This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Some equipment in hospitals and aircraft are not shielded from radio fre-
quency energy. Do not use the hand-held onboard aircraft, or in hospitals, without first obtaining permission. Do not use near pacemakers. Omnii may affect the operation of some medi-
cally implanted devices such as pacemakers, causing them to malfunction. Avoid placing your Omnii next to such devices. Keep a minimum distance of 20 cm between the medical device and Omnii to reduce the risk of interfer-
ence. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn off Omnii and contact your medical specialist for assistance. Note: To maintain compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear the Omnii on your body, use the Psion Teklogix approved carrying case. Use of non-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. Emissions Information For Canada This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Inter-
ference-Causing Equipment Regulations (ICES-003). When using the 802.11 radio option, to prevent radio interference, this device is intended to be oper-
ated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equip-
ment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing. Cet appareil numrique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du Rgle-
ment sur le matriel brouilleur du Canada (ICES-003).

Psion Teklogix Omnii Regulatory & Warranty Guide 7 Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformment la rglementation d'Industrie Canada, le prsent metteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou infrieur) approuv pour l'metteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de rduire les risques de brouillage radiolectrique l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonne quivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dpasse pas l'intensit ncessaire l'tablissement d'une communication satisfaisante. This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes :
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Users are advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices. De plus, les utilisateurs sont aviss que les utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont dsigns utilisateurs principaux (c.--d., quils ont la priorit) pour les bandes 5 250-5 350 MHz et 5 650-5 850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL. Warning for Australia The user needs to switch off the device when exposed to areas with poten-tially explosive atmospheres such as petrol stations, chemical storage depots and blasting operations.

Important: The steps below describe how to manually create a network. Keep in mind that this is intended only as an example and may vary from your own network requirements. If, for example, you are using a different type of secu-
rity for your network, the fields you complete may not match those described here. Enter the SSID (Service Set Identifier) for your network. 2.8.2.1 Authentication Mode Omnii supports several classes of authenticationOpen, WEP, WPA/WPA2 (Personal PSK, Enterprise, CCKM-WPA, CCKM-WPA2), and 802.1x with EAP. Tapping on the Auth. Mode menu displays your authentication options. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 21 Chapter 2: Basic Operation Wi-Fi Config: Configure Tab Note: Each Auth. Mode has a unique Configure Profile screen attached to it with fields appropriate to the authorization mode youve chosen. Open Authentication Open authentication does not provide security. When this option is chosen, Omnii will connect to wireless networks which do not use authentication or encryption. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) WEP provides static security to prevent others from accidentally accessing your network. If you choose this option, you can specify the type of WEP authenticationOpen or Shared, the WEP security key length64 bit or 128 bit and the key typeASCII or Hex. WEP Key fields are also provided where you can specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active WEP key on the access point. WPA & WPA2 Personal PSK (Pre-Shared Key) When PSK is selected, either WPA Personal PSK or WPA2 Personal PSKa shared key must be configured on both the access point and the hand-held computer. One of the follow-
ing can be chosen from the Encryption drop-down menu: TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES. 802.1X, WPA & WPA2 Enterprise, CCKM-WPA & CCKM-WPA2 These authentication modes use 802.1X with EAP authentication. When 802.1X is selected, Omnii uses WEP encryption with automatic (as opposed to static) keying. For the others, the user may choose TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES encryption. 22 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 2: Basic Operation Wi-Fi Config: Configure Tab 2.8.2.2 Encryption The Encryption menu allows you to choose the type of encryption that will be used to protect transmitted data. Choose an Encryption method valid for your network from the drop-down menu. Only the Encryption options that are compatible with the type of Auth. Mode youve chosen will be listed. In fact, in some cases, this menu will not be available at all. 2.8.2.3 EAP This menu allows you to choose the EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) type used for 802.1x authentication to an access point. The following EAP types are supported by Wi-Fi Config:
TLS: Provides strong security via the use of client certificates for user authentication. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 23 Chapter 2: Basic Operation Wi-Fi Config: Configure Tab PEAPv0-MSCHAPv2: Provides secure user authentication by using a TLS tunnel to encrypt EAP traffic. MSCHAPv2 is used as the inner authentication method. This is appropriate for use against Windows Active Directory and domains. PEAPv1-GTC: PEAP authentication using GTC as the inner method which utilizes one time passwords (OTPs) for authentication against OTP data bases such as SecureID. LEAP: Is an authentication method for use with Cisco WLAN access points. LEAP does not require the use of server or client certificates. LEAP supports Windows Active Directory and domains but requires the use of strong passwords to avoid vulnerability to off-line dictionary attacks. FAST-MSCHAPv2: Is a successor to LEAP and does not require strong passwords to protect against off-line dictionary attacks. Like LEAP, EAP-FAST does not require the use of server or client certificates and supports Windows Active Directory and domains. Complete the fields in the Configure Profile screen. If youre uncertain about some of the options, your system administrator will be able to provide the correct information for your wireless network. Once youve completed the necessary fields, tap on OK. 2.8.2.4 Verify Server Certificate When the Verify Server Certificate box is checked, Omnii will verify the certificate provided by the authentication server during the authentication process. This requires that an appro-
priate certificate be manually installed on Omnii for the verification. 2.8.2.5 Enable OPMK When used with compatible wireless infrastructure, Opportunistic Key Caching (OPMK) reduces the number of full authentications required when roaming. Only available with WPA2-Enterprise (EAP) authentication mode. 24 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 2: Basic Operation Wi-Fi Config: Configure Tab 2.8.2.6 Connecting the Wireless Network Your configured network is listed in the Configure tab.

Battery Details Omnii Hand-Held Computers operate by lithium-ion battery packs, Model ST3000. Please see the following sections for detailed battery information:
Calibration and power settings: Power Properties on page 115. Chargers and docking stations: Peripheral Devices & Accessories on page 179. Contact pinout: page A-4 of Appendix A: Port Pinouts. Specifications: Lithium-ion Smart Battery 5000 mAh (ST3000) on page 214. 3.1.1 Battery Safety 3.1.2 Important: Before attempting to install, use, or charge the battery pack, it is critical that you review and follow the important safety guidelines in the quick ref-
erence guide entitled the Omnii Hand-Held Computer Regulatory &
Warranty Guide, PN 8000191. Battery Swap Time Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been al-
tered, battery swap time is a minimum of 5 minutesyou will not lose data if the battery is replaced within this time frame. To protect data, the safest place to store data is on a microSD memory card or externally to the device on a USB memory stick or on a PC. You can also save data in the Flash Disk partition of the file system. Refer to Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup on page 117 for details about reserving battery power for data backup purposes. The Suspend Threshold adjustment in the Power Properties tab allows you to determine the battery capacity at which Omnii will be shut down. If left at the default value, Maximum Op-
erating Time, the unit will run until the battery is completely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose Maximum Backup Time, Omnii shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 41 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Charging the Battery Important: If your Omnii fails to power up, consider the following troubleshooting options:
The battery may be overheated (>60C), a non-Psion Teklogix battery may be installed, or the battery may have fallen below the configured Suspend Threshold. See Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup on page 117 for details. To switch on the hand-held, you will need to replace the overheated battery. However, if you supply AC power to Omnii with a battery that falls below the configured Suspend Threshold, the unit will switch on. 3.1.3 Charging the Battery Batteries shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% of capacity. Lithium-
ion battery packs must be fully charged before use. These batteries can be charged with a variety of chargers and docking stations. For detailed information on these accessories, please see Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories. Normally it takes 3 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The Omnii intelligent charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at maximum capacity. Table 3.1 Omnii Internal Battery Charging Times

Important: To avoid damaging the battery, chargers will not begin the charge process until the battery temperature is between 0C to 45C (32F to 113F). 3.2 The Keyboard Omnii offers a wide variety of Alpha and Numeric keyboard layouts. See Keyboard and Keypad Kits on page 181 for a list of available configurations. Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop computer. Where a key or key function is not consis-
tent with the PC keyboard, those differences are described in the following sections. 42 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Regular Keys Press the [SHIFT] key twice to lock the shift state on (the up arrow in the taskbar will be un-
derlined). Press [SHIFT] again to turn the shift state off. To access CAPS LOCK mode, press [FN] + [SHIFT]. In this state, if you press a numeric key, the number is displayed rather than the normal shifted function of that key. Press [FN] +
[SHIFT] again to turn the CAPS LOCK mode off. The Arrow Keys The [Arrow] keys are located near the top of the keyboard, and are represented on the key-
board as triangles pointing in different directions. The [Arrow] keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow: up, down, left and right. The left arrow key should not be confused with the [BACKSPACE] key which is depicted as a left arrow. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the next character you type will appear. The [BACKSPACE/DEL] Key The [BACKSPACE] key (represented on the keyboard as an arrow pointing left) moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the previous key stroke. The [DEL] key ([FN] +[BACKSPACE]) erases the character at the current cursor position. The [CTRL] and [ALT] Key The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are application dependent. Pressing either key twice locks it 'on' (it appears underlined on the Taskbar). Pressing the key once again unlocks it. The [TAB] Key Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward. The [ESC] Key Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog box, or activity. The [SPACE] Key The [SPACE] key is represented on the keyboard by a long, low horizontal line contained by a small vertical line on each side. Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox. 44 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 3.2.2 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Modifier Keys The [SCAN] Key Omnii is equipped with a single [SCAN] key on the keyboard and an extra [SCAN] button located on the left side of the unit. [SCAN] keys activate the scanner beam. For units that do not have internal scanners, these keys can be remapped to serve other functions. Modifier Keys The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN] and [SYM] keys are modifier keys that change the function of the next key pressed. The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
[SHIFT] and [FN]
The [SHIFT] and [FN] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system func-
tions. The functions related to these modifier keys are colour-coded in white and blue print respectively above the keyboard keys, dependant on your keyboard format.
[SYM]
Note: When using the Mobile Devices SDK Developers' Guide (P/N 8100016), note that the [SYM] key is interchangeable with the [ORANGE] key. The Symbol [SYM] modifier key is represented on the keyboard by the characters SYM and provides access to commonly used symbolic characters. Pressing the key brings up the Symbol soft input panel (SIP) onscreen keyboard, with symbols mapped to each key. If you wish to adjust the settings for the pop-up screen (e.g. time of delay before screen appears, etc.), modify the file softinputpanel.xml, located in the Windows folder. Note: Modifier keys are remapped in the Control Panel, and the Symbol SIP will automat-
ically show and use the new mappings after the next reboot. The onscreen keyboard corresponds to the specific keyboard on your Omniieither numeric or alphanumeric. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 45 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Function Keys and Macro Keys 3.2.3 Function Keys and Macro Keys In addition to the standard keyboard functions (see The Keyboard on page 42), Omnii supports function keys and macro keys. All function keys and macro keys can be custom defined for each application. The TekTerm application utilizes these keys (for detailed information, see the TekTerm Software User Manual, P/N 8000073). 3.2.3.1 Function Keys Function keys perform special, custom-defined functions within an application. These keys are accessed by pressing one of the dedicated function keys on the keyboard, or through the appropriate [SHIFT] or [FN] key sequence, depending on the keyboard variant being used. Alphanumeric Keyboard Function Keys The Alphanumeric keyboards are equipped with up to thirty function keys, including those function keys that are colour-coded in blue print above the alpha keys or function keys (de-
pending on your keyboard). To access the blue function keys, press the [FN] key followed by the appropriate alpha or function key. Function keys [F1] through [F24] can be used with the Windows Embedded CE operating system or another application. The additional function keys, [F25] through [F30] along with the macros, are not used as part of the Windows Embedded CE operating system. Numeric Keyboard Function Keys The Numeric keyboards are equipped with up to 24 function keys, including those function keys that are colour-coded in white print above the function keys. Function keys F25 through F30 can only be accessed by remapping another key to that function. To access the white function keys, press the [SHIFT] key followed by the appropriate function key. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 47 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Numeric KeyboardsAccessing Alpha Keys 3.2.3.2 Macro Keys Important: Refer to Keyboard Macro Keys on page 104 for details about creating macros. Several of the Omnii keyboards are equipped with a series of macro keys that can be pro-
grammed to replace frequently used keystrokes, along with the function of executable keys like the [ENTER/Power] key, the [BACKSPACE] key, any function key and arrow key, etc. 59-Key Alphanumeric Keyboard Macro Keys These keyboards have six macro keys: [M1] to [M6], located on the S to X keys (second-last row of keys). To access a macro key, press the [FN] key followed by the macro key. 36-Key Numeric Keyboard Macro Keys These keyboards are equipped with five macro keys: [M1] to [M5]. These keys are colour coded in blue print above function keys [F1] to [F5]. To access a macro key, press the [FN] key followed by the macro key. Numeric KeyboardsAccessing Alpha Keys On the Numeric Omnii keyboards, all alphabetic characters are printed on the unit plastic in blue typeface above the keys. Alpha characters are accessed by pressing the [FN] modifier key, then pressing another key on the keyboard. The Alpha Modified Numeric 789 keyboard has each blue alphabetic character assigned as a single [FN]-shifted character on individual keys. An indicator in the left corner of the taskbar displays the currently selected character. The Numeric 123 keyboards have telephone-style alphabetic keys, with the blue alphabetic characters located in groups of 3 or 4 above each of the numeric keys. To access characters on these keyboards, a few extra steps are needed, as described below. Choosing a Single Alpha Character Note: The following examples assume that the [FN] key is enabled as Lock mode in the One Shot screen (accessible through the Control Panel Keyboard icon). In Lock mode, pressing the [FN] key once locks it on. Refer to Keyboard One Shot Modes on page 102 for details. 3.2.4 48 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii The Keypad Backlight The examples below illustrate how to access A, B and C, all of which are printed in blue characters above the numeric key [2]. The letters you choose appear in the softkey bar as you press the numeric key, providing a visual indicator of which letter will be displayed on the screen. To choose the letter a:
Press the [FN] key, and press the numeric key [2]. Press the [FN] key again to unlock or turn it off. To choose the letter b:

The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive coating. The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:
mustard ketchup sodium hydroxide concentrated caustic solutions benzyl alcohol concentrated acids 57 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your Omnii Cleaning Omnii If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable screen pro-
tector (ST6112). These covers reduce the clarity of the display slightly but will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they become scratched and abraded, they are easily removed and replaced. 3.8.2 Cleaning Omnii Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the unit clean. To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only your finger or the stylus
(pen) supplied with your Omnii. Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. Omnii has a plastic case that is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The plastic is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions. To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol. 58 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 WINDOWS EMBEDDED CE 6.0 4 4.1 Navigating in Windows Embedded CE and Applications . 61 4.1.1 Navigating Using a Touchscreen. 61 4.1.2 Navigating Using the Keyboard . 61 4.2 Working with Files, Folders, and Programs . 62 4.3 Using a Dialog Box. 63 4.4 The Windows Classic Shell Startup Desktop . 65 4.4.1 The Desktop Icons . 65 4.4.2 The Taskbar. 67 4.4.2.1 Using the Taskbar . 67 4.4.2.2 Customizing the Taskbar . 68 4.4.3 The Start Menu . 68 4.4.3.1 The Desktop. 70 4.4.3.2 Programs . 70 4.4.3.3 Shortcuts. 72 4.4.3.4 Settings . 74 4.4.3.5 Run . 75 4.4.3.6 Shutdown . 75 4.5 The PsionVU Desktop Shell . 76 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 59 Draft 1 Draft 1 Chapter 4: Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Navigating in Windows Embedded CE and Applications 4.1 Navigating in Windows Embedded CE and Applications Graphic user interfaces like Windows Embedded CE for portable devices and desktop Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize point and click navigation. An equivalent keyboard short-
cut is also available for every point and click action. Windows Embedded CE supports the same point and click user interface and keyboard shortcuts as desktop Windows with one differencethe point and click action is accom-
plished using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed using any combination of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping. In those applications that support it, you can also flick and pan your finger to scroll through screens. 4.1.1 Navigating Using a Touchscreen Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the touchscreen may need recalibration. Refer to Calibrating the Touchscreen on page 50. Omnii comes equipped with a stylusa pointing tool that looks like a pen. The stylus is used to select objects on the touchscreen. You can also use gestures with your fingers. You can use two gestures: pan and flick. Use left or right flicks to quickly move between tabs of a multi-tab control panel, or to scroll long lists of options. Use panning by touching and dragging a page that has scrollbars.

The Display Properties dialog box in the Control Panel allows you to specify the intensity of the backlight along with how long the backlight remains on when the unit is not in use (no key press, scanner trigger, etc.). Note: Keep in mind that this option may be restricted to supervisory use only. In the Display Properties dialog box, open the Backlight tab. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 97 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Input Panel Note: Backlight changes take effect immediately. You do not need to reset the unit. To maximize battery run time, keep the display backlight brightness and active durations as low as possible. Intensity This parameter is used to adjust the light intensity of the Omnii backlight. Sliding the bar to the left lowers the light intensity, and sliding it to the right raises the intensity. Bright For The value chosen from this drop-down menu determines the duration of time that the back-
light stays on at the configured intensity after the last user action (keypress, scan trigger). Dim For The value chosen from this drop-down menu determines the duration of time that the back-
light stays on at half the configured intensity (dimmed backlight) after expiration of the Bright For delay and as long as no user action takes place (such as a keypress or scan trig-
ger). At the expiration of the Dim For duration, the display backlight shuts off. External Power Checkbox When you select the checkbox next to When using external power keep the backlight always ON, the backlight remains ON at the configured intensity when Omnii is operating with ex-
ternal power (not battery power). If Omnii is drawing power from its battery, this option is ignored and the other parameters defined in Display Properties dialog box take effect. 5.5.4 Input Panel Omnii is equipped with a Soft Input Panel (SIP). Shown below is the standard Microsoft SIP, accessed from the Control Panel. 98 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Input Panel Soft Keyboard Input Panel Button Icon Tapping on the Input Panel button displays a soft input panel (soft keyboard) that can be customized using the Input Panel dialog box.

[SYM] modifier keys. This dialog box also allows you to define macro keys and Unicode characters. 100 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 In the Control Panel, choose the Keyboard icon. Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties 5.5.5.1 Key Repeat Note: These settings apply when a key is held down continuously. In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the Repeat tab. Repeat Delay The value assigned for this parameter determines the delay in milliseconds between repeat characters. Sliding the Repeat Delay bar to the left increases the delay between key repeats, and sliding the bar to the right shortens the repeat delay time. Repeat Rate The value assigned for the Repeat Rate parameter determines how quickly the key you press repeats and is measured in characters per second (cps). Sliding the bar to the left slows the repeat rate, and sliding the bar to the right increases the repeat rate. Note: Use the field at the bottom of this dialog box to test the repeat delay and rate set-
tings youve chosen. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 101 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties 5.5.5.2 Keyboard Backlight In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the Backlight tab. Intensity This parameter is used to adjust the light intensity of the Omnii keyboard backlight. Sliding the bar to the left darkens the keyboard backlight intensity, and sliding it to the right lightens the intensity. Note: The keypad backlight maximum brightness will decrease over time as it ages. Use mid-range intensity settings when possible to extend the backlight lifespan. When the backlight starts to dim, use this parameter to make it brighter. ON For The value chosen from this drop-down menu determines the duration of time that the key-
board backlight stays on after the last user action (keypress or scan trigger). Note: Tapping in the checkbox next to When using external power, keep the backlight always ON forces the keypad backlight to remain on when the unit is operating with external power. 5.5.5.3 Keyboard One Shot Modes In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the One Shots tab. 102 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties The options in this tab allow you to determine how modifier keys on your Omnii behave. For each modifier key[ALT], [SHIFT], [CTRL], [FN], and [SYM]you have the follow-
ing options in the drop-down menu: Lock, OneShot, and OneShot/Lock. Note: Keep in mind that checking the taskbar lets you know whether or not these keys are locked on. For example, if the [FN] key is locked on, the taskbar at the bottom of the screen displays it underlined. If this key is displayed without the underline in the taskbar, youll know that the key is not locked. It will become inactive following a key press. Important: Once youve assigned a One Shot mode to a modifier key, you need to tap on the OK button at the top of the tab to activate your selection. Lock If you choose Lock from the drop-down menu, pressing a modifier key once locks it on until you press the modifier key a second time to unlock or turn it off. OneShot If you choose OneShot, the modifier key remains active only until the next key is pressed. OneShot/Lock OneShot/Lock allows you to combine these functions. When you choose this option and you press the modifier key once, it remains active only until the next key is pressed. If you press the modifier key twice, it is locked on, remaining active until the modifier key is pressed a third time to turn it off. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 103 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties 5.5.5.4 Keyboard Macro Keys In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the Macros tab. A macro has 200 programmable characters (or positions). The macro keys can be pro-
grammed to replace frequently used keystrokes, along with the function of executable keys including [ENTER], [BACKSPACE] and [DEL] ([FN]-[BACKSPACE]), function keys and arrow keys. Recording and Saving a Macro You can program up to 6 macro keys, depending on your keyboard layout. You can also in-
crease the number of virtual macro keys up to 15 using Scancode Remapping (for details, see Scancode Remapping on page 107). menu highlight a macro key number, for example macro 1, to assign a In the Macro macro to macro key [M1].

Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 105 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties 5.5.5.5 Unicode Mapping In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the Unicode Mapping tab. The Unicode Mapping tab is used to map combinations of virtual key values and [CTRL]
and [SHIFT] states to Unicode values. This tab shows the configured Unicode character along with the Unicode value. For example, the sample screen above shows a (U+0061) indicating that the character a is represented by the Unicode value 0061, and so on. Keep in mind that Unicode configurations are represented as hexadecimal rather than decimal values. All user-defined Unicode mappings are listed in the Unicode Mapping tab in order of virtual key value, and then by order of the shift state. If a Unicode mapping is not listed, the Unicode mapping is mapped to the default Unicode value. Adding and Changing Unicode Values Important: Changes to Unicode mappings are not saved until you exit the Keyboard Properties dialog box. Choose the Add/Change button. 106 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties Highlight a value in the Unicode mapping list. In the sample screen above, a value will be assigned to virtual key 0 (VK 0). Position the cursor in the Unicode Mapping field, and type a Unicode value for the highlighted key. Note: To add a shifted state, [SHIFT] and/or [CTRL], press [TAB] to position the cursor in the checkbox next to SHIFT Pressed and/or CTRL Pressed. Press [SPACE] to select the shift state you want to assign. Removing Unicode Values In the Unicode Mapping tab, highlight the item you want to delete, and choose the Remove button. 5.5.5.6 Scancode Remapping A scancode is a number that is associated with a physical key on a keyboard. Every key has a unique scancode that is mapped to a virtual key, a function or a macro. Scancode Remap-
ping allows you to change the functionality of any key on the keyboard. A key can be remapped to send a virtual key (e.g. VK_F represents the F key; VK_RETURN represents the [ENTER/Power] key, etc.), perform a function (e.g. turn the scanner on, change volume, etc.) or run a macro. There are three different tables of scancode mappings: the Normal table, the FN table and the SYM table. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 107 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties Note: When using the Mobile Devices SDK Developers' Guide (P/N 8100016), note that the [ORANGE] key is interchangeable with the [SYM] key. Similarly, in the context of the scancode mapping tables, Orange is interchangeable with SYM. The Normal table defines unmodified key presses; the FN table defines key presses that occur when the [FN] modifier is on; the SYM table defines key presses that occur when the
[SYM] modifier is on. The default mappings of these scancodes can be overwritten for each of these three tables using the Scancode Remapping tab accessed from the Keyboard Prop-
erties dialog box. The first column in the Scancode Remapping tab displays the scancodes in hexadecimal. If the scancode is remapped to a virtual key, that virtual key is displayed in the next column la-
belled V-Key. A virtual key that is Shifted or Unshifted is displayed in the third column labelled Function. If the scancode is remapped to a function or a macro, the first and second columns remain blank while the third column contains the function name or macro key number
(e.g., Macro 2). Adding a Remap To add a new remapping:
Choose the Add button at the bottom of the dialog box. The Remap Scancode dialog box is displayed. 108 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Keyboard Properties Type the scan code in hexadecimal in the field labelled Scancode. Note: The Label field displays the default function of the scancode you are remapping. Virtual Key, Function and Macro The radio buttons at the bottom of the dialog box allow you to define to what the scan code will be remapped: Virtual Key, Function or Macro. When Virtual Key is selected, you can choose to force [SHIFT] to be on or off when the virtual key is sent. If No Force is selected, the shift state is dependent on whether the shift state is on or off at the time the virtual key is sent. When Function is selected, a list of valid functions appears in the dialog box. When Macro is selected, the macro keys available on your unit are listed in the dialog box. Choose Virtual Key, Function or Macro. Choose a function from the Function list in the dialog box, and tap on OK. Editing a Scancode Remap To edit a scancode:
In the Scancode Remapping tab, tap on the remap you want to edit. Tap on the Edit button, and make the appropriate changes. Tap on OK to save your changes.

A locked keyboard icon is displayed in the softkey bar when the keyboard is locked. 110 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Manage Triggers Locked Keyboard Icon Type the key sequence to unlock the keyboard. 5.5.6 Manage Triggers Allows users to configure how bar code scanners and other devices such as RFID readers are triggered. You can configure the trigger ID for each trigger button for both single- and double-click, and the double-click time. In the Control Panel, choose the Manage Triggers icon. In the Manage Triggers screen youll see a list of trigger mappings. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 111 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Manage Triggers 5.5.6.1 Trigger Mappings A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a driver or application, the module(s)sometimes referred to as trigger consumer(s)of the trigger source. Along with keyboard keys, the external trigger (scan button) is software-based. When the specified key is pressed, the owner (for example, a decoded scanner) is sent a message. Important: It is not possible to have two or more identical mappingsfor example [F1]
cannot be mapped to the Non-Decoded Scanner twiceeven if the trigger type is different. A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer generate key data, or perform its normal function. For example, if the space button is used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send space characters to applications. Double-Click When a key is pressed and released, then pressed again within the configured time (between 0 to 1000 milliseconds), a double-click occurs. See also Trigger-Press Type on page 114. Show All Modules By default, the trigger mapping list only shows active mappings. Mappings for drivers or applications that are not currently active are not normally displayed. By checking this checkbox, all mappings, both active and inactive, are displayed. 112 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Manage Triggers Add Tapping this button brings up the Add Mapping dialog (see page 113), so that you can add new trigger mappings. Edit Tapping this button brings up the Edit Mapping dialog (see page 113), so that you can edit existing trigger mappings. Remove Tapping this button removes an existing mapping. OK The OK button in the top right of the Manage Triggers screen saves all changes made. If the cancel button X is tapped instead, or the [ESC] key is pressed, all changes made will be discarded. 5.5.6.2 Add and Edit Trigger Mapping These dialogs allow you to add and edit trigger mappings. Trigger Key This drop-down list allows you to specify the source of the trigger events, such as the Soft Scan, Left Scan, etc., for the trigger module selected. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 113 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Manage Triggers Note: It is possible to map the same source to different modules (trigger consumers)for example, to both the Imager and Non-Decoded Scanner. If so, both devices/opera-
tions will occur simultaneously. This is not recommended in most cases, especially with devices such as Imagers or RFID Readers. It is also possible to map different sources to the same module (trigger con-
sumer)for example, two different trigger keys can be mapped to the RFID File System. Add Key Only existing trigger sources are shown in the Source combo-box. To add a new source to this list, tap on the Add Key button. A dialog will pop up and allow you to select the key-
board key to use as a trigger source. Trigger-Press Type You can enable either an Up/Down or Double Click response to a trigger press. Normally, when a trigger (keyboard key, etc.) is pressed and released, a trigger down event is sent to the ownerthat is, the application receiving the trigger press informationfollowed by a trigger up. If Double Click is chosen in this menu, when the trigger is pressed, released, and then pressed again, a double-click event will have occurred. If a mapping with the type Up/Down has also been configured for the same source, it will only receive the first set of trigger events. Module Trigger This identifies the driver or application receiving the trigger presses. 114 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Show All Modules By default, inactive owners are not shown. By checking this checkbox, all owners, both active and inactive, are displayed. Chapter 5: Configuration Microphone 5.5.7 Microphone In the Control Panel, choose the Microphone icon. Use this dialog box to adjust the gain for the specific microphones associated with your hand-held. Tap on the drop-down menu, and choose the microphone for which you want to adjust the gain. Slide the microphone tab to the left to decrease the gain and to the right to increase the gain. Tapping on the Default button sets the current microphone youve chosen to the default gain. Tapping on Default All sets all microphones listed to their default gain. 5.5.8 Power Properties This icon displays a Power Properties dialog box that indicates the units battery capacity and allows you to manage battery use. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 115 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties In the Control Panel
, choose the Power icon. 5.5.8.1 Battery Capacity In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Battery tab to view battery details. 5.5.8.2 Power Saving Suspend In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Suspend tab. 116 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties Power Source This drop-down menu allows you to specify whether the unit is using AC Power or Battery Power. Suspend Timeout Important: Psion Teklogix recommends setting the Suspend value to 3 minutes. To further reduce power consumption, carefully consider the duration of time that the display backlight is on (see Backlight on page 97). When Omnii is idlenot receiving any user input (a key touch, a scan, and so on) or system activity (serial data, an activity initiated by an application, and so on)the hand-held uses the value assigned in the Suspend Timeout field to determine when the unit will go to sleep
(appear to be off). When the time in the Suspend Timeout field elapses without any activity, the unit enters suspend state. In suspend state, the Omnii CPU enters a sleep state, and wireless communi-
cation is shut off. The state of the device (RAM contents) is preserved. Pressing [ENTER]
wakes the system from suspend state. 5.5.8.3 Suspend Threshold and Estimated Battery Backup The Suspend Threshold adjustment tells the system when to shut down when the battery drains. If you choose Maximum Operating Time, the unit will run until the battery is com-
pletely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose Maximum Backup Time, the hand-held shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 117 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties Important: Selecting Maximum backup time will reserve approximately 20% of the battery capacity for memory backup. Once the battery is drained, the system RAM memory is lost and the unit must cold boot. In most real-time transaction environments this is not a problem (it only takes a few seconds to cold boot). Batch transaction environments, where data is not saved to a non-volatile memory (such as an SD FLASH card), may need to pay particular attention to this parameter. Psion Teklogix does not recommend the storage of any valuable data in system RAM. The Omnii Windows Embedded CE 6.0 environment does not store any critical data in RAM (such as the registry or file system). If your application does not save data to RAM, Psion Teklogix recommends keeping the Suspend Threshold setting as low as possible to maximize battery run time. The Estimated Battery Backup is the amount of battery power that has been reserved or set aside to protect data until a charged battery can be installed in the hand-held. When the battery capacity is depleted up to the Estimated Battery Backup reserve specified in the Suspend Threshold menu, Omnii shuts off automatically and uses the reserve power to pre-
serve the data stored on the computer. Once Omnii shuts down, it cannot be switched on until a fresh battery is installed, or the unit is inserted in a docking station or cradle. Slide the Suspend Threshold button to the right to increase the battery capacity reserved for backup purposes. Data will be preserved to a maximum of 124 hours. Slide the Suspend Threshold button to the left to decrease the power reserved for backup purposes; this increases the Omnii operating timethe amount of time the unit will operate before shutting downbut reduces the power reserved for backup purposes to a minimum of 24 hours. Internal super-capacitors will protect the data stored in the computer while the battery is swapped for a fully charged one. Important: Once the battery is removed, the super-capacitors will preserve the data stored on Omnii for approximately 5 minutes. It is critical that you install a charged battery before this time elapses. 118 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 5.5.8.4 Advanced In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Advanced tab. Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties Allow Suspend With This menu allows you to specify whether or not your unit will enter Suspend Mode while it is operating with an active PPP connection, network interface or active TCP/IP connection. Low Power Warnings The sliding scale at the bottom of this menu allows you to specify the remaining battery ca-
pacity at which a warning message is displayed on the Omnii screen, from 0% to 20%. 5.5.8.5 Built-in Devices In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Built-in Devices tab. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 119 Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties WWAN Power Mode This menu allows you to enable power to your WWAN radio, and whether or not the radio will turn off when Omnii enters Suspend Mode. 5.5.8.6 Battery Health The Battery Health service provides an estimate of battery health based on a number of dif-
ferent measurements, beyond just capacity. Important: Battery Health is an estimate and should not be depended on to provide a 100% account of battery condition. In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Battery Health tab. Current Battery Health The Current Battery Health default values are shown here as ***** (Excellent), *** (Used), and * (Battery should be replaced). If you tap on the battery icon in the taskbar, a pop-up screen will show the state of the battery. The image below shows the default Excellent status screen. 120 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Chapter 5: Configuration Power Properties Enable Battery Health Service This option allows you to enable the service. To access the menus after enabling the service, you will need to either wait until a resume from Suspend or restart Omnii. Wakeup Device on Battery Insert When this option is enabled, whenever the battery is replaced Omnii is powered up from Suspend and the current health of the battery is displayed. Add Health Colour to the Taskbar Battery Tray Icon Enabling this option changes the background colour for the battery icon in the Taskbar, based on battery condition: Green (excellent), Yellow (used), and Red (battery should be replaced). Show Popup UI on Device-Resume You can decide when the battery status pop-up user interface (UI) will appear, for how many seconds, and whether the battery cycle count is displayed (off by default). Edit You can customize the ratings text with the Edit option. By enclosing your text within the html tag used for Bold <b> (or removing the tag to unbold the text), you can change the text that will appear in the pop-up battery status screen. For example, the default text Excellent can be changed to: Battery is excellent, and will last one day shift....

This dialog box offers a number of additional options such as enabling Encryption and se-
lecting four different Modes: Serial, ActiveSync, Scanner, and Printer Port. Serial is used for simple serial port communication. ActiveSync is for ActiveSync-over-Bluetooth. Scanner is used to create a connection to a bar code scanner. A serial connection is created, then the Scanner Services is notified of the connection so that the incoming bar code scan will be forwarded to Scanner Services directly. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 139 Chapter 5: Configuration Servers Tab Printer Port must be chosen here if you want to communicate with a paired Bluetooth printer. For further details, see Mode Tab on page 141. Once youve completed the information, tap on Next and then in the Services screen, click on Done. 5.6.3 Servers Tab When a remote Bluetooth device initiates a Bluetooth connection to Omnii, the remote device is considered the Bluetooth master and the hand-held, the Bluetooth slave. In order for the remote device to connect to the hand-held, Omnii must offer a service in the form of a server. The Servers tab allows these services to be enabled and configured. There are three server services available: Serial, Scanner and OBEX OPP. Serial server enables the Serial Port Profile server; a Serial Port can be selected from the drop-down menu. You can assign either a BSP or a COM prefix from the drop-down menu. BSP (Bluetooth Serial Port) was created by Microsoft to allow Bluetooth to have its own serial prefix in order to free up virtual COM prefixes as these are limited and are widely used. Note: Even after a Serial Port Profile server is created, an application must open the cre-
ated port before a remote device can connect. Scanner server enables a Serial Port Profile server and then relays it to the Scanner Service
(SCS). This is used for Bluetooth bar code scanners that operate in client mode. SCS opens the server port and handles the scanner input. 140 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual OBEX OPP server enables the Object Push Profile server. A warm reset must be performed on Omnii after a change is made to this option. The OPP Server allows other Bluetooth devices to send files to this device. Tap on the checkbox to activate the server.

On, and off in suspend the GPS module is powered on, but if Omnii is in suspend mode, the GPS module is turned off. 5.9.2 Profiles Tapping on the GPS Profile Selection drop-down menu allows you to choose an appropriate profile: Default, Automotive or Pedestrian. Default profile is a good general profile suitable for most uses. Automotive profile is designed for in-vehicle use, providing quick location updates as the vehicle moves. When the GPS module is set to this profile and the vehicle enters an area such as a tunnel where satellite coverage is interrupted, it will attempt to predict the vehicle position. Pedestrian profile is designed for those using the GPS module while walking. It takes into account the slower pace of the pedestrian when mapping the location of the user. When the GPS module is set to this profile and the operator moves into an area where satellite coverage is interrupted, the GPS module will not attempt to predict the opera-
tors movement. 5.9.3 Programs Tap on the GPS Program Port drop-down menu to choose the communication (COM) port that the GPS software will use to communicate with the GPS receiver. 150 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 5: Configuration AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) 5.9.4 AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) To determine your location, a GPS module receives data from three or more GPS satellites in fixed orbit around the Earth. The GPS module triangulates your location based on the time it takes for signals to get to and from the satellites. This works well in fairly clear areas, outdoors for example. However, if youre attempting to triangulate your location in city centres where signals bounce off tall concrete buildings or from within a building, the GPS module will have greater difficulty calculating a fix. AGPS reduces Time To First Fix (TTFF) and increases the likelihood of finding and keeping a fix in poor coverage areas such as indoor sites. AGPS downloads satellite ephemeris (or-
bital) data to Omnii periodically through Wi-Fi or WWAN. The downloaded data is used by the GPS module to speed the process of getting a fix. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 151 Chapter 5: Configuration AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) Update Click on the Update button to download Extended Ephemeris (EE) files from a secure host on the Internet using any interface that has an Internet connection. These files contain several days worth of ephemeris (orbital) data that can be used if the satellites broadcast ephemeris is not available. The Status field above the Update button displays the progress of the download, and once successfully downloaded, the Status field will read Idle. Settings Click on the Settings button to define the AGPS server connection settings. The AGPS server connection settings drop-down menu allows you to choose from two set-
tings: Use default settings and Use custom settings. The Use default settings option is generally acceptable for most applications. Note that aside from the Update field in which you can choose how long the fix is stored in your Omnii, the field values cannot be edited. The Use custom settings option is generally used to configure devices that will have access only to an intranet rather than the Internet and should only be altered with the assistance of qualified Psion Teklogix personnel. They will be able to help you configure your Psion Tek-
logix devices and web server to retrieve the ephemeris data. 152 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 5.9.5 Info Chapter 5: Configuration Info This tab provides general information about the GPS module such as the firmware version, the date on which files were last updated, and so on.

To reset a single parameter to its default setting:
Press and hold on the parameter you want to reset. 160 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 5: Configuration Options Tab Choose Default parameter to reset the parameter to the default setting. 5.12.2 Options Tab This tab allows you to tailor the double-click parameters, display, and data handling options associated with your scanner. 5.12.2.1 Double Click Parameters Click Time (msec) This parameter controls the maximum gap time (in milliseconds) for a double-click. If the time between the first and second clicks of the scanner trigger is within this time, it is con-
sidered a double-click. The allowable range is 0 to 1000. A value of zero disables this feature. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 161 Chapter 5: Configuration Options Tab A double-click produces different results depending on whether or not a value is assigned in the Click Data parameter. When a value is not assigned for the Click Data, double-click-
ing the scanner trigger overrides the target dot delay set in the Dot Time parameter and initiates a normal scan sweep. If a value is assigned for the Click Data parameter, double-
clicking the scanner trigger inserts the Click Data value rather than initiating a scan. Click Data This parameter determines which character is sent to the application installed in your Omnii following a double-click. A dialog box appears, asking that you press the key you want to insert. The ASCII/Unicode key value of the keypress is displayed. Pressing the [ESC] key in this dialog box resets the data to zero. 5.12.2.2 Display Parameters Scan Result When this parameter is enabled, the type of bar code and the result of the scan appear on the screen. Note that this information is only displayed after a successful decode and is visible only while the scanner trigger is pressed. When the trigger is released, this information is cleared from the screen. Scan Indicator When this parameter is enabled, the laser warning logo appears on the display whenever the scanner is activated. Scan Result Time (sec) The value assigned to the Scan Result Time parameter determines how long the scan results of a successful scan are displayed on the screen. Time is measured in seconds, and a value of 0 (zero) disables the parameter. When you choose this option, a dialog box appears where you can enter a value. Note: To remove the scan result from the screen before the Result Time has expired, point the scanner away from the bar code and press the trigger. Good Scan Beep and Bad Scan Beep These parameters determine whether or not Omnii emits an audible scanner beep when a good (successful) scan or a bad (unsuccessful) scan is performed. Set these parameters to either on to enable the beeper or off to disable it. 162 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 5: Configuration Options Tab Multiple Beep Tones You can set the audible scanner beep to emit a series of three beeps instead of one. Set this parameter to on to enable the multiple beep tones. Good Scan Vibrates and Bad Scan Vibrates These parameters determine whether or not Omnii creates a vibration when a good (success-
ful) scan or a bad (unsuccessful) scan is performed. Set these parameters to on to enable the vibration. You can set the Number and Duration of vibrations, as well as the Pause between vibrations. The screen above shows the default settings. Soft Scan Timeout This parameter is used by the SDK Scan function (soft-scan: starting a scan session via the SDK function, instead of a physical user trigger press). The value assigned to this parameter determines the soft-scan timeout from 1 to 10 sec (default is 3 sec). Scan Log File If this parameter is enabled, the input bar code and the modified/translated output bar code are logged in the file \Flash Disk\ScanLog.txt. Keep in mind that if Scan Log File is enabled, there is a slight performance reduction when performing multiple scans since the log file is written to persistent storage. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 163 Chapter 5: Configuration Translations Tab 5.12.2.3 Data Handling Codepage If you are encountering a scan failure because there is an unrecognized language character in the bar code, the Codepage option may correct the problem by allowing the ISO-8859-1 Latin 1 codepage to be used. The default value is Default Local ASCII. Important: Do not change this parameter from the default setting unless you are certain that it will correct your scan problem. 5.12.3 Translations Tab The Translations menu allows you to define up to 10 cases, each consisting of up to 10 rules in sequential order. Only one case will be applied to a bar code and a case will only be applied if all rules specified in the case are successfulif a rule within a case fails, the entire case fails. In the Translation menu, tap on the Case # to create rules. 164 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 5: Configuration Translations Tab Tap on the No rule drop-down menu to display the rules. When you choose a rule, an associated screen is displayed in which you can define the rule. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 165 Chapter 5: Configuration Translations Tab 5.12.3.1 Case Rules The case rules are defined as follows:
No ruleignored. Search and replacereplaces all instances of the match string. (Note that this rule cannot fail.) Match at indexmatches the match string at a specified index. Match and replace at indexmatches the match string at a specified index and replaces/changes it. Replace at indexreplaces/changes unspecified data in a given range. Add barcode prefix/suffixadds a global prefix or suffix. Verify barcode sizeverifies the bar code size. This rule should generally be assigned first, before creating subsequent rules. Note: Keep in mind that the effects of previously applied rules must be taken into account when creating subsequent rules. For example, if the bar code size is important, it should be checked before any rules that might change the size are applied. Translation information about the status of each case/rule is displayed in the scan log file
(see Scan Log File on page 163) when enabled. This is useful if a case fails, and you are trying to determine why a rule is failing. 166 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 5.12.4 Ports Tab Figure 5.5 Console and Port Replicator Port Settings Chapter 5: Configuration Ports Tab While you cannot configure the scanner, you can configure communications with a serial decoded scanner using the options in this tab. Use these settings to ensure that the communication ports on Omnii match the settings of the serial devices to which they are connected. If the settings do not match exactly, the devices may not function. Note that some devices can auto-detect serial port settings (such as baud rate), and in this case Omnii will dictate the settings. Baud rates often have a direct impact on performancethey should be set as high as possible while still ensuring reliable communication. 5.12.4.1 Port Replicator Port A (COM5) and Port B (COM6) Port Replicator Port A (COM5) and Port B (COM6) are standard RS-232 DE-9 DTE ports on the Omnii port replicator module, available on some snap modules and cradle types. Enabled This parameter must be set to ON in order for Omnii to recognize the device connected to the Port Replicator 9-pin (COM5). Power (COM6 only) - TBD Pin 9 on Omnii COM6 is reserved for 5V power out and is defaulted to OFF. This parameter must be set to ON to enable power to a Snap Module or Vehicle cradle. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual 167 Chapter 5: Configuration Ports Tab Baud Double-tapping on this parameter displays a pop-up window in which you can choose an ap-
propriate rate of data transfer. Figure 5.6 Port Baud Rates Data Bits This parameter determines the number of data bits included in each asynchronous data byte. Most devices use 8-bit data bytes. Double-tapping on this option displays a pop-up window in which you can choose either 7 or 8 data bits. Parity This parameter determines the type of parity checking used on the data going through the port replicator port. Double-tapping on this option displays a pop-up window in which you can choose the appropriate parity. Stop Bits This parameter specifies the number of stop bits1, 1.5 or 2used for asynchronous communication. Trigger On Sequence And Trigger Off Sequence If a SICK scanner connected to an Omnii port requires a serial stream of data bytes to trigger the scanner on and another to trigger the scanner off, the Trigger On Sequence and Trigger Off Sequence parameters allow you to define these serial streams. 168 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Chapter 5: Configuration Total Recall Double-tapping on Trigger On Sequence or Trigger Off Sequence displays a screen with a hex array of 10 elements. These parameters work in conjunction with Manage Triggers sending on and off data streams to the trigger module you assigned. For example, suppose you launch Manage Trig-
gers and choose Decoded Scanner as the module to trigger. Next, you assign a trigger keyfor this example, . (period). To define the serial stream of data bytes to control the on and off function of the trigger key, enter a hex value in the Trigger On Sequence and the Trigger Off Sequence fields. When you press the trigger key, the Trigger On Sequence is sent and when you release the trigger key, the Trigger Off Sequence is sent, turning the trigger key on and off. 5.13 Total Recall Total Recall is a Psion Teklogix utility developed to maintain applications and settings during a cold boot, and clone settings to other devices.

Connect button: To force connection to a specific, existing network, highlight the network to which you want Omnii to connect, and tap on the Connect button. B-4 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Figure B.4 Wireless Information Tab Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config Wireless Information Tab This tab lists available networksany access points that are broadcasting an SSID, and it lists preferred networksnetworks that you have configured. Since access points are gener-
ally secure, they will most likely not be listed here. By default, Omnii attempts to connect to preferred networks. This behaviour can be changed by enabling Automatically connect to non-preferred networks in the Advanced dialog box (see Figure B.6). To add a new configuration, tap on the Add New button. A blank Wireless Properties dialog box is displayed. Wireless Properties Type the appropriate SSID (Service Set Identifier) in the Network name (SSID): dialog box. The Network name field can contain a maximum of 32 characters. The name assigned here is listed as a preferred network. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual B-5 Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config Wireless Information Tab Important: Keep in mind that Omnii will only communicate with access points that are configured with the same SSID. Ad Hoc And Infrastructure: If you are using an Infrastructure networkone in which the hand-helds must pass data through an access pointleave the checkbox next to This is an ad hoc network blank. If you are using an Ad Hoc networka network in which the hand-helds pass data directly to other Ad Hoc devices without an access pointadd a checkmark in the checkbox next to This is an ad hoc network to enable Ad Hoc. Encryption: WEP (Wired-Equivalent Privacy) encryption prevents others from acci-
dentally accessing your network. If you are not using encryption, you can choose Disabled from the drop-down encryption menu. Otherwise, leave this field as is. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a standard for protecting data through encryp-
tion. AES supports key sizes of 128 bits, 192 bits and 256 bits and will serve as a replacement for the Data Encryption Standard (DES), which has a key size of 56 bits. In addition to the increased security that comes with larger key sizes, the AES algorithm is a symmetrical block cipher that can encrypt (encipher) and decrypt (decipher) information. Authentication: 802.11 supports several subtypes of network authentication services:
Open, Shared, WPA, and WPA-PSK. Under Open authentication, any wireless station can request authentication. The station that needs to authenticate with another wireless station sends an authentication management frame that contains the identity of the sending station. The receiving station then sends back a frame that indicates whether it recognizes the identity of the sending station. Under Shared authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have received a secret shared key over a secure channel that is independent from the 802.11 wireless network communications channel. Under WPA and WPA-PSK authentication, the use of 802.1x authentication is required. For wireless networks without a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service
(RADIUS) infrastructure, WPA supports the use of a preshared key. For wireless net-
works with a RADIUS infrastructure, Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and RADIUS is supported. Network Key: This text box is used to specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active WEP key on the access point. To assign a Network key, highlight The key is provided automatically, and uncheck the checkbox to disable this option. B-6 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Figure B.5 Network Key and Key Index Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config Wireless Information Tab Key Index: This field is used to identify the WEP key. Enter a value from 1 to 4. Enable 802.1x authentication: 802.1X is the IEEE standard that offers additional secu-
rity for local area networks. It provides authentication for user devices attached to an Ethernet network, whether wired or wireless. A security protocol packet such as TLS or MD5 encapsulated in an EAP is used in conjunction with the 802.1X standard to authenticate users at the MAC layer. Available EAPs are listed in the drop-down menu next to the EAP option. To activate 802.1X, highlight 802.1x authentication, and check the checkbox. EAP Type (Extensible Authentication Protocol): This drop-down menu lists the EAP types available on your system. The items in this drop-down menu will vary depending on your network setup. Keep in mind also that some authentication protocols require that you select a Certificate. By selecting the Properties button, you will be able to select a Certificate. Certificates on page 95 provides a website that outlines how to create certificates for your network. Saving and exiting the radio setup: Once youve completed the configuration, press
[ENTER], or tap on OK. The connection you created will be listed in the Wireless Information tab as a preferred network. The radio will search for the SSID and compare the WEP and authentication information you specified. If there is a match between the hand-held settings and the access point settings, the hand-held will communicate on the network through the access point.

C-50 C-2 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual C.1 Bar Code Settings The Teklogix Scanners icon in the Control Panel provides dialog boxes in which you can tailor bar code scanner configurations and choose the bar codes your scanner will recognize. The parameters are preset with the default settings of the decoded scanner installed in the unit. For a listing of available scanners and their specifications, please refer to Chapter 7:
Specifications. Note: To enable a newly-installed scanner, press and hold down the [FN] key and the
[ENTER/Power] key simultaneously for a minimum of three seconds. For information on configuring the Options, Translations, and Ports settings, see Teklogix Scanners on page 158. C.1.1 Scanner Options The drop-down menu to the right of the Scanner option allows you to choose configurations for one of the following scanner types, depending on what is installed in/on your hand-held:
Decoded (internal), Decoded (HHP), Decoded (Intermec ISCP, and Non-decoded Scanners. The symbologies listed change to reflect the scanner you choose and the bar codes it sup-
ports. Always defer to your bar code scanners programming manual when in doubt about the availability or settings for any parameter. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual C-3 Note: Your Omnii comes preconfigured from the factory for internal scanner types. The type of scanner installed can be determined from the System icon in the Control Panel, under the System Properties tab. Important: To improve the decode speed and performance, enable (set to on) only those codes that are required by the application. Keep in mind that some bar code types are only available when an internal imaging scanner is installed. All internal scanners can be configured using these dialog boxes. C.1.2 Restoring Default Settings If you want to restore the factory defaults after making changes, the defaults can be applied to a selected parameter, sub-tree of parameters, or all scanner parameters. Press and hold on a symbology (e.g., Code 128) to display a pop up a menu. Choose Default subtree to reset only the parameters in the symbology you selected, or choose Default all settings to reset all scanner parameters to default settings. To reset a single parameter to its default setting:
Press and hold on the parameter you want to reset. Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Decoded (Internal) Scanners Choose Default parameter to reset the parameter to the default setting. C.2 Decoded (Internal) Scanners Tap on the Scanner drop-down menu, and choose Decoded (internal). C.2.1 Options Note: Some options are available only for specific scanners. Refer to the option names in this section for scanner model identification. Dot Time (msec) The value selected for Dot Time (msec) determines (in milliseconds) how long the targeting dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. When you double-tap Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual C-5 Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value of 0 msec, 200 msec or 400 msec. A value of 0 (zero) disables the target dot. Laser On Time The value assigned to this parameter determines how long the laser will remain on when the scan button or trigger is pressed. Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in which you can enter a value between 5 and 99. The value is measured in tenths of seconds. C.2.2 Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options Scan Mode You can set the method of scanning by setting this parameter to Scan beam only, Aim with Scan: 1 trigger pull, Aim with Scan: 2 trigger pulls, Aim with Scan on trigger release, and Continuous Scan Mode. Default is Scan beam only. Aim Duration This parameter determines the total time the aiming pattern appears before the scanner laser begins sweeping. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value from 0 to 30 (0 to 3 sec.). A value of 0 (zero) disables the aiming-dot. Minimum Cancel Time The value assigned to this parameter determines the time delay before the scanner is turned off, once the scanner trigger or button is released. This gives the scanner a minimum amount of time to complete its current decode before the scan is cancelled when you quickly trigger on/off. Power Mode This parameter is a power-saving option. Tapping on it displays a screen listing two power mode options: Continuous Power and Low Power. In Continuous Power mode, the scanner is always on, waiting for a trigger pull or serial communication. In Low Power mode, the scanner is in a standby state, drawing minimal power until a trigger pull or serial communication wakes it. Keep in mind that while this option is more suitable for battery powered applications, there will be a slight delay while the scanner powers up to scan a bar code. C-6 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Decoded (Internal) Scanners Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options Low Power Timeout To extend laser life, you can select the time the scanner remains active following a success-
ful decode. The scanner wakes from low power mode when a bar code is scanneda successful decode restores normal flashing. This is only used if the units Trigger Mode has been changed to Continuous On. If the unit is used in a fixed mount this parameter might be used, but not if the unit is used as a hand-held. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a value of 30 sec., 1 min., 2 min. or 3 min. Note: This parameter is only used if the Trigger Mode has been set to Continuous On and Omnii is mounted in a fixed position; otherwise, Low Power Timeout is not used. Parameter Scanning Setting this parameter to on enables decoding of parameter bar codes. Linear Security Level This parameter allows you to select the security level appropriate for your bar code quality. There are four levels of decode security for linear code types (e.g., Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5). Higher security levels should be selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As security levels increase, the scanners decode speed decreases. Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in which you can enter a value from 1 to 4. Linear security level 1 specifies that the following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded:
Code Type Length Codabar MSI Plessey D 5 of 5 I 2 of 5 All 4 or less 8 or less 8 or less Linear security level 2 specifies that all types of codes must be successfully read twice before being decoded. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual C-7 Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Decoded (Internal) Scanners Decoded (Internal) Data Options Linear security level 3 specifies that code types other than the following must be success-
fully read twice before being decoded. The following codes must be read three times:
Code Type Length MSI Plessey D 2 of 5 I 2 of 5 4 or less 8 or less 8 or less C.2.3 Linear security level 4 requires that all code types be successfully read three times before being decoded. Bi-Direction Redundancy Note: This parameter is only valid if a Linear Security Level is enabled. When this parameter is enabled, a bar code must be successfully scanned in both directions
(forward and reverse) before being decoded. Decoded (Internal) Data Options Transmit Code ID Char A code ID character identifies the scanned bar code type. In addition to any single character prefix already selected, the code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the decoded symbol. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a transmit code: None, AIM or Symbol. Scan Data Format This parameter allows you to change the scan data transmission format. Double-tapping on Scan Data Format displays the following options from which you can choose a data format: data (as-is), data [S1], data [S2], data [S1][S2], [P] data, [P] data
[S1], [P] data [S2] and [P] data [S1][S2]. C-8 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Decoded (Internal) Scanners Code 39 Prefix [P], Suffix [S1] and Suffix [S2]
A prefix and/or one or two suffixes may be appended to scan data for use in data editing. When you double-tap on these parameters, dialog boxes are displayed in which you can enter a value from 0 to 255. Delete Char Set ECIs Setting this parameter to on enables the scanner to delete any escape sequences representing Character Set ECIs (Extended Channel Interpretations [also known as GLIs]) from its buffer before transmission. When this parameter is enabled, the scanner transmits data from PDF417 and MicroPDF417 bar codes containing Character Set ECIs, even when the ECI Protocol is disabled. ECI Decoder Setting this parameter to on enables the scanner to interpret any Extended Channel Interpre-
tations (ECIs) supported by the scanner. This parameter has no effect on symbols that were not encoded using ECIs. If this parameter is set to off and a symbol that was encoded using an ECI escape is scanned, the scanner transmits the ECI escape followed by the uninterpreted data. C.2.4 Code 39 Enabled Setting this parameter to on enables Code 39. Enable Trioptic Code 39 Note: Trioptic Code 39 and Full ASCII should not be enabled simultaneously. The scanner does not automatically discriminate between these two symbologies. Trioptic Code 39 symbols always contain six characters. Setting this parameter to on allows this type of symbology to be recognized. Convert To Code 32 Note: Code 39 must be enabled in order for this parameter to function. Setting this parameter to on allows the scanner to convert the bar code from Code 39 to Code 32.

All the available bar code symbologies for this type of scanner can be selected in this tab. A plus sign (+) to the left of the menu item indicates that a sub-menu of parameters is attached. Tap on the + sign to display the sub-menu. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual C-39 Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Non-Decoded Scanners Options C.5.1 To change a parameter value, double-tap on the parameter. If you need to type a value, a dialog box is displayed in which you can type a new value. If you need to change a yes or no value, double-tapping on the parameter toggles between yes and no. If youre using the keyboard:
Highlight the bar code you want to work with, and press the [RIGHT] arrow key to display the sub-menu. Use the [UP] and [DOWN] arrow keys to highlight a parameter. To change a parameter value, press [SPACE] or the [RIGHT] arrow key. If a field requires text entry, a text box is displayed in which you can enter the appropriate value. Tap on the + sign next to Options to display these parameters. Options Dot Time (msec) The value selected for Dot Time (msec) determines (in milliseconds) how long the target-
ing dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. When you double-
tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value from 0 to 3000. A value of 0 (zero) disables the target dot. Short Code When enabled, this parameter allows scanning of short I 2 of 5 bar codes (2 characters). When disabled, these short bar codes are rejected. Enabling Short Code may reduce the robustness of the decoding since the hand-held must decode more potential bar codes; it is therefore not recommended for general-purpose bar codes with 4 or more characters. Verify The value entered for this parameter determines the number of correct additional decodes re-
quired after the initial decode, prior to a bar code being accepted. Higher values significantly increase the time it takes to decode a bar code but also improve the reliability of the decoded bar code. Security This parameter controls the tolerance for decoding edge-to-edge bar codes (Code 93, Code 128, UPC/EAN). Lower values have a lower tolerance for misreads, but they also increase the time it takes to decode the bar code. The default value of 30 is generally a good compro-
mise setting. C-40 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Appendix C: Bar Code Settings - TBD Non-Decoded Scanners Code 39 C.5.2 Code 39 Enabled Set this parameter to on to enable Code 39. Full ASCII If this parameter is enabled, the characters +, %, and / are used as escape characters. The combination of an escape character and the next character is converted to an equivalent ASCII character. Include Check If this parameter is enabled, the check digit is included with the decoded bar code data. AIAG Strip If this parameter is enabled, the AIAG data identifier is removed from each decoded Code 39 label. The data identifier occurs in the first position next to the Code 39 start character. It can be a single alphabetic character or a series of numeric digits followed by an alphabetic character. This identifier defines the general category or specific use of the data contained in the rest of the bar code. Note: If your unit is operating with the Psion Teklogix TESS application, this parameter should not be used in conjunction with the TESS AIAG feature. This is because the hand-held performs the strip function before it processes the data through the AIAG feature; if the prefix is stripped, the data is not identified as AIAG. Error Accept If the Err Accept and AIAG Strip parameters are enabled, all label data without an AIAG identifier character is accepted. If the Err Accept parameter is disabled and the AIAG Strip parameter is enabled, the label data is not accepted. MOD Checks This parameter allows you to choose the check digit calculated: MOD 43 Check, MOD 10 Check or None. Double-tap on MOD Checks to display your options.

This imager services application is used for cameras and imagers to configure linear (1D), stacked linear, matrix (true 2D) and postal bar codes. A Demonstration Application is pro-
vided to demonstrate how the imager works. Refer to Demo on page 71 for details. D.1 Required Applets In order to configure imaging, the Manage Triggers applet must be present in the Control Panel, along with the Teklogix Imagers applet. Note: The Teklogix Imagers icon is only displayed when the appropriate imager is installed in your Omnii. If there is an imager installed but this icon is not present, additional software (ICS) may need to be installed. To enable a newly-installed imager, press and hold down the [FN] key and the
[ENTER/Power] key simultaneously for a minimum of three seconds. D.2 Presets There are two methods that can be used to configure an imager using the Teklogix Imagers applet:
Use a predefined preset. Create a custom preset based on a predefined preset. Important: It is strongly recommended that a predefined preset is used whenever possible. Each predefined preset contains a coherent group of settings that are known to work together in the intended environment. In almost all situations, at least one of the prede-
fined presets results in a satisfactory outcome. A preset is a group of exposure and image correction settings. Each preset configures the imager for a specific purpose such as bar code decoding or image capture. Presets also allow easier and faster configuration of the imager after power-on or resume from suspend. The predefined presets are generic and satisfy most user requirements. A custom preset can be created for a specific user application, such as: include only specified bar codes, read only a specified number of bar codes or for reading unusual media. Every preset belongs to a preset type. The following preset types are available:
Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual D-3 Draft 1 Appendix D: Teklogix Imagers Applet Predefined Presets Imaging for photo capture. Imaging for bar code decoding. Symbology selection. At any time, only one preset of each type can be designated as the user-selected active preset. D.2.1 D.2.2 Predefined Presets Predefined presets are built into the imaging software and cannot be changed. The pre-
defined presets allow you to use the imager to perform specified tasks without having to understand and set numerous variables. In almost all cases these predefined presets are sufficient. Bar Code Predefined Presets (Barcoding Tab) These presets encompass the majority of the most popular bar codes and their subtypes. The bar code decoding symbology predefined presets define which bar codes can be decoded. The bar code decoding camera predefined presets determine how the bar code images are captured. D.2.2.1 Bar Code Decoding Symbology Predefined Presets The following presets select groups of similar bar codes for decoding. Note: It is recommended that the default preset be used whenever possible. My Default This preset uses the Symbology Settings menu to define the preset. For details about the Symbology Settings menu, refer to Barcoding Tab Configuring Symbologies on page D-
17. Factory Default This preset enables the decoding of frequently used bar codes. All This preset enables the decoding of all bar codes that the imager can decode. Linear This preset enables the decoding of all the 1D symbologies that the imager can decode. D-4 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Appendix D: Teklogix Imagers Applet Image Capture Predefined Presets (Imaging Tab) Linear and PDF417 This preset enables the decoding of all the 1D and PDF symbologies that the imager can decode. Matrix This preset enables the decoding of all 2D symbologies that the imager can decode. Postal This preset enables the decoding of all the postal symbologies that the imager can decode. D.2.2.2 Bar Code Decoding Camera Predefined Presets The following presets enable successful bar code image capture in almost all conditions. Note: It is recommended that the default preset be used whenever possible. Default This preset works in a wide range of conditions. It is optimized for a normal office lighting
(about 300 Lux). Low Light This preset is designed for very dark conditions such as inside a warehouse where the lights are kept low, or inside an unlit truck. This preset increases either the exposure time or the gain. Low Power This preset minimizes the use of the flash so as to conserve the battery power on the hand-
held. Glossy Surface This preset minimizes the use of the flash so as to reduce reflection. This preset is used to read bar codes that are behind glass, or inside the plastic window of an envelope. D.2.3 Image Capture Predefined Presets (Imaging Tab) The following presets enable successful image capture in almost all conditions. Note: It is recommended that the default preset be used whenever possible. Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual D-5 Draft 1 Appendix D: Teklogix Imagers Applet Using the Teklogix Imagers Applet Default This preset works in a wide range of conditions. It is optimized for a normal office lighting
(about 300 Lux). Motion This preset uses a shorter exposure time so as to freeze motion. Low Light Near This preset is designed for dark conditions, it uses a longer exposure time and includes the flash.

D.4.1 Options Auto Retry On Failed Decode Enabled Setting this parameter to on allows the imager to repeat the image capture attempt if the initial attempt fails. The number of retries is dependent on the value assigned in the next pa-
rameter, Max Number of Auto Retry. If this parameter is set to off, the imager will only attempt the image capture once. D-22 Psion Teklogix Omnii Hand-Held Computer User Manual Draft 1 Appendix D: Teklogix Imagers Applet All 1D With Strong Recovery Enabled Max Number of Auto Retry The value assigned for this parameter governs the number of times the imager will attempt to capture a bar code if the first attempt fails to a maximum of 99 times. Decoder Timeout This parameter determines the maximum time that the decoder will spend searching for barcode on captured image. The value assigned here is dependent on the type of bar code and quality of the image being capture. For example, the value may need to be increased to compensate for larger bar codes with more data encoded or for poor quality images. On the other hand, the value can be decreased for smaller, good quality images. The allowable value ranges from 200 to 500 msec. Perspective Pattern Enabled - TBD Document perspective correction manipulates a captured imageusually a documentso that it appears that the camera was perpendicular to the image plane, when in fact the image was distorted because the camera was at an angle to the image plane. After perspective cor-
rection all lines that are parallel on the original, are parallel on the image, and the image is displayed as it appears on the original page. When this parameter is enabled, Single Target Mode Enabled When this parameter is enabled, the decoder assumes that a single bar code exists in the image and that it is located in the centre of the image. Add AIM ID Prefix The AIM ID (Association for Automatic Identification and Mobility) is an international bar code identifier. When this parameter is enabled, the AIM ID is inserted at the beginning of the decoded bar code. D.4.2 D.4.3 All 1D With Strong Recovery Enabled Enabled Setting this parameter to on.
