About Language Provisioning

You are prompted to select a language provision when the computer starts for the first time. It may take up to 15 minutes to load your language. Once loaded, your selected language will persist through all boot scenarios (warm, cold, or clean).
Make sure you select the correct language before you tap Provision. If you need to change the language provisioning, you must reinstall the operating system and restart the computer. When the computer restarts, select your new language.

About the Battery

The CN51 uses a Model 1015AB01 battery as its main power source. The battery has a 14.4 Watt hour capacity. Several factors determine the life of your battery, such as display brightness, display timeout, input devices, extreme temperatures, and your usage.
Fully charge the battery before you use the CN51. When you change the battery, the computer automatically goes into a power-off state and then cold boots.
Caution: The battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it above 100 ºC (212 ºF) or incinerate it. Dispose of used batteries promptly. Keep away from children.
Contact your Intermec representative for replacement batteries.

Charge the Battery

Make sure you fully charge the battery (Model 1015AB01) before you use your CN51. You can charge the battery before or after you install it in the CN51. A fully discharged battery charges in approximately 6 hours.
Insert the battery into a quad battery charger, a single dock, or a
multidock, or attach external power to the CN51 with the battery installed.
The battery is fully charged when the battery status LED shows a steady green.

DRAFT

About the Phone

Phone features on the computer include a speaker and a microphone. You can also use a Bluetooth headset or hands-free kit. The phone feature is enabled by default.
The WAN radio in your computer determines the supported network types:
If your computer includes the UMTS/HSPA+ WAN radio, you can
connect to UMTS networks in all regions supporting this technology.
If your computer includes the Flexible Network Radio, you can
connect to CDMA or UMTS networks in all regions that support these technologies. The Flexible Network Radio is a software-defined radio (SDR) that can be configured for CDMA or UMTS depending on your wireless communication needs.
Intermec currently supports these CDMA network carriers:
Sprint (United States only)
Verizon (United States only)
For other carriers, contact Intermec Product Support.
After you turn on the phone and activate service with your wireless carrier, you can customize the phone features and network settings.
Note: Both WAN radios support Network Information and Time Zone (NITZ) messages to automatically set the system time.

Activate the UMTS Phone

You use a SIM card to activate the UMTS phone on the CN51. You can purchase the SIM card from your network provider.
1 Press to turn off the CN51.
2 Disconnect the handstrap from the top of the computer.
3 Push forward on the battery release tab until the battery releases,
and then lift the battery away from the computer.

Activate the CDMA Phone

To activate the CDMA phone in your mobile computer, you need to contact your wireless carrier and set up an account.
You also need to provide the carrier with the Mobile Equipment Identifier (MEID) for the computer. You can find the MEID:
on a label located in the battery compartment.
on the outside of the computer shipping box.
Note: For the CDMA phone, settings are permanently stored in the WAN radio after activation. CDMA settings persist through a cold boot.
The activation process is slightly different for each CDMA carrier. Your carrier sales contact and an Intermec representative can guide you through the process. In general, you activate the CDMA phone as follows:
1 Contact your wireless provider and give the provider the MEID for
the computer.
2 If your carrier is Sprint, reboot the computer. As soon as the Sprint
network detects your phone, Hands-Free Activation (HFA) begins, and a series of notification messages appear. When activation is complete, a completion message appears and the WAN radio reboots. The phone is ready to use.
If your carrier is Verizon, tap Start > Phone, enter *228 on the phone keypad, and press Talk. After a short wait, a message appears, confirming either success or failure of the activation. After successful activation, the phone is ready to use.
3 (Optional) If you plan to use the network for data connections
(such as browsing the web), you should enable automatic configuration of carrier settings in Intermec Settings.
Note: Data connections are to the public domain on your network.

How To Read Bar Codes With the Camera

You can use the camera to read bar codes. When you read bar codes with the camera, the computer treats the camera as it would any input device, such as a Bluetooth scanner, and bar code data is sent to an application as if it came from a scanner or imager.
There are two ways to enable reading bar codes with the camera:
You can use the Profile Settings application to enable bar code
reading. The computer uses the current symbology decode settings to read bar code data.
You can configure individual parameters in Intermec Settings to
enable bar code reading.
Note: To read bar codes using the camera, you must use Intermec Settings to configure bar code symbology decode settings.

Enable or Disable Reading Bar Codes With the Camera

You use the Profile Settings application to enable or disable reading bar codes with the camera. Reading bar codes with the camera is disabled by default.
Note: You can also enable reading bar codes by setting parameters in Intermec Settings.
1 Tap Start > ProfileSettings.
2 Tap Camera.
3 In the Camera menu, tap Enable bar code scan or Disable bar
code scan as necessary.
4 Tap OK.

Read Bar Codes With the Camera

After you enable reading bar codes with the camera, the computer sends bar code data to applications as keyboard input.
1 Start the application that is to receive the bar code data.
62 Document Title
2 Position the computer about 20 cm (8 in) over the bar code you

want to read. Make sure nothing is blocking the camera lens.
3 Press and hold the Scan button. The screen turns into a viewfinder
with an aiming bar across the middle of the screen.
4 Center the aiming bar over the bar code and release the Scan
button. The bar code is read and the data appears in the active application.
If the computer does not read the bar code right away, release the Scan button and try again. You may need to move the computer closer to or further away from the bar code for best results.

Camera Settings for Reading Bar Codes

To use the camera for reading bar codes, you must use the Intermec Settings application to configure the camera. From the main screen of Intermec Settings, select Data Collection > Camera > Camera Settings.

How to Perform Document Capture With the Camera

You can use the camera to perform document capture. Document capture is a specialized feature for taking a picture of a document, and automatically applying keystone correction to the image so that only the document appears in the image.
Document Capture Image with No Keystone Correction
Document Capture Image with Keystone Correction
There are two ways to enable document imaging with the camera:
You can use the Profile Settings application to enable document
capture. The computer uses the current document capture settings to apply keystone correction (and other postprocessing features if specified).
You can configure individual parameters in Intermec Settings to
enable document capture.

Use GPS

The computer comes equipped with an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver if your computer has phone capability (WWAN radio). The GPS receiver can deliver standards-based National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) data strings to GPS applications.

About the Integrated GPS on Your Computer

Intermec recommends that you use the GPS Intermediate Driver (GPSID) instead of directly accessing the GPS hardware. The GPSID is a Microsoft hardware component that interacts between applications and the GPS hardware.
As a Microsoft software component, the GPSID:
allows multiple applications to simultaneously access the GPS data
stream.
provides access to GPS data without requiring applications to
recognize and parse NMEA syntax.

Use the GPSID Installed on the Computer

To use the GPSID installed on your mobile computer, you need to configure the GPSID settings.
1 Tap Start > Settings > System > External GPS. The GPS Settings
screen appears with Programs selected.
2 Select the COM port that you want your program to use to get GPS
data from your computer.
3 Tap Access in the horizontal scroll bar and select the Manage GPS
automatically check box.

4 Tap OK.

About the GPS Module Operating Modes

The integrated GPS module has three operating modes:
Standalone
MS Assisted (Mobile Station Assisted)
gpsOneXTRA™ (UMTS computers only)
In Standalone mode, the GPS module relies solely on GPS satellites to determine position.
Chapter 5 — Use GPS
Note:The CN51 also supports GLONASS.
In MS Assisted mode, the computer can determine position without receiving GPS signals directly from satellites. Instead, the computer receives GPS signals and information provided by the cellular network. Even when the computer can receive a satellite signal, MS Assisted can improve position accuracy and reduce the time to determine initial position (Time-to-first-Fix). Check with your cell phone carrier for availability and pricing for MS Assisted service.
Document Title 71
Chapter 5 — Use GPS
DRAFT
Qualcomm’s gpsOneXTRA Assistance technology provides enhanced operation for Standalone GPS. This option enables the UMTS-enabled computer to automatically download a small assistance data file from the XTRA servers through a brief internet access session. To use this option, you must have a valid and activated WAN data connection.
Note: Internet connection fees may apply.
Another option you can configure with iGPS is the fix interval. The fix interval defines how often the GPS provides new information. Larger intervals use less power, but many applications require small intervals to work correctly. The default for fix interval, in seconds, is 4. The Flexible Network Radio has a maximum interval of 4.

Improve GPS Performance on the Computer

Use the iGPS application to improve the performance of the GPS on your computer. Any time you change the GPS settings, the phone automatically resets.
1 Go to Start > Settings > System > iGPS.
2 In the Fix Interval tab, enter a value for the fix interval. The default
setting is 4 and should be optimized for most applications.
3 Tap the Fix Type tab and select one of these options: Standalone
(1), MS assisted (2), or Enable gpsOneXTRA (check box).
Note: GLONASS reception is enabled by default. Intermec recommends that you keep GLONASS enabled for better accuracy. To disable GLONASS, make sure that Enable Glonass is not selected.
4 Tap OK.
