CHAPTER 1 GETTING STARTED

This chapter provides information for getting the device up and running for the first time.

Setup

Perform this procedure to start using the MC67 for the first time.

1. Install the subscriber identification module (SIM) card.

2. Install the battery.

3. Charge the MC67.

4. Power on the MC67.

Installing the SIM Card

Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) phone service requires a SIM card. Obtain the card from a service provider. The card fits into the MC67 and can contain the following information:

•

Mobile phone service provider account details

•

Information regarding service access and preferences

•

Contact information, which can be moved to Contacts on the MC67

•

Any additional subscribed services.

NOTE For more information about SIM cards, refer to the service provider's documentation.

1. To install the SIM card, lift rubber access door.

2. Slide the SIM card holder up to unlock.

3. Lift the SIM card holder door.

1 - 2 MC67 with Android™ OS Integrator Guide

Figure 1-1 Lifting the SIM Cover

4. Insert the SIM card, as shown in Inserting the SIM Card ensuring that the card slides into the holding tabs on

each side of the door.

Figure 1-2 Inserting the SIM Card

5. Close the SIM card holder door and slide down to lock into place.

6. Close the rubber access door.

7. Install the battery.

Installing the Battery

1. Insert the battery, bottom first, into the battery compartment in the back of the MC67.

2. Press the battery down into the battery compartment until the battery release latch snaps (two clicks) into

Getting Started 1 - 3

Figure 1-3 Inserting the Battery

Charging the Battery

Before using the MC67 for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status light emitting diode (LED) remains lit. To charge the MC67, use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply.

For information about the accessories available for the MC67, see Chapter 2, Accessories for more information.

The MC67 is equipped with a backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main battery. When using the MC67 for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 40 hours to fully charge. This is also true any time the backup battery is discharged, which occurs when the main battery is removed for several hours. The backup battery retains random access memory (RAM) data in memory for at least 10 minutes (at room temperature) when the MC67’s main battery is removed. When the MC67 reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 36 hours.

For cable and cradle setup and charging procedures refer to the MC67 Integrator Guide.

•

USB Charging Cable

•

Charge Only Cable

•

Single Slot USB Cradle

•

Four Slot Charge Only Cradle

•

Four Slot Ethernet Cradle.

Charge batteries in temperatures from 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F). Note that charging is intelligently controlled by the MC67. To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the MC67 or accessory alternately enables and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC67 or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED.

1. To charge the main battery, connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.

2. Insert the MC67 into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC67 turns on and begins charging. The

Charging/Battery Status LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid amber when fully charged.

for removing power.

or 25-128974-01R.

Accessories 2 - 17

NOTE The ideal location for connecting the vehicle cradle power input cable would be an accessory output in

your vehicle’s fuse panel. The vehicle cradle should be added to a circuit with a maximum load capacity for the cradle and the original circuit. Refer to the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for identification of the circuit. If a fused output is not available, the vehicle cradle must be installed with the provided in-line fuse holder and UL Listed 5A fuse. The fuse protects the vehicle from an electrical short on the power line to the cradle.

To use the cradle to charge the MC67 and spare battery, when the vehicle’s ignition is off, connect the cradle to unswitched power.

2. Route the power input cable from the cradle’s power port to the connection point for the vehicle’s power

source.

CAUTION The means of routing and securing the power input cable from the cradle through to the vehicle power

source is extremely important. Hazards associated with improper wiring can be severe. To avoid unintentional contact between the wire and any sharp edges, provide the cable with proper bushings and clamping where it passes through openings. If the wire is subjected to sharp surfaces and excess engine vibration, the wiring harness insulation can wear away, causing a short between the bare wire and chassis. This can start a fire.

To avoid any mishaps, all wiring should be routed away from moving parts, high temperature areas and any contaminants.

3. When using the supplied in-line fuse holder (which must be used if not connecting to vehicle’s fuse panel):

a. Ensure the fuse holder contains a 5A UL Listed slow-blow fuse.

b. Splice the fuse holder to the end of the red V+ wire, as shown above. Make the distance from the fuse to

the power connection point as short as possible.

Figure 2-16 Vehicle Cradle Power Connection

4. Prepare the cable termination.

a. Red wire: connect to a +12/24 V vehicle power source.

b. Black wire and Shield wire: connect to vehicle ground wire or chassis ground.

NOTE How the cable terminates depends on the vehicle. If the vehicle has a power output connector, then you

must attach a mating connector to the end of the power cable. You may be able to connect to a fuse panel with a simple blade terminal or commercially available connector. Consult the vehicle Owner’s Manual for information on how to access the power supply in the vehicle.

CHAPTER 4 DATAWEDGE

CONFIGURATION

DataWedge is an application that reads data, processes the data and sends the data to an application.

Basic Scanning

Scanning can be performed using either the imager or the rear-facing camera.

Using the Imager

To capture bar code data:

1. Ensure that an application is open on the MC67 and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

2. Aim the exit window at a bar code.

3. Press and hold the a Scan button. The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure that the bar

code is within the area formed by the aiming pattern. The Data Capture LED lights red to indicate that data capture is in process.

Figure 4-1 Data Capture

4. The Data Capture LED lights green, a beep sounds and the MC67 vibrates, by default, to indicate the bar code

was decoded successfully. The captured data appears in the text field.

Using the Camera

To capture bar code data:

1. Ensure that an application is open on the MC67 and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

4 - 2 MC67 with Android™ OS Integrator Guide

2. Aim the rear-facing camera at a bar code.

3. Press and hold a Scan button. By default, a preview window appears on the screen. The Data Capture LEDs

light red to indicate that data capture is in process.

Figure 4-2 Data Capture with Camera

4. Move the MC67 until the bar code is centered under the red target.

5. The Left and Right LEDs light green, a beep sounds and the MC67 vibrates, by default, to indicate the bar code

was decoded successfully. The captured data appears in the text field.

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 visible and hidden pre-configured profiles which support specific built-in applications:

•

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 - disables scanning when the Launcher is in foreground.

•DWDemo - provides support for the DWDemo application.

DataWedge Configuration 4 - 3

•

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.

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.

Plug-ins

A plug-in is a software module utilized in DataWedge to extend its functionality to encompass technologies such as bar code scanning. The plug-ins can be categorized into three types based on their operations:

•

Input Plug-ins

An Input Plug-in supports an input device, such as a bar code scanner contained in, or attached to the device.

DataWedge contains base plug-ins for these input devices.

•

Input Plug-ins

Output Plug-ins

Process Plug-ins.

Bar Code Scanner Input Plug-in – The Bar Code Scanner Input Plug-in is responsible for reading data from the integrated bar code scanner and supports different types of bar code readers including laser, imager and internal camera. Raw data read from the bar code scanner can be processed or formatted using Process Plug-ins as required. DataWedge has built-in feedback functionality for the bar code scanner to issue user alerts. The feedback settings can be configured according to user requirement.

MSR Input Plug-in – The Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR) Input Plug-in is responsible for reading data from an MSR. Raw data read from the MSR can be processed or formatted using Process Plug-ins as required. DataWedge has built-in feedback functionality for the MSR 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.

4 - 4 MC67 with Android™ OS Integrator Guide

•

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

UPC EAN Params

NOTE Not all of the options listed below are supported by the selected scanning option. See the DataWedge

Settings

Allows the configuration of the parameters that apply to more than one UPC or EAN decoder.

•

Security Level - The scanner offers four levels of decode security for UPC/EAN bar codes. Select higher

security levels for lower quality bar codes. There is an inverse relationship between security and decode speed, so be sure to choose only that level of security necessary for the application.

• Level 0 - This default setting allows the scanner to operate fastest, while providing sufficient security in decoding “in-spec” UPC/EAN bar codes.

• Level 1 - As bar code quality levels diminish, certain characters become prone to misdecodes before others (i.e., 1, 2, 7, 8). If the scanner is misdecoding poorly printed bar codes, and the misdecodes are limited to these characters, select this security level (default).

• Level 2 - If the scanner is misdecoding poorly printed bar codes, and the misdecodes are not limited to characters 1, 2, 7, and 8, select this security level.

• Level 3 - If the scanner is still misdecoding, select this security level. Be advised, selecting this option is an extreme measure against misdecoding severely out of spec bar codes. Selecting this level of security can significantly impair the decoding ability of the scanner. If this level of security is necessary, try to improve the quality of the bar codes.

Supplemental Mode

• No Supplementals - the scanner is presented with a UPC/EAN plus supplemental symbol, the scanner

decodes UPC/EAN and ignores the supplemental characters (default).

• Supplemental Always - the scanner only decodes UPC/EAN symbols with supplemental characters, and ignores symbols without supplementals.

• Supplements Auto - the scanner decodes UPC/EAN symbols with supplemental characters immediately. If the symbol does not have a supplemental, the scanner must decode the bar code the number of times set via UPC/EAN Supplemental Redundancy before transmitting its data to confirm that there is no supplemental.

• Supplemental Smart - Enables smart supplementals. In this mode the decoder returns the decoded value of the main block right away if it does not belong to one of the following supplemental types: 378, 379, 977, 978, 979, 414, 419, 434 or 439. If the bar code starts with one of the prefixes it searches the

4 - 16 MC67 with Android™ OS Integrator Guide

image more aggressively for a supplemental. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

• Supplemental 378-379 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 378 or 379. Disables reading of supplementals for any other UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 378 or 379. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

• Supplemental 978-979 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 978 or 979. Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 978 or 979. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

• Supplemental 414-419-434-439 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 414, 419, 434 or 439. Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code 4 - 16 not starting with 414, 419, 434 or 439. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

• Supplemental 977 - Enables (auto-discriminate) supplemental for UPC/EAN codes starting with 977. Disables reading of supplementals for another UPC/EAN bar code not starting with 977. Tries to scan the supplemental if it is present. If the supplemental scanning failed, then the main bar code is returned.

•

Retry Count - Retry count for auto-discriminating for supplementals. Possible values are 2 to 20 inclusive. Note that this flag is only considered if Supplemental Mode - UPC EAN is set to one of the following values: Supplementals Auto, Supplementals Smart, Supplementals 378-379, Supplementals 978-979, Supplementals 977 or Supplementals 414-419-434-439 (2 to 20, default 10).

128. A new coupon symbol is composed of a single Data Expanded bar code. The new format offers more

options for purchase values (up to $999.999) and supports complex discount offers as a second purchase requirement. An interim coupon symbol also exists that contain both types of bar codes: UPC/EAN and Databar Expanded. This format accommodates both retailers that do not recognize or use the additional information included in the new coupon symbol, as well as those who can process new coupon symbols.

• Old Coupon Report Mode - Scanning an old coupon symbol reports both UPC and Code 128, scanning is interim coupon symbol reports UPC, and scanning a new coupon symbol reports nothing (no decode).

• New Coupon Report Mode - Scanning an old coupon symbol reports either UPC or Code 128, and scanning an interim coupon symbol or a new coupon symbol reports Databar Expanded.

• Both Coupon Report Modes - Scanning an old coupon symbol reports both UPC and Code 128, and scanning an interim coupon symbol or a new coupon symbol reports Databar Expanded.

•

Ean Zero Extended – Enable this parameter to add five leading zeros to decoded EAN-8 symbols to make

them compatible in format to EAN-13 symbols. Disable this to transmit EAN-8 symbols as is. Default – disabled.
