2 EZConfig Overview EZConfig is a suite of products that configures Dolphin terminals quickly and efficiently. With the tools in the EZConfig suite, you can package data on the workstation, then deploy and unpackage that data on the Dolphin terminal. Components There are two main components: EZConfig Editor and EZConfig Client. EZConfig Editor Edits and creates configuration and registry documents in the EXM file format for Dolphin terminals.
EZConfig Editor EZConfig Editor creates, edits, and manages EXM files for Dolphin terminals. There is an EZConfig Editor on the workstation and an EZConfig Editor on the terminal. In the workstation editor, EXM files are edited, saved, then transferred to the terminal. In the terminal editor, EXM files are edited and saved right on the terminal; see EZConfig Editor on the Terminal (page 2-27).
Opening EZConfig Editor on the Workstation After you complete installation, EZConfig Editor is available on the workstation from the Start menu. On Windows Mobile-based devices, click Start > Programs > Honeywell > EZConfig Editor > EZConfig Editor. On the Dolphin 7600, click Start > Programs > Power Tools > EZConfig Utilities > EZConfig Editor. Menu Toolbar Menu and Toolbar Options The menu and toolbar at the top of the window contains many options.
File Menu Menu Item Description Properties Associates the EXM file with an application on the terminal; see Associating Applications on page 2-15. Create EZConfig Bar Code Exit Embeds the open EXM file in an Aztec bar code; see Generating Bar Codes on page 220. Closes EZConfig Editor. Edit Menu For Section Edit menu options, see Working with Sections on page 2-7. For Key Edit menu options, see Working with Keys on page 2-11. View Menu Menu Item Description Displays an icon over locked sections.
Tools Menu Menu Item Description Simplify Document Note: You cannot undo this action! Simplifies the EXM file, which makes it smaller. Simplifying permanently removes • Disabled sections and keys • Descriptions • Bar code settings When you create a bar code, you can simplify the file embedded in the bar code without affecting the open EXM file. This reduces the size of the bar code package yet keeps the disabled sections, descriptions, and bar code settings in the open EXM file for future reference.
Opening EXM Files EZConfig Editor opens EXM files stored on the workstation or the terminal (if an ActiveSync connection is established). Opening EXM Files on the Workstation Click File > Open or the Open toolbar button and select the EXM file. When you select a known MNU or INI file, EZConfig Editor prompts you to convert the file. When you select Yes, EZConfig Editor imports the file and converts it to the EXM file format. Then, you can click File > Save As to save the file with the EXM extension.
Working with Open EXM Files Whether you open an EXM or INI file, EZConfig Editor displays the content in four different sections of the window. Displays the file name. If the file is on the terminal, the title bar displays the remote path. Displays the root node and sections. Select a section and the details appear in the other portions of the window. The folders appear in different colors to indicate their status. Displays the keys in the selected section. Text that appears in blue can be edited.
Edit Menu Options Select a section click Edit to see the available options. Rename Activates the section name so that you can rename the section. Note: You cannot modify the name if the section is locked; see Section Locks (page 2-9). Cut Cuts a selected section. Copy Copies a selected section. Paste Pastes the section that was just cut or copied at the same level as the selected section. Paste as Child Pastes the section that was just cut or copied as a child of the selected section.
Modifying Section Names To change a section name, double-click on the folder and type in the new name or select Rename on the Edit menu. Type in the new name and press ENTER. Note: You cannot modify the name if the section is locked or disabled; see Section Locks (page 2-9). Modifying Section Descriptions Descriptions are not required to process key values but do help document the EXM file and often contain valuable information.
Section-Level Merge Modes EXM files ship with section-level merge modes already defined according to section content. Merge modes determine how section information is handled when an updated EXM file is deployed to the terminal where an existing version of that EXM file is stored. Merge modes are indicated by folder icons and in the Status bar. Mode Description Merge Effect Delete + Add Deletes non-common children elements (i.e.
Working with Keys Keys have a Name, a Description, and a Value and reside inside sections. For specific key values, consult the chapters of this user’s guide that describe the EXM file you’re attempting to edit. Edit Menu Options Select a key and right-click or click Edit to see the available options. The same options appear on both menus. Rename Activates the key name so that you can rename the key. Note: Rename is disabled if the key is locked or disabled; see Key Types (page 2-13).
Modifying Key Names To modify key names, double-click on the key name or select Rename on the Edit menu. Type in the new name and press ENTER or TAB. Note: You cannot modify the description if the key is locked; see Key Types (page 2-13). Only text that appears in blue can be modified. Modifying Key Values You can modify a key value only if its text appears in blue. In that case, double-click on the value or select the key and press ENTER. Type in the new value and press ENTER or TAB to save.
Key Types When a key is selected, its properties display in the Status bar. Lock Type Status Bar Indicator Description Effect Keys are locked by the section. • Name and Description cannot be modified. • Keys cannot be added, moved, or deleted within the section. The key name is locked individually. • Name and Description cannot be modified. • These keys can be moved. Read Only Read-only keys cannot be modified in any way. They appear in red. • Name, Description, and Value cannot be modified.
Creating New Configuration Documents To create new EXM files that are configuration documents, you can open an existing EXM file and save it with a new name or create an EXM file from scratch. 1. Click File > New > Configuration Document. The root node is created and appears as the top level section. All sections must be at least one level down from the root node. The name of the root node is always the same as the filename. The terminal reads root node first.
Associating Applications The Properties function associates an EXM file with an application on the terminal. The associated application launches after EZConfig Client decodes the bar code containing the EXM file. For more information, see Creating Bar Codes on page 2-19. While the EXM file is open, click File > Properties or the Document Properties toolbar button . Field Description Path Enter the location of the EXE on the terminal.
Registry Documents EZConfig Editor creates registry documents in the EXM file format and also opens existing REG files and converts them to the EXM file format. EZConfig Editor cannot save registry documents in the REG file format.
The new document contains the three top-level sections in a registry. These sections are locked and cannot be changed. You can add subsections to each section and then add keys to those subsections. 2. Click File > Save As. 3. Choose the name and location and click Save. You cannot save the document as a .reg file; you must save it as an EXM file. 4. To add sections, select one of the registry levels, right-click, and select Append Child Section. Enter the section information, and click OK.
When you click OK to save the key, the data appears in columns in the key area of the EZConfig Editor window. Processing Registry Documents on the Terminal After EZConfig Client updates the registry, the EXM file itself is deployed to the location entered in the Remote Path (page 2-20) field on the Bar Codes Tab (page 2-20). Note: EXM files appear with an icon on terminal windows.
Creating Bar Codes EZConfig Editor embeds EXM files in bar codes. The EZConfig Client on the terminal decodes the bar code and deploys the data. Using bar codes quickly and easily configures Dolphin terminals without an IrDA, ActiveSync, or network connection to a workstation. Document Types EZConfig Editor produces two kinds of EXM files: configuration documents and registry documents. Both can be embedded in bar codes and processed by EZConfig Client on the terminal.
Generating Bar Codes When creating a bar code, EZConfig Editor automatically encrypts and compresses the data in the EXM file. To generate a bar code, click File > Create EZConfig Bar Code OR the Create Bar Code toolbar button while the EXM file is open. EZConfig Editor generates a bar code or codes. The Bar Codes tab window opens displaying the details of the bar code package generated. The Bar Codes and Advanced tabs offers several processing options.
Field/Option Description Simplified Simplified is selected by default. This option simplifies the EXM file in the bar code, which removes disabled sections, description information, and bar code settings (if any), which decreases the size of the bar code. The open EXM file is not simplified. The differences in total package size are displayed in the Package Size (page 2-23) field. Individual bar code size can be seen in the Display (page 2-20) field.
Field Description Max Barcode Size Set the maximum amount of data (in bytes) one bar code can contain. The lower the number of bytes, the smaller the bar code. Bar code size is displayed to the right of the Display (page 2-20) field. The total number of bar codes created is displayed at the bottom of the window; see Bar Codes (page 2-23). Always use minimum # bar codes This option is selected by default. It calibrates the data so that the minimum number of bar codes are used.
Information at the Bottom of Tab Windows Field Description Package Size Displays the total size of the bar code package. This number changes with simplifying. Compression On Notifies you that compression and encryption are both on. Compression and encryption are always on by default. EZConfig Editor uses 128-bit encryption automatically. Encryption On Bar Codes Displays the total number of bar codes generated. This number changes as you move the slider on the Bar Codes tab.
Field/Option Description Save Saves the bar code sheet as an HTML file. Preview Click to see a print preview. Click Print on this window to print your bar codes.
Converting Known INI and MNU Files EZConfig Editor contains a batch conversion tool that converts known INI files on the terminal to the new EXM file format. EZConfig Editor pulls INI files from the \IPSM folder of a remote device, converts them to the EXM file format, and saves both original INI files and the converted EXM files in folders created on the workstation. You don’t lose your original INI files in the conversion.
C:\Program Files\Honeywell\Dolphin Power Tools and Demos\Device Image\Converted Files\Upgrade X. The X increases by one each time you run a batch conversion. 4. When you click OK, the conversion runs. 5. EZConfig Editor creates two folders inside the Upgrade X folder: Converted EXMs and Original INIs. Note: An Upgrade X folder with these two subfolders is created every time you run a conversion. Upgrades do not save over each other. 6. Check each converted EXM file in EZConfig Editor.
EZConfig Editor on the Terminal EZConfig Editor on the terminal edits and creates EXM files in the terminal and contains the same basic functionality as the editor on the workstation. Accessing EZConfig Editor On Windows Mobile-based devices, tap Start > Power Tools > EZConfig Utilities On the Dolphin 7600, tap Start > Programs > Power Tools > EZConfig Utilities. .
Available Menus The menus in the Command bar contain the same items as the menus in the EZConfig Editor on the workstation. File Menu For details about each menu item, see File Menu on page 2-3. Note: You cannot generate bar codes from EXM files on the terminal. Edit Menu For details about each menu item, see Edit Menu on page 2-4. The Edit menu pops up when you tap and hold on a section or key. View Menu Tools Menu This menu enables you to view the locked icon over locked section folders.
Moving Sections You cannot drag and drop to move sections in the tree. Use the Cut, Copy, Paste, and Paste as Child items on the Edit menu to move sections. Note: The Paste function pastes sections at the same level they were cut by default. Editing Keys Modifying Key Names and Descriptions To edit a key’s name, value, or description, you have three options: 1.
Launching Associated Applications The Tools menu contains an item named Launch Associated App. Launch Associated App is enabled only when there is an application associated with the EXM file. Selecting this item automatically saves the open EXM file and launches the associated application while the EXM file remains open. To see the associated application, tap File > Properties. The Path field contains the launch location of the application.
EZConfig Client EZConfig Client decodes bar codes created in EZConfig Editor and deploys the data in the terminal. In addition, if the EXM file in the bar code is associated with an application, EZConfig Client launches that application, which then processes the decoded data. EZConfig Client decodes bar codes with 40-bit and 128-bit encryption. Storage Location The EZConfig Client executable is stored in the \IPSM (\Honeywell for 6100/6500) folder.
If there is only one bar code in the package, EZConfig Client deploys the package. If there is more than one bar code in the package, EZConfig Client decodes the bar code, records that one bar code has been read, and waits for the next scan. 5. Scan all the bar codes in the package. Bar codes can be scanned in any order. 6. When all bar codes in the package have been scanned, the EZConfig client deploys the data.
EXM File Processing After decoding, EZConfig Client saves EXM files to the location in the terminal selected in the Remote Path (page 2-20) field on the Bar Codes Tab (page 2-20). (If the Temporary, page 2-22, option is selected in the bar code, EZConfig Client does not save the EXM file.) There are two types of EXM files: configuration documents and registry documents. EZConfig Client processes each type of file differently.
Scanning Bar Codes Directly from the Power Tools Main Window When the Power Tools or Demos main windows are open, press the SCAN key and: • If there is only one bar code in the package, EZConfig Client decodes and deploys the bar code without opening the EZConfig Client window. • If there are multiple bar codes in the package, EZConfig Client decodes the first bar code and opens the EZConfig Client window showing that one bar code in the package has been scanned.
3 DeviceConfig Overview DeviceConfig consists of the DeviceConfig.exe and the DeviceConfig.exm file located in the \IPSM (\Honeywell for 6100/6500) folder. DeviceConfig.exe looks for and applies the settings in the DeviceConfig.exm file. Note: On the Dolphin 7600, the DeviceConfig.exe is located in the \Program Files\Power Tools folder. DeviceConfig.exm File The DeviceConfig.exm file contains terminal configuration settings.
DeviceConfig.exm Sections and Keys The sections and keys in the DeviceConfig.exm file are locked, which means that you can change values but not names or descriptions. Section Name Description See Page Connections Configures communication parameters. There are child sections that configure the IrDA port, the on-board radios, and the ActiveSync connection. 3-2 System Configures basic system settings. 3-12 Applications Configures software applications.
WiFi Section–Dolphins 7850, 7900, and 9500 The keys in the WiFi section control the settings of the WLAN radio. Key Description Defaul t Value Available Values DriverName Specifies the name of the radio driver. This string must match the name of the driver for the current device. N/A X=A value in the drop-down list; radio driver names are terminal-specific. Different Dolphins have different radio drivers. TCPIP Section The keys in the TCPIP section determine how the radio handles IP addresses.
Security Section The Security section has no keys but two child sections: Supplicant and Non Supplicant. Supplicant Use this section to configure the WLAN radio on Dolphin 7850 terminals; see Supplicant Section–Dolphin 7850 on page 3-4. NonSupplicant Use this section to configure the WLAN radio on Dolphin 7900 and 9500 terminals; see NonSupplicant Section–Dolphins 7900 and 9500 on page 3-6. Supplicant Section–Dolphin 7850 The Supplicant section consists of a number of child sections.
Profile Subsections–Dolphin 7850 Each Profile subsection contains the keys that configure the radio connection from the terminal to the network. Key Description Default Value Available Values Encryption The encryption mode available for the association mode. N/A • Open & Shared (WEP) • TKIP, AES-CCMP, TKIP & CCMP (WPA) EAP Method Available EAP methods for IEEE 802.1X and WPA(2)-Enterprise (EAP) association modes.
Profile Subsections–Dolphin 7850 Each Profile subsection contains the keys that configure the radio connection from the terminal to the network. Key Description Default Value Available Values CA and/or Client Certificate • CA certificates are any certificates created by a certified authority (CA). • Client certificates contain information that identifies the user, as well as information about the organization that issued the certificate. This ensures that you can encrypt data end-to-end.
NonSupplicant Section–Dolphins 7900 and 9500 Key Description Defaul t Value Available Values NetworkType Determines the type of network the radio should access. 1 0=AdHoc (Minimum) 1=Infrastructure 2=Pseudo-AdHoc TxRate Defines the transmit rate. 15 1=1 Mb (Minimum) 2=2 Mb 3=Auto 1/2 Mb 4=5.5 Mb 8=11 Mb 15=Fully Auto (Maximum) Channel Channel (1-11) of the RF adapter.

Bluetooth Section Bluetooth Section—Dolphin 6100/6500/7600 The keys in this section enable the Bluetooth radio and configure Bluetooth printer settings. Key Description Default Value Available Values Enable Enable and disable the Bluetooth radio. This is the top level of the tree; printer settings are in a child section. 1 0=Disable 1=Enable; Default Printer This section configures a default Bluetooth printer by setting it up as a virtual COM Port. Address Bluetooth MAC Address of the printer.
Bluetooth Default Printer Values–Dolphins 7900 and 9500 In general, to establish a printer as a Bluetooth Favorite Device, you must establish the printer as a Bluetooth Favorite on the terminal. The problem is that Bluetooth Favorite settings are stored in RAM memory and therefore erased during each cold boot. The Default Printer section stores these settings permanently in the DeviceConfig.exm file so the printer remains a Favorite after a hard reset. Furthermore, you can distribute a DeviceConfig.
3. Copy the first number underneath Services. This is the hex value for the Service key field; “1101” in the illustration above. Note: For more detailed information about RegEdit, see RegEdit on page 8-1. GSM Section—Dolphins 7900 and 9500 The GSM section configures the GSM/GPRS radio on the Dolphin 7900 and 9500.

4 Startup Power Tools Overview Startup is the launch sequence when a Dolphin terminal is booted. There are two startup Power Tools: 1. Autorun (see page 4-1) 2. AutoInstall (see page 4-7) Autorun Autorun specifies the software applications to launch after each hard reset. Autorun is located in the \IPSM (\Honeywell for 6100/6500) folder and consists of an Autorun.exe that is programmed by the Autorun.exm File (page 4-1) .
Enabling and Disabling Sections If you don’t want to the application to launch at startup, you can delete the section. However, program sections contain settings you’ll want to keep when adding that same application back to startup. To keep the program section in the file for future reference, disable the program section instead of deleting it. Disabled sections appear in gray. When processing files, the terminal behaves as though disabled sections are not there and moves on to the next enabled section.
Key Function Default Available Values StartMenu Enables and disables the Start menu during Autorun 1 0=Disable; the Start menu is disabled during Autorun. 1=Enable; the Start menu is enabled. Debug Controls the debug function at AutoInstall. 0 0=Disable 1=Enable, an autorun.log file is created in the \IPSM (\Honeywell for 6100/6500) folder. TestMode Runs the terminal in test mode and tests the functionality of AutoInstall. This is a diagnostic tool.
Key Function Wait Determines if Autorun should wait for the program to complete and close before continuing to the next program in the sequence. • 0=Continue to the next program immediately • 1=Wait enabled StartOption Specifies the startup options for the program. Autorun launches the program only if the startup options entered here are met. • Blank= Always run the program. • X=See Start Options on page 4-5. Optional Keys—These are keys you can add but don’t appear in the default file.
Sample Autorun Configuration File A sample Autorun.exm file installs on the workstation to C:\Program Files\Honeywell\Power Tools and Demos for WM 5.0\EZConfig EXM Files. For more information, see Sample EXM Files on page 2-2. Start Options Start Options define the required system parameters for a software application to launch.
