F

Flash Disk. An additional megabyte of non-volatile memory for storing application and configuration files.

Flash Memory. Flash memory is responsible for storing the system firmware and is non-volatile. If the system power is

interrupted the data is not be lost.

FTP. See File Transfer Protocol.

H

Hard Reset. See Cold Boot.

Host Computer. A computer that serves other terminals in a network, providing such services as computation, database

access, supervisory programs and network control.

Hz. Hertz; A unit of frequency equal to one cycle per second.

I

IDE. Intelligent drive electronics. Refers to the solid-state hard drive type.

IEC. International Electrotechnical Commission. This international agency regulates laser safety by specifying various laser

operation classes based on power output during operation.

IEC (825) Class 1. This is the lowest power IEC laser classification. Conformity is ensured through a software restriction of

120 seconds of laser operation within any 1000 second window and an automatic laser shutdown if the scanner's
oscillating mirror fails.

IEEE Address. See MAC Address.

Input/Output Ports. I/O ports are primarily dedicated to passing information into or out of the terminal’s memory. Series

9000 mobile computers include Serial and USB ports.

Intercharacter Gap. The space between two adjacent bar code characters in a discrete code.

Interleaved 2 of 5. A binary bar code symbology representing character pairs in groups of five bars and five interleaved

spaces. Interleaving provides for greater information density. The location of wide elements (bar/spaces) within each

group determines which characters are encoded. This continuous code type uses no intercharacter spaces. Only

numeric (0 to 9) and START/STOP characters may be encoded.

Interleaved Bar Code. A bar code in which characters are paired together, using bars to represent the first character and

the intervening spaces to represent the second.

Interleaved 2 of 5. A binary bar code symbology representing character pairs in groups of five bars and five interleaved

spaces. Interleaving provides for greater information density. The location of wide elements (bar/spaces) within each
