Each profile is associated with a script within the solution. The policy also manages the default profile buttons, shortcut number, access control number, scan settings, and eSF applications associated with each profile. The device policy is generally configured near the end of the solution development process, since existing scripts are assigned to profiles. To manage the device policy associated with the solution, double‑click devicePolicy.ldd in the src\conf\ folder of the project in the Package Explorer pane. The Device Policy Editor appears in the Editor pane. To add a new profile, click New, type the key for the new profile, and then click Create. To edit an existing profile, select an item in the Device Profiles list. To delete a profile, select it in the Device Profiles list, and then click Remove. A device policy contains a separate sub‑policy for each device class and for software clients. Select a device class from the Device Group list to access the sub‑policy for each, or select Software to access the sub‑policy for software clients. Notes: • Each sub‑policy includes unique settings for Name, Task, No Scan, Profile buttons, Shortcut Number, Access Control Number, and Settings. Values are shown for only the currently selected Device Group.
