Charging the Battery

CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page 4-3.

Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery


Before using the wearable terminal for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charge Status LED
remains lit (see Table 1-3 on page 1-8 for charge status indications).

The wearable terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the main
battery whether or not the wearable terminal is operating or is in suspend mode. The memory backup battery
retains data in memory for at least 30 minutes when the wearable terminal's main battery is removed or fully
discharged. When the wearable terminal is used for the first time or after the memory backup battery has fully
discharged, the memory backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. Do not remove the main
battery from the wearable terminal for 15 hours to ensure that the memory backup battery fully charges. If the main
battery is removed from the wearable terminal or the main battery is fully discharged, the memory backup battery
completely discharges in several hours.

When the wearable terminal reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery
retains data in memory for at least 24 hours.

NOTE Do not remove the main battery within the first 15 hours of use. If the main battery is removed before the
backup battery is fully charged, data may be lost.

Charge the wearable terminal with an installed main battery using either the Single Slot USB cradle or the Four Slot
Ethernet cradle.

To charge the main battery:

1. Ensure the cradle used to charge the main battery is connected to the appropriate power source.

2. Insert the wearable terminal into a cradle.

3. The wearable terminal starts to charge automatically. The amber Charge Status LED lights to indicate the

Data Capture
Wearable terminals used with an optional wearable laser scanner allow collection of data by scanning one
dimensional bar codes.

Laser Scanning
Wearable terminals with an optional wearable laser scanner have the following features:

• Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, and 1-D code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.

Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan/decode and a few quick trial efforts master it. However, two
important considerations can be used to optimize any 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. However, the situation is complicated by the availability of various integrated scanning modules. The
best way to specify the appropriate working range per bar code density is through a chart called a decode zone
for each scan module. A decode zone simply plots working range as a function of minimum element widths of
bar code symbols.
• 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.

NOTE Contact the Symbol Support Center if chronic scanning difficulties develop. Decoding of properly printed bar
codes should be quick and effortless.

Scanning Bar Codes


1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the wearable terminal.
2. Aim the scan exit window at the bar code.

3. Press the trigger.


• Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. The red scan LED lights to indicate that the laser is
on. The green scan LED lights. An audible beep might sound, if the application determines, to indicate the
bar code was decoded successfully.
2 - 20 WT4070/90 Wearable Terminal User Guide

Figure 2-17 Laser Scanner Aiming Pattern

4. Release the trigger.

Scanning Tips
Optimal scanning distance varies with bar code density and scanner optics.

• Hold the scanner farther away for larger symbols.


• Move the scanner closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
NOTE Scanning procedures depend on the application and wearable terminal configuration. An application may
use different scanning procedures from the one listed above.

Scan LED Indicator


The LED on the scanner provides a visual indication of the scan status.

Table 2-9 Scan LED Indicators

LED Status Indication

Off Not scanning.

Solid Red Laser enabled, scanning in process.


Solid Green Successful decode.

Imaging
The wearable terminal with an optional RS507 imager has the following features:

• Omnidirectional (360°) 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 for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses digital camera technology to take a digital picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its
memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.

Operational Modes
The wearable terminal with optional RS507 imager supports three modes of operation, listed below. Activate each
mode pressing the Scan button.

• Decode Mode: In this mode, the RS507 attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of
view. The imager remains in this mode as long as you hold the scan button, or until it decodes a bar code.
Using the Wearable Terminal 2 - 21

NOTE To enable Pick List Mode, download the Control Panel applet from the Support Central web site at
http://www.motorola.com/enterprisemobility/support. Pick List can also be set in an application using a API
command.

• Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in
the RS507’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair center dot over the required bar
code to decode only that 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 RS507’s field of view. This is useful for
capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.

Imager Scanning
1. Ensure that a scan-enabled application is loaded on the wearable terminal.
2. Press and hold the scan button.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the cross-hair is on top of the bar code.
The Decode LED lights red to indicate that scanning is in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by
default, to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully. Note that when the RS507 is in Pick List Mode, the
imager does not decode the bar code until the crosshair center dot touches the bar code.

Figure 2-18 Imager Aiming Pattern

Figure 2-19 Pick List Mode with Multiple Bar Codes

3. Release the scan button.

NOTE Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The RS507 repeats the steps required to take a digital
picture (image) of a poor or difficult bar code as long as the scan button remains pressed.

Freezer Pouch

NOTE Wearable computers with standard capacity batteries must use the Standard Capacity Battery Freezer Pouch
while wearable computers with extended capacity batteries must use the Extended Capacity Battery Freezer
Pouch. See Accessories on page 1-3 for more information.

CAUTION Do not use the wearable terminal with touch screen in the freezer pouch or in environments that are
below -20°C (-4°F).

The freezer pouch allows the user to use the wearable terminal in a freezer environment on the hip or wrist for use
in voice picking applications. An RS309 or RS409 scanner with an extended cable is required when mounting the
freezer pouch on the hip mount, if scanning is also part of the application.

In order to keep the wearable terminal at a safe operating temperature in a meat or ice cream freezer, the freezer
pouch insulates the wearable terminal to keep the heat generated by the wearable terminal within the pouch. The
pouch is not heated. There are no batteries to worry about or electronics within the pouch.

The freezer pouch can be either hip-mounted or wrist-mounted. For hip-mounting, there is a belt loop on its back
for attached a belt (sold separately). For wrist-mounting, customers can buy either a set of standard-length or
longer-length wrist straps and use them with the pouch. The longer-length wrist straps are recommended for
wrist-mounting over coats. The freezer pouch has openings on each side for wearable scanners and headset
adapters.

While the freezer pouch is designed to allow workers to use the wearable terminal in meat and ice cream freezers,
there are some very important limitations to follow:

• Do not use in environments that are below -30°C (-22°F).


• Do not allow the wearable terminal (with or without the freezer pouch) to remain in the suspend mode in
environments below -20°C (-4°F) for more than 10 minutes. This prevents the wearable terminal from cooling
down to the ambient freezer temperature. The pouch maintains the wearable terminal at a sufficient
temperature while it is in use, but lengthy periods of inactivity bring the wearable terminal below its operating
temperature.
• Do not store wearable terminals in the meat or ice cream freezer. As explained above, this would allow the
wearable terminals to chill to the ambient freezer temperature, which is below their operating temperature.
Furthermore, if batteries were left in wearable terminals stored in the freezer, the batteries themselves could
freeze, which could damage them. At the least, they would not function while frozen.
• Batteries cannot be charged below 0°C (32°F). Motorola cradles and battery chargers have an automatic
shut-off to insure this.
• If using wearable scanners with the wearable terminal in the meat or ice cream freezer for a shift, remember
that the RS309 freezer configuration is the correct scanner to choose, due to its lower operating temperature
range and its desiccant pack to remove condensation.

Slide the wearable terminal into the freezer pouch.

B-2 WT4090 Wearable Terminal User Guide
Glossary

A
API. An interface by means of which one software component communicates with or controls another. Usually used to refer
to services provided by one software component to another, usually via software interrupts or function calls

Application Programming Interface. See API.

ANSI Terminal. A display terminal that follows commands in the ANSI standard terminal language. For example, it uses
escape sequences to control the cursor, clear the screen and set colors. Communications programs support the ANSI
terminal mode and often default to this terminal emulation for dial-up connections to online services.

ASCII. American Standard Code for Information Interchange. A 7 bit-plus-parity code representing 128 letters, numerals,
punctuation marks and control characters. It is a standard data transmission code in the U.S.

B
Bar. The dark element in a printed bar code symbol.

Bar Code. A pattern of variable-width bars and spaces which represents numeric or alphanumeric data in machine-readable
form. The general format of a bar code symbol consists of a leading margin, start character, data or message character,
check character (if any), stop character, and trailing margin. Within this framework, each recognizable symbology uses
its own unique format. See Symbology.

Bit. Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data.
The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning.

Bits per Second (bps). Bits transmitted or received.

Bit. Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data.
The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning.

bps. See Bits Per Second.


Glossary - 2 WT4090 Wearable Terminal User Guide

Byte. On an addressable boundary, eight adjacent binary digits (0 and 1) combined in a pattern to represent a specific
character or numeric value. Bits are numbered from the right, 0 through 7, with bit 0 the low-order bit. One byte in
memory is used to store one ASCII character.

boot or boot-up. The process a computer goes through when it starts. During boot-up, the computer can run self-diagnostic
tests and configure hardware and software.

C
CDRH. Center for Devices and Radiological Health. A federal agency responsible for regulating laser product safety. This
agency specifies various laser operation classes based on power output during operation.

CDRH Class 1. This is the lowest power CDRH laser classification. This class is considered intrinsically safe, even if all laser
output were directed into the eye's pupil. There are no special operating procedures for this class.

CDRH Class 2. No additional software mechanisms are needed to conform to this limit. Laser operation in this class poses
no danger for unintentional direct human exposure.

Character. A pattern of bars and spaces which either directly represents data or indicates a control function, such as a
number, letter, punctuation mark, or communications control contained in a message.

Codabar. A discrete self-checking code with a character set consisting of digits 0 to 9 and six additional characters: (-$:/,+).

Code 128. A high density symbology which allows the controller to encode all 128 ASCII characters without adding extra
symbol elements.

Code 3 of 9 (Code 39). A versatile and widely used alphanumeric bar code symbology with a set of 43 character types,
including all uppercase letters, numerals from 0 to 9 and 7 special characters (space, minus (-), plus (+), period (.), dollar
sign ($), slash (/), and percent (%)). The code name is derived from the fact that 3 of 9 elements representing a character
are wide, while the remaining 6 are narrow.

Code 93. An industrial symbology compatible with Code 39 but offering a full character ASCII set and a higher coding
density than Code 39.

Cold Boot. A cold boot restarts the wearable terminal and erases all user stored records and entries.

COM port. Communication port; ports are identified by number, e.g., COM1, COM2.

Cradle. A cradle is used for charging the terminal battery and for communicating with a host computer, and provides a
storage place for the terminal when not in use.

D
DCP. See Device Configuration Package.

Decode. To recognize a bar code symbology (e.g., UPC/EAN) and then analyze the content of the specific bar code
scanned.
Glossary - 3

Decode Algorithm. A decoding scheme that converts pulse widths into data representation of the letters or numbers
encoded within a bar code symbol.

Decryption. Decryption is the decoding and unscrambling of received encrypted data. Also see, Encryption and Key.

Depth of Field. The range between minimum and maximum distances at which a scanner can read a symbol with a certain
minimum element width.

Device Configuration Package. The Symbol Device Configuration Package provides the Product Reference Guide (PRG),
flash partitions, Terminal Configuration Manager (TCM) and the associated TCM scripts. With this package hex images
that represent flash partitions can be created and downloaded to the wearable terminal.

Discrete 2 of 5. A binary bar code symbology representing each character by a group of five bars, two of which are wide.
The location of wide bars in the group determines which character is encoded; spaces are insignificant. Only numeric
characters (0 to 9) and START/STOP characters may be encoded.

E
EAN. European Article Number. This European/International version of the UPC provides its own coding format and
symbology standards. Element dimensions are specified metrically. EAN is used primarily in retail.

ENQ (RS-232). ENQ software handshaking is also supported for the data sent to the host.

ESD. Electro-Static Discharge

F
Flash Disk. An additional megabyte of non-volatile memory for storing application and configuration files.

Flash Memory. Flash memory is nonvolatile, semi-permanent storage that can be electronically erased in the circuit and
reprogrammed. Wearable terminals use Flash memory to store the operating system (ROM-DOS), the terminal
emulators, and the Citrix ICA Client for DOS.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP). A TCP/IP application protocol governing file transfer via network or telephone lines. See
TCP/IP.

FTP. See File Transfer Protocol.

Flash Memory. Flash memory is responsible for storing the system firmware and is non-volatile. If the system power is
interrupted the data is not be lost.

H

operation classes based on power output during operation.

IEC (825) Class 1. This is the lowest power IEC laser classification. Conformity is ensured through a software restriction of
120 seconds of laser operation within any 1000 second window and an automatic laser shutdown if the scanner's
oscillating mirror fails.

IEEE Address. See MAC Address.

Interleaved 2 of 5. A binary bar code symbology representing character pairs in groups of five bars and five interleaved
spaces. Interleaving provides for greater information density. The location of wide elements (bar/spaces) within each

characteristics, and signal meanings. Types of interfaces include RS-232 and PCMCIA.

Input/Output Ports. I/O ports are primarily dedicated to passing information into or out of the terminal’s memory. Wearable
terminals include Serial and USB ports.

IP. Internet Protocol. The IP part of the TCP/IP communications protocol. IP implements the network layer (layer 3) of the
protocol, which contains a network address and is used to route a message to a different network or subnetwork. IP
accepts “packets” from the layer 4 transport protocol (TCP or UDP), adds its own header to it and delivers a “datagram”
to the layer 2 data link protocol. It may also break the packet into fragments to support the maximum transmission unit
(MTU) of the network.

IP Address. (Internet Protocol address) The address of a computer attached to an IP network. Every client and server
station must have a unique IP address. A 32-bit address used by a computer on a IP network. Client workstations have
either a permanent address or one that is dynamically assigned to them each session. IP addresses are written as four
sets of numbers separated by periods; for example, 204.171.64.2.

IPX/SPX. Internet Package Exchange/Sequential Packet Exchange. A communications protocol for Novell. IPX is Novell’s
Layer 3 protocol, similar to XNS and IP, and used in NetWare networks. SPX is Novell's version of the Xerox SPP

the Internet. SSL uses a program layer located between the Internet's Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Transport
Control Protocol (TCP) layers. SSL is included as part of both the Microsoft and Netscape browsers and most Web
server products. Developed by Netscape, SSL also gained the support of Microsoft and other Internet client/server
developers as well and became the de facto standard until evolving into Transport Layer Security. The “sockets” part of
the term refers to the sockets method of passing data back and forth between a client and a server program in a network
or between program layers in the same computer. SSL uses the public-and-private key encryption system from RSA,
which also includes the use of a digital certificate.

Glossary - 8 WT4090 Wearable Terminal User Guide

T
TCP/IP. (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) A communications protocol used to internetwork dissimilar
systems. This standard is the protocol of the Internet and has become the global standard for communications. TCP
provides transport functions, which ensures that the total amount of bytes sent is received correctly at the other end.
UDP is an alternate transport that does not guarantee delivery. It is widely used for real-time voice and video
transmissions where erroneous packets are not retransmitted. IP provides the routing mechanism. TCP/IP is a routable
protocol, which means that all messages contain not only the address of the destination station, but the address of a
destination network. This allows TCP/IP messages to be sent to multiple networks within an organization or around the
world, hence its use in the worldwide Internet. Every client and server in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address, which
is either permanently assigned or dynamically assigned at startup.

Telnet. A terminal emulation protocol commonly used on the Internet and TCP/IP-based networks. It allows a user at a
terminal or computer to log onto a remote device and run a program.

Terminal. See Wearable Terminal.

Terminal Emulation. A “terminal emulation” emulates a character-based mainframe session on a remote non-mainframe
terminal, including all display features, commands and function keys. The WT4090 Series supports Terminal Emulations
in 3270, 5250 and VT220.

TFTP. (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) A version of the TCP/IP FTP (File Transfer Protocol) protocol that has no directory or
password capability. It is the protocol used for upgrading firmware, downloading software and remote booting of diskless
devices.

Tolerance. Allowable deviation from the nominal bar or space width.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. See TCP/IP.

Transport Layer Security (TLS). TLS is a protocol that ensures privacy between communicating applications and their
users on the Internet. When a server and client communicate, TLS ensures that no third party may eavesdrop or tamper
with any message. TLS is the successor to the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

Trivial File Transfer Protocol. See TFTP.

U
UPC. Universal Product Code. A relatively complex numeric symbology. Each character consists of two bars and two
spaces, each of which is any of four widths. The standard symbology for retail food packages in the United States.

UDP. User Datagram Protocol. A protocol within the IP protocol suite that is used in place of TCP when a reliable delivery
is not required. For example, UDP is used for real-time audio and video traffic where lost packets are simply ignored,
because there is no time to retransmit. If UDP is used and a reliable delivery is required, packet sequence checking and
error notification must be written into the applications.
Glossary - 9

U
Visible Laser Diode (VLD). A solid state device which produces visible laser light.

W
Warm Boot. A warm boot restarts the wearable terminal by closing all running programs. All data that is not saved to flash
