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 Accessories
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.
Procedure:
on page 105 for more information.
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.

Data Capture
The MC67 offers the following types of data capture options:
Imaging
•
• Digital camera
• RS507 Hands-free Imager.
Note:
By default, the good decode beep is set to system volume (Music and Media). The good decode beep can
be set to another sound (Notifications or Alarms) and the volume can be independently controlled. See the
DataWedge section in the MC67 Integrator Guide for more information.
81 | Data Capture
DataWedge is installed and enabled on the MC67 by default.
Imaging
The MC67 with an integrated imager 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.
• The ability to capture and download images to a host for a variety of imaging applications.
• 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 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.
Operational Modes
The MC67 with an integrated imager supports three modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pressing
the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the MC67 attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes 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 bar code.
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 bar code when more than one bar code is in
the MC67 ’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the required bar code to
decode only this bar code. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple bar codes and manufacturing or
transport labels containing more than one bar code type (either 1D or 2D).
• Image Capture Mode: Use this mode to capture an image within the
capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.

Digital Camera
The MC67 with an integrated camera based bar code scanning solution 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 aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation
• Taking photos and recording videos.
The solution uses the advanced camera technology to take a digital picture of a bar code, 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 and a few quick trial efforts master it. However,
consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
• Range: Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances
from the bar code. This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics. Scanning within
range brings 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 bar codes being scanned.
• Angle: Scanning angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the
scanner from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner. To avoid this, scan the bar code so that
the beam does not bounce directly back. But don’t 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 MC67 farther away for larger symbols
•
• Move the MC67 closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
Note: Scanning procedures depend on the application and
different scanning procedures from the one listed above.
MC67 configuration. An application may use
Imager Scanning
To read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The MC67 contains the DataWedge application that allows
the user to enable the imager, decode the bar code data and display the bar code content.
Procedure:
1 Ensure that an application is open on the MC67 and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2 Point the exit window on the top of the MC67 at a bar code.
Figure 58: Imager Scanning
Data Capture | 83
3 Press and hold the scan button.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.

Wireless Local Area Networks
Wireless local area networks (WLANs) allow the MC67 to communicate wirelessly inside a building. Before using
the MC67 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 MC67 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 MC67 to match the security scheme.
The MC67 supports the following WLAN security options:
Open
•
• Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP).
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)/WPA2 Personal (PSK).
• Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).
- Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP).

Configuring for a Proxy Server
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers.
A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource,
available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example,
it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource
by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client.

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 (10 meters (32.8 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 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 meters (32.8 ft.). 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: It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b
operation is required.
Security
Wireless | 99
The current Bluetooth
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 longdistance 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.
