Activate each mode pressing the Scan button.•Decode Mode: In this mode, the TC8000 attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of view. The imager remains in this mode as long as you hold the scan button, or until it decodes a bar code.•Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in the TC8000’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair center dot over the required bar code to decode only that bar code. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple bar codes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one bar code type (either 1D or 2D).•Image Capture Mode: Use this mode to capture an image within the TC8000’s field of view. This is useful for capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.Digital CameraThe device with an integrated camera based bar code scanning solution has the following features:•Omnidirectional reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, QR, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.Table 3-1 Charging/Scan LED IndicatorsLED Status IndicationOff Not scanning.Solid Green Successful decode.Review Copy
Data Capture 3 - 3•Cross-hair reticle for easy point-and-shoot operation.•Picklist mode to decode a particular bar code from many in the field of view.The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a bar code, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.Scanning ConsiderationsScanning consists of; aim, scan and decode. Scanning performance can be optimized by considering the range and the scanning angle:•RangeAny 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 further away to find the right working range for the bar codes being scanned. However, the situation is complicated by the availability of various integrated scanning modules. The best way to specify the appropriate working range per bar code density is through a chart called a decode zone for each scan module. A decode zone simply plots working range as a function of minimum element widths of bar code symbols.•AngleThe scan angle is important for optimizing decode performance. 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.Bar Code Capture with Laser ScannerTo read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The TC8000 contains the DataWedge application that allows the user to enable the scanner to decode bar code data and display the bar code content. See DataWedge on page 3-14 for information on enabling DataWedge.1. Launch a scanning application.2. Point the exit window at a bar code.NOTEContact the Zebra Support if chronic scanning difficulties develop. Decoding of properly printed bar codes should be quick and effortless.Review Copy

Touch Connect.2. Touch .Configuring for a Proxy ServerA 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.1. In the Wi-Fi list, touch a network.2. Touch Show advanced options checkbox.3.

4 - 10 TC8000 User GuideBluetoothBluetooth-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.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 HoppingAdaptive 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.When AFH is enabled, the Bluetooth radio “hops around” (instead of through) the 802.11b high-rate channels. AFH coexistence allows Enterprise devices 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.SecurityThe 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.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 long-distance eavesdropping difficult.Recommendations are:NOTEIt is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b operation is required.Review Copy
