The "SmartDocs" bar can customize this page to show only the features present on a particular Zebra device.
OSX, MX and Android version information for a device can be found in the Android Settings panel or by querying the device through ADB, EMDK or the MX CSP. More info.
The Power Key Manager (PowerKeyMgr) controls the functions displayed on the "Power Off" Menu, which appears after long-pressing the power key on the device. Depending on the device, such power-related functions can include Power off, Restart, Airplane Mode, Touch Panel, Safe Mode and other choices. Some Zebra products and devices also support a bug reporting feature, which is controlled by the Bug Report Manager.
Zebra Android devices support a Screen Lock Timeout (controlled by the DevAdmin CSP), which controls how long the device screen must remain off before a screen lock will appear when the display screen is turned back on. When the Power Key is used to turn the device off (as opposed letting the screen time-out) a screen lock can be required when the display screen is turned back on, even if the timeout was not reached. The PowerKeyMgr can enable or disable this functionality and control whether the device user can change this functionality using the Android Settings panel.
Note: The PowerKeyMgr controls only those features supported on a given device. Behavior of some features disabled by PowerKeyMgr varies by device. For example, a disabled "Airplane Mode" control on some devices is hidden, on others it's "grayed out," and on the MC18, MC33, MC40 and MC67 devices it appears normally but has no effect.
Controls whether the Airplane Mode control is accessible from the Power Off menu. When a device enters Airplane Mode, its Bluetooth, cellular and Wi-Fi radios are disabled; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi radios can be turned back on if desired by the user.
Note: Not supported in devices running Android 8.x Oreo or later. Display of a disabled "Airplane Mode" control varies by device. On some devices the control is hidden, on others it's "grayed out," and on the MC18, MC33, MC40 and MC67 devices it appears normally but has no effect.

Controls whether the Safe Mode control is available in the Power-off Menu on devices that support this option. Safe Mode is typically used to perform troubleshooting operations that might be impeded by certain applications or services that would normally start when booting the device normally. Since booting into Safe Mode could render the operation of the device insecure and likely would impact the ability of the device to perform its production functions, it desirable under most circumstances to prevent device users from booting into Safe Mode.
Note: On TC20/TC25 devices, available only when running Android 8.x Oreo and higher.
