Getting Started
This chapter provides information for getting the device up and running for the first time.
Setup
To start using the MC32N0 for the first time:
Install a microSD card (optional)
•
• Install the battery
• Charge the MC32N0
• Power on the MC32N0.
19 | Getting Started
Installing a microSD Card
The microSD card slot provides secondary non-volatile storage. The slot is located under the battery pack. Refer to
the documentation provided with the card for more information, and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for
use.
Caution: Follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions to avoid damaging the microSD card.
Proper ESD precautions include, but are not limited to, working on an ESD mat and ensuring that the
operator is properly grounded.
Note: On Android devices, after installing the microSD card, the device will automatically reset. This
ensures proper reading of the file content on the microSD card.
Procedure:
1 Remove the microSD card cover.
Figure 5: Remove microSD Card Cover
2 Slide the microSD card holder down to unlock.

targets as they appear on the screen.
Charging the Battery
Caution: Ensure that you follow the
page 159.
Use the mobile computer cradles, cables and spare battery chargers to charge the mobile computer main battery.
The main battery can be charged before insertion into the mobile computer or after it is installed.
batteries for the MC32N0, the Standard Battery (1X) and the Extended Life Battery (2X). The standard capacity
battery ships from the factory in all MC32N0-R configurations. The Extended Life Battery ships from the factory in
all MC32N0-S and MC32N0-G configurations. To install an Extended Life Battery in the MC32N0-R configurations,
purchase an Extended Life Battery. Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the main battery (out of the mobile
computer) or one of the cradles to charge the main battery while it is installed in the mobile computer.
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, fully charge the main battery until the amber Charge LED
Indicator remains lit (see Table 1: LED Charge Indicators on page 23 for charge status indications). The Standard
Battery fully charges in less than five hours and the Extended Life Battery fully charges in less than eight hours.
The MC32N0 retains data in memory for at least five minutes when the mobile computer’s main battery is removed
or fully discharged.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the battery retains data in memory for at least 36 hours.
Batteries must be charged within the 0° to +40° C (32° to 104° F) ambient temperature range.
The following accessories can be used to charge batteries:
• Cradles (and a power supply):
- Single Slot Serial/USB Cradle with Battery Adapter
- Four Slot Cradles.

Resetting the WinCE Device
If the MC32N0 stops responding to input, reset it. There are two reset functions, warm boot and cold boot. A warm
boot restarts the MC32N0 by closing all running programs. All data that is not saved is lost.
A cold boot also restarts the MC32N0, but erases all stored records and entries from RAM. In addition it returns
formats, preferences and other settings to the factory default settings.
Perform a warm boot first. If the MC32N0 still does not respond, perform a cold boot.
Performing a Warm Boot
Procedure:
1 Press the Power button for five seconds.
Caution: Files that remain open during a warm boot may not be retained.
2 As soon as the MC32N0 starts to boot release the Power button.
Figure 18: Splash Screen (Warm Boot)
Performing a Cold Boot
A cold boot restarts the mobile computer and erases all user stored records and entries from RAM. Never perform a
cold boot unless a warm boot does not solve the problem.
Note:
Cold boot resets the mobile computer, to the default settings. All added applications and all stored data are
removed. Do not cold boot without administrator approval.
28 | Getting Started
Note:
The Real-time clock (RTC) default time is set to 1/1/2013 12:00 AM and is retained after a cold boot. After
boot up, the MC32N0 saves the system time in persistent storage (Application folder) every 60 minutes.
If the RTC time resets to the default value due to power lost, the MC32N0 restores the time from the file in
persistence storage (Application folder). The RTC file is deleted during OSUpdate procedure.
Procedure:
1 Simultaneously press and then release the 1, 9 and Power keys. Do not hold down any other keys or buttons. As
the mobile computer initializes, the splash window appears.
