User Interface, Maintaining Current Files | Datalogic Scanning PDA

User Interface

With an SNMP agent always running on the terminal, other SNMP-based network management tools, such as HP Openview®, IBM’s Tivoli, Computer Associates’ Unicenter, or CastleRock SNMPpc®, may also be used to config- ure/manage the terminals. To support this capability, Datalogic has released the Management Information Base (MIB) for Datalogic Windows-based ter- minals. The MIB is used by the SNMP management tools to allow them to interface with the SNMP agent provided on the terminals. This interface allows the management tool to configure the scanner controls or retrieve ter- minal type information.

For more information on SNMP, see “SNMP Interface” on page 59, or go to:

Maintaining Current Files

FMU uses a proprietary file update system to maintain current files on the ter- minal. FMU uses this protocol to allow the FMU Server to compare files and firmware versions between the server and the terminal, and to update the ter- minal if it is not up to date. FMU provides the administrator the ability to update a single copy of a file or firmware image, and have that copy be distrib- uted to all of the networked terminals with no further action required by the administrator. FMU ensures data integrity by verifying that the downloaded file is identical to the original prior to replacing the copy on the terminal, avoiding any possibility of corrupting the file.

User Interface

Windows® XP Interface

The FMU graphical user interface was designed to be consistent with the Windows XP GUI design practices and principles. The FMU User Interface is simple and intuitive, allowing you to perform tasks quickly and efficiently.

FMU’s User Interface has a similar look and feel to standard Windows Explorer tree-view/list-view design. The left pane displays the Tree View listing the FMU components; the right pane displays the List View containing details and options available for the selected component.
