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 frequency ba nds. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified p ower level, the actu al SAR level o f t he device while o perating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so 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 0.569 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.578 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon availabl e enh a nc em ents and FCC requirements.)
For WLAN Head SAR and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.119 W/kg for WLAN Head SAR and 0.077 W/kg for WLAN Body SAR.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices an d at various positions, they a ll meet 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.
*
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
after searching on FCC ID: H9PFR6876.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
FR6876 is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating of this product. some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing-device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated have a label on the box. FR6876 has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M3 and/or T3 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and the degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference with hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices contain telecoils.) The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to those of phones. Ask your hearing health-care professional for the rating of your hearing aid.
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from wireless devices.

.
Turning on the HAC Setting
When the HAC setting is on, FR6876 sends the audio from your phone calls to the telecoil rather than to the microphone of your hearing aid. You are likely to hear calls much better because volume is increased and background noise and feedback are diminished. The HAC setting improves only the calls you listen to through the earpiece. Turn off the [Bluetooth] function. Turn off the [WiFi] function. It does not affect calls heard on the speakerphone or with or a headset. HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your battery consumption when it's turned on.

Charging the Battery
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery
Before using the FR6876 for the first time, charge the main battery until th e amb er Chargi ng/Battery Status LED remains lit (see T able 1-2 on page 1-7 for charge status indications). To charge the FR6876, use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories availab le for the FR6876, see Chapter 6,
Accessories.
The FR6876 is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main battery . When using the FR6876 fo r the first time, the backup b attery requires approxi mately 36 hou rs to fully charge. This is also true any time the back up battery is discharged, which occurs w hen the main battery is removed for several hours. The backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 15 minutes (at room temperature) when the FR6876's main battery is removed. When the FR 6876 reaches a very low battery state, the c ombinat ion 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. Fo r cable an d cradle setup and charging procedures refer to the FR6876 Integrator Guide.

Data Capture
Linear Scanning
Scanning Considerations
The FR6876 offers on e type of dat a capture option: linear scanning
NOTE
To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the FR6876. A sample scanning
application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com.
FR6876 with an integrated linear scanne r have the fo llowing feat ures:
• Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, 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 special re flectio n can “blind” the scanne r.
To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam doe s not bounce direc tly back. But don’ t scan at too sharp 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 FR6876 farther away for larger sy mbols.
• Move the FR6876 closer for symbols w ith bars that are close togethe r.
NOTE
Scanning procedures depend on the application and FR6876 configuration. An app lication may use different
scanning procedures from the one listed above.
1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the FR6876.
2. Aim the scan window a t the bar code.

3. Press the scan button. Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. The Scan/Decode
LED lights red to indicate that scanning is in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully .

Chapter 3 Using GPS
Introduction
The FR6876 includes Global Positioning System (GPS) technology using the Q ua l c o m m chip . GPS technology is based on a worldwide system of GPS satellites orbiting the earth that continuously transmit digital radio signals. These radio signals contain data on the satellites’ locations and their exact clock time and are used to determine your location on the earth.
WARNING
Software Installation
Third-party GPS navigation software is required. Evaluation software is available from various suppliers. If interested in purchasing GPS navi gation software check with the GPS sof tware vendor (before purchasi ng,
downloading, or installing any software) to determine that the application is compatible with the FR6876. Refer to the application’s user guide for application installation and setup information.
FR6876 GPS Setup
The GPS-enabled FR6876 uses Microsoft Windows Mobile 6, so the operating system automatically manages access to the GPS receiver to allow multiple programs to simultaneously access GPS data.
Ensure that the following settings are set on the FR6876:
1. Tap Start > Settings > System > External GPS icon.
2. In the Programs tab, select GPD1 from t he GPS program port drop-dow n list.
3. In the Hardware tab, select COM6 in the GPS hard ware port drop-down list.
!
When using the FR6876 in a vehicle, it is the user’s responsibility to place, secure and use in a manner that will not cause accidents, persona l injury or property damage or obstruct their vie w . It is the responsibility of the driver to operate the vehicle in a safe manner, maintain observation of all driving conditions at all times, and not become distracted by the device to the exclusion of sa fe driving practices. It is unsafe to operate the controls of the device while driving.

NOTE
Anytime you are using GPS on the FR6876 and you receive a phone call, the audio on the
GPS navigation software is muted until you finish the call.
Losing the GPS Signal While in a Vehicle
GPS performance on the FR6876 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which can block the FR6876 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the FR6876 where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight is required between the FR6876 and the GPS satellites to access information from the satellites.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system that allows the user to track their position anywhere on the earth.
Assisted GPS
GPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes. A St and-alon e GPS receiver downloads data from GPS satellites. It can take several minutes to get a fix. By using GPS Location servers, A-GPS dramatically improves the performance of the Time To First Fix (TTFF) of GPS receivers by providing them with data that they would ordinarily have to download from the GPS satellites. With the A-GPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster and more reliably.

Chapter 4 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)
Adaptive Frequency Hopping
communication and low power consumption. FR6876s with Bluetooth cap abilities can exchange information (e.g. , files, appointments, and tasks) with other
Bluetooth enabled devices such as phones, and other mobile computers. To use the FR6876 as a modem, create a dial-up modem connection between a computer and FR6876.
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-b y-channel basis, or
pre-defined channel mask.
• Link Management - Coordinates and distributes the AFH information to the rest of the Bluetooth network.
• Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively 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 802.1 1b high-rate channels. AFH coexistence allows Motorola mobile computers to operate in any infrastructure.
58
Page 65
Using Bluetooth
The Bluetooth radio in this FR6876 operates as a Class 2 device power clas s. The maximum output power is 2.5mW and the expected range is 32.8 fe et (10 meters). A definition of ranges based on powe r clas s is dif ficu lt to obt ain due to power and device differences, and whether one m easures open space or closed of fice sp a ce.
NOTE
It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b operation is
required.
Security
The current Bluetooth specification defines secu rity at the link level. Application-level sec urity is not specified. This allows application developers to define security mechanisms tailored to their specific need. Link-level security occurs between d evices , 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 flow ing on the link between the devices. Device a uthentication 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 key for them. Entering a common PIN number in the devices being paired generates the initialization key . The PIN number is never sent over the air. By default, the Bluetooth stack responds with no key when a key is requested (it is up to user to respond to the key request event). Authentication of Bluetooth devices is based-upon a challenge-response transaction. Bluetooth allows 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 key used to authenticate the p airing devices. Also worthy of note is the limited range and fast freque ncy hopping of the Bluetooth radios that makes long-distance eavesdropping diff icult.
Recommendations are:
• Perform pairing in a secure environment
• Keep PIN codes private and don't store the PIN codes in the mobile compute r
• Implement application-level security.
