READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERA-
TION BEFORE USING YOUR MOTOROLA HANDHELD PORTABLE TERMINAL
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to June 2001. For information regarding terminal use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM)
Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with terminal
models that offer this capability.
Compliance with RF Energy Exposure Standards
Your Motorola terminal is designed and tested to comply with a number of national
and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to terminal frequency electromagnetic energy. This terminal complies with the
IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limit. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your terminal radiates measurable RF
energy only while it transmits data, not when it is receiving data.
Your Motorola terminal complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2 sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
1998
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Terminal frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to
300 GHz, 1999
• Australian Communications Authority Terminal communications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 2001 (applicable to wireless
phones only)
• ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution 256 (April 11, 2001) "additional requirements for SMR, cellular and PCS product certification."
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
Body-worn Operation
• Always place the terminal in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case,
attachment, or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved
accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.
• If you do not use a Motorola approved body-worn accessory, then ensure the
terminal is kept 2.5 cm (one inch) from the body when transmitting.
Antennas & Batteries
• Use only Motorola approved supplied antenna or Motorola approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the terminal and may violate FCC regulations.
• Use only Motorola approved, supplied batteries or Motorola approved replacement batteries. Use of non-Motorola-approved antennas or batteries may
exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Approved Accessories
For a list of Motorola approved accessories see the appendix of this user manual or
visit the following website which lists approved accessories:
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic in-
terference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your terminal in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health
care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your terminal when on board an aircraft. Any use
of a terminal must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless terminal and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent
with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
68P02962C35-APlease retain for future use
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the terminal more than 6 inches (15 centimeters) from their
pacemaker when the terminal is turned ON.
• not carry the terminal in the breast pocket.
• turn the terminal OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless terminals may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event
of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may
be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Operational Warnings
For Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a portable terminal in the area over an air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a
portable terminal is placed in the air bag deployment area and the
air bag inflates, the terminal may be propelled with great force and
cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your terminal prior to entering any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, unless it is a terminal type especially qualified for use in such areas as "Intrinsically Safe" (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, UL, or CENELEC). Do not remove, install, or
charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death. The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Blasting Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off
your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting
area, or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Obey all signs
and instructions.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such
as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded
chains touches exposed terminals. The conductive material may
complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.
Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

UPScan is a new global scanning system. Before deploying this
new scanning system, certain UPS facilities are selected to test our
products. Your facility is being asked to help us test UPScan
which will replace your current IPLD scanning system. The
UPScan project will ultimately be deployed to various UPS sites.
UPScan will replace all the current equipment with the Emerald
mobile terminal and the Emerald ring scanner.
There are several benefits that UPS will receive from UPScan:
• Flexibility of Scanning
Loaders and Supervisors are able to use one global easy-to-use
scanning system. Nine terminals have been reduced to two.
• Simpler Process
The Emerald mobile terminal, and the Emerald cordless ring
scanner will simplify the process. The equipment is more
durable.
• Ease of Use
There is a single point of functionality within several scanning
systems. User Login and Scanner Setup have been
standardized.
• Hands-free Scanning
There is wireless communication between the Emerald
terminals and ring scanner.
• Scanner International and Triggerless Features
There are beep tones and voice messaging for international
exceptions/holds, as well as a tri-color light indicating when
status information is available.
The Emerald ring scanner is designed to be worn on the second and
third fingers of the hand that is used to scan the tracking number.
The scan window should be facing out. The battery should be
slotted on the underside of the ring scanner.
To expedite the scanning process, the ring scanner was designed to
emit a continuous laser beam. The loader does not have to press a
trigger to emit the beam. The laser beam will only be available in
those fields where scanning can take place.
Note: Jewelry should not be worn when using the ring scanner.
Emerald Mobile Terminal
The Emerald mobile terminal will be placed either in a waist or
wrist attachment when working with the equipment. In UPScan the
Emerald mobile terminal and the Emerald ring scanner are used as
a set.
Radio Frequency (RF) allows real-time access of data, beep tones
and voice messaging to the user.
Blue tooth communication eliminates cables attached to the user. If
a communication problem develops between the ring scanner and
the mobile terminal, the scanner will emit a continuous beeping
tone. The loader should inform his supervisor if this happens.
In UPScan the wrist and waist attachments allow the loader to scan
hands free. The belts are adjustable, and the terminals mount easily
into the holder attached to the belt by snaps.
