Scanning RD Bar Codes

When the mobile computer scans and successfully decodes a single or multiple RD bar codes, the data encoded in the bar code can:
• reset the mobile computer's connection profile. A connection profile is a set of Mobile Companion parameters that the
mobile computer uses to access the wireless network.
• initiate downloads of one or more software packages from an FTP server to the mobile computer.
Currently, RD only recognizes AirBEAM software packages. See
