Disabling MT2000 Scanner Services
In some cases, developers may choose to disable MT2000 Scanner Services which enables hand-held scan and
transmit operation on a Windows CE 5.0 device. When disabled, ScanItem.exe an d ScanInventory.exe
applications do not operate. In addition, connection to the STB2078 cradle, the Bluetooth-to-computer bridge, can
not operate as it relies on MT2000 Scanner Services to implement the necessary c ommunications.
To disable MT2000 Scanner Services:
1. Access the /Platform folder on the device via File Explorer.
2. Delete the ADCServices.reg file.
Alternately, you can also stop MT2000 Scanner Services from running programmatically by issui ng the
ADCAPI_StopService() C API. For more information, refer to the Motorola EMDK for C version documen tation.
IMPORTANT Disable MT2000 Scanner Services only when the MT20X0 is used as a mobile computing device.
