NEO is a compact, ruggedized hand-held computer running the Microsoft Windows CE 5.0 operating system. It is intended for use in commercial and light industrial applications. NEO can be ordered with or without a radio. Without a Wi-Fi radio, it operates as a batch or unconnected computer. With a Wi-Fi radio installed, NEO operates as a connected computer, delivering real time wireless data transactions. A number of 1D bar code input methodologies are supported by the scanner and imager available with this hand-held computer.
Optimization for specific operational environments is supported with a wide range of peripheral options and carrying accessories.
The unique tilted screen design on this hand-held computer makes the display content readily visible. This means that the operator can scan a bar code and view the results on the display in one movement – no need to manually tilt the unit to view the results after each scan. In addition, the tilted screen in conjunction with the protective rib at the base of the keyboard allows the unit to be placed facedown safely with no danger of an accidental
key press.
Note: For complete NEO hand-held computer specifications, refer to “Specifications” on page 199.

Preparing NEO For Operation
2.1Preparing NEO For Operation
2.1.1The Battery
NEO is powered with a 3000 mAh Lithium-ion Battery, Model No. WA3020, and is compatible with battery Model No. WA3006.
Warning: Before charging the battery, it is critical that you review the safety guidelines in the ‘NEO Hand-Held Computer (Model No. PX750) Regulatory & Warranty Guide’, PN 8000175.
2.1.1.1 Charging The Main Battery
Battery packs shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% and must be fully charged prior to use. Batteries can be charged using a variety of docking stations along with a NEO internal charger. When using the internal charger, a suitable power source is required. All docking stations are described in Chapter 6: “Peripheral Devices & Accessories” beginning on page 187.
Note: In order to maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, a battery must be charged for at least two hours while installed in the hand-held; however, if you are charging a spare battery (not installed in the hand-held), the real time clock three day backup cannot be maintained until a charged battery is installed in the handheld computer for at least two hours.
2.1.2Backup Battery Power
A super capacitor provides a minimum of 10 minutes of suspend mode backup power to NEO to protect data while you swap in a new battery; all unnecessary draws on power such as the display and CPU are shut down to preserve power.
Important: When you initially power up the hand-held, leave the battery in the unit for a minimum of 2 minutes to allow the super capacitor to reach full capacity.
2.2Switching NEO On And Off
2.2.1Installing The Battery And Switching The Unit On
•Push the release latch at the base of the battery cover to unlatch it. Remove the battery cover.

Chapter 2: Basic Checkout
Switching The Unit Off (Suspend)
•Insert a charged battery into the unit, making certain that the connectors on the battery are aligned with those in the NEO battery compartment.
•Replace the battery cover, and snap it into place.
Note: If you are using a docking station or an external power supply, you can insert an uncharged battery and switch NEO on.
To switch NEO on:
•Press and hold down the [ENTER] key for at least one second.
•When the LED flashes green, release the [ENTER] button. The desktop screen is displayed.
Note: If the unit was already in use—the unit may be off (suspend state) – pressing [ENTER] ‘wakes’ the unit from this state. The screen in which you were working prior to the suspend state is displayed.
2.2.2Switching The Unit Off (Suspend)
•Press the [FN/BLUE] key, and then press [ENTER].
2.3Calibrating The Touchscreen
Note: Keep in mind that the touchscreen function can be turned off (see “Touch” on page 97).
The touchscreen is factory-calibrated and ready-to-go; however, over time the touchscreen operating parameters may change, and may need to be recalibrated for correct operation. Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 35 for details.
2.4Wireless Networking
NEO contains an integrated 802.11b/g radio module. The Wi-Fi Config application is used to configure NEO for one or more wireless network profiles. A network profile contains settings for SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security options.
Note: In most situations, the configuration of your 802.11 radio will require parameter setting and access keys from a network administrator.

Wi-Fi Config Tab
2.4.2Wi-Fi Config Tab
•To configure the radio for a wireless network, tap on the Configure tab.
Connect: Used to connect to an already existing wireless network configuration. Add New: Used to create a new wireless network configuration.
Edit: Used to change values in an already existing wireless network configuration. Remove: Used to delete a wireless network configuration.
Scan: Used to detect and list available wireless networks. You can highlight a network in the list, and tap on Add New to activate the network.
There are two methods available when configuring a radio network – you can either scan for an existing network or manually create a network. If you tap on the Scan button, a list of networks detected by the radio are displayed. Highlighting one of the listed networks and tapping on the Add New button creates a new profile that is completed based on the security capabilities detected by the radio. You may need to add additional information, depending on your network requirements.
If you tap on the Add New button rather than the Scan button, you can create a network manually.
Important: The steps below describe how to manually create a network. Keep in mind that this is intended only as an example and may vary from your own network requirements. If, for example, you are using a different type of security for your network, the fields you complete may not match those described here.

Wi-Fi Config Tab
•Enter the SSID (Service Set Identifier) for your network.
2.4.2.1 Authentication Modes
NEO supports four classes of authentication – Open, WEP, WPA PSK and 802.1x with EAP. Tapping on the Auth. Mode menu displays your authentication options.
Note: Each Auth. Mode has a unique Configure Profile screen attached to it with fields appropriate to the authorization mode you’ve chosen.
Open Authentication
Open authentication does not provide security. When this option is chosen, NEO will connect to wireless networks which do not use authentication or encryption.

Wi-Fi Config Tab
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
WEP provides static security to prevent others from accidentally accessing your network. If you choose this option, you can specify the type of WEP authentication – Open or Shared, the WEP security key length – 64 bit or 128 bit and the key type – ASCII or Hex. WEP Key fields are also provided where you can specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active WEP key on the access point.
WPA & WPA2 Personal PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
When PSK is selected, either WPA Personal PSK or WPA2 Personal PSK – a shared key must be configured on both the access point and the hand-held computer. One of the following can be chosen from the Encryption dropdown menu: TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES.
802.1X, WAP & WAP2 Enterprise And CCKM
These authentication modes use 802.1X and with EAP authentication. When 802.1X is selected, NEO uses WEP encryption with automatic (as opposed to static) keying. For the others, the user may choose TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES encryption.
2.4.2.2 EAP
This menu allows you to choose the EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) type used for 802.1x authentication to an access point.

•PEAPv0-MSCHAPv2: Provides secure user authentication by using a TLS tunnel to encrypt EAP traffic. MSCHAPv2 is used as the inner authentication method. This is appropriate for use against Windows Active Directory and domains.
•PEAP-GTC: PEAP authentication using GTC as the inner method which utilizes one time passwords (OTPs) for authentication against OTP data bases such as SecureID.
•LEAP: Is an authentication method for use with Cisco WLAN access points. LEAP does not require the use of server or client certificates. LEAP supports Windows Active Directory and domains but requires the use of strong passwords to avoid vulnerability to off-line dictionary attacks.
•FAST-MSCHAPv2: Is a successor to LEAP and does not require strong passwords to protect against off-line dictionary attacks. Like LEAP, EAP-FAST does not require the use of server or client certificates and supports Windows Active Directory and domains.
Server Certificate Verification
When the Verify Server Certificate box is checked, NEO will verify the certificate provided by the authentication server during the authentication process. This requires that an appropriate certificate be manually installed on NEO for the verification.
2.4.2.3 Encryption
The Encryption menu allows you to choose the type of encryption that will be used to protect transmitted data. Choose an Encryption method valid for your network from the dropdown menu. Only the Encryption options that are compatible with the type of Auth. Mode you’ve chosen will be listed. In fact, in some cases, this menu will not be available at all.
