Chapter 2: Product Description

About This Product

The V5000 series serves as the foundation of our independent
research and development, design, and production of industrial handheld
terminals for various industries. The form factor features a flexible,
ergonomic design that is lightweight and impact-resistant, with dual-power
mode, long standby time, and supports voice call functionality.

1. Integrated portable industrial design

The V5000 industrial terminals are designed to be waterproof,
dustproof, and resistant to impact drops, corrosion, static and
temperature extremes.

The V5000 series complies with IP65 requirements, have passed
impact testing from a height of 1.5 meters onto concrete floors, and
are not affected by dust or splashes of water. The V5000 uses a high­capacity battery that guarantees long working hours throughout the
day, and the terminal utilizes a dual-power mode to prevent loss of
data. It is ergonomic to minimize user fatigue, weighs only 350 grams,
and comes in a compact size of 190 (l) x 75 (w) x 30 (h) mm.

2. High-speed, large-capacity data processing

The V5000 series of industrial terminals uses Samsung’s Cortex-A8
1GHz processor + 512MB RAM and matching 512MB built-in Flash
memory. This enables it to quickly and accurately run high-speed
programs with complex processing. Its memory capacity can be
expanded up to 32GB with the use of microSD/TF cards, meeting a
number of business data storage needs.

3. Powerful and flexible data communication

The V5000 series supports WCDMA HSDPA standard voice, SMS and
data traffic, supports 802.11b/g Wi-Fi wireless LAN communication,

5

RS232 serial communications and Bluetooth. Meets Cisco CCX2/3
security standards, fully supports Cisco AP and safety specifications,
meaning you can run remote data updates.

4. Human-computer interaction capabilities

The V5000 series of products uses the Android operating system. This
platform is a truly open and completely comprehensive mobile
software platform, supported by a wealth of software resources for
users to choose from, giving the user a wide breadth of
customization options.

Main characteristics

1. A compact, lightweight, durable structure

2. Long working hours: the main battery when fully charged can last for

more than eight hours

3. Charging convenience: the V5000 uses a USB port for charging, making it

convenient to be recharged just about anywhere

4. Dual power sources: if the main battery is used up, the terminal will use

its backup battery. A fully charged backup battery can maintain standby
time of 6 hours, preventing accidental power failure and data loss

5. Hardware modules can be updated:

1) 3.0MP camera

2) GPS positioning

6. Built-in scanning module

7. Communication modes: Wi-Fi ,Bluetooth and GPRS/3G

8. Open design: the software interface allows development of third-party

applications

When the device’s battery runs out, some files and information stored in
the memory will disappear. So either maintain steady power supply, or save
your documents regularly.

Under normal situations, the primary battery can be used for more than 8
hours when fully charged. The device gives low power alerts when the

36

power supply approaches low levels. Continued use without recharging will
eventually lead the device to shut down.

Please do the following to extend battery life:

1. Reduce the number of times charging and discharging the battery.
Recharge only when the system prompts it.

2. Avoid excessive discharge, such as on a daily basis. Excessive discharge
will seriously harm the battery’s lifespan.

3. Avoid overcharging, as it can harm the battery’s lifespan. Charging
usually stops when a battery is more than 95% full; the charger included in
the package will calculate this.

4. Do a full charge and discharge of the battery once you use it for the first
time. Do this once every 3 months.

5. If the battery will not used for a long period of time, it can be removed
from the terminal and stored separately. This enables it to conserve power
longer than if it was left in the device, retaining about 50% of the original
battery power.
