Misc

• Added support for local scanning as feature with limited support. Activate the feature at: System > Firmware Customization > Features > Scanner support. This has been tested with a Canon LiDE 120 scanner. 

  More...

  Parameter	Scanner support
  Registry	product.partitions41.enabled
  Value	enabled / disabled
  This must be enabled for the feature to become active and the remaining keys to be valid.

  Parameter	Enable scanner daemon
  Registry	devices.scanner.daemon
  Range	[none] [scanbd] [saned]
  The key determines the daemon to be started. scanbd is necessary for handling buttons on the scanner. It runs saned when necessary (and the scanner is available). saned alone provides scanning functionality to local and remote applications (xsane, scanimage, ..). If none is selected the system can still be used as a client for remote scanner servers (using xsane or scanimage).

  Parameter	Allowed remote clients
  Registry	devices.scanner.allowed_clients
  The key may contain a space-separated list of hosts and networks (CIDR > notation) that are allowed to connect to a local server.

  Parameter	Remote scanners
  Registry	devices.scannerclient.remote
  This may contain a space-separated list of remote scanner servers to be used by local applications (xsane, scanimage). It is only relevant if no local server is configured.

• The remaining keys influence scanner button handling. For each button there is an instance of the devices.scanner.scanbd.action% template.

• In order to keep scanner button handling flexible the default handling may be replaced by custom scripts. Details of the default handling are listed at the end of this section. 

  More...

  Parameter	Scanner button name
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.button
  This contains the (symbolic) name of the button. There are currently four predefined instances of the template where the value is 'file', 'scan', 'copy', and 'email' respectively. (These refer to the buttons on a Canon LiDE 120 from left to right where 'file' may be labeled 'PDF')

  Parameter	Allow while nobody is logged in
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.allow_lockpanel_logged_out
  Value	enabled / disabled
  If this is set to false, the button is ignored when nobody is logged in (only > relevant when local logon is configured)

  Parameter	Allow while screen is locked
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.allow_lockpanel_logged_in
  Value	enabled / disabled
  When this is set to false, the button is ignored while the screen is locked.

  Parameter	scanbd custom action
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.custom_cmd
  This may contain a custom button handling command. The value is empty by default. If it is not, the value will be passed to "bash -c .." and the default button handling will not be effective. The consequence is that entering some space characters results in disabling the button.

  Parameter	Directory
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.directory
  Value	/tmp
  Set the target directory for scan results.

  Parameter	Format
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.format
  Range	[pnm] [tiff] [png] [jpeg]
  Determines the image format (passed as argument to scanimage).

  Parameter	Color mode
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.mode
  Value	[Color] [Gray] [Lineart]
  Determines the color mode (passed as argument to scanimage).

  Parameter	Resolution in dpi
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.resolution
  Range	[75] [100] [150] [300] [600] [1200] [2400] [4800]
  Determines the resolution (passed as argument to scanimage).

  Parameter	Brightness
  Registry	devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.brightness
  Value	0
  Determines the brightness (passed as argument to scanimage).

• Default button handling script: There is a default button handling script /etc/scanbd/scripts/action. It might be used as a potential starting point for custom button handling. The script handles the four buttons of a Canon LiDE 120 in the following ways:
  • file results in a PDF document that contains a series of pages where each page contains a scan result acquired with scanimage according to the settings. This needs user interaction on the local machine's desktop.
  • scan results in an image file that is silently created and stored according to the settings.
  • copy makes the script use scanimage according to the settings, convert the resulting image to PDF and send it to the default printer. This obviously requires that a printer is configured.
  • email just results in xsane being started. The following settings are not respected in this case:
    • devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.directory
    • devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.format
    • devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.mode
    • devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.resolution
    • devices.scanner.scanbd.action%.brightness

TC Setup (Java)

• Updated TC Setup to version 5.9.11.
• Added an additional local administrator access to IGEL setup. The local administrator password is configurable at Security > Password setup page. The page permissions are configurable at Accessories > Setup > Setup Administrator Permissions setup page.
• Reworked Accessories > Commands and User Interface > Hotkeys > Commands setup pages.
• Reworked Storage Hotplug setup page.

Remote Management

• Added support for UMS File Transfer Status.

• Added a new configuration to prevent a user from canceling UMS actions like firmware update, reboot, shutdown, etc. through the UMS notification dialog. 

  More...

  Parameter	Allow user to cancel UMS actions
  Registry	userinterface.rmagent.cancel_usermessage
  Value	enabled / disabled
