanner closer and farther away to find the right working range for the bar codes being
scanned.
Angle
Send Feedback | February 2014 | MN000xxxA01
Data Capture | 95
•
•
•
•
Scan angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the scanner
from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner.
To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce directly back. But do not scan at too sharp an
angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice
quickly shows what tolerances to work within.
Hold the device farther away for larger symbols.
Move the device closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
Bar Code Capture with Linear Imager

Procedure:

Configuring for a Proxy Server
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers.
A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource,
available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example,
it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource
by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client.
It is important for enterprise customers to be able to set up secure computing environments within their companies,
and proxy configuration is an essential part of doing that. Proxy configuration acts as a security barrier ensuring that
the proxy server monitors all traffic between the Internet and the intranet. This is normally an integral part of security
enforcement in corporate firewalls within intranets.

Bluetooth
Bluetooth-equipped devices can communicate without wires, using frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) radio
frequency (RF) to transmit and receive data in the 2.4 GHz Industry Scientific and Medical (ISM) band (802.15.1).
Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (10 meters (32.8 feet) ) communication and
low power consumption.
Send Feedback | February 2014 | MN000xxxA01
Wireless | 113
Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other
Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.
Adaptive Frequency Hopping
Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with
Bluetooth voice. All devices in the piconet (Bluetooth network) must be AFH-capable in order for AFH to work.
There is no AFH when connecting and discovering devices. Avoid making Bluetooth connections and discoveries
during critical 802.11b communications. AFH for Bluetooth consists of four main sections:
•
•
•
Channel Classification - A method of detecting an interference on a channel-by-channel basis, or pre-defined
channel mask.
Link Management - Coordinates and distributes the AFH information to the rest of the Bluetooth network.
Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively reducing the number of hopping channels.
Channel Maintenance - A method for periodically re-evaluating the channels.
AR
•
When AFH is enabled, the Bluetooth radio “hops around” (instead of through) the 802.11b high-rate channels. AFH
coexistence allows Motorola Enterprise Tablets to operate in any infrastructure.
The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5 mW
and the expected range is 10 meters (32.8 ft.). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain due to
power and device differences, and whether one measures open space or closed office space.
IN
Note: It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b
operation is required.
Security
IM
The current Bluetooth specification defines security at the link level. Application-level security is not specified. This
allows application developers to define security mechanisms tailored to their specific need. Link-level security occurs
between devices, not users, while application-level security can be implemented on a per-user basis. The Bluetooth
specification defines security algorithms and procedures required to authenticate devices, and if needed, encrypt the
data flowing on the link between the devices. Device authentication is a mandatory feature of Bluetooth while link
encryption is optional.
PR
EL
Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key used to authenticate the devices and
create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being paired
generates the initialization key. The PIN is never sent over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack responds with no
key when a key is requested (it is up to user to respond to the key request event). Authentication of Bluetooth devices
is based-upon a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allows for a PIN or passkey used to create other 128-bit
keys used for security and encryption. The encryption key is derived from the link key used to authenticate the pairing
devices. Also worthy of note is the limited range and fast frequency hopping of the Bluetooth radios that makes longdistance eavesdropping difficult.
Recommendations are:
•
•
•
Perform pairing in a secure environment
Keep PIN codes private and do not store the PIN codes in the device
Implement application-level security.
Bluetooth Profiles
The TC55 supports the following Bluetooth services:
•
•
•
Generic Access Profile (GAP) - Use for device discovery and authentication.
Service Discovery Protocol (SDP) - Handles the search for known and specific services as well as general
services.
