Custom Profile Example - Honeywell Dolphin CT50 User Manual

When the HoneywellDecoderSettingsV2.exm file is updated, the computer receives
notification, performs initial processing of the profile information, and writes sta-
tus information to the HoneywellDecoderSettingsV2.err file. The err file is written
back to the same location as the .exm file, either \Documents\Profile or
\SharedData\Enterprise\Persistent\Profile.
The HoneywellDecoderSettingsV2.exm file may contain profiles for both Wedge
Mode and POS Mode. The HoneywellDecoderSettingsV2.exm is in XML format and
each section element defines a different profile. The profile targeted for Wedge
Mode is identified by the name "HONWedge". There can only be one HONWedge
profile. All other profiles are available for POS applications.
The HONWedge profile is applied whenever the computer enters Wedge Mode.
POS profiles are applied when a POS application calls the POS API to set an active
profile. POS profiles may be automatically applied using the Apply command set to
true.

Custom Profile Example

The following example contains two profiles, one for Wedge Mode and one for POS
Mode.

The .exm file contains the required ConfigDoc element named "Data Collection
Profiles." This element is not optional and must always be included.
The Section tags <section> identify the profile names. The POS profile name may
be customized to anything you want but wedge mode profile must be named
"HONWedge". For the example below, "C39 Internal Scanner" is used for the POS
Mode profile and "HONWedge" for the Wedge Mode profile.
The command tags <cmd> identify the profile settings.
The Device command <cmd="Device"> is set to Internal to indicate the internal
scanner and not an external scanner (e.g., ring scanner). The second profile,
named "HONWedge," must contain a Device command set to Internal but a POS
profile can be set to either Internal or USB.
The Type command (cmd="TYPE"), is set to Full, which instructs the scanning
system to first restore defaults before applying the commands in the profile.
The Apply (cmd="APPLY") command instructs the scanning system to
automatically apply the profile when a POS application claims the scanner. The
Apply command is not applicable to Wedge Mode. In Wedge Mode the
"HONWedge" profile is automatically applied whenever the scanning system
switches to Wedge Mode.
The "HONWedge" profile enables EAN-13 and issues a command to include the
check digit.
The "HONWedge" profile shows the syntax for issuing wedge commands,
including how to enter binary data as postambles or preambles.
