Editing Properties

Some of the pre-defined properties (and all of the custom properties) on AIDC and Android devices support editing of custom values. When you change the value of a property, the new value is downloaded to the device the next time it connects to the server.

•For Android devices, custom properties can be edited from the customproperties.prf file and uploaded to a device, from the Device Details screen, or with a custom properties payload. For information on custom properties payloads, see Custom Properties Payload.

•For AIDC mobile devices, custom properties can be edited either for an individual device from the Device Details screen, using a mobile device profile, or using a Scan to Config profile. For information on using a profile to edit properties, see Adding Mobile Device Custom Properties or Creating a Scan to Config Profile depending on the profile type you want to use.
