NEO Hand-Held Computer Features  
Important: These statements provide particularly important instructions or additional  
information that is critical to the operation of the equipment.  
Warning: These statements provide critical information that may prevent physical  
injury, equipment damage or data loss.

NEO Hand-Held Computer Features  
Important: For all safety, regulatory and warranty information, refer to the “NEO  
Hand-Held Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide”, PN 8000175.  
NEO is a compact, ruggedized hand-held computer running the Microsoft Windows CE 5.0  
operating system. It is intended for use in commercial and light industrial applications. NEO  
can be ordered with or without a radio. Without a Wi-Fi radio, it operates as a batch or un-  
connected computer. With a Wi-Fi radio installed, NEO operates as a connected computer,  
delivering real time wireless data transactions. A number of 1D bar code input methodolo-  
gies are supported by the scanner and imager available with this hand-held computer.  
Optimization for specific operational environments is supported with a wide range of pe-  
ripheral options and carrying accessories.  
The unique tilted screen design on this hand-held computer makes the display content  
readily visible. This means that the operator can scan a bar code and view the results on the  
display in one movement – no need to manually tilt the unit to view the results after each  
scan. In addition, the tilted screen in conjunction with the protective rib at the base of the  
keyboard allows the unit to be placed facedown safely with no danger of an accidental  
key press.  
Note: For complete NEO hand-held computer specifications, refer to “Specifications” on  
page 199.

Preparing NEO For Operation  
2.1  
Preparing NEO For Operation  
2.1.1  
The Battery  
NEO is powered with a 3000 mAh Lithium-ion Battery, Model No. WA3020, and is com-  
patible with battery Model No. WA3006.  
Warning: Before charging the battery, it is critical that you review the safety guidelines  
in the ‘NEO Hand-Held Computer (Model No. PX750) Regulatory &  
Warranty Guide’, PN 8000175.  
2.1.1.1 Charging The Main Battery  
Battery packs shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% and must be fully  
charged prior to use. Batteries can be charged using a variety of docking stations along with  
a NEO internal charger. When using the internal charger, a suitable power source is required.  
All docking stations are described in Chapter 6: “Peripheral Devices & Accessories” begin-  
ning on page 187.  
Note: In order to maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, a battery must be  
charged for at least two hours while installed in the hand-held; however, if you are  
charging a spare battery (not installed in the hand-held), the real time clock three  
day backup cannot be maintained until a charged battery is installed in the hand-  
held computer for at least two hours.  
2.1.2  
Backup Battery Power  
A super capacitor provides a minimum of 10 minutes of suspend mode backup power to  
NEO to protect data while you swap in a new battery; all unnecessary draws on power such  
as the display and CPU are shut down to preserve power.  
Important: When you initially power up the hand-held, leave the battery in the unit for a  
minimum of 2 minutes to allow the super capacitor to reach full capacity.  
2.2  
Switching NEO On And Off  
2.2.1  
Installing The Battery And Switching The Unit On  
•

prior to the suspend state is displayed.  
2.2.2  
Switching The Unit Off (Suspend)  
•
Press the [FN/BLUE] key, and then press [ENTER].  
2.3  
Calibrating The Touchscreen  
Note: Keep in mind that the touchscreen function can be turned off (see “Touch” on  
page 97).  
The touchscreen is factory-calibrated and ready-to-go; however, over time the touchscreen  
operating parameters may change, and may need to be recalibrated for correct operation.  
Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 35 for details.  
2.4  
Wireless Networking  
NEO contains an integrated 802.11b/g radio module. The Wi-Fi Config application is used  
to configure NEO for one or more wireless network profiles. A network profile contains set-  
tings for SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security options.  
Note: In most situations, the configuration of your 802.11 radio will require parameter set-  
ting and access keys from a network administrator.

Wi-Fi Config Tab  
•
To configure the radio for a wireless network, tap on the Configure tab.  
Connect: Used to connect to an already existing wireless network configuration.  
Add New: Used to create a new wireless network configuration.  
Edit: Used to change values in an already existing wireless network configuration.  
Remove: Used to delete a wireless network configuration.  
Scan: Used to detect and list available wireless networks. You can highlight a network  
in the list, and tap on Add New to activate the network.  
There are two methods available when configuring a radio network – you can either scan for  
an existing network or manually create a network. If you tap on the Scan button, a list of  
networks detected by the radio are displayed. Highlighting one of the listed networks and  
tapping on the Add New button creates a new profile that is completed based on the security  
capabilities detected by the radio. You may need to add additional information, depending  
on your network requirements.  
If you tap on the Add New button rather than the Scan button, you can create a  
network manually.  
Important: The steps below describe how to manually create a network. Keep in mind  
that this is intended only as an example and may vary from your own  
network requirements. If, for example, you are using a different type of secu-  
rity for your network, the fields you complete may not match those described  
here.

Wi-Fi Config Tab  
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)  
WEP provides static security to prevent others from accidentally accessing your network. If  
you choose this option, you can specify the type of WEP authentication – Open or Shared,  
the WEP security key length – 64 bit or 128 bit and the key type – ASCII or Hex. WEP Key  
fields are also provided where you can specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an  
equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active WEP key on the  
access point.  
WPA & WPA2 Personal PSK (Pre-Shared Key)  
When PSK is selected, either WPA Personal PSK or WPA2 Personal PSK – a shared key  
must be configured on both the access point and the hand-held computer. One of the follow-  
ing can be chosen from the Encryption dropdown menu: TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES.  
802.1X, WAP & WAP2 Enterprise And CCKM  
These authentication modes use 802.1X and with EAP authentication. When 802.1X is se-  
lected, NEO uses WEP encryption with automatic (as opposed to static) keying. For the  
others, the user may choose TKIP, AES or TKIP+AES encryption.  
2.4.2.2 EAP  
This menu allows you to choose the EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) type used for  
802.1x authentication to an access point.  
The following EAP types are supported by Wi-Fi Config:  
•
TLS: Provides strong security via the use of client certificates for user authentication.

Chapter 2: Basic Checkout  
Wi-Fi Config Tab  
•
PEAPv0-MSCHAPv2: Provides secure user authentication by using a TLS tunnel to  
encrypt EAP traffic. MSCHAPv2 is used as the inner authentication method. This is  
appropriate for use against Windows Active Directory and domains.  
•
•
PEAP-GTC: PEAP authentication using GTC as the inner method which utilizes one  
time passwords (OTPs) for authentication against OTP data bases such as SecureID.  
LEAP: Is an authentication method for use with Cisco WLAN access points. LEAP  
does not require the use of server or client certificates. LEAP supports Windows Active  
Directory and domains but requires the use of strong passwords to avoid vulnerability to  
off-line dictionary attacks.  
•
FAST-MSCHAPv2: Is a successor to LEAP and does not require strong passwords to  
protect against off-line dictionary attacks. Like LEAP, EAP-FAST does not require the  
use of server or client certificates and supports Windows Active Directory and domains.  
Server Certificate Verification  
When the Verify Server Certificate box is checked, NEO will verify the certificate provided  
by the authentication server during the authentication process. This requires that an appro-  
priate certificate be manually installed on NEO for the verification.  
2.4.2.3 Encryption  
The Encryption menu allows you to choose the type of encryption that will be used to  
protect transmitted data. Choose an Encryption method valid for your network from the  
dropdown menu. Only the Encryption options that are compatible with the type of Auth.  
Mode you’ve chosen will be listed. In fact, in some cases, this menu will not be available  
at all.

Data Transfer Between The PC And The Hand-Held  
Data transfer options vary slightly depending on the type of operating system installed in  
®
®
your PC. Microsoft ActiveSync is PC connectivity software that can be used to connect  
your hand-held to PCs running this software. ActiveSync works only with the Windows XP  
SP2 operating system or earlier.  
®
®
If the Microsoft Vista operating system is installed in your PC, ActiveSync is not re-  
quired to transfer data between NEO and your PC.  
By connecting NEO to a PC with a cable, you can:  
•
•
View NEO files from Windows Explorer.  
Drag and drop files between NEO and the PC in the same way that you would between  
PC drives.  
•
Back up NEO files to the PC, then restore them from the PC to the hand-held again, if  
needed, and so on.

The Battery  
The hand-held operates with a Lithium-ion Battery, Model No. WA3020 and is also compat-  
ible with battery Model No. WA3006. Preparing the unit for operation requires that a battery  
pack be charged and installed in NEO.  
3.2.1  
Battery Safety  
Important: Before attempting to install, use or charge the battery pack, it is critical that  
you review and follow the important safety guidelines in NEO Hand-Held  
Computer Regulatory & Warranty Guide, PN 8000175.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO  
Removing The Battery Pack  
3.2.2  
Removing The Battery Pack  
Important: To protect against data loss, the NEO battery cover is equipped with a mag-  
netic sensor; this sensor detects when the battery door is opened and  
automatically places the hand-held computer into suspend mode so that  
you can safely remove the battery.  
For details about unlatching the battery cover, review “Installing The Battery And Switching  
The Unit On” on page 12.  
3.2.2.1 Battery Swap Time  
Assuming the default power saving parameters and battery reserve level have not been al-  
tered, battery swap time is 10 minutes—you will not lose data if the battery is replaced  
within this time frame.  
The Suspend Threshold adjustment in the Power Properties tab allows you to determine the  
battery capacity at which the hand-held will be shut down. If left at the default value,  
Maximum Operating Time, the unit will run until the battery is completely empty; the RAM  
is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose Maximum Backup Time, the hand-  
held shuts off with more energy left in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer  
period of time.  
Refer to “Suspend Threshold” on page 94 for details about reserving battery power for data  
backup purposes.  
3.2.3  
Charging The Battery  
Batteries shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% of capacity. They must  
be fully charged prior to use.  
3.2.3.1 Charging Options  
Important: FOR DETAILED INFORMATION about charging options, refer to  
Chapter 6: “Peripheral Devices & Accessories”.  
Lithium-ion batteries must be charged before use. These batteries can be charged with a  
variety of adaptors and docking stations. These include:  
•
AC Wall Adaptor (Model No. PX3010)—operates as an AC power source and when  
used in conjunction with PX3001 or PX3054, also charges the battery installed in  
the unit.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO  
Switching The Hand-Held On And Off  
•
•
Cigarette Lighter Adaptor (Model No. PX3056) when used with a USB/DC Power  
Adaptor (Model No. PX3054).  
Desktop Docking Station (Model # PX3001)—operates as both a charger and a docking  
station. Operating as a charger, both the battery installed in the hand-held and a spare  
battery can be charged simultaneously.  
•
Quad Docking Station—(Model # PX3004) can charge the battery of up to four NEOs  
inserted in the docking station.  
The charge time required to make the NEO ready for use varies depending on the type of  
docking station used. A NEO inserted in docking station requires 3 hours to charge the  
battery to 75% capacity. NEO is equipped with an intelligent charging system that protects  
the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process when the battery is at  
maximum capacity.  
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO in suspend mode. Additional  
peripherals and other power consumption features will alter the specified charge  
time.  
Note: Refer to “Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time” on page 40 for addi-  
tional information about the battery.  
Important: To avoid damaging the battery, the charge process will not begin until the  
battery temperature is between 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).  
3.3  
Switching The Hand-Held On And Off  
•
To switch the unit on, press and hold down the [ENTER] key for at least one second.  
•
When the LED flashes green, release the [ENTER] key.  
The startup screen is displayed.  
Note: If NEO is in suspend state, pressing [ENTER] ‘wakes’ the unit from this state. The  
screen in which you were working before the computer entered suspend state is  
displayed.  
Switching Off NEO (Suspend)  
Important: Keep in mind that turning off NEO does not result in a complete reboot;  
rather, the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the unit is  
turned on from suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.

The Keyboard  
•
To switch the unit off, press [FN/BLUE] [ENTER].  
3.4  
The Keyboard  
Two keyboard options are available:  
•
•
48-key alpha-numeric keyboard. This keyboard is only available with connected hand-  
helds – units equipped with 802.11b/g radios.  
26-key numeric keyboard. This option is available for both variants of NEO –  
connected hand-helds (described above) and batch (unconnected) hand-helds not  
equipped with 802.11b/g radios.  
Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop computer. Where a key or  
key function is not consistent with the PC keyboard, the differences are noted.  
The [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and  
system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print on the  
keyboard keys.  
3.4.1  
Modifier Keys  
The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] keys are modifier keys.  
Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed.  
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that  
they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be  
pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.  
3.4.1.1 Activating Modifier Keys  
When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the  
bottom of the hand-held screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is dis-  
played at the bottom of the unit screen. Once the next key is pressed, the modifier key  
becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.  
Keep in mind, however, that the ‘One Shot’ function allows you to determine how many key  
presses will lock a modifier key ‘on’ – one press or two. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot  
Modes” on page 82 for details.  
3.4.1.2 Locking Modifier Keys  
When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’ modifier key is displayed  
in uppercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing the [CTRL] key twice locks it on –  
it is displayed as CTRL KEY in the taskbar at the bottom of the computer screen.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO  
The Keys  
The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed a third time to unlock or turn it  
off. Once a modifier key is unlocked, the uppercase representation at the bottom of the  
screen is no longer displayed.  
3.4.2  
The Keys  
The [SHIFT] Key  
The [SHIFT] key provides access to uppercase alpha characters, and on numeric hand-helds,  
it also provides access to the symbols displayed in white print on the keys.  
To lock the keyboard into uppercase, CAPS-lock, press [FN/BLUE] followed by [SHIFT]. A  
CAPS-lock icon – a blue capital letter A within a white box – appears in the taskbar. To  
unlock or turn off CAPS-lock, press [FN/BLUE] [SHIFT] again.  
The Arrow Keys  
The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow: up, down,  
left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the  
next character you type will appear.  
The [SPACE] Key  
Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog box, press-  
ing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.  
The [<—/DEL] Key  
This key allows access to both the backspace and the delete function. The backspace func-  
tion represented by an arrow [<—] (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves  
the cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.  
The delete function ([FN/BLUE] [<—/DEL]) erases the character at the cursor position.  
The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key  
The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are applica-  
tion-dependent.  
The [TAB] Key  
Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward.  
The [ESC] Key  
Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog box or  
activity and return to the previous one.

Function Keys And Macro Keys  
The [SCAN] Key  
All units are equipped with a yellow [SCAN] key. For units that do not have internal scan-  
ners, this key can be re-mapped to another function.  
3.4.3  
Function Keys And Macro Keys  
In addition to the standard keyboard functions, NEO supports Function keys and Macro  
keys. All Function and Macro keys can be custom defined for each application.  
3.4.3.1 Function Keys  
The hand-held keyboard is equipped with a total of 10 function keys colour coded in blue  
print on the numeric keys; these keys are accessed by executing a key combination,  
[FN/BLUE] followed by the appropriate numeric key.  
Note: The [TAB], [ALT], [CTRL] and [ESC] keys have [F1] through [F4] printed on  
them; these are only labels and are provided so that the operator can create direct-  
press function keys using the keyboard remapping feature. Refer to “Scancode  
Remapping” on page 84 for details about mapping keys.  
For example, to access function key [F7]:  
•
Press the [FN/BLUE] key followed by the [7] key—the numeric key to which function  
key [F7] is mapped.  
•
To access function key [F8], press [FN/BLUE] [8], and so on.  
3.4.3.2 The Macro Keys  
While macro keys are not physically stamped on the keyboard, up to 12 macro functions can  
be added using the Scancode Remapping function. Refer to “Scancode Remapping” on  
page 86 for details about mapping keys. Refer to “Keyboard Macro Keys” on page 83 for  
details about programming characters in a Macro key.  
3.4.4  
26-Key Keyboard: Accessing Alpha Keys  
On numeric 26-key keyboards, numeric keys are directly accessible, and all alpha characters  
are printed on the keys in orange characters. An indicator in the left corner of the taskbar dis-  
plays the currently selected character. To access an alpha character, first press the  
[FN/ORANGE] key and then press the numeric key above which the alpha character you  
want to type is printed.

26-Key Keyboard: Accessing Alpha Keys  
Choosing A Single Alpha Character  
The examples below illustrate how to access, A, B, and C, all of which are printed in orange  
characters above the numeric key [2].  
Important: The letters you choose appear in the taskbar, providing a visual indicator of  
which letter will be displayed on the screen.  
To choose the letter a:  
•
Press the [FN/ORANGE] key, and press the numeric key [2].  
Note: To choose the second, third or fourth alpha character assigned to a numeric key,  
you may want to lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’. By default, the [FN/ORANGE]  
key is locked ‘on’ when pressed once. However, depending on how your unit is set  
up in the ‘One Shots’ tab, you may find that you need to press the [FN/ORANGE]  
key twice to lock it ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 82  
for details.  
To choose the second letter in the sequence—in this example, the letter b:  
•
Lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’. ‘ORG KEY is displayed in upper-case characters in  
the taskbar to indicate that this key is locked ‘on’.  
•
Press numeric key [2] twice to display the letter b.  
To choose the third letter in the sequence—in this example, the letter c:  
•
•
Lock the [FN/ORANGE] key ‘on’.  
Press numeric key [2] three times to display the letter c.  
Note: Keep in mind that there is a timeout if you pause for one second between key presses  
when selecting the second, third or fourth letters on a key. For example, suppose  
you want to type the letter ‘c’ – you’d need to press the [2] key three times. With the  
[FN/ORANGE] key locked ‘on’, if you press [2] twice and then pause between key  
presses for 1 second, the letter ‘b’ will be selected automatically.  
Creating Uppercase Letters  
To display a capital letter:  
•
Press the [FN/ORANGE] key and then the [SHIFT] key before typing the  
alpha character.  
Note: If you want to use uppercase characters at all times, press [FN/BLUE] [SHIFT]. An  
icon of an uppercase ‘A’ is displayed in the taskbar indicating that all letters will be  
displayed as uppercase characters.

power’ warning message is displayed automatically if the battery capacity falls to  
1%. You can also set the percentage at which a ‘low power’ message is displayed  
using the Advanced tab in the Power Properties dialog box; it is set to 10% by  
default. Refer to “Power Properties” on page 92 for details.  
As lithium-ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally con-  
sidered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original capacity  
remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the unit at temperature ex-  
tremes will shorten the battery life.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know NEO  
Storing Batteries  
Lithium-ion batteries do not require conditioning cycles and the NEO battery system does  
not require user interaction to maintain peak performance.  
To determine the remaining charge in the battery, you can tap on the Power icon in the  
Control Panel to display a dialog box that provides detailed information about the battery  
status of the main battery installed in your unit. You can also tap on the Power icon in the  
taskbar to display the battery status.  
To maximize the run time of your batteries, consider the following:  
•
The hand-held is ‘event’ driven—that is, when the unit is not in use, it reverts to sleep  
mode (even when it appears to be running), saving battery power. Events include a key  
press, touchscreen taps and scan triggers. Power consumption is reduced if you avoid  
unnecessary events, and allow the unit to sleep as much as possible.  
•
•
NEO uses a smart battery with built-in intelligence.  
Tapping on the Power icon in the Control Panel displays a dialog box that provides  
detailed information about the battery status of the main battery installed in your unit.  
When the hand-held is switched off, it goes into a low-power, suspend state but contin-  
ues to draw a small amount of power from the battery. This should not be an issue unless  
the unit is left in suspend state for more than a week—for long-term storage, the battery  
should be removed from the unit.  
•
•
Reduce display brightness.  
Turn off the keyboard backlight if not required.  
3.7.1  
Storing Batteries  
Long term battery storage is not recommended. If storage is necessary:  
•
•
Always try to use a ‘first-in first-out’ approach to minimize storage time.  
Lithium-ion batteries age much faster at elevated temperatures. Store batteries at tem-  
peratures between 0 °C and 20 °C (32 °F and 68 °F).  
•
Always charge batteries to at least 40 to 60% before storing them. Batteries can be  
damaged by an over-discharge phenomenon that occurs when an empty battery is stored  
for a long period of time such that the cell voltage drops below a lower limit.  
•
•
To minimize storage degradation, recharge stored batteries to 40 to 60% every 4 or 6  
months to prevent over-discharge damage.  
A ‘never used’ lithium-ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have limited or  
no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries as perishable goods.

Uploading Data In A Docking Station  
3.8  
Uploading Data In A Docking Station  
Important: Review the documentation provided with the user application installed in  
your NEO before performing data uploads.  
The desktop docking station and quad docking station are typically used to upload transac-  
tion data to a server computer when a radio link is not available.  
Note: Refer to “Desktop Docking Station – PX3001” on page 188 for more details.  
The desktop docking station can complete batch uploads to a Client USB connected PC or  
server. An optional 10/100baseT Ethernet connection can be used via the USB to Ethernet  
cable (Model No. PX3052).  
Unlike the desktop docking station, the quad docking station supports only TCP/IP connec-  
tions to a PC or server through a 10/100baseT Ethernet connection.  
When a NEO is properly inserted in a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the navi-  
gation bar at the top of the screen. The unit also detects the presence of the  
Ethernet network.

Bluetooth Radio  
Note: Integrated Bluetooth Class 2 radios are standard on ‘connected’ NEOs – that is,  
units equipped with 802.11 radios. On ‘batch’ (unconnected) units, Bluetooth is an  
optional feature.  
The Bluetooth radio enables short range data communication between devices. In addition,  
it provides the capability to use a Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone as a data modem, ex-  
changing information with other Bluetooth devices and providing network access. You can  
also pair your hand-set with a Bluetooth headset. Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 102  
for setup details.

General Maintenance  
3.11 General Maintenance  
3.11.1 Caring For The Touchscreen  
The top of the touchscreen is a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a conductive  
coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and  
is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. NEO is equipped with a stylus that is designed  
to safely select items on the touchscreen. Use only the stylus on the touchscreen; using  
sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal  
conductive coating.  
The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:  
•
•
•
•
sodium hydroxide,  
concentrated caustic solutions,  
benzyl alcohol, and  
concentrated acids.  
Note: An optional protective cover (PN 1081366) is available to help protect the touch-  
screen. Follow the installation instructions shipped with the cover.  
3.11.2 Cleaning NEO  
Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent  
to wipe the exterior of the unit clean.  
•
•
Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.  
Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals. The plastic case is susceptible to  
harsh chemicals; it is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic  
slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.  
•
•
To clean ink marks from the keyboard and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.  
When using a dampened cloth to clean NEO, make certain that the battery cover is in  
place to protect the battery compartment from moisture.

Navigating In Windows CE 5.0  
4.1  
Navigating In Windows CE 5.0  
Note: In order to access many of the menus discussed in this chapter, the security level  
must be set to ‘Supervisor’ (see “Security Settings” on page 57).  
Graphic user interfaces like Windows CE 5.0 for portable devices and desktop Windows  
(2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ navigation. An equivalent keyboard shortcut is also  
available for every ‘point and click’ action.  
Windows CE 5.0 supports the same ‘point and click’ user interface and keyboard shortcuts  
as desktop Windows with one difference—the ‘point and click’ action is accomplished  
using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed using any combination  
of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping.  
4.1.1  
Navigating Using A Touchscreen And Stylus  
Note: If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the touchscreen  
may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 35.  
Each NEO is equipped with a stylus—a pointing tool that looks like a pen. The stylus is used  
to select objects on the touchscreen.  
Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus (pen) supplied with  
your NEO.  
To choose an icon, open a file, launch an applet, or open a folder:  
•
Double-tap the stylus on the appropriate icon.  
4.1.2  
Navigating Using The Keyboard  
If your NEO touchscreen has been disabled, you can use the keyboard to choose icons, nav-  
igate dialog boxes, display the desktop, and so on. If your unit has already been fully  
configured and your application is launched at startup, you’ll have little need for keyboard  
navigation, but you can refer to Table 4.1 for a description of the navigation keys.

®
ActiveSync  
This option allows you to connect to another device using ActiveSync.  
Demo  
This folder contains the Demo Scanner, Demo Signature and Demo Sound applications.  
Demo Scanner can be used to test how the hand-held reads and writes bar codes. Demo Sig-  
nature allows you to capture a signature written on the screen with your stylus and save it to  
a file. Demo Sound allows you to record and playback. The ‘Sample Rate’ and the ‘Bits Per  
Sample’ are the rates at which the sound will be recorded. Sounds recorded at the higher  
sample rate or bits per sample will be higher quality sound but will require more file storage  
space. Lower sample rates and/or bits per sample produces a smaller file, but the sound  
quality suffers. The record and play buttons operate in the same as on any recording device.  
The X icon deletes the sound and the diskette icon allows you to save your sound.  
Command Prompt  
Command Prompt is used to access the DOS command prompt. At the prompt, you can type  
DOS commands such as dir to display all the directories in the drive.

In the Keyboard Properties dialog box, open the One Shots tab.  
The options in this tab allow you to determine how modifier keys on your NEO behave. For  
each modifier key—[ALT], [SHIFT], [CTRL], [FN/ORANGE] and [FN/BLUE] – you have  
the following options in the drop-down menu: Lock, OneShot, and OneShot/Lock.  
Note: Keep in mind that checking the taskbar lets you know whether or not these keys are  
locked on. For example, if the [FN/ORANGE] key is locked ‘on’, the taskbar at the  
bottom of the screen displays it in uppercase characters, ORANGE KEY. If this key  
is displayed in lowercase characters in the taskbar, you’ll know that the orange key  
is not locked. It will become inactive following a key press.  
Important: Once you’ve assigned a One Shot mode to a modifier key, you need to tap  
on the OK button at the top of the tab to activate your selection.  
Lock  
If you choose Lock from the drop-down menu, pressing a modifier key once locks it ‘on’  
until you press the modifier key a second time to unlock or turn it off.  
OneShot  
If you choose OneShot, the modifier key remains active only until the next key is pressed.

5.5.2.7 Scancode Remapping  
A scancode is a number that is associated with a physical key on a keyboard. Every key has  
a unique scancode that is mapped to a virtual key, a function or a macro. Scancode Remap-  
ping allows you to change the functionality of any key on the keyboard. A key can be  
remapped to send a virtual key (e.g. VK_F represents the ‘F’ key; VK_RETURN represents  
the [ENTER] key, etc.), perform a function (e.g. turn the scanner on, change volume/con-  
trast, etc.) or run a macro.  
There are three different tables of scancode mappings: the Normal table, the Blue table and  
the Orange table. The Normal table defines unmodified key presses; the Blue table defines  
86

Chapter 5: Configuration  
Keyboard Properties  
key presses that occur when the [FN/BLUE] modifier is on; the Orange table defines key  
presses that occur when the [FN/ORANGE] modifier is on. The default mappings of these  
scancodes can be overwritten for each of these three tables using the Scancode Remapping  
tab accessed from the Keyboard Properties dialog box.  
The first column in the Scancode Remapping tab displays the scancodes in hexadecimal. If  
the scancode is remapped to a virtual key, that virtual key is displayed in the next column la-  
belled ‘V-Key’. A virtual key that is ‘Shifted’ or ‘Unshifted’ is displayed in the third column  
labelled ‘Function’.  
If the scancode is remapped to a function or a macro, the first and second columns remain  
blank while the third column contains the function name or macro key number  
(e.g., Macro 2).

will be remapped: Virtual Key, Function or Macro.  
When Virtual Key is selected, you can choose to force [SHIFT] to be on or off when the  
virtual key is sent. If No Force is selected, the shift state is dependent on whether the shift  
state is on or off at the time the virtual key is sent.

•
In the Power Properties dialog box, open the Suspend tab.  
Power Source  
This dialog box allows you to specify the suspend time for either AC Power or  
Battery Power.  
Suspend Timeout  
Important: Psion Teklogix recommends setting the Suspend value to 10 minutes. To  
further reduce power consumption, carefully consider the duration of time  
that the display and the keyboard backlight are ‘on’ (see “Display Back-  
light” on page 76 and “Keyboard Backlight” on page 81).  
When NEO is idle – not receiving any user input (a key touch, a scan and so on) or system  
activity (serial data, an activity initiated by an application and so on) – the hand-held uses  
the value assigned in the Suspend Timeout field to determine when the unit will go to sleep  
(appear to be off).  
When the time in the Suspend Timeout field elapses without any activity, the unit enters  
suspend state. In suspend state, the hand-held CPU enters a sleep state, and the radio is shut  
off. The state of the device (RAM contents) is preserved. Pressing [ENTER] wakes the  
system from suspend state. When NEO is in suspend state, the network connection will not  
be broken immediately. If the connection is dropped, you must re-establish the network  
connection.

5.5.4.3 Suspend Threshold  
The Suspend Threshold lets you to determine when NEO will shut down. If the slider is left  
at the default value, Maximum Operating Time, the hand-held will run until the battery is  
completely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time. If you choose  
Maximum Backup Time, the hand-held will shut off with more energy left in the battery so  
RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time.  
Important: Selecting ‘Maximum backup time’ reserves approximately 20% of the  
battery capacity for memory backup. Once the battery is drained, the system  
RAM memory is lost and the unit must reboot.  
In most real-time transaction environments, this is not a problem (it only  
takes a few seconds to boot). However, batch transaction environments,  
where data is not saved to a non-volatile memory (a microSD FLASH  
card), may need to pay particular attention to this parameter. Psion Tek-  
logix does not recommend the storage of any valuable data in system RAM.  
The NEO Windows CE 5.0 environment does not store any critical data in  
RAM (such as the registry or file system).  
If the user's application does not save data to RAM, Psion Teklogix recom-  
mends keeping the Suspend Threshold setting as low as possible to  
maximize battery run time.

gers, external hardware triggers or software-based. When the specified key is pressed, the  
trigger consumer (for example, a decoded scanner) is sent a message.

Manage Triggers  
Important: It is not possible to have two or more identical mappings—for example [F1]  
cannot be mapped to the Non-Decoded Scanner twice—even if the trigger  
type is different.  
A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer generate key  
data or perform its normal function. For example, if the space button is  
used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send space characters to  
applications.  
Double-Click  
When a key is pressed and released, then pressed again within the configured time (between  
0 to 1000 milliseconds), a double-click occurs. See also “Trigger-Press Type” on page 101.

the “owner”– that is, the application receiving the trigger press information—followed by a  
“trigger up”. If Double Click is chosen in this menu, when the trigger is pressed, released,  
and then pressed again, a “double-click” event will have occurred. If a mapping with the  
type Up/Down has also been configured for the same source, it will only receive the first set  
of trigger events.

The Devices Tab  
5.6.1  
The Devices Tab  
This tab allows you to scan for other Bluetooth enabled devices, and it allows you to  
pair devices.  
If you intend to pair devices (a headset, for example), power on and bring the devices within  
5 m (16.4 ft.) of each other before proceeding with the discovery process described below.  
5.6.1.1 Pairing A Device  
To pair devices:  
•
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to place the device you want to pair in  
pairing mode  
•
•
Choose the Devices tab and Scan for devices in your area.  
When the scan is complete, highlight the device you want to pair with and either double-  
click or press the Services button.  
•
If a PIN dialog box appears, type your PIN and tap on OK.  
After entering the device PIN number, the Services dialog appears with a list of services  
available on that device.  
•
To select a service, double-click on the service you want, or highlight the service and  
press the space bar.  
•
In the drop-down list of options available, choose Active to pair the device.  
A COM/BSP port name will appear next to the service for this device. Your device is

Figure 5.11 Available Bluetooth Devices  
Wait for NEO to complete its scan (approximately 20 seconds). When scanning starts, the  
Scan button will change to Stop—if necessary, you can tap on this button to stop the process.  
Once scanning is complete, all discovered devices will be displayed in the list box, with  
Name, Address, Active status, and PIN information.  
Note: During the scanning process, addresses are located first, followed by names. Only  
the names of devices that are within the Bluetooth radio coverage range will  
be retrieved.  
The Active column indicates whether any service is activated for that device. When a service  
is activated, the device is displayed in the list even when it is not detected during the scan.  
The PIN column indicates whether you have a PIN (password) set for the device.  
At this point you can either query for services or set the PIN for each device. Once you high-  
light a device in the list box, both the Services and Set PIN buttons become available.  
Services  
A discovered device may display several service profiles that it can use to communicate, and  
you will want to activate the type you need. Supported profiles that can be activated include:  
DUN (Dial-Up Networking service), Printer (serial service), Headset service and LANPPP  
(LANAccessUsingPPP service). ASync (ActiveSync) is another available profile.  
•
To start the service scan, highlight a device in the Devices tab list, and then click on the  
Services button or double-click on the device entry.

The Devices Tab  
Note: If the remote device is out of reach or turned off, it can take a considerable amount  
of time for the Services dialog box to appear—it may appear to be frozen.  
Once the device’s service profiles are displayed in the Services list box:  
•
•
Highlight the service to be activated.  
Press [SPACE] or right-click to display the Activation menu.  
The Activation menu contains four options: Activate, Authenticate, Outgoing, and Encrypt.  
Once the service is successfully activated, the assigned port (if applicable) will appear in the  
Port column of the Services list box. You can choose to use BSP or COM as the port name.  
BSP is the latest Microsoft Bluetooth stack standard, but older applications assume serial  
ports are COM. When using COM as the port name, the Bluetooth manager will try to find  
and use a free port between COM7 and COM9. When using BSP as the port name, BSP2 to  
BSP9 are available for use. The port is available as soon as it is activated.  
Note: The CH column shows the RFCOMM channel of the service if the service is  
RFCOMM-based. This information is not generally needed except for  
debugging purposes.  
To add a service to the Outgoing port, an active service must first be deactivated. Then you  
can choose the Outgoing option from the Activation menu (highlight a service, right-click  
or press the [SPACE] bar to display the Activation menu).  
The Authentication and Encryption options can be changed only before activation. To  
change these after activation, deactivate the service first, then change the options.  
Once a service is activated, all the information regarding the service, including the  
RFCOMM channel number, is saved in the registry. (Some remote devices may change their  
RFCOMM channel numbers when they reboot, so your saved setting may not work when  
the remote device is rebooted. In that case, you must deactivate the service and reactivate it  
to detect the current RFCOMM channel.)  
Set PIN  
PINs can be set for each device by pressing the Set PIN button in the Devices tab, or you  
can skip this step and try to connect to the device first.  
Important: The remote device must have authentication enabled, otherwise the PIN  
authentication will fail.  
•
Highlight a device, click on the Set Pin button, and type the PIN.

You will receive a message, either that the PIN has been successfully validated or that it has  
been rejected.  
If the PIN has been validated, an asterisk (*) appears in the PIN column in the Devices list  
box, indicating that this device has a PIN set. Once a PIN is entered, it is saved in  
the registry.  
To remove the PIN:  
•
Choose Set PIN, and press [ENTER].  
If NEO attempts to connect to a remote device that has Authentication enabled and does not  
have a required PIN set, an Authentication Request dialog box appears.

Outgoing Tab  
5.6.4  
Outgoing Tab  
Outgoing Port acts as a serial port that can be used to connect to a list of Bluetooth devices  
(one at a time), but you have the freedom to switch on-the-fly.  
The Outgoing Port checkbox allows you to create the Outgoing port. When the port is cre-  
ated, the Outgoing tab lists the port name.  
The Outgoing list dialog box displays a list of services marked as ‘Outgoing’. The * column  
indicates the currently selected service. You can tap on Unselect to reset the current selec-  
tion, or you can tap on Select to make a selection. The Remove button deletes the service  
from the outgoing list.  
The Prompt menu determines the behaviour of the pop-up Selection menu. Choosing  
Everytime causes the Selection menu to be displayed each time an outgoing port is created.  
If you choose Once, the menu is displayed only when a partner service is not selected.  
To display the Selection menu at any time:  
•
Press [CTRL] [ALT] [F1], and switch the partner Bluetooth device.  
If a connection to a partner device already exists, the connection is dropped and another con-  
nection to the newly selected device is created instantly without disrupting the application  
that has opened the outgoing port.  
Note: To add a service to the Outgoing port, an active service must first be deactivated.  
Then you can choose the ‘Outgoing’ option from the Activation menu (highlight a  
service, right-click or press the [SPACE] bar to display the Activation menu).

Decoded (Internal) Scanners  
Decoded (Internal) – Advanced Options  
Aim Duration  
This parameter determines the total time the aiming pattern appears before the scanner laser  
begins sweeping. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which  
you can enter a value from 0 to 30 (0 to 3 sec.). A value of 0 (zero) disables the aiming-dot.  
Laser On Time  
The value assigned to this parameter determines how long the laser will remain on when the  
scan button or trigger is pressed. Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in  
which you can enter a value between 5 and 99, each number representing 0.1 seconds.  
5.13.2.2 Decoded (Internal) – Advanced Options  
Continuous Scan Mode  
Setting this parameter to on keeps the laser on and continuously decoding as long as the  
scanner button is pressed and held down.  
Minimum Cancel Time  
The value assigned to this parameter determines the time delay before the scanner is turned  
off, once the scanner trigger or button is released. This gives the scanner a minimum amount  
of time to complete its current decode before the scan is cancelled when the user quickly  
triggers on/off.  
Low Power Timeout  
To extend laser life, you can select the time the scanner remains active following a success-  
ful decode. The scanner wakes from low power mode when a bar code is scanned—a  
successful decode restores normal blinking.  
This is only used if the unit’s Trigger Mode has been changed to Continuous On. If the unit  
is used in a fixed mount this parameter might be used, but not if the unit is used as a hand-  
held.  
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a  
value of 30 sec., 1 min., 2 min., or 3 min.  
Parameter Scanning  
Setting this parameter to on allows the scanner to respond to programming bar codes that  
can be found in the scanner manual. Scanning these is an alternative way to reprogram some  
of the scanner features

Chapter 5: Configuration  
Decoded (Internal) Scanners  
Important: Psion Teklogix strongly recommends that this parameter only be enabled by  
personnel with a very strong understanding the scanner and how it operates.  
Scanning the wrong parameter code can result in an inoperable unit; if this  
occurs, the unit will need to be shipped to a depot for repair.  
Linear Security Level  
This parameter allows you to select the security level appropriate for your bar code quality.  
There are four levels of decode security for linear code types (e.g., Code 39, Interleaved 2 of  
5). Higher security levels should be selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As se-  
curity levels increase, the scanner’s decode speed decreases.  
Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in which you can enter a value from  
1 to 4.  
Linear security level 1 specifies that the following code types must be successfully read  
twice before being decoded:  
Code Type  
Codabar  
Length  
All  
MSI Plessey  
D 5 of 5  
4 or less  
8 or less  
8 or less  
I 2 of 5  
Linear security level 2 specifies that all types of codes must be successfully read twice  
before being decoded.  
Linear security level 3 specifies that code types other than the following must be success-  
fully read twice before being decoded. The following codes must be read three times:  
Code Type  
MSI Plessey  
D 2 of 5  
Length  
4 or less  
8 or less  
8 or less  
I 2 of 5  
Linear security level 4 requires that all code types be successfully read three times before  
being decoded.

Bi-Direction Redundancy  
Note: This parameter is only valid if a” Linear Security Level” is enabled.  
When this parameter is enabled, a bar code must be successfully scanned in both directions  
(forward and reverse) before being decoded.  
Scan Angle  
This option allows you to choose from two scan angles: Normal Angle or Alternate Angle.  
Choosing Normal Angle allows the normal operation for scanning long range and short  
range. Choosing Alternate Angle widens the beam to allow scanning of long bar codes at  
short range but at the cost of long range scanning.  
5.13.2.3 Decoded (Internal) Data Options  
Transmit Code ID Char  
A code ID character identifies the scanned bar code type. In addition to any single character  
prefix already selected, the code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the  
decoded symbol.  
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a  
transmit code: None, AIM, or Symbol.  
Scan Data Format  
This parameter allows you to change the scan data transmission format. Double-tapping on  
Scan Data Format displays the following options from which you can choose a data  
format: data (as-is), data [S1], data [S2], data [S1][S2], [P] data, [P] data [S1],  
[P] data [S2], and [P] data [S1][S2].  
Prefix [P], Suffix [S1] And Suffix [S2]  
A prefix and/or one or two suffixes may be appended to scan data for use in data editing.  
When you double-tap on these parameters, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter  
a value from 0 to 255.  
Delete Char Set ECIs  
Setting this parameter to on enables the scanner to delete any escape sequences representing  
Character Set ECIs—Extended Channel Interpretations (also known as GLIs) – from its  
buffer before transmission.

Chapter 5: Configuration  
Decoded (Internal) Scanners  
When this parameter is enabled, the scanner transmits data from PDF417 and MicroPDF417  
bar codes containing Character Set ECIs, even when the ECI Protocol is disabled.  
ECI Decoder  
Setting this parameter to on enables the scanner to interpret any Extended Channel Interpre-  
tations (ECIs) supported by the scanner. This parameter has no effect on symbols that were  
not encoded using ECIs.  
If this parameter is set to OFF and a symbol that was encoded using an ECI escape is  
scanned, the scanner transmits the ECI escape followed by the data that was not interpreted.  
5.13.2.4 Code 39  
Enabled  
Setting this parameter to on enables “Code 39”.  
Enable Trioptic Code 39  
Note: “Trioptic Code 39” and “Full ASCII” should not be enabled simultaneously. The  
scanner does not automatically discriminate between these two symbologies.  
Trioptic Code 39 symbols always contain six characters. Setting this parameter to on allows  
this type of symbology to be recognized.  
Convert To Code 32  
Note: “Code 39” must be enabled in order for this parameter to function.  
Setting this parameter to on allows the scanner to convert the bar code from “Code 39” to  
“Code 32”.  
Code 32 Prefix  
Note: “Convert to Code 32” must be enabled in order for this parameter to function.  
When this parameter is enabled, the prefix character “A” is added to all “Code 32”  
bar codes.

Set Length L1 And Set Length L2  
Lengths for “Code 39” can be set for Any length, Length within a range, One discrete length  
or Two discrete lengths. The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human  
readable characters), including check digit(s).  
Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box labelled Set Code Lengths where  
you can define the code length that will be decoded by your scanner  
Choosing One discrete length allows you to decode only those codes containing a selected  
length. Choosing Two discrete lengths allows you to decode only those codes containing two  
selected lengths. Length within a range allows you to decode a code type within a specified  
range from 1 to 55.  
Check Digit Verification  
When this parameter is enabled, the integrity of a “Code 39” symbol is checked to ensure  
that it complies with specified algorithms.  
Note: Only those “Code 39” symbols that include a Mod 43 check digit are decoded when  
this parameter is enabled.  
Transmit Check Digit  
If the check digit is to be transmitted with the data, this parameter must to enabled.  
Full ASCII  
If this parameter is enabled, the characters +, %, and / are used as escape characters. The  
combination of an escape character and the next character is converted to an equivalent  
ASCII character.

Decoded (Internal) Scanners  
Decode Perf. Level  
This parameter provides three levels of decode performance or “aggressiveness” for Code  
39 symbols. Increasing the performance level reduces the amount of required bar code ori-  
entation—this is useful when scanning very long and/or truncated bar codes. Keep in mind  
that increased levels reduce decode security.  
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a  
decode performance level of between 1 and 3.  
Length Restriction  
The parameters in this sub-menu allow you to define the length of the bar codes that will be  
decoded using either the “Field Size” parameter or the “Minimum Size” and “Maximum  
Size” parameters (see below). The order of operation to either match the “Field Size” or de-  
termine if the length falls between the “Minimum Size” and “Maximum Size” is as follows:  
•
•
•
Strip the leading and trailing characters.  
Add the prefix and suffix characters.  
Count the number of characters remaining to either match the field size or determine if  
the length falls between the minimum and maximum size.  
Field Size  
When a value is assigned for this parameter, only bar codes that match the field size exactly  
can be transmitted. If a value is assigned to this parameter, a “Minimum Size” and “Maxi-  
mum Size” value is not required.  
Minimum Size And Maximum Size  
When a value is assigned to these parameters, only bar code lengths that fall between the  
minimum and maximum value can be decoded. If values are assigned to these parameters, a  
“Field Size” value is not required.  
Add/Remove Data

plications that cannot use the default <GS> Group Separator or hex (1d).  
Double-tapping on this option displays a dialog box listing the allowable range: 0 to 255.  
Enable ISBT 128  
To successfully scan this type of bar code (International Society of Blood Transfusion), this  
option must be set to on. If you enable this type of bar code, Code 128/EAN 128 is deacti-  
vated to avoid any confusion.  
ISBT Concat Transmit  
The codes are not concatenated by default. You need to choose one of the options provided  
for this parameter to send concatenated code. Choosing Only Concatenated Codes transmits  
only concatenated codes—single codes will not be transmitted. Choosing Concatenated or  
Single transmits single codes or concatenated codes. If only one code of a pair is read, that  
code will be transmitted as a single code. If both codes in a pair are detected, they will be  
concatenated provided that “ISBT Concat Any Pair” (see below) is enabled.  
ISBT Concat Any Pair  
Enabling this parameter causes all code pairs that can be, to be concatenated even if they do  
not comply with Section 4.1 of the “ISBT 128 Bar Code Symbology and Application Speci-  
fication for Labeling of Whole Blood and Blood Components” (June 2000, Version 1.2.1).

ing the scanner trigger overrides the target dot delay set in the “Dot Time” parameter and  
initiates a normal scan sweep. If a value is assigned for the “Click Data” parameter, double-  
clicking the scanner trigger inserts the “Click Data” value rather than initiating a scan.  
Click Data  
This parameter determines which character is sent to the application installed in your NEO  
following a double-click. A dialog box appears, asking that you press the key you want to  
insert. The ASCII/Unicode key value of the keypress is displayed.

5.13.4.2 Display Parameters  
Scan Result  
When this parameter is enabled, the type of bar code and the result of the scan appear on the  
screen. Note that this information is only displayed after a successful decode and is visible  
only while the scanner trigger is pressed. When the trigger is released, this information is  
cleared from the screen.  
Scan Indicator  
When this parameter is enabled, the laser warning logo appears on the display whenever the  
scanner is activated.  
Scan Result Time (sec)  
The value assigned to the “Scan Result Time (sec)” parameter determines how long the scan  
results of a successful scan are displayed on the screen. Time is measured in seconds, and a  
value of “0” (zero) disables the parameter. When you choose this option, a dialog box  
appears where you can enter a value.  
Note: To remove the scan result from the screen before the “Result Time” has expired,  
point the scanner away from the bar code and press the trigger.  
Good Scan Beep And Bad Scan Beep  
These parameters determine whether or not the NEO emits an audible scanner ‘beep’ when  
a good (successful) scan or a bad (unsuccessful) scan is performed. Set these parameters to  
either on to enable the beeper or off to disable it.  
Soft Scan Timeout  
This parameter is used by the SDK “Scan” function (soft-scan: starting a scan session via the  
SDK function, instead of a physical user trigger press). The value assigned to this parameter  
determines the soft-scan timeout from 1 to 10 sec. (default is 3 sec.).  
Scan Log File  
If this parameter is enabled, the input barcode and the modified/translated output bar code  
are logged in the file \Flash Disk\ScanLog.txt. Keep in mind that if the “Scan Log File” is  
enabled, there is a slight performance effect when performing multiple scans since the log  
file is written to persistent storage.

5.13.4.3 Data Handling  
This option allows you to choose the code page your NEO will use to display data – Default  
Local ASCII or ISO-8859-1 Latin 1.  
Codepage:  
Tapping on this option displays a window in which you can define the code page your NEO  
will use.  
If you choose Default Local ASCII, the code page of the local OS is used. For example, if  
the local OS uses double-byte Chinese characters, choosing this option will filter data  
through the local ASCII of that OS and display it accurately, in this example, using double-  
byte characters.  
If you choose ISO-8859-1 Latin 1, data will be displayed according to the character mapping  
of this Latin 1 code page, ignoring the local OS code page.

Verify barcode size—verifies the bar code size. This rule should generally be assigned  
first, before creating subsequent rules.  
Search and replace—replaces all instances of the match string. (Note that this rule  
cannot fail.)  
Note: Keep in mind that the effects of previously applied rules must be taken into account  
when creating subsequent rules. For example, if the bar code size is important, it  
should be checked before any rules that might change the size are applied.  
Translation information about the status of each case/rule is displayed in the scan log file  
(see “Scan Log File” on page 169) when enabled. This is useful if a case fails, and you are  
trying to determine why a rule is failing.

187  
         
Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories  
Power Consumption Considerations  
•
•
Keep docking stations away from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants.  
Docking stations will not charge batteries outside an ambient temperature range of 0 °C  
to 45 °C (32 °F to 113 °F). It is recommended that the docking station be operated at  
room temperature—between 18 °C and 25 °C (64 °F to 77 °F) for maximum  
performance.  
After unpacking your unit:  
•
•
Visually inspect the docking station for possible damage.  
Install the IEC power cord and apply power.  
6.4.2  
Power Consumption Considerations  
Check to ensure the mains circuit supplying docking stations is adequate for the load, espe-  
cially if several docking stations are being powered from the same circuit.  
•
Quad docking station–can consume up to 3A @ 120VAC or 1.5A @ 240VAC.  
6.4.3  
Operator Controls  
NEO docking stations have no operator controls or power switches.

Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories  
Charging A Spare Battery  
•
Slide NEO into the docking station, making certain that the connector on the base of the  
hand-held is securely seated on the docking station connector pins. An icon is displayed  
in the task bar at the bottom of the hand-held screen indicating that the unit is properly  
installed in the station:  
The LED on NEO lights up indicating that the unit has external power and battery charging  
will begin. It is safe to leave the unit in the desktop docking station while it is not in use – the  
battery will not be overcharged.  
Note: To maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, the battery must be charged for  
a minimum of two hours (while installed in the hand-held).  
6.5.3  
Charging A Spare Battery  
To charge a spare battery:  
•
Insert the battery in the spare battery charge well at the back of the docking station,  
aligning the contacts on the battery with the contacts in the spare battery charge well.  
Note: To maintain the NEO real time clock for three days, a battery must be charged for at  
least two hours while installed in the hand-held; however, if you are charging a  
spare battery (not installed in the hand-held), the real time clock three day backup  
cannot be maintained until a charged battery is installed in the hand-held computer  
for at least two hours.  
6.5.4  
Battery Charge Duration  
A NEO inserted in the desktop docking station requires 3 hours to charge the battery to  
75% capacity.  
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO default settings – i.e., display  
brightness 50%, keyboard backlight off, 802.11b/g radio on and 23° C temperature.  
Additional peripherals and other power consumption features will also alter the  
specified charge time.  
The desktop docking station stops applying power to the battery when it is fully charged–  
there is no risk of overcharge if the battery remains in the charge well.  
6.5.5  
Docking Station Charger LED Indicators  
The desktop docking station is equipped with a single tri-coloured LED indicator in the  
lower-right corner of the front panel that indicates various charge states of the spare battery  
installed in the docking station.

Quad Docking Station Setup  
The quad docking station permits each of four docked NEOs to communicate with a 10/100  
BaseT Ethernet network. It also provides sufficient power to operate the hand-helds and  
charge their batteries.  
Important: The Ethernet connection on the quad docking station is designed for indoor  
use only!  
6.8.1  
Quad Docking Station Setup  
Refer to instruction sheet PN 1081342 for a checklist of startup steps. You can find this  
instruction sheet on Teknet. Go to www.psionteklogix.com. Tap on Teknet and enter you  
user name and password. If you’re not already a member, you will be asked to register free  
of charge.  
6.8.2  
6.8.3  
Quad Docking Station Indicators  
The quad dock is equipped with a power indicator LED and RJ45 link and traffic  
indicator LEDs. When a valid link is established, a green LED is illuminated next to  
the RJ45 connector.  
Inserting A NEO In The Quad Docking Station  
•
Slide NEO into the cradle portion of the quad dock until lightly latched.  
The LED on the hand-held unit lights up to show it has external power and may start charg-  
ing the battery.  
Interaction with NEO while in the quad dock is a function of the user application software  
used to communicate with the host network.  
6.8.4  
Network Access  
The quad docking station has one 10/100 Ethernet port. You can insert up to four hand-held  
units. The hand-helds are connected to an internal USB hub. The hand-held unit automati-  
cally detects insertion into a quad docking station and loads the appropriate drivers to  
communicate with the USB/Ethernet converters.  
6.8.4.1 Network Addressing  
Although the USB converters have fixed Ethernet MAC addresses, there is generally no cor-  
relation between these addresses and a specific hand-held. The host application uses  
standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and communicate with a specific NEO on  
the network.

Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories  
Battery Charging – LED Behaviour  
If a link is established between a NEO and a host, the application on the host and on the  
hand-held must have a recovery mechanism in the event that NEO is removed from the dock  
and the link is interrupted.  
6.8.5  
6.8.6  
Battery Charging – LED Behaviour  
Charge status is displayed on the hand-held LED. Refer to Table 6.3 on page 191 for  
detailed LED charge behaviour. A NEO inserted in the quad dock requires 3 hours to  
charge the battery to 75% capacity. Charge durations are independent of the number of  
NEOs docked.  
Note: The specified battery charge times are based on NEO being powered off. Additional  
peripherals and other power consumption features will also alter the specified  
charge time.  
Troubleshooting  
The indicators, applications and drivers required to use and monitor the docking station are  
installed on NEO – no indicators or applications are present on the docking station itself.  
6.8.6.1 Network Link Unsuccessful  
If a network link fails, the application must take appropriate action.  
6.8.6.2 NEO LED Does Not Light When Docked  
•
Check that the quad docking station has power: Is the Power LED on the docking  
station illuminated?  
•
•
Try inserting NEO in another well in the quad dock.  
Check for dirt or contamination on the docking contacts at the bottom of NEO. Wipe the  
contacts with a damp cloth if necessary.  
•
Check the connector pins inside the dock cradle for dirt. Gently wipe with a soft cloth if  
they appear to be dirty or discoloured.  
•
•
•
Check that the contacts are not bent or damaged.  
Remove and reinsert NEO in the cradle.  
Make certain that the battery installed in NEO is not defective.

Basic Scanner Operations  
ured using the Scanner Settings dialog box in the Control Panel (see page 134) and the  
Manage Triggers application (see page 97).  
Important: It is critical that you review the “NEO Hand-Held Computer Regulatory &  
Warranty Guide, PN 8000175, before proceeding.  
6.9.1  
6.9.2  
Basic Scanner Operations  
•
•
Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.  
Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a warning  
indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six seconds have elapsed.  
Scanning Techniques  
•
•
•
NEO’s unique ergonomic design allows you to hold the hand-held at a comfortable  
angle while scanning.  
Ensure that the scanner beam is not perpendicular to the bar code. Light reflected  
directly back into the scanner’s exit window may prevent a successful decode.  
Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D laser scanner, make certain that the scan  
beam crosses every bar and space on the bar code, including the margins on either end  
of the symbol.  
•
When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while decoding the bar code.  
Movement blurs the image.  
•
•
Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.  
Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are close together.  
A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam is active, the  
onscreen message states: SCANNING. If you want to turn off the onscreen message, disable  
Scan Indication in the Options tab of the Scanner Settings menu in the Control Panel.  
When the scan is successful, the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan  
button (or pistol trigger) is released, but only if Scan Result is turned on in the Options tab  
of the Scanner Settings menu in the Control Panel.  
6.9.3  
Troubleshooting  
If the scanner is not working, investigate the following:  
•
Check that the bar code symbology being scanned is enabled for the hand-held you are  
using. Check any other parameters that affect the scanning procedure or the bar code.

Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories  
Bluetooth Peripherals  
•
•
•
Check the bar code to make sure it is not damaged. Try scanning a different bar code to  
verify that the problem is not with the bar code.  
Check that the bar code is within the specified decode zone. Refer to “Scanner/Imager  
Specifications” on page 205 for details.  
Does the hand-held display the warning without scanning? This suggests a hardware  
problem in the hand-held.  
•
•
Is the laser beam scanning across the bar code?  
Once the scan beam has stopped, check the scanner window for dirt, fogging or damage.  
6.10 Bluetooth Peripherals  
NEOs equipped with Bluetooth radios make it is possible to communicate with a variety of  
Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners, printers, and so on.  
The range of the Bluetooth radio is limited to approximately 10 meters.  
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below.  
•
•
•
GSM/GPRS universal handset.  
Bluetooth printer.  
Bluetooth headset.  
Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b/g radios both operate in the 2.4GHz band.  
Although NEO includes features to minimize interference, performance of the system will  
not be optimal if you use both radios simultaneously. Typically, when both radios operate in  
the hand-held at the same time, they cannot transmit simultaneously—this has a negative  
impact on overall system throughput. To minimize the impact on the backbone 802.11g net-  
work, Psion Teklogix recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction  
rates (such as printers and scanners).  
Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 102 for information about setting up your Bluetooth  
devices for communication. In addition, review the manual shipped with your Bluetooth  
device to determine the method used to pair with the NEO host.

•
Wireless Statistics Tab: When you choose the Wireless LAN icon, an 802.11 Wireless  
LAN Settings window is displayed. This tab lists your radio statistics. Choosing the  
Zero button resets the statistics of the last four items – Packets IN, Packets OUT, IN  
errors and OUT errors.  
Figure B.2 Wireless Statistics  
•
Wireless Information Tab: This tab displays existing networks to which you can con-  
nect, and it allows you to add a new network or modify the settings for an existing  
network.

Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config  
Wireless Information  
Note: Configure button – To change the settings in an existing network, highlight the net-  
work you want to modify, and tap on the Configure button to display the Wireless  
Properties dialog box.  
Connect button – To force connection to a specific, existing network, highlight the  
network to which you want your NEO to connect, and tap on the Connect button  
Figure B.3 Wireless Information Tab  
This tab lists available networks – any access points that are broadcasting an SSID, and it  
lists preferred networks – networks that you have configured. Since access points are gener-  
ally secure, they will most likely not be listed here. By default, NEO attempts to connect to  
preferred networks. This behaviour can be changed by enabling Automatically connect to  
non-preferred networks in the Advanced dialog box (see Figure B.5).  
•
To add a new configuration, tap on the Add New button. A blank Wireless Properties  
dialog box is displayed.  
•
Wireless Properties Tab: Type the appropriate SSID (Service Set Identifier) in the  
Network name (SSID): dialog box. The Network name field can contain a maximum  
of 32 characters. The name assigned here is listed as a preferred network.

Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config  
Wireless Information  
Important: Keep in mind that NEO will only communicate with access points that are  
configured with the same SSID.  
•
Ad Hoc And Infrastructure: If you are using an Infrastructure network – one in which  
NEOs must pass data through an access point – leave the checkbox next to This is an ad  
hoc network blank.  
If you are using an Ad Hoc network – a network in which NEOs pass data directly to  
other Ad Hoc devices without an access point – add a checkmark in the checkbox next  
to This is an ad hoc network to enable Ad Hoc.  
•
Encryption:WEP (Wired-Equivalent Privacy) encryption prevents others from acciden-  
tally accessing your network. If you are not using encryption, you can choose Disabled  
from the dropdown encryption menu. Otherwise, leave this field as is.  
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a standard for protecting data through encryp-  
tion. AES supports key sizes of 128 bits, 192 bits and 256 bits and will serve as a  
replacement for the Data Encryption Standard (DES), which has a key size of 56 bits. In  
addition to the increased security that comes with larger key sizes, the AES algorithm is  
a symmetric block cipher that can encrypt (encipher) and decrypt (decipher)  
information.  
•
Authentication: 802.11 supports four subtypes of network authentication services:  
Open, Shared, WPA, and WPA-PSK. Under Open authentication, any wireless station  
can request authentication. The station that needs to authenticate with another wireless  
station sends an authentication management frame that contains the identity of the  
sending station. The receiving station then sends back a frame that indicates whether it  
recognizes the identity of the sending station.

Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config  
Wireless Information  
Under Shared authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have received a secret  
shared key over a secure channel that is independent from the 802.11 wireless network  
communications channel.  
Under WPA and WPA-PSK authentication, the use of 802.1x authentication is required.  
For wireless networks without a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service  
(RADIUS) infrastructure, WPA supports the use of a preshared key. For wireless net-  
works with a RADIUS infrastructure, Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and  
RADIUS is supported.  
•
Network Key: This text box is used to specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an  
equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active WEP key on the  
access point.  
To assign a Network key, highlight The key is provided automatically, and uncheck  
the checkbox to disable this option.  
Figure B.4 Network Key and Key Index  
•
•
Key Index: This field is used to identify the WEP key.  
Enter a value from 1 to 4.  
Enable 802.1x authentication: 802.1X is the IEEE standard that offers additional secu-  
rity for local area networks. It provides authentication for user devices attached to an  
Ethernet network, whether wired or wireless. A security protocol packet such as TLS or  
MD5 encapsulated in an EAP is used in conjunction with the 802.1X standard to  
authenticate users at the MAC layer. Available EAPs are listed in the dropdown menu  
next to the EAP option.  
To activate 802.1X, highlight 802.1x authentication, and check the checkbox.

Appendix B: Wireless Zero Config  
Assigning An IP Address  
•
EAP Type (Extensible Authentication Protocol): This dropdown menu lists the EAP  
types available on your system. The items in this dropdown menu will vary depending  
on your network setup. Keep in mind also that some authentication protocols require  
that you select a Certificate. By selecting the Properties button, you will be able to  
select a Certificate. “Certificate Assignment” on page 101 provides a website that out-  
lines how to create certificates for your network.  
•
Saving and exiting the radio setup: Once you’ve completed the configuration, press  
[ENTER], or tap on OK.  
The connection you created will be listed in the Wireless Information tab as a preferred  
network. The radio will search for the SSID and compare the WEP and authentication  
information you specified. If there is a match between the hand-held settings and the  
access point settings, the hand-held will communicate on the network through the  
access point.  
B.2  
Assigning An IP Address  
If your network is not using a DHCP server, you will need to assign an IP address. Refer to  
“IP Address” on page 19 for details about assigning an IP address.  
B.2.1  
B.2.2  
Name Server  
Refer to “Name Server” on page 21 for details about this option.  
Advanced Features  
To display the Advanced Wireless Settings dialog box:  
•
Tap on the Advanced button in the Wireless Information tab. (Refer to Figure B.3.)  
This window lists the available preferred networks.
