About the Battery

Charge the Battery

The computer uses a rechargeable 3.6 V Li-ion battery as its main

power source. The battery has a 14.6 watt hour capacity. Several

factors determine the life of your battery, such as display brightness,

display timeout, input device, extreme temperature, and your usage.

ecom recommends that you keep the battery charged at all times to

prevent data loss. When you change the battery, the computer

automatically goes into a power-off state and then cold boots.

Contact your local sales representative for replacement batteries.

Caution: The battery used in this device may present a fire or

chemical burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it,

heat it above 100 °C (212 °F), or incinerate it. Dispose of used

batteries promptly. Keep away from children.

Caution: Only the ex-battery pack AM CT50 -Ex is allowed to be used.

For more detailed information see the separate Safety Instructions.

Warning: The battery pack must not be removed or installed inside

the ex-hazardous area!

The battery may only be charged outside the ex-hazardous area.

About the Scanner

The internal scanner can read 1D and 2D bar code symbologies,

composite symbologies, and postal codes. It also supports omni-

directional scanning for greater flexibility in real-world settings. The

image engine can also capture black and white images, such as

signatures and pictures of damaged inventory.

How to Scan Bar Codes as Keyboard Input

The scan wedge feature sends scanned bar code data to an active

application as Android keypad input. To scan a bar code as keyboard

input, open an application that accepts text input and then scan a bar

code. By default, scan wedging is enabled on the computer.

You can use applications that are coded to use the scanner or

applications that receive data through the scan wedge feature. If an

application claims the scanner through the BarcodeReader API, the

scan wedge feature is temporarily disabled. You can find information on

how to create custom applications for the computer in the

Software

Development Kit (SDK) available for download at

www.honeywellaidc.com.

Data Processing Settings

processed by the computer.

Data Processing Settings

Setting Description Default

Wedge Enable or disable sending the bar code data as Android

KeyEvents when sending data to the active application.

The ENTER_DELAY command may be used to insert a

delay between barcodes when wedging the barcode

data into the keyboard buffer. More specifically, a delay

of ENTER_DELAY is inserted whenever the Wedge

encounters a carriage return, line feed, or tab key. Some

applications, such as Excel, may require additional

processing time when advancing to the next input field.

Without a delay, data may arrive faster than the

application can process the data. You can use the

POSTAMBLE command to add a line feed at the end of

each bar code. The units for ENTER_DELAY are

milliseconds. The default value is 200ms.

Customers set wedge mode configuration commands
