Using the Battery
The CN30 uses a lithium-ion battery as its main power source. You must
fully charge the main battery before you can use the CN30. When you
change the battery, a backup battery (super capacitor) maintains your memory, data and real-time clock for at least 10 minutes.
The 14-key keypad module has a 3.7V 2400 MAh battery that is internal
to the module and is not user replaceable.
The 56-keypad module has a removable 3.7V 4800 MAh replaceable Lithium-Ion (LiIon) battery.
Removing the main battery when the backup battery low or critically low
icon displays in the status bar may cause your CN30 to cold boot and you
may lose data.
Attention: L’enlèvement de la batterie principale quand le bas de secours
de batterie ou les affichages en critique bas d’icône dans la barre de statut
peut causer votre CN30 à la botte froide et de vous peut perdre des données.
The lithium-ion battery pack that is used in this device may present a fire or
chemical burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it above
100°C (212°F) or incinerate it.
Avertissement: Le paquet de piles d’ions de lithium qui est utilisé dans cet
appareil peut presenter un risque feu ou un risque chimique de brûlure s’il

Using the Keypad
Your CN30 has one of the following keypads:
• 56-key full alphanumeric
• 14-key function
You can order all versions of the CN30 56-keypad with an international
overlay. The international overlay supports English and many Western
European languages, such as French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and
Spanish. You enter all of the characters and functions printed above the
keys just like you would on a standard keypad.
The CN30 supports TE 2000 VT100/220/320/340 and ANSI, TE 2000
5250, and TE 2000 3270. When you order the CN30 with a TE 2000
application, you must order the corresponding keypad overlay. Use the TE
2000 keypad overlays to enter the same keys that you can enter on a VT/
ANSI keyboard, an IBM 5250 keyboard, or an IBM 3270 keyboard.
Like the standard CN30 keypad overlays, the TE 2000 keypad overlays let
you enter all the characters printed on or above the keys. The terminal
emulation keypads also come with the same color-coded keys that are on
the standard overlay.

Chapter 1 — Using the CN30 Mobile Computer
Understanding the Status Lights
The status lights on the CN30 Computer turn on to indicate battery status
or successful bar decodes. The battery lights and the battery screen icon
work with each other to alert you to the status of your battery. If the battery
light (under the right Scan button) comes on, check the status bar to see
which battery icon appears on it. The battery may be critically low and
need replacing. The Good Read light (green) above the display indicates
when the CN30 Computer successfully decodes a bar code.
Scanning Bar Codes
Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection of the laser
beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term exposure to the laser beam can
damage your vision.
Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of scanner you
are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you
scan the bar code. The CK60 Computer supports the scanning of 2D
images. Plus, if you are using an integrated handle or a tethered scanner, the
way you scan bar codes is different.When you unpack the CN30, these bar
code symbologies are enabled:
Good Scan Light
Battery Light
Flashes red on low
battery condition
Code 39
•
• UPC/EAN
• PDF417 (if supported)
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different symbology,
you need to enable the symbology on the computer.
Use the Intermec Settings to enable and disable symbologies for your scanner.
14 CN30 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Scanning with the 2D Area Imager
The CN30 Computer has the 2D area imager, which provides the ability to
scan 2D bar code symbologies and supports omni-directional (360°) scanning where you can position the CN30 Computer in any orientation to
scan a bar code label. Using the 2D area imager is very similar to taking a
picture with a digital camera.
1 Press (I) to turn on the CN30 Computer.
2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CN30
Computer steady a few inches from the label.
3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on a handle and
center the red aiming beam over the bar code label. The aiming beam is
smaller when the imager is closer to the bar code and larger when it is
further away.
When the CN30 Computer successfully reads a bar code label, you hear
a high beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.
4 Release the Scan button.
Chapter 1 — Using the CN30 Mobile Computer
If you have problems scanning a bar code with the 2D imager, try following
some of these tips to improve the performance of your imager:
• Set Lighting mode to Illum LED Priority.
• Keep your hand as steady as possible while scanning a label.
• Make sure that Aimer LED Duration is set to zero.
• Position the imager as close to the bar code as possible while still being
able to capture the entire bar code.
• Enable only the bar codes that you need to use every day.
Use Intermec Settings to configure these imager commands. For help using
Intermec Settings, see “Configuring the CN30 Computer With Intermec
Settings” on page 46. For more information on the commands and their
parameters, see the Intermec Computer Command Reference Manual (P/N
073529) via the Intermec web site. See “Before You Begin” for information
