Nordic ID HH83/HH85
User Guide
Version 1.3
NORDIC ID WEDGE SERVICE
Nordic ID Wedge Service application provides wedge functionality for Nordic ID HH8x, so
that the code of the RFID tags and barcodes scanned are typed as a keyboard input.
We suggest enabling the “Automatic start” function of NUR Wedge Settings in Nordic ID
HH83 Barcode variant, if you are not using an app which was developed using the NUR API.
That way, any existing 3
rd
party application (text editors, spreadsheets, web forms, etc) can straightaway
use the barcode scanning as a keyboard input.
NORDIC ID APP CENTER
The Nordic ID HH83/HH85 is an Android device designed for professional use. GMS
(Google Mobile Services) are not part of Nordic ID Android OS, promoting greater privacy
and security of personal information by preventing location tracking and data collection.
As Google Play Store is not available in Nordic ID HH83/HH85 to prevent installation of
unauthorized 3rd party applications, Nordic ID delivers the Nordic ID HH83/HH85 with a customized
app repository: Nordic ID App Center, based on the open source Android app repository F-Droid.
Nordic ID App Center enables the installation of 3rd party apps included in the selected repositories and
keeps them updated. By default, the catalogue of apps in Nordic ID App Center include two repositories:
•
Nordic ID repository, which includes the essential apps for Nordic ID HH83/HH85 devices, such as
Nordic ID RFID Demo or Nordic ID Wedge.
•
F-Droid repository, a wide catalogue of Open Source Software including web browsers, pdf readers,
maps and navigation, etc. All of them being secure apps without malware or virus.
With Nordic ID App Center, the user has full control of the available repositories and can add new ones
to extend the number of available apps.
Advanced users can also create their own app repository (
https://f-droid.org/en/tutorials/create-repo/
and upload their own Android apps, to grant the users with easy access to them, as this configuration can
be exported and restored on any other device (see section 2.5).
