Charging the Battery
CAUTION:Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on
page 213.
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. There are two
main batteries for the MC33XX, the 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+ standard battery (1X) and the 5200 mAh
PowerPrecision+ extended battery (2X). The MC33XX-G is compatible with the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+
extended battery. The MC33XX-R/S are compatible with both the 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+ standard battery
and the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+ extended 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 green Charge LED
indicator remains lit and charge the battery using a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply. For
information about the accessories available for the MC33XX, see Accessories. The 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+
standard battery fully charges (0% to 90% capacity) in less than 2.2 hours and the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+
extended battery fully charges (0% to 90% capacity) in less than 3.8 hours.
The MC33XX retains data in memory for at least five minutes when the mobile computer’s main battery is
removed.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the battery retains data in memory for at least 15 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:
1. Insert the mobile computer into a cradle. See Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge status. See
the table below for charging indications.
To charge the mobile computer using the cables:
1. Connect the MC33XX Communication/Charge Cable to the appropriate power source and connect to the mobile
computer. See Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge status.

room temperature.
The MC32N0 2740 mAh PowerPrecision standard battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 3 hours at room
temperature.
The MC32N0 5200 mAh PowerPrecision extended battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 5.5 hours at room
temperature.
Backup Power
The MC33XX is equipped with a supercapcitator (supercap) to provide backup power to the device when the main
battery is removed. The supercap will retain random access memory (RAM) data in memory for approximately five
minutes after the main battery is removed during Hot Swap.
IMPORTANT: The supercap is automatically charged from the main battery and requires approximately ten
minutes to fully charge.
Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) or up to 45°C (113°F) as reported by
the battery. To view the battery temperature, touch > About phone > Battery information.
Note that charging is intelligently controlled by the MC33XX. To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the
MC33XX or accessory alternately enables and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable
temperatures. The MC33XX or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via
its LED.
Charging Spare Batteries
See Accessories for information on using accessories to charge spare batteries.
Hot Swap Mode
The MC33XX provides a Hot Swap mode where the user can replace the battery without powering off the device.
When the user removes the battery, the display turns off and the device enters a low power state while in Hot Swap
mode. In Hot Swap mode, the MC33XX retains RAM data for approximately five minutes. Replace the battery
within five minutes to preserve memory persistence. If the user does not install a charged battery within five
minutes, data in RAM will be lost. During Hot Swap mode, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth remain connected for 30 seconds.
If the battery is not inserted within 30 seconds, Wi-Fi is disabled and then re-enabled when the device comes out of
Hot Swap mode and Bluetooth is reset when the device comes out of Hot Swap mode.
IMPORTANT: The supercap requires time to recharge after performing a Hot Swap or after the main battery is
fully depleted. Hot Swap mode will not retain data unless the supercap is fully charged.
Google Account Setup
NOTE: The MC33XX has to be connected to the internet in-order to set up a Google ™ account.
Google account only required on devices with GMS software.

Datawedge Configuration
Introduction
This chapter applies to DataWedge on Android devices. DataWedge is an application that reads data, processes
the data and sends the data to an application.
Basic Scanning
Scanning can be performed using an imager or laser scanner.
Barcode Capture with Imager
To capture barcode data:
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 top of the device at a barcode.
3.Press and hold the Scan button or Trigger.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.
4.Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the cross-hairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used
for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.
The Scan LEDs light green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully.
Note that when the device is in Pick List Mode, the device does not decode the barcode until the center of the
crosshair touches the barcode.
93
Datawedge Configuration

5.Release the scan button or Trigger.
6.The barcode content data appears in the text field.
Barcode Capture with Laser Scanner
To capture barcode data:
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 top of the device at a barcode.
3.Point the scan exit window at a bar code.
4.Press and hold the Scan button.
The red scan line turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure that the scan line crosses every bar and space of the
barcode.
The Scan LEDs light green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully.
Figure 77 Data Capture
5.Release the scan button.
6.The captured data appears in the text field.
94
Profiles
DataWedge is based on profiles and plug-ins. A profile contains information on how DataWedge should behave
with different applications.
Profile information consists of:
Using profiles, each application can have a specific DataWedge configuration. For example, each user application
can have a profile which outputs scanned data in the required format when that application comes to the
foreground. DataWedge can be configured to process the same set of captured data differently based on the
requirements of each application.
DataWedge includes the following pre-configured profiles which support specific built-in applications:
Datawedge Configuration
•Associated application
•Input plug-in configurations
•Output plug-in configurations
•Process plug-in configurations.
•Visible profiles:
•Profile0 - created automatically the first time DataWedge runs. Generic profile used when there are no
user created profiles associated with an application.
•Launcher - enables scanning when the Launcher is in foreground.
•DWDemo - provides support for the DWDemo application.
•Hidden profiles (not shown to the device):
•RD Client - provides support for MSP.
•MSP Agent - provides support for MSP.
•MspUserAttribute - provides support for MSP.
•Camera - disables scanning when the default camera application is in foreground.
•RhoElements - disables scanning when RhoElements is in foreground.
•StageNow - provides support for the StageNow application.
Some Zebra applications are capable of capturing data by scanning. DataWedge is pre-loaded with private and
hidden profiles for this purpose. There is no option to modify these private profiles.
Profile0
Profile0 can be edited but cannot be associated with an application. That is, DataWedge allows manipulation of plug-in settings for Profile0 but it does not allow assignment of a foreground application. This configuration allows
DataWedge to send output data to any foreground application other than applications associated with user-defined profiles when Profile0 is enabled.
Profile0 can be disabled to allow DataWedge to only send output data to those applications which are associated
in user-defined profiles. For example, create a profile associating a specific application, disable Profile0 and then
scan. DataWedge only sends data to the application specified in the user-created profile. This adds additional
security to DataWedge enabling the sending of data only to specified applications.
95
Plug-ins
A plug-in is a software module utilized in DataWedge to extend its functionality to encompass technologies such as
barcode scanning. The plug-ins can be categorized into three types based on their operations:
•Input Plug-ins
•Output Plug-ins
•Process Plug-ins.
Input Plug-ins
An Input Plug-in supports an input device, such as a barcode scanner contained in, or attached to the device.
DataWedge contains base plug-ins for these input devices.
•Barcode Scanner Input Plug-in – The Barcode Scanner Input Plug-in is responsible for reading data from
Datawedge Configuration
the integrated barcode scanner and supports different types of barcode readers including laser, imager
and internal camera. Raw data read from the barcode scanner can be processed or formatted using
Process Plug-ins as required. DataWedge has built-in feedback functionality for the barcode scanner to
issue user alerts. The feedback settings can be configured according to user requirement.
Process Plug-ins
Process Plug-ins are used in DataWedge to manipulate the received data according to the requirement, before
sending to the foreground application via the Output Plug-in.
•Basic Data Formatting Process Plug-in – The Basic Data Formatting Plug-in allows DataWedge to add
a prefix and/or a suffix to the captured data before passing it to an Output Plug-in.
•Advanced Data Formatting Process Plug-in – The Advanced Data Formatting Plug-in allows
DataWedge to apply rules (actions to be performed based on defined criteria) to the data received via an
input plug-in before passing it to an Output Plug-in.
Output Plug-ins
Output Plug-ins are responsible for sending the data from Input Plug-ins to a foreground application on the device.
•Keystroke Output Plug-in – The Keystroke Output Plug-in collects and sends data received from the
Input Plug-in to the foreground applications by emulating keystrokes.
•Intent Output Plug-in – The Intent Output Plug-in collects and sends data received from the Input
Plug-ins to foreground applications using the Android Intent mechanism.
•IP Output Plug-in – The IP Output Plug-in collects and sends data received from the Input Plug-ins to a
host computer via a network connection. Captured data can be sent over an IP network to a specified IP
address and port using either TCP or UDP transport protocols.
Profiles Screen
