CHAPTER 3 CONFIGURATION Overview This chapter describes how to set up and configure the MK4000 applications, communications, and network settings which include parameters such as the device name, internet browser settings, date and time, and several other key settings. Configure these settings remotely using the System Configuration Manager (SCM), or locally on the MK4000 using the Control Panel. These settings are saved in the configuration registry file (mkconfig.reg) in the MK4000 Application folder to maintain them across cold boot cycles. For information on using the Control Panel, refer to the Microsoft Applications for Mobile and Win CE 5.0 User Guide. System Configuration Manager The System Configuration Manager (SCM) is a Windows®-based utility that runs on a host computer and creates/edits an MK4000 configuration file (mkconfig.reg). Load this file onto the MK4000 and reboot the MK4000 to set configuration parameters for the device. The configurable options for the MK4000 are defined in an XML file that is available from Support Central at http://www.zebra.com/support. . SCM is also available at Support Central. SCM eliminates the potential user errors that occur when manually editing registry settings. File Types SCM uses three types of files: • Symbol Configuration Template (.SCT) files are XML files that define the configurable parameters for a device. • Registry Configuration Service Provider XML files for device provisioning. • CAB Provisioning Format (.CPF) file which is a .CAB archive that contains the provisioning XML. This file is downloaded to the MK4000 and merged upon a cold boot.

CHAPTER 3 CONFIGURATION
Overview
This chapter describes how to set up and configure the MK4000 applications, communications, and network
settings which include parameters such as the device name, internet browser settings, date and time, and
several other key settings.
Configure these settings remotely using the System Configuration Manager (SCM), or locally on the MK4000
using the Control Panel. These settings are saved in the configuration registry file (mkconfig.reg) in the
MK4000 Application folder to maintain them across cold boot cycles. For information on using the Control
Panel, refer to the
Microsoft Applications for Mobile and Win CE 5.0 User Guide
.
System Configuration Manager
The System Configuration Manager (SCM) is a Windows
®
-based utility that runs on a host computer and
creates/edits an MK4000 configuration file (mkconfig.reg). Load this file onto the MK4000 and reboot the
MK4000 to set configuration parameters for the device. The configurable options for the MK4000 are defined in
an XML file that is available from Support Central at
. SCM is also available at Support Central.
SCM eliminates the potential user errors that occur when manually editing registry settings.
File Types
SCM uses three types of files:
Symbol Configuration Template (.SCT) files are XML files that define the configurable parameters for a
device.
Registry Configuration Service Provider XML files for device provisioning.
CAB Provisioning Format (.CPF) file which is a .CAB archive that contains the provisioning XML. This file
is downloaded to the MK4000 and merged upon a cold boot.
