Charging the Battery

Before using the device for the first time, charge the main battery until the green Charging/Notification light
emitting diode (LED) remains lit. To charge the device use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power
supply. For information about the accessories available for the device see Accessories for more information.

The battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately 2.5 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in
approximately three hours.

NOTE: In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge lasts for approximately
14 hours of use.
To achieve the best fast charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room
temperature with the device in sleep mode.

Charge batteries in temperatures from 5°C to 40°C (°F to 104°F). The device or accessory always performs
battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37°C (+98°F))
the device or accessory may for small periods of time alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep
the battery at acceptable temperatures. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to
abnormal temperatures via its LED and a notification appears on the display.

To charge the main battery:

1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.

2. Insert the device into a cradle or attach to a cable. The device turns on and begins charging. The
Charging/Notification LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged.

Data Capture

Introduction
The device supports data capture using:
• integrated imager
• integrated camera
• RS507 Hands-free imager
• RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
• DS3678 Digital Scanner
• LI3678 Bluetooth Linear Imager Scanner
• DS2278 Digital Scanner.

Imaging
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its
memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from
the image. With a 2D imager, the device has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear,
postal, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming cross-hair and dot aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.

Digital Camera
The device with an integrated camera based barcode scanning solution has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of barcode symbologies, including the most popular linear,
postal, QR, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
• Cross-hair reticle for easy point-and-shoot operation.
• Picklist mode to decode a particular barcode from many in the field of view.

The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a barcode, and executes
state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.

136
Linear Imager
The device with an integrated linear imager has the following features:
• Reading a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular 1-D code types.
• Intuitive aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.

The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its memory,
and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the image.

Operational Modes

The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by
pressing the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its field of
view. The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes a
barcode.

NOTE: To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.

• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a barcode when more than one barcode
is in the device’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the required
barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple barcodes and
manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or 2D).

NOTE: To enable Basic MultiBarcode Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.

• Basic MultiBarcode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode a specific number of
unique barcodes within its field of view. The device remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan
button, or until it decodes all the barcodes. Available on integrated SE2100 or SE4710 imagers only.
• The device attempts to scan the programmed number of unique barcodes (from 2 through 10).
• If there are duplicate barcodes (same symbology type and data), only one of the duplicate barcodes is
decoded and the remainder are ignored. If the label has two duplicate barcodes plus another two
different barcodes, a maximum of three barcodes will be decoded from that label; one will be ignored as
a duplicate.
• Barcodes can be of multiple symbology types and still be acquired together. For example, if the
specified quantity for a Basic MultiBarcode scan is four, two barcodes can be symbology type Code 128
and the other two can be symbology type Code 39.
• If the specified number of unique barcodes is not initially in view of the device, the device will not decode
any data until the device is moved to capture the additional barcode(s) or time out occurs. If the device
field of view contains a number of barcodes greater than the specified quantity, the device randomly
decodes barcode(s) until the specified number of unique barcodes is reached. For example, if the count
is set to two and eight barcodes are in the field of view, the device decodes the first two unique barcodes
it sees, returning the data in random order.
• Basic MultiBarcode Mode does not support concatenated barcodes.

Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode, with a few quick trial efforts to master it.
However, consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
• Range: Scanners decode best over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the barcode. This range varies according to barcode density and scanning device optics. Scan within range
for quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents decodes. Move the scanner
closer and further away to find the right working range for the barcodes being scanned.
• Angle: Scanning angle is important for quick decodes. When the illumination/flash reflects directly back into
the imager, the specular reflection can blind/saturate the imager. To avoid this, scan the barcode so that the
beam does not bounce directly back. Do not scan at too sharp an angle; the scanner needs to collect
scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice quickly shows what tolerances to
work within.
• Hold the device farther away for larger symbols.
• Move the device closer for symbols with bars that are close together.

NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the app and device configuration. An app may use different scanning
procedures from the one listed above.

Scanning with Internal Imager

To read a barcode, a scan-enabled app is required. The device contains the DataWedge app that allows the
user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data, and display the barcode content.

To scan with the internal imager:

1. Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

Bluetooth
Bluetooth devices can communicate without wires, using frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) radio
frequency (RF) to transmit and receive data in the 2.4 GHz Industry Scientific and Medical (ISM) band

165
 (802.15.1). Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (10 m (32.8 ft))
communication and low power consumption.

Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (for example, files, appointments, and tasks)
with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.

The device supports Bluetooth Low Energy. Bluetooth Low Energy is targeted at applications in the healthcare,
fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. It provides reduced power consumption and cost while
maintaining standard Bluetooth range.

Adaptive Frequency Hopping

Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with
Bluetooth voice. All devices in the piconet (Bluetooth network) must be AFH-capable in order for AFH to work.
There is no AFH when connecting and discovering devices. Avoid making Bluetooth connections and
discoveries during critical 802.11b communications. AFH for Bluetooth consists of four main sections:
• Channel Classification - A method of detecting an interference on a channel-by-channel basis, or
pre-defined channel mask.
• Link Management - Coordinates and distributes the AFH information to the rest of the Bluetooth network.
• Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively reducing the number of hopping channels.
• Channel Maintenance - A method for periodically re-evaluating the channels.

When AFH is enabled, the Bluetooth radio “hops around” (instead of through) the 802.11b high-rate channels.
AFH coexistence allows enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.

The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5
mW and the expected range is 10 m (32.8 ft). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain
due to power and device differences, and whether in open space or closed office space.

NOTE: It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b operation is required.

Security

The current Bluetooth specification defines security at the link level. Application-level security is not specified.
This allows application developers to define security mechanisms tailored to their specific need. Link-level
security occurs between devices, not users, while application-level security can be implemented on a per-user
basis. The Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedures required to authenticate
devices, and if needed, encrypt the data flowing on the link between the devices. Device authentication is a
mandatory feature of Bluetooth while link encryption is optional.

Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key used to authenticate the devices
and create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being
paired generates the initialization key. The PIN is never sent over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack
responds with no key when a key is requested (it is up to user to respond to the key request event).
Authentication of Bluetooth devices is based-upon a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allows for a
PIN or passkey used to create other 128-bit keys used for security and encryption. The encryption key is
derived from the link key used to authenticate the pairing devices. Also worthy of note is the limited range and
fast frequency hopping of the Bluetooth radios that makes long-distance eavesdropping difficult.

Recommendations are:
• Perform pairing in a secure environment

166
 • Keep PIN codes private and do not store the PIN codes in the device
• Implement application-level security.

Bluetooth Profiles

The device supports the Bluetooth services listed in the table below:

Table 12 Bluetooth Profiles

Profile Description
Service Discovery Protocol Handles the search for known and specific services as well as general
(SDP) services.
Serial Port Profile (SPP) Allows use of RFCOMM protocol to emulate serial cable connection
between two Bluetooth peer devices. For example, connecting the
device to a printer.
Object Push Profile (OPP) Allows the device to push and pull objects to and from a push server.
Advanced Audio Distribution Allows the device to stream stereo-quality audio to a wireless headset or
Profile (A2DP) wireless stereo speakers.
Audio/Video Remote Control Allows the device to control A/V equipment to which a user has access.
Profile (AVRCP) It may be used in concert with A2DP.
Personal Area Network (PAN) Allows the use of Bluetooth Network Encapsulation Protocol to provide
L3 networking capabilities over a Bluetooth link. Only PANU role is
supported.
Human Interface Device Profile Allows Bluetooth keyboards, pointing devices, gaming devices and
(HID) remote monitoring devices to connect to the device.
Headset Profile (HSP) Allows a hands-free device, such as a Bluetooth headset, to place and
receive calls on the device.
Hands-Free Profile (HFP) Allows car hands-free kits to communicate with the device in the car.
Phone Book Access Profile Allows exchange of Phone Book Objects between a car kit and a mobile
(PBAP) device to allow the car kit to display the name of the incoming caller;

completed using the Bluetooth radio, but requires information from the
OOB mechanism. Using OOB with NFC enables pairing when devices
simply get close, rather than requiring a lengthy discovery process.
Symbol Serial Interface (SSI) Allows for communication with Bluetooth Imager.
Generic Attribute Profile (GATT) Provides profile discovery and description services for Bluetooth Low
Energy protocol. It defines how attributes are grouped together into sets
to form services.
Dial Up Networking (DUN) Provides a standard to access the Internet and other dial-up services
over Bluetooth.

Troubleshooting

Introduction
This chapter includes instructions on cleaning and storing the device, and provides troubleshooting solutions
for potential problems during operation.

Maintaining the Device

For trouble-free service, observe the following tips when using the device:
• Do not scratch the screen of the device. When working with the device use the supplied stylus or
plastic-tipped pens intended for use with a touch-sensitive screen. Never use an actual pen or pencil or
other sharp object on the surface of the device screen.
• The touch-sensitive screen of the device is glass. Do not drop the device or subject it to strong impact.
• Protect the device from temperature extremes. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and

soft cloth moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.
• Periodically replace the rechargeable battery to ensure maximum battery life and product performance.
Battery life depends on individual usage patterns.

Display Best Practices

Image Retention

Image retention may occur when a static image continuously displays for extended periods of time. A user may
see a faint remnant of the image even after a new image displays. To prevent image retention:
• set the display to turn off after a few minutes of idle time.
• rotate background images on a periodic basis.
• turn off the display when the device in not in use.
• use a screen saver with the following characteristics:
• background color set to black
• use a small moving image (approximately 2% of the display size).
• move the image randomly across the screen
• screen saver should be active as long as the static image is used.

 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Battery Safety Guidelines

The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals.
Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a non-commercial environment.
• Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in the user's guide.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between 41°F and
+104°F (5°C and +40°C).
• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may present a
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a
battery or a charger, contact Zebra support.
• For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products that
bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
• Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery to
overheat.
• Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery terminals.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to
water or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle or
near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or dryer.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
• Please follow local regulations to promptly dispose of used re-chargeable batteries.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Seek medical advice immediately if a battery has been swallowed.
• In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has
been made, wash the affected area with large amounts of water and seek medical advice.
• If you suspect damage to your equipment or battery, contact Zebra support to arrange for inspection.

Cleaning Instructions
CAUTION: Always wear eye protection.
Read warning label on alcohol product before using.
If you have to use any other solution for medical reasons please contact the Global Customer Support Center for more in-
formation.

WARNING: Avoid exposing this product to contact with hot oil or other flammable liquids. If such exposure occurs, unplug
the device and clean the product immediately in accordance with these guidelines.

Approved Cleanser Active Ingredients

100% of the active ingredients in any cleaner must consist of one or some combination of the following:
isopropyl alcohol, bleach/sodium hypochlorite1 (see important note below), hydrogen peroxide, ammonium
chloride, or mild dish soap.

IMPORTANT: Use pre-moistened wipes and do not allow liquid cleaner to pool.

1When
using sodium hypochlorite (bleach) based products, always follow the manufacturer’s recommended instructions:

212
 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

use gloves during application and remove the residue afterwards with a damp alcohol cloth or a cotton swab to avoid
prolonged skin contact while handling the device.

Due to the powerful oxidizing nature of sodium hypochlorite, the metal surfaces on the device are prone to oxidation
(corrosion) when exposed to this chemical in the liquid form (including wipes). In the event that these type of disinfectants
come in contact with metal on the device, prompt removal with an alcohol-dampened cloth or cotton swab after the cleaning
step is critical.

Harmful Ingredients

The following chemicals are known to damage the plastics on the device and should not come in contact with
the device: acetone; ketones; ethers; aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons; aqueous or alcoholic alkaline
solutions; ethanolamine; toluene; trichloroethylene; benzene; carbolic acid and TB-lysoform.

Many vinyl gloves contain phthalate additives, which are often not recommended for medical use and are
known to be harmful to the housing of the device.

Device Cleaning Instructions

Do not apply liquid directly to the device. Dampen a soft cloth or use pre-moistened wipes. Do not wrap the
device in the cloth or wipe, instead gently wipe the unit. Be careful not to let liquid pool around the display
window or other places. Before use, allow the unit to air dry.

NOTE: For thorough cleaning, it is recommended to first remove all accessory attachments, such as hand straps or cradle
cups, from the mobile device and to clean them separately.

Special Cleaning Notes

The device should not be handled while wearing vinyl gloves containing phthalates, or before hands are
washed to remove contaminant residue after gloves are removed.

If products containing any of the harmful ingredients listed above are used prior to handling the device, such as
hand sanitizer that contain ethanolamine, hands must be completely dry before handling the device to prevent
damage to the device.

IMPORTANT: If the battery connectors are exposed to cleaning agents, thoroughly wipe off as much of the chemical as
possible and clean with an alcohol wipe. It is also recommended to install the battery in the terminal prior to cleaning and
disinfecting the device to help minimize buildup on the connectors.

When using cleaning/disinfectant agents on the device, it is important to follow the directions prescribed by the
cleaning/disinfectant agent manufacturer.

Cleaning Materials Required

• Alcohol wipes
• Lens tissue
• Cotton-tipped applicators
• Isopropyl alcohol
• Can of compressed air with a tube.

213
 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Cleaning Frequency

The cleaning frequency is at the customer’s discretion due to the varied environments in which the mobile
devices are used and may be cleaned as frequently as required. When dirt is visible, it is recommended to
clean the mobile device to avoid build up of particles which make the device more difficult to clean later on.

For consistency and optimum image capture, it is recommended to clean the camera window periodically
especially when used in environments prone to dirt or dust.

Cleaning the Device

Housing

Using the alcohol wipes, wipe the housing including buttons.

Display

The display can be wiped down with the alcohol wipes, but care should be taken not to allow any pooling of
liquid around the edges of the display. Immediately dry the display with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to prevent
streaking.

material such as eyeglasses.

Connector Cleaning
To clean the connectors:

1. Remove the main battery from mobile computer.

2. Dip the cotton portion of the cotton-tipped applicator in isopropyl alcohol.

3. Rub the cotton portion of the cotton-tipped applicator back-and-forth across the connector. Do not leave
any cotton residue on the connector.

4. Repeat at least three times.

5. Use the cotton-tipped applicator dipped in alcohol to remove any grease and dirt near the connector area.

6. Use a dry cotton-tipped applicator and repeat steps 4 through 6.

CAUTION: Do not point nozzle at yourself and others, ensure the nozzle or tube is away from your face.

7. Spray compressed air on the connector area by pointing the tube/nozzle about ½ inch away from the
surface.

8. Inspect the area for any grease or dirt, repeat if required.

214
 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Cleaning Cradle Connectors

To clean the connectors on a cradle:

1. Remove the DC power cable from the cradle.

2. Dip the cotton portion of the cotton-tipped applicator in isopropyl alcohol.

3. Rub the cotton portion of the cotton-tipped applicator along the pins of the connector. Slowly move the
applicator back-and-forth from one side of the connector to the other. Do not leave any cotton residue on
the connector.

4. All sides of the connector should also be rubbed with the cotton-tipped applicator.

CAUTION: Do not point nozzle at yourself and others, ensure the nozzle or tube is pointed away from your face.

5. Spray compressed air in the connector area by pointing the tube/nozzle about ½ inch away from the
surface.

6. Remove any lint left by the cotton-tipped applicator.

7. If grease and other dirt can be found on other areas of the cradle, use a lint-free cloth and alcohol to
remove.

8. Allow at least 10 to 30 minutes (depending on ambient temperature and humidity) for the alcohol to air dry
before applying power to cradle.
