4. After changing the Spectrum24DS.reg file, copy the file onto the mobile computer into the
Platform using ActiveSync and overwriting the old file. Then, cold boot the mobile computer
for the changes to take effect.
Cache the Password until a Warm Boot
Cache the password until a warm boot is the default setting. A timeout value can also be set in the
registry. The timeout forces the user to enter the username and password after a power-on if the
device had not gone through the LEAP authentication processes after the set period of time. Normally,
the device goes through the LEAP authentication process at every power-up and every time it roams
between APs.
The timeout setting can be set in minutes using hexadecimal in the registry file. The default setting
of zero disables the timeout feature. To change the timeout setting, edit the registry file using a text
editor (e.g., Notepad) as follows:
1. Ensure the “LCachePwd” value is set to dword:1.
LCachePwd = dword:1
2. If a timeout is desired, change the LTimeoutMinutes value from 00000000 to a desired value.
Examples are provided in the registry file. The following example is for 240 minutes which
is represented as 000000F0 in hexadecimal.
LTimeoutMinutes = dword:000000F0
3. Ensure that the UNAME and UPwd lines are commented out by putting a semicolon at the
beginning of each line.
4. After these changes are made to the Spectrum24DS.reg file, the file must be copied onto
the terminal. Copy the file into the Platform folder of the device using ActiveSync,
overwriting the old file. Once this is done, cold boot the mobile computer for the changes to
take effect.
