Charging the Battery
Before using the device for the first time, charge the internal battery until the green Charging/Notification light
emitting diode (LED) remains lit. To charge the device, use a cradle with the appropriate power supply or USB
cable and power supply. For information about the accessories available for the device see Accessories for
more information.
18
Getting Started
The internal battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately four hours and from fully depleted to
100% in approximately five hours.
NOTE: In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge lasts for approximately
10 hours of use.
Use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room temperature with the device in sleep mode.
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). The device or accessory always performs
battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37°C (+98°F))
the device or accessory may for small periods of time alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep
the battery at acceptable temperatures. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to
abnormal temperatures via its LED and a notification appears on the display.
To charge the internal battery:
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
2. Insert the device into a cradle or attach to a USB cable. The device turns on and begins charging. The
Charging/Notification LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged.

IMPORTANT: Use only the Zebra USB-C Cable for charging.

PTT Express Voice Client
NOTE: PTT Express Voice Client enables Push-To-Talk (PTT) communication between disparate enterprise devices. Le-
veraging existing Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) infrastructure, PTT Express delivers simple PTT communication
without requiring voice communication server.
• Group Call: Press and hold the PTT (Talk) button to start communicating with other voice client users.
• Private Response: Double-press the PTT button to respond to the originator of the last broadcast or to
make a Private Response.
PTT Audible Indicators
The following tones provide helpful cues when using the voice client.
• Talk Tone: Double chirp. Plays when the Talk button is depressed. This is a prompt for the user to start
talking.
• Access Tone: Single beep. Plays when another user just finished a broadcast or response. The user is
now able to initiate a Group Broadcast or Private Response.
• Busy Tone: Continuous tone. Plays when the Talk button is depressed and another user is already
communicating on the same talkgroup. Plays after the maximum allowed talk time is reached (60 seconds).
• Network Tone:
• Three increasing pitch beeps. Plays when PTT Express acquires the WLAN connection and the service
is enabled.
• Three decreasing pitch beeps. Plays when PTT Express loses the WLAN connection or the service is
disabled.

Data Capture
The device supports data capture using:
• integrated imager
• SE4710 scan engine
• SE2100 scan engine
• RS507 Hands-free Imager
• RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner.
IMPORTANT: To determine the integrated scan engine in the device, go to Settings >System > About phone
> Hardware components > Scanner.
Imaging
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. With an integrated 2D imager, the device 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.
Operational Modes
The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each
mode by pressing the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes 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 barcode.
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 barcode when more than one
barcode is in the device’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over
the required barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing
multiple barcodes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type
(either 1D or 2D).
91
Data Capture
NOTE: To enable Basic MultiBarcode Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.
• Basic MultiBarcode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode a specific number of
unique barcodes within its field of view. The device remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan
button, or until it decodes all the barcodes. Available on integrated SE2100 or SE4710 imagers only.
• The device attempts to scan the programmed number of unique barcodes (from 2 through 10).
• If there are duplicate barcodes (same symbology type and data), only one of the duplicate barcodes is
decoded and the remainder are ignored. If the label has two duplicate barcodes plus another two
different barcodes, a maximum of three barcodes will be decoded from that label; one will be ignored as
a duplicate.
• Barcodes can be of multiple symbology types and still be acquired together. For example, if the
specified quantity for a Basic MultiBarcode scan is four, two barcodes can be symbology type Code 128
and the other two can be symbology type Code 39.
• If the specified number of unique barcodes is not initially in view of the device, the device will not decode
any data until the device is moved to capture the additional barcode(s) or time out occurs. If the device
field of view contains a number of barcodes greater than the specified quantity, the device randomly
decodes barcode(s) until the specified number of unique barcodes is reached. For example, if the count
is set to two and eight barcodes are in the field of view, the device decodes the first two unique barcodes
it sees, returning the data in random order.
• Basic MultiBarcode Mode does not support concatenated barcodes.

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 laser beams reflect directly back into the
scanner from the barcode, this specular reflection can blind the scanner. 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.
