FIPS Mode
Parameter # 736 (SSI # F1h E0h)
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 is a U.S. government computer security
standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. FIPS enabled scanners and cradles offer this secure
mode of operation.
To enable the FIPS mode of operation (disabled by default), scan the Enable FIPS barcode. The scanner
attempts to establish a secure session with the cradle to which it is connected. On success, the scanner
lights an amber LED on every trigger press to signal that all data will be transmitted over Bluetooth in a
secure fashion. On failure, the scanner will sound transmission failure error message on every attempt to
transmit data.
To disable the FIPS mode, scan the Disable FIPS barcode at any time.
Continuous Barcode Read
Parameter # 649 (SSI # F1h 89h)
Enable this to report every barcode while the trigger is pressed.

note Zebra strongly recommends enabling <bl_blue><em_Emphasis>Picklist Mode on page 10-118 with this
feature. Disabling Picklist Mode can cause accidental decodes when more than one barcode is in the
digital scanner's field of view.
