Data Capture
Introduction
The device supports data capture using:
• Integrated imager
• RS507/RS507X Hands-free imager
• RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner.
Imaging
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its
memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from
the image. With a 2D imager, the device has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear,
postal, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming cross-hair and dot aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
Operational Modes
The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each
mode by pressing the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its
field of view. The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it
decodes a barcode.
NOTE: To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.
• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a barcode when more than one
barcode is in the device’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over
the required barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing
multiple barcodes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type
(either 1D or 2D).
74
Data Capture
RS507/RS507x Hands-Free Imager
The RS507 and RS507x Hands-free Imagers are wearable barcode scan solution for both 1D and 2D bar code
symbologies. The scanner supports Bluetooth Human Interface Device (HID) connection to the device.
Figure 42 RS507/RS507x Hands-Free Imager
Refer to the RS507/RS507x Hands-free Imager Product Reference Guide for more information.
RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
The RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner is a wearable bar code scan solution for both 1D and 2D bar code
symbologies.
Figure 43 RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
Refer to the RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner Product Reference Guide for more information.
Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode, with a few quick trial efforts to master it.
However, consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
• Range: Scanners decode best over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the barcode. This range varies according to barcode density and scanning device optics. Scan within range
for quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents decodes. Move the scanner
closer and further away to find the right working range for the barcodes being scanned.
• Angle: Scanning angle is important for quick decodes. When the illumination/flash reflects directly back into
the imager, the specular reflection can blind/saturate the imager. To avoid this, scan the barcode so that the
beam does not bounce directly back. Do not scan at too sharp an angle; the scanner needs to collect
scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice quickly shows what tolerances to
work within.
• Hold the device farther away for larger symbols.
75
• Move the device closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the app and device configuration. An app may use different scanning
procedures from the one listed above.
Scanning with Internal Imager
To read a barcode, a scan-enabled app is required. The device contains the DataWedge app that allows the
user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data, and display the barcode content.
To scan with the internal imager:
1. Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2. Point the exit window on the top of the device at a barcode.
Figure 44 Imager Scanning
Data Capture
3. Press and hold the scan button. The white aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.
NOTE: When the device is in Picklist mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the crosshair on the device display
overlays the barcode.
4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by aiming pattern.
Figure 45 Aiming Pattern
5. The Data Capture LED lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded
successfully.
76
6. Release the scan button.
NOTE: Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The device repeats the steps required to take a digital picture (im-
age) of a poor or difficult barcode as long as the scan button remains pressed.
7. The barcode content data displays in the text field.
Picklist Mode
When Picklist Mode is enabled, the screen displays an image of the barcode and a red cross-hair. See device
Integrator Guide for Android Version 8.1 for information on setting Picklist Mode.
When the device is in Picklist Mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the cross-hair touches the
barcode.
Figure 46 Pick List Mode with Multiple Barcodes in Aiming Pattern
Data Capture
To read multiple barcodes, a scan-enabled application is required. The device contains the DataWedge
application that allows the user to enable the imager, decode the barcode data and display the barcode
content.
1. Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2. Point the exit window on the top of the device at the barcodes.
3. Press and hold the scan button.
The white aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.

Wireless
Introduction
This section provides information on the wireless features:
• Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
• Bluetooth
•Cast.
Wireless Local Area Networks
Wireless local area networks (WLANs) allow the device to communicate wirelessly inside a building. Before
using the device on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required hardware to run the WLAN
(sometimes known as infrastructure). The infrastructure and the device must both be properly configured to
enable this communication.
Refer to the documentation provided with the infrastructure (access points (APs), access ports, switches,
Radius servers, etc.) for instructions on how to set up the infrastructure.
Once the infrastructure is set up to enforce the chosen WLAN security scheme, use the Wireless & networks
settings configure the device to match the security scheme.
The device supports the following WLAN security options:
• Open
• Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)/WPA2 Personal (PSK)
• Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).
The Status bar displays icons that indicate Wi-Fi network availability and Wi-Fi status.
NOTE: To extend the life of the battery, turn off Wi-Fi when not in use.
Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network
To connect to a Wi-Fi network:
1. Swipe down from the Status bar to open the Quick Access panel.

3. Scroll through the list and select the desired WLAN network.
4. For open networks, touch profile once or press and hold and then select Connect to network or for secure
networks enter the required password or other credentials then touch Connect. See the system
administrator for more information.
The device obtains a network address and other required information from the network using the dynamic
host configuration protocol (DHCP) protocol. To configure the device with a fixed internet protocol (IP)
address, Refer to the device Integrator Guide for more information.
5. In the Wi-Fi setting field, Connected appears indicating that the device is connected to the WLAN.

1. Swipe down from the status bar to open the quick access panel and then touch .
2. Touch Network & Internet > W-Fi.
3. Scroll down to the bottom of the list and touch Saved networks.
4. Touch the name of the network.
5. In the dialog box, touch FORGET.
6. Touch the Home button.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth devices can communicate without wires, using frequency-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 (10 m (32.8 ft))
communication and low power consumption.
Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (for example, files, appointments, and tasks)
with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.
Wireless
The device supports Bluetooth Low Energy. Bluetooth Low Energy is targeted at applications in the healthcare,
fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. It provides reduced power consumption and cost while
maintaining standard Bluetooth range.
Adaptive Frequency Hopping
Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) is a method of avoiding fixed frequency interferers, and can be used with
Bluetooth voice. All devices in the piconet (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 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 802.11b high-rate channels.
AFH coexistence allows enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.
The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5
mW and the expected range is 10 m (32.8 ft). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain
due to power and device differences, and whether in open space or closed office space.
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 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 devices, not users, while application-level security can be implemented on a per-user
basis. The Bluetooth specification defines security algorithms and procedures required to authenticate
87
devices, and if needed, encrypt the data flowing on the link between the devices. Device authentication is a
mandatory feature of Bluetooth while link encryption is optional.
Pairing of Bluetooth devices is accomplished by creating an initialization key used to authenticate the devices
and create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being
paired generates the initialization key. The PIN 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 or passkey 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 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 do not store the PIN codes in the device
• Implement application-level security.

Battery Charging
The device’s Charging/Notification LED indicates the status of the battery charging in the device. See Table 4
on page 16 for device charging status. The 1,200 mAh (typical) / 1,100 mAh (minimum) battery charges from
fully depleted to 90% in approximately 2.5 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in approximately three hours.
NOTE: In most use cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge can last for
approximately 10 hours of use depending on device settings.
To achieve the best fast charging results use only Zebra charging accessories. Charge device at room temperature with the
device in sleep mode.
Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). The device or cradle always performs
battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37°C (+98°F))
the device or cradle may for small periods of time alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep the
battery at acceptable temperatures. The device and cradle indicates when charging is disabled due to
abnormal temperatures via its LED.
