Page 136: Desktop Configuration Utility (Dxu)
Datalogic Applications Desktop Configuration Utility (DXU) Datalogic DXU is a unified device configuration utility and firmware update utility. DXU can connect directly to the Joya Touch A6 that connects either directly to a PC via USB or remotely over a network via Wi-Fi.
Page 137: How Dxu Works
Datalogic Applications DXU offers a method to print out barcodes that Joya Touch A6 users can scan to quickly connect to DXU, called Scan2Deploy. DXU also offers the capability to create barcodes that can completely configure the device by scanning specific configuration barcodes alone, without connecting to DXU via USB or via a network.
Page 138 Datalogic Applications XML is a standard data format that is widely used for a variety of applications on the internet. Some data is encrypted in the XML file to protect your sensitive data from prying eyes, but most data which is not sensitive is transmitted in plain text that can be easily viewed and analyzed.
Page 139: Installation
DXU is supported on both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 10. Unsupported Windows Versions DXU may run on older, unsupported Windows versions, but Datalogic technical support will not support users who have problems if they install DXU on Windows versions no longer supported by Microsoft.

Page 142 Datalogic Applications DXU Agent Settings Window Here is a brief overview of each of the settings: a. Enable service This check box is the key to changing any settings in DXU Agent. Clearing this check box allows you to edit almost all settings.
Page 143 Datalogic Applications Also, if for some reason you want to disable DXU on the Joya Touch A6, you can clear this check box to prevent DXU from changing settings. Doing this will not undo settings changes already made, but it will prevent DXU from getting the device’s settings and will prevent DXU from changing any settings on the device.
Page 144 Datalogic Applications Clearing this check box blocks transfer of binary data in the configuration file. Binary data can be quite large compared to other configuration data, so if performance is important and the desktop wallpaper file does not need to be changed remotely for example, the administrator can clear this check box to make configuration files smaller and quicker to apply.
Page 145 Datalogic Applications This field stores the user name used to log into DXU Agent. It is put into effect when the Is Authentication required check box is selected. The default value is “admin” and you can change it. Password This field stores the password used to log into DXU Agent. It is put into effect when the Is Authentication required check box is selected.
Page 146 Datalogic Applications Is application install enabled This checkbox enables installing applications with Simplified Deploy. This is a security setting that can be used to disable the feature of allowing Simplified Deploy to install customer applications onto the device. m. Enable VNC This check box enables VNC, a cross-platform standard for remotely controlling computers.
Page 147 Datalogic Applications As with the DXU Agent settings listed above, these advanced settings can only be changed when the Enable service check box is cleared. a. Device HTTP Server Port This field configures the HTTP port for the DXU server running on the device.
Page 148 Datalogic Applications Version This page displays the DXU Agent version number. DXU Application Controls Available Device List and Configuration The Available Devices list displays devices which are either currently connected, have been connected since launching DXU, or were manually connected at some time in the past. You can refresh the view to automatically show devices or hide devices which connect while you work on another device.
Page 149 Datalogic Applications remember that automatic discovery is restricted to discovering devices only within your PC’s subnet. To configure a connected device, you simply click its button under Available Devices to load its configuration into DXU. To return to the DXU main window, click the Back button (generally, a leftward pointing arrow in a circle).
Page 150 Datalogic Applications Add Device This button opens the Add Device dialog box which allows you to type the IP address of a device. This dialog box does not support DNS naming of devices. You can also use a custom TCP port if you have configured your device to use one in DXU Agent.

Code 128 is a linear symbology that can be scanned by laser scanners, but its data capacity is low, which may result in a great many individual labels to be scanned in order to fully configure a device remotely.
Page 159 Datalogic Applications Pairing Configuration Controls These fields let you configure your connection to the PC you are running DXU on. These fields are filled in automatically, but you can change them to deliberately connect to another IP address where another instance of DXU is running, for example.
