Introduction - Symbol MC9000-K/S Reference Manual

Introduction

The 9000 Demo program illustrates how to use some of the mobile computer's many applications.
If the demo program is not already running on the mobile computer, it can be launched from the
Application folder (Start - Programs - File Explorer - Application folder). The demo program files reside
in the Application partition on the mobile computer. If this partition was not loaded to the device, it
can be obtained from the Symbol Web site and loaded using TCM (see
Mobile Computer for instructions on using TCM).
The sample application programs included in the 9000 Demo are provided for
the purpose of demonstration and are to be used as-is. Although each
program was thoroughly tested, there always exists the possibility of coding
errors. The source code for each sample application is provided in the SMDK
for eVC4 to allow a jump start into mobile application development. In the
unlikely event a coding error is found in one of the sample applications,
having access to the source code allows the customer to fix the error.
The following options are available via the demo program.
• Test Apps
• SelfTest - tests the functionality of various features on the mobile computer (e.g.,
display, scanner, touch panel, etc.).
• Notify - tests the green decode/function/shift/control/comm LEDs, and beeper
functionality.
• Keyboard - displays key codes when keys are pressed on the keypad.
• Display - shows examples of the shades (monochrome displays) and colors (color
displays) displayed in the touch panel.
• Memory - sample memory usage and allocation.
• MSR 9000 - sample magnetic stripe reader application.
• MSR Cameo - sample magnetic stripe reader application.
• Printing - sample printing application.
• Scan - sample scanning application for Visual C/C++.
• Files - sample file management utility.
• Sounds - plays and tests .wav files.
• Images - sample image editor.
• Ctl Panel- accesses the Control Panel window.
