Host Computer.
A computer that serves other terminals in a network, providing such services as computation,
database access, supervisory programs and network control.
I
IDE.
Intelligent drive electronics. Refers to the solid-state hard drive type.
IEC.
International Electrotechnical Commission. This international agency regulates laser safety by specifying
various laser operation classes based on power output during operation.
IEC (825) Class 1.
This is the lowest power IEC laser classification. Conformity is ensured through a software
restriction of 120 seconds of laser operation within any 1000 second window and an automatic laser
shutdown if the scanner's oscillating mirror fails.
IEEE Address.

MAC Address
.
Input/Output Ports.
I/O ports are primarily dedicated to passing information into or out of the terminal’s
memory. Series 9000 mobile computers include Serial and USB ports.
Interleaved 2 of 5.
A binary bar code symbology representing character pairs in groups of five bars and five
interleaved spaces. Interleaving provides for greater information density. The location of wide elements
(bar/spaces) within each group determines which characters are encoded. This continuous code type
uses no intercharacter spaces. Only numeric (0 to 9) and START/STOP characters may be encoded.
Intercharacter Gap.
The space between two adjacent bar code characters in a discrete code.
Interleaved Bar Code.
A bar code in which characters are paired together, using bars to represent the first
character and the intervening spaces to represent the second.
Internet Protocol Address.
See
IP
.
IOCTL.
Input/Output Control.
I/O Ports.
interface The connection between two devices, defined by common physical characteristics, signal
characteristics, and signal meanings. Types of interfaces include RS-232 and PCMCIA.
IP.
Internet Protocol. The IP part of the TCP/IP communications protocol. IP implements the network layer (layer
3) of the protocol, which contains a network address and is used to route a message to a different network
or subnetwork. IP accepts “packets” from the layer 4 transport protocol (TCP or UDP), adds its own header
to it and delivers a “datagram” to the layer 2 data link protocol. It may also break the packet into fragments
to support the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the network.
IP Address.
(Internet Protocol address) The address of a computer attached to an IP network. Every client and
server station must have a unique IP address. A 32-bit address used by a computer on a IP network. Client
workstations have either a permanent address or one that is dynamically assigned to them each session.
IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example, 204.171.64.2.
IPX/SPX.
Internet Package Exchange/Sequential Packet Exchange. A communications protocol for Novell. IPX
is Novell’s Layer 3 protocol, similar to XNS and IP, and used in NetWare networks. SPX is Novell's version
of the Xerox SPP protocol.
