Honeywell MX9 Laptop User Manual


 
6 - 5
Application Configuration
The default Administrator Hotkey sequence is Shift+Ctrl+A.
Administrator mode allows access to all features on the device. When the hotkey is pressed to switch into Administrator mode, a
password prompt is displayed (if a password has been configured). A password must be entered within 30 seconds (and within
three tries) or the password prompt is removed and the device remains in end-user mode with the focus returned to the locked
application. Without entry of a valid password, the switch into Administrator mode will not occur.
The password prompt is displayed if a password has been configured. When the valid password is entered, the Administration
panel is displayed. When a valid password is not entered within 30 seconds, the user is returned to the System Panel.
If a password has not been configured, the Administrator panel is displayed.
Important: Before setting up multiple instances of the same application, make sure the targeted software application will allow
two instances to run at the same time.
Application Panel
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 MX9 reboots into Administrator mode. If a pass-
word has been set, but an application has not been specified, the user will be prompted for the password before entering
administration mode. The password prompt remains on the display until a valid password is entered.
Option Explanation
Filename Default is blank. Move the cursor to the Filename text box and either type the application path or
tap the Browse button (the … button). The standard Windows Browse dialog is displayed. After
selecting the application from the Browse dialog, tap OK.
Title Default is blank. Enter the Title to be associated with the application. The assumption is that
multiple copies of the same application may need unique titles in order to differentiate them in
the Switchpad.
Arguments Default is blank. Enter the command line parameters for the application in the Arguments text
box.
Order Default is 1. Enter the Order in which the application is to be loaded or presented to the end-
user. Applications are launched in lowest to highest number order and do not need to be
sequential.
