    Parameter # F1h E0h The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 is a U.S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. FIPS enabled DS3578 digital scanners and cradles offer this secure mode of operation. To enable the FIPS mode of operation (enabled by default), scan the Enable FIPS bar code. The digital scanner will attempt to establish a secure session with the cradle to which it is connected.
  • Page 74: Connection Maintenance Interval

    4 - 24 DS3578 With FIPS Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Connection Maintenance Interval NOTE The Connection Maintenance Interval only applies in locked pairing mode (see page 4-20). When a scanner disconnects from a cradle due to a Link Supervision Timeout, the digital scanner immediately attempts to reconnect to the cradle for 30 seconds.
  • Page 75 Radio Communications 4 - 25 Considerations The system administrator determines the Connection Maintenance Interval. A shorter interval allows new users to gain access to abandoned connections more quickly, but causes problems if users leave the work area for extended periods. A longer interval allows existing users to leave the work area for longer periods of time, but ties up the system for new users.

    Radio Communications 4 - 27 Bluetooth Security The digital scanner supports Bluetooth Authentication and Encryption. Authentication can be requested by either the remote device or the digital scanner. When Authentication is requested, the digital scanner uses its programmed PIN code to generate a link key. The digital scanner stores this link key upon pairing, so you do not have to re-enter the PIN code when moving in and out of range, switching profiles, or switching between devices (e.g., between the cradle and the application).

    Chapter 13 Symbologies Introduction This chapter describes symbology features and provides the programming bar codes for selecting these features. Before programming, follow the instructions in Chapter 1, Getting Started. To set feature values, scan a single bar code or a short bar code sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the digital scanner is powered down.

    13 - 78 DS3578 With FIPS Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Security Level Parameter # 4Dh The digital scanner offers four levels of decode security for delta bar codes, which include the Code 128 family, UPC/EAN, and Code 93. Select increasing levels of security for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse relationship between security and digital scanner aggressiveness, so choose only that level of security necessary for any given application.
  • Page 343: Intercharacter Gap Size

    Symbologies 13 - 79 Intercharacter Gap Size Parameter # F0h 7Dh The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is typically quite small. Due to various bar code-printing technologies, this gap can grow larger than the maximum size allowed, preventing the digital scanner from decoding the symbol.

    13 - 80 DS3578 With FIPS Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Macro PDF Features Macro PDF is a special feature for concatenating multiple PDF symbols into one file. The digital scanner can decode symbols that are encoded with this feature, and can store more than 64 Kb of decoded data stored in up to 50 MacroPDF symbols.

    Chapter 14 Advanced Data Formatting Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data before transmission to the host device. Use ADF to edit scan data to suit requirements. Implement ADF by scanning a related series of bar codes which program the digital scanner with ADF rules.

  • Page 407: Appendix G Signature Capture Code

    Appendix G Signature Capture Code Introduction CapCode, a signature capture code, is a special pattern that encloses a signature area on a document and allows a digital scanner to capture a signature. There are several accepted patterns that allow automatic identification of different signatures on the same form. For example, on the federal tax return 1040 form there are three signature areas, one each for two joint filers, and one for a professional preparer.
  • Page 408: Capcode Pattern Structure

    G - 2 DS3578 With FIPS Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide CapCode Pattern Structure A CapCode pattern structure consists of a start pattern followed by a separator space, a signature capture box, a second separator space, and then a stop pattern. Assuming that X is the dimension of the thinnest element, the start and stop patterns each contains 9X total width in 4 bars and 3 spaces.
