Adding Scan to Config Profiles
A Scan to Config Profile is used to configure network settings, device
properties, and registry keys on a mobile device with an Enabler. Once you
have configured the profile from the Avalanche Console, you can print the
barcodes and then use a device to scan the barcodes.
To create a Scan to Config Profile:
1 From the Profiles tab, click Add Profile.
The Create Profile dialog box appears.
2 Select Scan To Config Profile from the drop‐down list and type the name
of the profile in the Profile Name text box.
3 Click OK.
The profile is created and can be enabled and configured.
Configuring Settings
When you create a Scan to Config Profile, you can configure the maximum
barcode length and network settings such as the IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway. You also have the option of using the network settings contained in
a Network Profile.
You can also configure a passcode for the profile. The passcode is used to
encrypt the barcode data. The mobile device user must enter the same
passcode when they are using scan to configure so that the Enabler can
decrypt the barcode data when it is scanned. If the user does not input the
correct passcode at the device, then the barcode data is not decrypted and the
scan registers as invalid.
When a mobile device scans the barcodes created from a Scan to Config
Profile, the mobile device receives the network settings configured within
that barcode.
NOTE WEP key rotation is not supported.
