Charging the Battery  
CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page 7-2.  
Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery  
Before using the MC75 for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status LED  
remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-8 for charge status indications). To charge the MC75, use a cable or a cradle  
with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the MC75, see Chapter 6,  
Accessories.  
The MC75 is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main  
battery. When using the MC75 for the first time, the backup battery requires approximately 36 hours to fully charge.  
This is also true any time the backup battery is discharged, which occurs when the main battery is removed for  
several hours. The backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 15 minutes (at room temperature) when  
the MC75's main battery is removed. When the MC75 reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main  
battery and backup battery retains RAM data in memory for at least 48 hours.  
To charge the main battery, use either a charging cable or a cradle. For cable and cradle setup and charging  
procedures refer to the MC75 Integrator Guide.  
Single Slot USB/Serial Cradle  
Four Slot Ethernet Cradle  
Four Slot Charge Only Cradle  
Vehicle Cradle.  
To charge the main battery:  
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.  
2. Insert the MC75 into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC75 begins charging. The Charging/Battery Status  
LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid amber when fully charged. See Table 1-2 for charging  
indications.

See Chapter 6, Accessories for information on using accessories to change spare batteries.  
Charging Temperature  
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Charging is intelligently controlled by the  
MC75.  
To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the MC75 or accessory alternately enables and disables battery  
charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC75 or accessory indicates when charging is  
disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. See Table 1-2.  
Powering On the MC75  
Press the Power button to turn on the MC75. If the MC75 does not power on perform a warm boot. See Resetting  
the MC75 on page 2-15.  
When turning the MC75 on for the first time, the splash screen displays for about a minute as the MC75 initializes  
its flash file system, then the calibration window appears. Note that these windows also appear upon cold boot.  
NOTE When the MC75 powers up after inserting a battery for the first time, the device boots and powers on  
automatically.  
Calibrating the Screen

Data Capture  
The MC75 offers three types of data capture options:  
Linear scanning  
Imaging  
Digital camera.  
NOTE To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the MC75. A sample scanning  
application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com.  
Linear Scanning  
MC75 with an integrated linear scanner have the following features:  
Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, and 1-D code types.  
Intuitive aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.  
Imaging  
MC75 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 for easy point-and-shoot operation.  
The imager uses digital camera technology to take a digital picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its  
memory, and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the data from the image.  
Operational Modes  
MC75 with an integrated imager support three modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pulling the  
trigger or pressing the Scan button.  
Decode Mode: In this mode, the MC75 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 trigger, or until it decodes a bar code.  
NOTE To enable Pick List Mode, download the Control Panel applet from the web site at http://support.symbol.com.  
Pick List can also be set in an application using a API command.  
Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in  
the MC75’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair 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 MC75’s field of view. This is useful for  
capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.  
Using the MC75 2 - 35  
Digital Camera  
MC75 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.  
Scanning Considerations  
Typically, 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:  
Range  
Any scanning device decodes well over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from  
the bar code. This range varies according to bar code density and scanning device optics.  
Scanning within range brings quick and constant decodes; scanning too close or too far away prevents  
decodes. Move the scanner closer and further away to find the right working range for the bar codes being  
scanned.  
Angle  
Scanning angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the  
scanner from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner.  
To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce directly back. But don’t scan at too sharp  
an angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode.  
Practice quickly shows what tolerances to work within.  
Hold the MC75 farther away for larger symbols.  
Move the MC75 closer for symbols with bars that are close together.  
NOTE Scanning procedures depend on the application and MC75 configuration. An application may use different  
scanning procedures from the one listed above.  
Linear Scanning  
1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the MC75.  
2. Aim the scan window at the bar code.  
2 - 36 MC75 User Guide  
Figure 2-19 Linear Scanning  
3. Press the scan button. Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. 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.

3. Press the scan button. The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the bar code is within  
the area formed by the brackets in the aiming pattern. 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 MC75 is in Pick List Mode, the imager does not decode the bar code until the  
crosshair touches the bar code.

Chapter 3 Using GPS Navigation  
Introduction  
The MC75 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.  
WARNING! When using the MC75 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.  
Software Installation  
Third-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 MC75. Refer to the  
application’s user guide for application installation and setup information.  
MC75 GPS Setup  
The GPS-enabled MC75 uses Microsoft Windows Mobile 6, so the operating system automatically manages  
access to the GPS receiver to allow multiple programs to simultaneously access GPS data.  
By default, the MC75 has the following Settings:  
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.  
3 - 2 MC75 User Guide  
To access the GPS receiver from multiple programs simultaneously, the user can either use the Microsoft GPS API  
or change the GPS program port setting and access the GPS program port in the multiplexed way.  
Operation  
Acquiring 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 MC75 being unable to compute  
the initial position quickly. When operating the device indoors access to the GPS signals may be limited or  
unavailable.  
NOTE When using a GPS navigation application, ensure that the MC75 does not go into suspend mode. If the MC75  
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.  
GPS Maps on microSD Cards  
GPS navigation software vendors may sell maps on microSD cards. If using a microSD card with the GPS  
navigation software:  
1. Remove the Memory Card Cover on the side of the MC75.  
2. Insert the microSD card into the slot.  
3. Replace the Memory Card Cover.  
Answering a Phone Call While Using GPS  
If 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.  
NOTE Anytime you are using GPS on the MC75 and you receive a phone call, the audio on the GPS navigation software  
is muted until you finish the call.  
Losing the GPS Signal While in a Vehicle  
GPS performance on the MC75 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which  
can block the MC75 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the MC75  
where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight is required between the MC75 and the GPS satellites to  
access information from the satellites.  
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system that allows the user to track their position anywhere on the earth.  
Assisted GPS  
NOTE On devices with OEM version 03.38.0004, to configure the MC75 to obtain GPS data from a SUPL server see  
Assisted GPS on page C-19 for more information.  
GPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes. A Stand-alone GPS receiver downloads data  
from GPS satellites. It can take several minutes to get a fix. By using GPS Location servers, A-GPS dramatically  
Using GPS Navigation 3 - 3  
improves the performance of the Time To First Fix (TTFF) of GPS receivers by providing them with data that they  
would ordinarily have to download from the GPS satellites. With the A-GPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster  
and more reliably.  
A-GPS follows the Secure User Plane Location (SUPL) protocol which allows the MC75 to communicate with a  
location server. Refer to the EMDK Help file for information on setting up SUPL on the MC75.  
3 - 4 MC75 User Guide  
Chapter 4 Using Bluetooth  
Introduction  
Bluetooth-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.  
MC75s 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 MC75  
as a modem, create a dial-up modem connection between a computer and MC75.  
Motorola mobile computers with Bluetooth technology use the StoneStreet Bluetooth stack. To program Bluetooth  
within the MC75 refer to the Enterprise Mobility Developer Kit (EMDK) Help.  
Adaptive Frequency Hopping  
Adaptive 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.  
4 - 2 MC75 User Guide  
The Bluetooth radio in this MC75 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.  
Security  
The 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.  
Using Bluetooth 4 - 3  
Turning the Bluetooth Radio Mode On and Off  
NOTE On devices with Windows Mobile 6.5.3, turn the Bluetooth radio on or off using the Wireless Manager. Tap the  
Status bar and select the Connectivity icon. Tap Wireless Manager.  
Turn off the Bluetooth radio to save power or if entering an area with radio restrictions (e.g., an airplane). When the  
radio is off, other Bluetooth devices cannot see or connect to the MC75. Turn on the Bluetooth radio to exchange  
information with other Bluetooth devices (within range). Communicate only with Bluetooth radios in close proximity.  
NOTE To achieve the best battery life turn off radios not in use.

Appendix B Voice Quality Manager  
Introduction  
The Voice Quality Manager (VQM) is a software package that resides on the MC75. VQM enables a set of features  
for Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) calls, and a sub-set of those features for cellular line (GSM or CDMA) calls. The VQM  
user interface is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, so complex tasks such as enabling the Acoustic Echo  
Canceller (AEC) while a call is in progress are done with very little or no user intervention.  
Features  
The VQM software:  
Improves the voice transmission quality without using additional battery power.  
Turns on the AEC for VoWiFi calls automatically, without user intervention.  
Prioritizes the outgoing audio IP packets.  
Provides user-selectable audio modes (speakerphone and handset) with a single tap of the VQM icon. A  
VQM icon in the title bar of the device indicates the audio mode currently in use.  
NDIS 5.1 compliant.  
Enabling VQM  
To enable VQM:  
1. Tap Start > Programs > File Explorer.  
2. Navigate to the Windows folder.  
3. Locate the file VQMAudioNotify.  
4. Tap the filename to enable VQM.  
B - 2 MC75 User Guide  
Audio Modes  
The MC75 can be in any one of the seven different audio modes. The mode is visually indicated by the VQM icon  
on the title bar.

If the audio mode is set to speakerphone and the user taps the VQM icon, the audio mode changes to handset.  
If the user is using a Bluetooth headset, tapping the VQM icon un-pairs the Bluetooth headset from the device  
causing the audio to be routed to the default mode. In VQM 2.5, there is no way to go back to the Bluetooth  
headset using the VQM icon if it is un-paired The only way to reconnect the Bluetooth headset to the device is by  
using the BTExplorer application.  
If the user taps the VQM icon when a wired headset is connected to the mobile device, the audio mode does not  
change. The audio continues to get routed to the wired headset.  
If the user taps the VQM icon while not on a call there is not change to the audio mode.  
Tap and hold the VQM icon in the title bar to display a notification dialog box that contains:  
AEC: The Acoustic Echo Canceller status  
DSCP Marked Packets: The number of outbound voice packets that have been recognized and marked as  
high priority by VQM.  
VQM Version: The VQM version number.  
Figure B-2 VQM Audio Control Dialog Box  
B - 4 MC75 User Guide  
Voice Packet Prioritization  
IP soft phones transmit voice packets in the same manner as any other application that sends data over the  
network. On a network with different types of traffic, voice packets are given the same priority as any other traffic,  
and therefore may be subject to delays.  
WiFi Multi-media (WMM) is a solution to this problem. WMM is a specification that supports prioritizing traffic, and  
“higher-priority” packets can be given preferential treatment.  
To make use of WMM, the devices that generate traffic must mark their packets as high or normal priority in a field  
in the IP packet called Differentiated Services Code-Point (DSCP). The wireless infrastructure, which must be  
configured to support WMM, gives a higher priority to packets that have been marked as high priority through  
DSCP marking by the devices that generate traffic.  
VQM detects if there is an ongoing Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) call, and if so, marks outgoing voice packets (Only  
outgoing voice packets can be marked. The incoming voice packets have already been through the network, so it  
makes no sense to mark them.) as high-priority using DSCP. This enables WMM-compatible wireless infrastructure  
to treat the voice packets preferentially. This results in fewer delays for voice packets, which in turn improves the  
call quality.  
Acoustic Echo Cancellation  
Acoustic Echo occurs during a voice call when the audio from the earpiece enters the microphone of the same  
device. This results in the person at the other end hearing back a delayed version of his/her own voice (“Echo”).  
Needless to say, “Echo” is not desirable, and needs to be suppressed. This is the functionality performed by the  
Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC). There are two approaches to suppressing the Echo:  
Turn the Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC) on permanently. This approach is not very efficient because the  
device consumes more power when the AEC is on.  
Turn the Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC) on only when there is an ongoing call.  
VQM follows the second of the two approaches mentioned above.  
VQM automatically turns on the Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC) when the mobile device is in a VoWiFi call. When  
the call is terminated, VQM turns the AEC off. Note that the AEC is turned on for speakerphone and handset  
modes and does not get turned on for wired headset and Bluetooth headset modes. The AEC is not required for  
wired headset because the audio volume is quite low (because of the proximity of the earpiece to the ear), and  
therefore it is very unlikely for the audio from the earpiece to go in to the mouthpiece. Bluetooth headsets typically  
have an Echo Canceller built in. Turning the AEC on only while on a call saves battery power, compared to leaving  
the AEC turned on permanently.  
The AEC is not turned on for Cellular calls because the WWAN phone application has a built-in echo canceller.  
Limitations  
There is no VPN support in VQM.  
Only the Avaya softphone is supported.  
Disabling VQM  
To disable VQM perform a warm boot.

GPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes. A Stand-alone GPS receiver downloads data  
from GPS satellites. It can take several minutes to get a fix. By using GPS Location servers, A-GPS dramatically  
improves the performance of the Time To First Fix (TTFF) of GPS receivers by providing them with data that they  
C - 20 MC75 User Guide  
would ordinarily have to download from the GPS satellites and other aiding data that helps the acquisition. With the  
A-GPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster and more reliably.  
A-GPS follows the Secure User Plane Location (SUPL) protocol which allows the MC75 to communicate with a  
location server.  
To configure SUPL on the MC75:  
1. Tap Start > Settings > System > GPS Setup icon.  
Figure C-20 SUPL Setup Tab

generating the server IP address from the IMSI or when using the Motorola server.  
6. Enter the SUPL Server port number in the Port field. The port number is not required when using the Motorola  
server.  
7. Select Secure Connection to enable the TLS connection between the MC75 and the server. This option is not  
available when using the Motorola server.  
8. User ID type is to choose which ID type to use during the SUPL session. This option is not available when  
using the Motorola server.  
Use the MISC tab to enable Smart Re-aiding and Timing Control on Opening. These options are only available  
when Enable SET Initiated SUPL on Opening is enabled on the SUPL Setup tab.  
Windows Mobile 6.5 C - 21  
Figure C-21 MISC Tab  
Smart Re-Aiding causes the MC75 to reconnect to the SUPL server and download new A-GPS data if there are  
satellites in view and the number of satellites in use fall below the SVLimit value and the length of time passed  
since the last SUPL session is more than the value set in the Interval field.  
Timing Control on Opening determines whether a SUPL session is established when the GPS port is opened. If  
the length of time passed since the last successful SUPL session is less than the set interval, a SUPL session is  
not established when the GPS port is opened.
