Operating System Overview

Operating System Overview

Zebra 4Sight XV7 comes pre-installed with either Microsoft Windows or Linux.
When secure boot is enabled, ensure all installed drivers are properly signed for operating with the secure boot. If your drivers are not properly signed to operate with secure boot, you might have driver issues (for example, driver issues with USB devices). See the documentation accompanying the operating system for more information.
Be aware that each end user is responsible for secure configuration, patch management, and overall security of the system. It is up to the end user to obtain and apply any necessary patches and updates that are made available through the update service offered by the operating system (for example, Windows Update).

Windows

If you have a Windows SKU, your Zebra XV7 is pre-installed with Microsoft Windows 11 IoT Enterprise 2024 (64-bit version). Zebra Technologies designed the Zebra 4Sight XV7 unit for a specific use (such as, creating and installing software to process images). You may only use the operating system and associated software on the unit for that use.
You may use other programs with the operating system as long as the other programs:
  • Directly support the manufacturer's specific use for the device, or
  • Provide system utilities, resource management, or anti-virus or similar protection.
Software that provides consumer or business tasks or processes might not run on the device. This includes email, word processing, spreadsheet, database, scheduling, and personal finance software. The device can use Remote Desktop Services to access such software running on a server.
If you acquired the operating system and associated software on the unit, or on a disc or other media, a genuine Certificate of Authenticity label with a genuine copy of the software identifies licensed software. To be valid, this label must be affixed to the device or included on or in Zebra's software packaging. If you receive the label separately, it is not valid. You should keep the label on the device or packaging to prove that you are licensed to use the operating system and associated software.
The Microsoft operating system and associated software was designed for systems that do not require fail-safe performance. You may not use the Microsoft operating system and associated software in any device or system in which a malfunction of the software would result in foreseeable risk of injury or death to any person. This includes operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, and air traffic control.

Linux

If you have a Linux SKU, your Zebra XV7 is pre-installed with a custom version of Linux (MIOS).
