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.
Choose the following:
Enabled - Establishes a secure session between the scanner and cradle when connected.
Disabled - FIPS standards are not used.
When enabled, the scanner lights a yellow LED on each trigger pull to indicate that all data is transmitted securely over Bluetooth. On failure, the scanner sounds a transmission error message on each attempt to transmit data.
