Page 127: Chapter 6 - Applock (Application Locking)
MX7 Tecton and no password prompt is displayed. After the administrator specifies appli- cations to lock, assigns passwords and the device is rebooted or the hotkey is pressed, the MX7 Tecton switches to end user mode.
Page 128: End User Mode
• Create/change the password for administrator access. • Assign the name of the application, or applications, to lock. • Select the command line of the application to lock. In addition to these configuration options, the administrator can view and manage the status logs of AppLock sessions. Administrator default values for this device are: •...
Page 129: Passwords
Passwords A password must be configured. If the password is not configured, a new device switches into Administration mode without prompting for a password. In addition to the Administrator hotkey press, a mode switch occurs if inaccurate information has been configured or if mandatory information is missing in the configuration. There are several situations that display a password prompt after a password has been configured.
Page 130: Hotkey (Activation Hotkey)
Hotkey (Activation hotkey) If the MX7 Tecton has been configured to use AppLock to allow the user to switch between applications, the default user Activation key is Ctrl+Spc. The key sequence switches the focus between one application and another. Data entry affects the application running in the foreground only.
Page 131: Application Configuration
Use the Application tab options to select the applications to launch when the device boots up in End user Mode. If no application is specified when the Administrator Panel is closed, the MX7 Tecton reboots into Administrator mode. If a password has been set, but an application has not been specified, the user will be prompted for the password before enter- ing administration mode.
Page 132 Setting Function Global Key Default is Ctrl+Spc. Select the Global Key key sequence the end user is to press when switching between applications. The Global Key default key sequence must be defined by the AppLock Ad- ministrator. The Global key is presented to the end user as the Activation key. Global Delay Default is 10 seconds.
Page 133: Launch Button
Launch Button When clicked, displays the Launch options panel for the Filename selected on the Administration panel. Note: Launch order is determined by the Order specified in the Application panel. The Order value does not have to be sequential. Auto At Boot Default is Enabled.
Page 134 Auto Re-Launch Default is Enabled. When enabled for a specific application. automatically re-launches it (subject to the specified Auto Re-Launch Delay in seconds) after it terminates. This option allows the Administrator to disable the re-launch operation. AppLock cannot prevent all applications from closing. When an application that AppLock cannot prevent from clos- ing terminates, perhaps because of an error condition, AppLock re-launches the application when this option is enabled.
Page 135: Security
Security Setting an Activation Hotkey Specify the hotkey sequence that triggers AppLock to switch between administrator and user modes and the password required to enter Administrator mode. The default hotkey sequence is Shift+Ctrl+A. A 2nd key keypress is an invalid keypress for a hotkey sequence. Move the cursor to the Hot Key text box.
Page 136: Options
Options AppLock uses 3 timeout values when locking applications: Setting Explanation Launch The time to wait for an application to initially launch before timing out. Default value is 60000 milliseconds (60 timeout seconds). Replace The time to wait for an application to replace the current window with another one before timing out. Default timeout value is 20000 milliseconds (20 seconds).
Page 137: Status
Status Use the Status panel to view the log of previous AppLock operations and to configure which messages are to be recorded during AppLock operation. Status information is stored in a specific location on the storage device and in a specific logfile specified by the Administra- tor.
Page 138: Applock Help
Solution: When the Administrator is selecting a hotkey sequence to use when switching user modes, they are not allowed to enter key combinations that are reserved by installed software applications. Honeywell has validated RFTerm key combinations ONLY. When RFTerm is installed on the mobile device and an RFTerm restricted key sequence is specified as a hotkey sequence by the Administrator, the following error message is displayed in a message box: Selected hotkey is not allowed.
Page 139: Applock Error Messages
AppLock Error Messages Any messages whose first word is an ‘ing’ word is output prior to the action described in the message. For example, “Switching to admin-hotkey press” is logged after the administrator has pressed the hotkey but prior to starting the switch process. For all operations that can result in an error, an Error level message is displayed when a failure occurs.

Note: Identify the Scan Engine: Open the Data Collection application panel on the MX7 Tecton. Tap the About tab. The type of integrated scan engine is shown in the Scanner segment. The integrated scan engine activates when the Scan button on the front of the MX7 Tecton is depressed or when the trigger on an installed trigger handle is depressed.
Page 158: Data Processing Overview
Data Processing Overview Bar code data processing involves several steps. Some steps may be skipped during the processing depending on user selec- tions on the Symbology Settings panels. The steps are presented below in the order they are performed on the scanned data. 1.
Page 159: Main
The Data Collection Wedge supports up to three concurrent data collection devices. For example, the internal scanner could be used to collect data at the same time a Bluetooth scanner is paired and/or a serial device is attached to COM1. The MX7 Tecton must be in a desktop cradle to use a tethered scanner.
Page 160: Continuous Scan Mode
Continuous Mode is On. Continuous scan mode is only available if the MX7 Tecton is equipped with a Symbol or a Honeywell scanner. Continuous scan mode draws power from the main battery every time a scan read/decode sequence is performed.
Page 161: Notification
COM1 does not support 5V switchable power on Pin 9 for tethered scanners. Notification Use this panel to toggle internal scanner sounds on and off. Internal scanner sound, by default, is enabled. Setting Default Enable Internal Scanner Sound Enabled Good Scan Vibration Bad Scan Vibration Vibration Enable Good scan vibration or Bad scan vibration when a tactile response on a good scan or bad scan is desired.
Page 162 Since the Data Collection Wedge uses the operating system interface to emit sounds/beeps, if the volume/vibrate icon is set to anything other than On, Wedge beeps do not sound. Wedge vibration is not affected by the System setting. Beep/sound volume and vibration can be quickly toggled on and off by tapping the volume icon on the Windows Mobile Today screen.
Page 163: Data Options
• Replacing control characters • Adding a prefix and a suffix For MX7 Tecton with Symbol or Honeywell engine: Data Collection Wedge can only enable or disable the processing of a bar code inside the Wedge software. Enabling or dis- abling a specific bar code symbology at the scanner/imager is done manually using the configuration bar codes in the Integrated Scanner Programming Guide.

Enhanced Launch Utility Introduction The launch utility has two functions: • Process registry based Launch items • Process script based Launch items The registry based Launch items are processed before the script based Launch items. Registry Based Launch Items Registry based Launch items (documented here) are processed before the Script Based Launch items, see Script Based Launch Items (page 9-4).
Page 198 • The Order field is used to force a sequence of events; Order=0 is first, and Order=99 is last. Two items which have the same order are installed in the same pass, but not in a predictable sequence. • The Delay field is used to add a delay after the item is loaded, before the next is loaded. The delay is given in seconds, and defaults to 0 if not specified.
