Device Diagnostic Tool

Zebra’s free Device Diagnostic Tool (DDT) quickly tests the hardware, battery, software, and connectivity on most Zebra Android mobile computers to determine device health and functionality. This powerful, user-friendly tool can quickly troubleshoot device issues that users can resolve themselves in the field, limiting downtime and unnecessary returns for repair. If your device does need repair, running the DDT test will help isolate the problem when you seek additional support.
