Rhino II Configuration  
The following features can be configured by the user. To modify the  
default settings, create a file named UtilConfig.cfg with the new  
settings and copy it in "/data/datalogic" folder using adb tool. Then  
restart the device.  
When the device is reset the default configuration is restored.  
For a detailed description of UtilConfig.cfg file format, refer to  
For further details on adb tool, refer to Appendix 3 – Adb Tool Usage  
Startup/Shutdown Modes  
The Rhino II has 3 modes of controlling Startup and Shutdown. Each  
mode controls how the Ignition Sense power connector wire (IGN)  
and the Rhino II’s front panel Power button (PWR) work together.  
Mode 1 (default)  
In the default mode (mode 1), IGN must be at a voltage greater than  
10VDC and PWR must be pressed and held for a specified duration  
to power up the VMC. To shut down the device, remove the positive  
voltage from IGN or press and hold the PWR button for a specified  
duration.  
Mode 0  
This mode allows IGN or PWR to control the Startup/Shutdown. To  
power up the VMC, connect IGN to positive voltage or press the PWR  
User’s Manual  
19  
       
Rhino II Configuration  
button. To shut down the VMC, disconnect IGN or press the PWR  
button. In Mode 0 you must use either IGN or PWR to control the  
VMC. You cannot use both of them.  
If the VMC is powered up via IGN, but powered down via  
PWR, it will immediately begin to power up again.  
NOTE  
Mode 3  
This mode is seldom used. The VMC powers up as soon as it is  
connected to a power source. Both IGN and PWR are ignored.  
Power off countdown  
When powered down via IGN, the VMC will displays a countdown  
screen advising the user the remaining time before the device shuts  
down. The shutdown time is controlled by the configuration file.

Screen Blanking  
You may need to blank the screen when your vehicle is in motion, a  
requirement in some countries. You can do it by applying a positive  
voltage to a designated COM port pin. You must use an external  
sensor that will either provide a positive voltage or close a relay  
when the vehicle moves.  
If you use a relay, the positive voltage from pin 9 of the selected  
COM port should be wired as input to the relay. The output from the  
sensor or relay should be wired to pin 1 (DCD) or pin 6 (DSR) of the  
selected COM port. The screen blanking cable from Datalogic (p/n  
94ACC0157) is wired to pin 9 (pink) and pin 6 (grey).

A software program or set of instructions programmed on a  
hardware device. It provides the necessary instructions for how the  
device communicates with the other computer hardware. Firmware

Glossary  
is typically stored in the flash ROM of a hardware device. While ROM  
is "read-only memory," flash ROM can be erased and rewritten  
because it is actually a type of flash memory.  
Flash Memory  
Non-volatile memory for storing application and configuration files.  
Host  
A computer that serves other mobile computers in a network,  
providing services such as network control, database access, special  
programs, supervisory programs, or programming languages.  
Laser  
Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.The laser is  
an intense light source. Light from a laser is all the same frequency,  
unlike the output of an incandescent bulb. Laser light is typically  
coherent and has a high energy density.  
Light Emitting Diode (LED)  
A low power electronic light source commonly used as an indicator  
light. It uses less power than an incandescent light bulb but more  
than a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).  
Parameter  
A variable that can have different values assigned to it.  
RAM  
Random Access memory. Data in RAM can be accessed in random  
order, and quickly written and read.  
RF  
Radio Frequency.

Glossary  
Scanner  
An electronic device used to scan barcode symbols and produce a  
digitized pattern that corresponds to the bars and spaces of the  
symbol. Its three main components are:  
Light source (laser or photoelectric cell) - illuminates a barcode.  
Photodetector - registers the difference in reflected light (more  
light reflected from spaces).  
Signal conditioning circuit - transforms optical detector output  
into a digitized bar pattern.  
SDK  
Software Development Kit.  
Symbology  
The structural rules and conventions for representing data within a  
particular barcode type (e.g. UPC/EAN, Code 39, PDF417, etc.).  
USB  
Universal Serial Bus. Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices  
(disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily  
connected to a computer. A "plug-and-play" interface, it allows a  
device to be added without an adapter card and without rebooting  
the computer (the latter is known as hot-plugging). The USB  
standard, developed by several major computer and  
telecommunications companies, supports data-transfer speeds up  
to 12 megabits per second, multiple data streams, and up to 127  
peripherals.  
WLAN  
A
Wireless Local Area Network links devices via  
a
wireless  
distribution method (typically spread-spectrum or OFDM radio), and  
usually provides a connection through an access point to the wider

internet. This gives users the mobility to move around within a local  
coverage area and still be connected to the network.  
WPAN  
A Wireless Personal Area Network is a personal area network - a  
network for interconnecting devices centered around an individual  
person's workspace - in which the connections are wireless.  
Typically, a wireless personal area network uses some technology  
that permits communication within about 10 meters - in other  
words, a very short range.
