Encryption
A server in the network or a service within a server that
assigns IP addresses.
A bar code or symbol in which the spaces between
characters (intercharacter gaps) are not part of the code.
A binary bar code symbology representing each character
by a group of five bars, two of which are wide. The location
of wide bars in the group determines which character is
encoded; spaces are insignificant. Only numeric characters
(0 to 9) and START/STOP characters may be encoded.
The Control Panel allows you to set the IP address for a
DNS Server, if used. This allows users to use server names,
rather than IP addresses. It is set on the Network tab of the
Control Panel.
The Control Panel allows you to set a Domain Name for the
DNS Server, if used (e.g., symbol.com). It is set on the
Network tab of the Control Panel.
Disk Operating System. This is basic software that allows
you to load and use software applications on your
computer. Also see NetID.
Dynamic random access memory.
See Data Terminal Equipment.
European Article Number. This European/International
version of the UPC provides its own coding format and
symbology standards. Element dimensions are specified
metrically. EAN is used primarily in retail.
See EPC.
Generic term for a bar or space.
Total linear dimension occupied by all characters of a code
pattern, including start/stop characters and data.
ENQ software handshaking is also supported for the data
sent to the host.
Encryption is the scrambling and coding of data, typically
using mathematical formulas called algorithms, before
information is transmitted over any communications link or
network. A key is the specific code used by the algorithm to
encrypt or decrypt the data. Also see, Decryption and Key.
