Fingerprint Reader Tips

• Be consistent. Press the finger to the scanner and hold it there for a moment and scan at the same

angle each time. For example, if you register your finger with your hand open, hold your hand the same way each time you scan.

• Read the prompts carefully and ensure that you wait for the prompt before you swipe.

• When scanning, press hard enough to fully contact the sensor.

• Wipe dirt or debris off your finger before scanning it so nothing interferes with the scan. Rub your

fingers together to stimulate the natural skin oils so your fingerprint is easier to detect.

• If you are having trouble registering a specific finger, try to register a different finger.

• If you are repeatedly having trouble getting a good scan, you might need to clean the sensor.

The device supports data capture using an integrated scanner and Windows compatible Zebra Bluetooth and USB scanners.

For information on pairing and scanning using Zebra scanners, go to the Product Reference Guide for your scanner.

NOTE: When using 123Scan to configure the ET80/85 on-board scan engine, a mouse is required. 123Scan does not support touch screen use. If using 123Scan on a computer other than your tablet, select scanner model SE4107.

Imaging

The device with an integrated 2D imager has the following features:

• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of barcode symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal,

PDF417, Digimarc, and 2D matrix code types.

• Advanced intuitive laser aiming cross-hair and dot aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.

The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a barcode, stores the resulting image in memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the barcode data from the image.

Digital Camera

The device with an integrated camera based barcode scanning solution has the following features:

• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of barcode symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal,

QR, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.

• Cross-hair reticle for easy point-and-shoot operation.

The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a barcode, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.

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.

• 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.

Data Capture

1. Ensure that an app is open on the tablet and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

2. Point the scanner exit window at a barcode.

3. Press and hold the Scan button (1). The aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.

Data Capture

Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the aiming pattern. The aiming dot increases visibility

in bright lighting conditions.

A beep sounds to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully. When the Internal Scanner is in Pick List mode, the tablet does not decode the barcode until the aiming dot touches the barcode.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth-equipped 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 (100 meters (328 feet)) communication and low power consumption.

Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.

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 Bluetooth network (piconet) 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 and other 2.4G WLAN

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.

Wireless

communications. AFH for Bluetooth consists

Security

• Hop Sequence Modification - Avoids interference by selectively reducing 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 and other 2.4G WLAN high-rate channels. AFH coexistence allows Enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.

The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 1 device power class. The maximum output power is 9mW and the expected range is 100 meters (328 feet). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain due to power and device differences, and whether one measures open space or closed office space.

NOTE:

nel is required.

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 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.

Use of Bluetooth wireless technology is not recommended when high rate 802.11b operation using 2.4G chan-

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.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

This chapter includes instructions on cleaning and storing the tablet, battery maintenance and provides troubleshooting solutions for potential problems during tablet operations.

Maintaining the Device

For trouble-free service, observe the following tips when using the device:

• In order to avoid scratching the screen, use the supplied stylus or plastic-tipped pens intended for use

with a touch-sensitive screen. Never use an actual pen or pencil or other sharp object on the surface of the device screen.

• The touch-sensitive screen of the device is glass. Do not drop the device or subject it to strong impact.

• Protect the device from temperature extremes. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car on a hot day,

and keep it away from heat sources.

• Do not store the device in any location that is dusty, damp, or wet.

• Use a soft lens cloth to clean the device. If the surface of the device screen becomes soiled, clean it

with a soft cloth moistened with an approved cleanser. For a list of approved cleansers, see Approved

Cleanser Active Ingredients.

• Periodically replace the rechargeable battery to ensure maximum battery life and product performance.

Battery life depends on individual usage patterns.

• Dock or mount the device vertically to allow air cooling of the front and back surfaces. The tablet does

not contain an internal cooling fan. An optional dock fan module provides cooling for the tablet while docked.

Preventing Image Persistence

When a still image displays on the screen for long time, the image may persist, remaining slightly visible even after another image replaces it.

To prevent image persistence, use one or more of the following methods.

• Set the screen to automatically turn off after a few minutes of idle time.

• Set a screen saver to automatically start after a few minutes of idle time.

• Manually turn off the display when the device is not in use.

• Change the desktop background image every day or every few days.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Maintaining the Stylus

If you use an active (digitizer) pen with your tablet:

• Store the active (digitizer) pen in the pen holder when not in use.

• Avoid storing the pen vertically on its tip. It can damage the pen-to-digitizer function.

• Keep the pen away from any liquid, because the pen contains electronic components that can be

damaged when wet.

• In certain environments, particles or debris can stick to the pen tip or the tablet display. Make sure you

wipe off the pen with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the display.

Battery Safety Guidelines

• The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or

chemicals. Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a non commercial environment.

• Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in this guide.

• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.

• To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between 0ºC and

+40ºC (+32ºF and +104ºF).

• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers, including non-Zebra batteries and chargers. Use of an

incompatible battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a battery or a charger, contact the Global Customer Support Center.

• For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products

that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.

• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred battery.

• Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery to

overheat.

• Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery terminals.

• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to

water or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.

• Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle

or near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or dryer.

• Battery usage by children should be supervised.

• Please follow local regulations to properly dispose of used re-chargeable batteries.

• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.

• In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If contact

has been made, wash the affected area with water for 15 minutes and seek medical advice.

• If you suspect damage to your equipment or battery, contact Customer Support to arrange for

inspection.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Best Practices for Enterprise Mobile Computing Devices Operating in Hot Environments and Direct Sunlight

Exceeding the operating temperature by external hot environments will cause the device's thermal sensor to notify the user of a shutdown of the WAN modem or shutdown the device until the device's temperature returns to the operational temperature range.

• Avoid direct sunlight to the device - The easiest way to prevent overheating is to keep the device out of

direct sunlight. The device absorbs light and heat from the sun and retains it, getting hotter the longer it remains in sunlight and heat.

• Avoid leaving the device in a vehicle on a hot day or hot surface - Similar to leaving the device out in

direct sunlight, the device will also absorb the thermal energy from a hot surface or when left on the dashboard of a vehicle or seat, getting warmer the longer it remains on the hot surface or inside the hot vehicle.

• Turn off unused apps on the device. Open, unused apps running in the background can cause the

device to work harder, which in turn may cause it to heat up. This will also improve your mobile computer device's battery life performance.

• Avoid turning your screen brightness up - Just the same as running background apps, turning your

brightness up will force your battery to work harder and create more heat. Minimizing your screen brightness may extend operating the mobile computer device in hot environments.

• Follow all recommendations for Preventing Image Persistence.

Cleaning Instructions

CAUTION: Always wear eye protection.

Read warning label on alcohol product before using. If you have to use any other solution for medical reasons please contact the Global Customer Support Center for more information.

WARNING: Avoid exposing this product to contact with hot oil or other flammable liquids. If such exposure occurs,

unplug the device and clean the product immediately in accordance with these guidelines.

Approved Cleanser Active Ingredients

The approved cleaning and disinfecting agent recommended is 70% isopropyl alcohol solution.

Harmful Ingredients

The following chemicals are known to damage the plastics on the device and should not come in contact with the device: acetone; ketones; ethers; aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons; acqueous or alcoholic alkaline solutions; ethanolamine; toluene; trichloroethylene; benzene; carbolic acid and TB-lysoform.

Many vinyl gloves contain phthalate additives, which are often not recommended for medical use and are known to be harmful to the housing of the device.

NOTE:

Wipes to clean the device.

If using the tablet in a healthcare environment, do not use PDI Sani-Hands/ PDI Super Sani Cloth Germicidal

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Device Cleaning Instructions

as possible and clean with an alcohol wipe. It is also recommended to install the battery in the terminal prior to cleaning and disinfecting the device to help minimize buildup on the connectors.

When using cleaning/disinfectant agents on the device, it is important to follow the directions prescribed by the cleaning/disinfectant agent manufacturer.

If the battery connectors are exposed to cleaning agents, thoroughly wipe off as much of the chemical

Cleaning Materials Recommended

• Lens tissue

• Cotton-tipped applicators

• 70% isopropyl alcohol

• Can of compressed air with a tube.

Cleaning Frequency

The cleaning frequency is at the customer’s discretion due to the varied environments in which the mobile devices are used and may be cleaned as frequently as required. When dirt is visible, it is recommended to clean the mobile device to avoid build up of particles which make the device more difficult to clean later on.

Cleaning the Fingerprint Reader

Under normal circumstances, you should clean the fingerprint reader once a month, or whenever necessary.

To clean the fingerprint reader, gently rub the sensor surface with the cloth that is included with the tablet or any microfiber cloth.

You can use a small amount of alcohol or warm soapy water from time to time to clean the reader surface. Dry it off after cleaning.

CAUTION:

Do not use bleach, solvents, or abrasives to clean the reader.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
