Chapter 6 Applock; Introduction - LXE VX3Plus Reference Manual

Introduction

Note:
LXE's AppLock is designed to be run on LXE certified Windows CE based devices only. LXE
loads the AppLock program as part of the LXE customer installation process.
Configuration parameters are specified by the AppLock Administrator for the mobile device end-
user. AppLock is password protected by the Administrator.
End-user mode locks the end-user into the configured application or applications. The end user
can still reboot the mobile device and respond to dialog boxes. The administrator-specified
application is automatically launched and runs in full screen mode when the device boots up.
When the mobile device is reset to factory default values, for example after a cold reset, the
Administrator may need to reconfigure the AppLock parameters.
Note:
AppLock is updated periodically as new options become available. Contact your LXE
representative for assistance, downloads and update availability.

Chapter 6 AppLock

LXE has made the assumption, in this chapter, that the first user to power up a new
mobile device is the system administrator.
A few applications do not follow normal procedures when closing. AppLock cannot
prevent this type of application from closing, but is notified that the application has
closed. For these applications, AppLock immediately restarts the application (see Auto
Re-Launch) which causes the screen to flicker. If this type of application is being locked,
the administrator should close all other applications before switching to end-user mode
to minimize the screen flicker.
