2 - 40 MC65 User GuideData CaptureThe MC65 offers three types of data capture options:•Imaging•Digital camera.ImagingMC65 with an integrated imager have 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 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 ModesMC65 with an integrated imager support three modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pressing the Scan button.•Decode Mode: In this mode, the MC65 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.•Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in the MC65’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 MC65’s field of view. This is useful for capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.Digital CameraMC65 with an integrated digital camera have 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.The camera 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.NOTE To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the MC65. A sample scanning application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com.NOTE To enable Pick List Mode, download the Control Panel applet from the Support Central web site at http://support.symbol.com. Pick List can also be set in an application using a API command.Preliminary
Using the MC65 2 - 41Scanning ConsiderationsTypically, 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:•RangeAny 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. •AngleScanning 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 MC65 farther away for larger symbols.•Move the MC65 closer for symbols with bars that are close together.Imager Scanning1. Ensure that a scan-enabled application is loaded on the MC65.2. Aim the scan window at the bar code.Figure 2-39 Imager Scanning3. Press the scan button.The red laser aiming pattern or aiming dot turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the bar code is within the area formed by the brackets in the aiming pattern or close to the aiming dot. The aiming dot is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.The Scan/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 MC65 is in Pick List Mode, the imager does not decode the bar code until the crosshair or aiming dot touches the bar code.NOTE Scanning procedures depend on the application and MC65 configuration. An application may use different scanning procedures from the one listed above.Preliminary

The Scan/Decode LED lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully.Using Voice-Over-IPThe MC65 supports Voice over IP over WLAN (VoWLAN) using Motorola or third party voice clients. The MC65 can communicate using VoIP either using the MC65 supports several audio outputs, including back speaker phone, front receiver or handset, and Bluetooth headset.It is recommended that the wireless network use the 802.11a (5 GHz) band for voice applications. Using the 5 GHz band avoids some noise sources that may occur on the 802.11b/g (2.4 GHz) band due to wireless interference.When using a Bluetooth headset with the MC65 and VoWLAN, it is required to use the Bluetooth Headset profile instead of Hands-free profile. Use the buttons on the MC65 to answer and end calls. See Chapter 5, Using Bluetooth for information on setting up a Bluetooth Headset Profile.Taking PhotosTo take a photo:1.

Chapter 3 Using GPS NavigationIntroductionThe MC65 includes Global Positioning System (GPS) technology using the SiRF III chipset. GPS technology is based on a worldwide system of GPS satellites orbiting the earth that continuously transmit digital radio signals. These radio signals contain data on the satellites’ locations and their exact clock time and are used to determine your location on the earth.Software InstallationThird-party GPS navigation software is required. Evaluation software is available from various suppliers. For example; VisualGPS, visit: http://www.visualgps.net/VisualGPSce/If interested in purchasing GPS navigation software check with the GPS software vendor (before purchasing, downloading, or installing any software) to determine that the application is compatible with the MC65. Refer to the application’s user guide for application installation and setup information.MC65 GPS SetupThe GPS-enabled MC65 uses Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1, so the operating system automatically manages access to the GPS receiver to allow multiple programs to simultaneously access GPS data.By default, the MC65 has the following settings:MC65:1. Tap Start > Settings > System > External GPS icon.2. In the Programs tab, the GPS program port is set to None.3. In the Hardware tab, the GPS hardware port is set to COM8.WARNING!When using the MC65 in a vehicle, it is the user’s responsibility to place, secure and use in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage or obstruct their view. It is the responsibility of the driver to operate the vehicle in a safe manner, maintain observation of all driving conditions at all times, and not become distracted by the device to the exclusion of safe driving practices. It is unsafe to operate the controls of the device while driving.Preliminary
3 - 2 MC65 User Guide4. Select 57600 from the Baud rate drop-down list.5. Tap ok to close the Setting window.OperationAcquiring satellite signals may take a few minutes. It is best to be outside and have a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Without a clear view, acquisition takes much longer and could result in the MC65 being unable to compute the initial position quickly. When operating the device indoors access to the GPS signals may be limited or unavailable. GPS Maps on microSD CardsGPS navigation software vendors may sell maps on microSD cards. If using a microSD card with the GPS navigation software install the microSD memory card using procedure in Installing a microSD Card on page 1-4.Answering a Phone Call While Using GPSIf you receive a phone call while using your GPS navigation software:1. Answer the phone call by pressing the Answer button.2. Once you end the phone call, press the End Call button to resume the audio on the GPS software.Losing the GPS Signal While in a VehicleGPS performance on the MC65 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which can block the MC65 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the MC65 where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight is required between the MC65 and the GPS satellites to access information from the satellites.Assisted GPSGPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (aGPS) modes. A Stand-alone GPS receiver downloads data directly from GPS satellites. In challenging environments, such as urban canyons and areas where foliage is very dense, aGPS can be used to improve Time To First Fix (TTTF). By default the MC65 uses the SUPL protocol which requires the use of third party database/service from a carrier. By using GPS Location servers, A-GPS dramatically improves the performance of the TTFF of GPS receivers by providing them with data that they would ordinarily have to download from the GPS satellites. With the aGPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster and more reliably.Refer to the EMDK Help file for information on setting up SUPL on the MC65.NOTE If an application error message appears indicating that the COM port cannot be opened, ensure that a free COM port is selected in the GPS hardware port drop-down list.NOTE When using a GPS navigation application, ensure that the MC65 does not go into suspend mode. If the MC65 suspends then the power to the GPS radio is removed. Upon resume the GPS receiver must reacquire a valid GPS signal, resulting in a a delay of positional information.NOTE Anytime you are using GPS on the MC65 and you receive a phone call, the audio on the GPS navigation software is muted until you finish the call.Preliminary
Chapter 4 Using the PhoneIntroductionUse the MC65 to make phone calls, set up speed dials, keep track of calls, and send text messages. Your wireless service provider may also provide other services such as voice mail, call forwarding, and caller ID.Also use the integrated phone to connect to an ISP or work network in order to browse the Web and read e-mail. Connect to the Internet or work network over High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) or Evolution Data-Optimized (EvDO) using Cellular Line.Making a CallWith the MC65, you can make a call from the phone, contacts, speed dial and call history.Using the Phone KeypadTo make a call using the phone keypad:1.

Chapter 5 Using BluetoothIntroductionBluetooth-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 (30 feet/10 meters) communication and low power consumption. MC65s with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as phones, printers, access points, and other mobile computers. To use the MC65 as a modem, create a dial-up modem connection between a computer and MC65.MC65Adaptive Frequency HoppingAdaptive 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 Motorola mobile computers to operate in any infrastructure. The Bluetooth radio in this MC65 operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5mW and the expected range is 32.8 feet (10 meters). 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.Preliminary
5 - 2 MC65 User GuideSecurityThe current Bluetooth specification defines security at the link level. Application-level security is not specified. This 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 needed 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 that is used to authenticate the devices and create a link key for them. Entering a common PIN number in the devices being paired generates the initialization key. The PIN number 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 number or passkey that is 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 long-distance eavesdropping difficult.Recommendations are:•Perform pairing in a secure environment•Keep PIN codes private and don't store the PIN codes in the mobile computer•Implement application-level security.The Microsoft stack supports Smart-pairing. For detailed information, refer to the Microsoft MSDN.Preliminary

It is normal to see the Bluetooth icon appear and disappear, as well as a wait cursor, when initialization proceeds in all modes.Warm BootPerforming a warm boot on the MC65 turns off Bluetooth.SuspendSuspending the MC65 turns off Bluetooth.ResumeWhen the MC65 resumes, Bluetooth turns on if it was on prior to suspend.NOTE If there is an active Bluetooth connection between the MC65 and another Bluetooth device, the MC65 will not timeout. However, if the user presses the Power button on the MC65, the MC65 will suspend and upon receiving data from a remote Bluetooth device, the MC65 will wake from suspend mode. For example, headset redial or Bluetooth scanner sending data to the MC65.Preliminary
