Chapter 3 Configuration

Introduction

This chapter describes how to set up and configure the MK1200 applications, communications, and network
settings which include parameters such as the device name, internet browser settings, date and time, and several
other key settings.
Configure these settings remotely using the Symbol Remote Device Manager (RDM), or locally on the MK1200
using the System Menu. These settings are saved in the configuration registry file (mkconfig.reg) in the MK1200
Application folder to maintain them across cold boot cycles.

Remote Configuration using Symbol Remote Device Manager

Use the Symbol Remote Device Manager (RDM) to configure parameters remotely. RDM is a Windows
utility that runs on a host computer and generates/edits an MK1200 configuration file (mkconfig.reg). Load this file
onto the MK1200 and reboot the MK1200 to configure the device.
See Chapter 4, Remote Device Manager

Local Configuration

Using the System Menu (Touch Screen Devices Only)
The System Menu function sets configuration parameters locally on the MK1200. The System Menu is similar to
the MK1200 Configuration Utility window of the RDM, except the virtual keyboard is used to enter information.
From within the System menu, use the
file (mkconfig.reg). The new settings are invoked upon the next cold boot. See
