RF Exposure Information (SAR)



This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.

The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested freq uency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified p ower level, the actu al SAR level o f t he d evice while o perating
can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so

 5

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions



as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.

The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.014 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.00407 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among device
models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.)

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all me et the
government requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other
enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Charging the Battery

Charging

Before using the FR6070for the first time, charge the main battery u ntil the amber Chargi ng/Battery S t a tus LED

remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-7 for charge status indications). To charge the FR6070, use a cable or a cradle

with the appropriate pow er supply. For info rmation about the accessories availab le for the FR6070, s ee Chapter 6,

Accessories.

The FR6070is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically c harges from the fully-charg ed main

battery . When using the FR607 0for the first time, the backup battery requires approxi mately 36 hours to fully charge.

This is also true any time the backup b attery is discha rged, which occurs when the main battery is removed for several

hours. The backup battery r etains RAM dat a in memory for at least 15 minute s (at room temperature) when the

FR6070's main battery is removed. When the FR6070 reaches a very low batt ery st ate , the c ombination of main

battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 48 hours.

To charge the main battery, use either a charging cable or a cradle. For cable an d cradle setup and charging

procedures refer to the FR6070Integrator Guide.

Data Capture

Linear Scanning

Scanning Considerations

The FR6070offers li near sca nning as data capture.

NOTE

To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the FR6070. A sample

scanning

application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com.

FR6070with an integrated linear s canner have the fo llowing feature s:

• Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular line ar, postal, and 1-D code

types.

• Intuitive aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.

Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode and a few quick trial efforts master it. However,
consider the following to optimize scanning performance:

• Range

Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the bar code. This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics.

Scanning within range brings quick and const ant dec odes; scanning too close or too far away prevents
decodes. Move the scanner c loser and further aw ay to find the right working range for the bar codes being
scanned.

• Angle

Scanning angle is important for promoting quick deco des. When las er beams reflect direct ly back into the
scanner from the bar code, this specia l reflec tion can “blind” the sca nner.

To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does n ot bounce di rectly back . But don’t sc an at too s harp
an angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflecti ons from the scan to make a succes sful decode.
Practice quickly shows w hat tolerances to work within.

• Hold the FR6070farther away for larger symbols.

• Move the FR6070closer for symbols wi th bars that are close togethe r.

NOTE

1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the FR6070.

2. Aim the scan window at the bar code.

Scanning procedures depend on the application and FR6070configuration. An app lication may use different

scanning procedures from the one listed above.

Chapter

3 Using Bluetooth

Introduction

Bluetooth-equipped devices can communicate without w ires, using freque ncy-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
radio frequency (RF) to transmit and receive data in the 2.4 GHz Industry Scientific and Medical (ISM) band
(802.15.1). Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (30 feet/10 meters)
communication and low power consumption.

FR6070s with Bluetooth cap abilities can exchange information (e.g. , files, appointments, and tasks) with other
Bluetooth enabled devices such as phones, and other mobile com puters.

Adaptive Frequency Hopping

Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with
Bluetooth v oic e. All devices in the pi conet (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 Modific atio n - Avoids interference by selective l y 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 802.11 b high-rate channels. AFH
coexistence allows Motorola mobile computers to operate in any infrastructure.

 54

The Bluetooth radio in this FR6070operates as a Class 2 device power c lass. The maximum output power is

2.5mW
and the expected range is 32.8 feet (10 meters). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to
obtain due to power and device dif ferenc es, and whether one measures op en sp ac e or closed of fice sp ac e.

NOTE

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

is

required.

Security

The current Bluetooth spe cification 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 dev ices, not users, while application-level security can be implemented on a per-user
basis. The Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedures needed to authenticate devices,
and if needed, encrypt the data flowing on the link between the devices. D evice authentication is a mandatory
feature of Bluetooth while link encryption is optional.

Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key that is used to authenticate the
devices and create a link ke y for them. Entering a common PIN number in the devices being p aire d ge nera tes
the initialization key. The PIN num ber is never se nt over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack responds w ith
no key when a key is requ e sted (it is up to user to re spon d to the key request event). Auth entication of
Bluetooth devices is based-up on a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allow s for a PIN number or
passkey that is used to create other 128-bit keys used for security and encryption. The encryption key is
derived from the link k ey 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

• Keep PIN codes private and don't store t he PIN codes in the mobile comput er

• Implement application-level security.

Turning the Bluetooth Radio Mode On and Off

Turn of f the Bluetooth radio to save pow er or if entering an are a with radio restrictions (e.g., an airplane). When
