Welcome
Welcome to the world of Motorola digital wireless communi-
cations! We are pleased that you have chosen the Motorola
HC700-G GSM wireless Handheld Computer.
The HC700-G unique functionality and features make this
state-of-the-art device, superior for use in a wide range of
data collection and management applications.
This manual covers the basic operations and use of the
HC700-G. However, evaluation of the HC700-G performance
can be fully achieved by referring to Microsoft® Windows®
Mobile 2003 SE for Pocket PC Phone Edition documentation
and using the demo software applications provided with the
HC700-G.
What is the HC700-G Handheld
Computer?
The HC700 is a rugged handheld computer. The HC700 is
designed for field applications where fast data acquisition
and exchange is required.
The HC700-G has two models: the HC700-G model is the USA
version and the HCe700-G model is the European/Asian ver-
sion. This manual refers to all models as HC700-G.
The HC700-G serves as a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)
that enables portable access to Microsoft® Windows®
Mobile 2003 SE for Pocket PC Phone Edition applications. It
contains a built-in imager (camera) capable of reading 1D and
2D barcode (optional) labels. The imager can also capture
handwritten images such as signatures and correlate the sig-
nature to an adjacent barcode.
Wireless communication enables access to the outside world
through Global System for Mobile communication (GSM),
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and 802.11b Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN, WiFi).
Data exchange with peripheral wireless equipment can be
established through Wireless Personal Area Network
Enhanced IMD Users.book Page 1 Thursday, February 9, 2006 11:52 AM

(WPAN) using Bluetooth® radio. Personal wireless equipment
may include printers and body-worn devices such as the
Hands Free Imager HFI200 - a small size imager/barcode
reader, worn on two fingers.
When docked in a cradle, the HC700-G supports full RS232
and USB (1.1 Client) serial communication with a host com-
puter (USB via Microsoft® ActiveSync®) or a dial-up modem.
Ethernet connection can be established through 10/100 base
T interface via multi-slot communication cradles. The HC700-
G can also communicate through a built-in IrDA port.
The HC700-G is equipped with a QVGA 3.5 inch transflective
TFT display, built to withstand high impact. Display backlight
is designed to enable clear screen visibility under varied light
conditions.
A touch-screen enables easy on-screen menu navigation, in
addition to using keypad navigation. The keypad uses an
adjustable backlight illumination, designed for low-light
working conditions.
The HC700-G is powered by an 1800 mAh 7.2V Lithium-Ion
battery pack. The battery is fully recharged within four hours
when the HC700-G is docked in a cradle.
A drained battery can be replaced without data loss from the
HC700-G memory ("hot swap"). A built-in power source, inde-
pendent of the battery pack, maintains the data in the HC700-
G memory for at least 5 minutes until a fresh battery is
placed.
The HC700-G may use a line of Motorola docking cradles for
network communications and power charging.
The personal desktop cradle is designed for office use of the
HC700-G. The 8 and 4 slot charging/communication cradles
provide multi-slot docking in large operations. The vehicle
cradle is used for the mobile applications of the HC700-G,
allowing charging while driving.
For detailed installation and operation of each cradle, refer to
the specific user manual of each cradle.

Charging the Battery
The battery is
charged when the
HC700-G is docked
in the cradle. When
using a Personal
Desktop Cradle, a
stand-alone bat-
tery can be charged
in the battery
charging slot.
A fully charged bat-
tery provides 10
continuous hours of
typical usage or 24 hours in Standby mode.
New batteries are shipped partially charged.
Always use Motorola HC700-G original batteries and battery
chargers.
The HC700-G warranty does not cover damage caused by
using non-Motorola batteries and/or battery chargers.
The following sections describe the installation and charging
of the battery of the HC700-G.
The battery or HC700-G may carry warning symbols, defined
as follows:
Important safety information will follow.
Your battery or HC700-G should not be disposed of in a
fire.

Battery Replacement
When the battery
is drained, the
HC700 automati-
cally enters "Criti-
cal Low Battery"
state and shuts
down all functions
(the screen turns
off) to preserve the
data in its memory.
The HC700-G allows you to replace batteries without losing
information stored in its memory (“hot swap”). To avoid los-
ing data stored in the memory, a fresh battery must be
installed within five minutes after removing the drained bat-
tery.
To replace a battery perform the following steps:
1. Hold down the Power Button for at least four seconds
until the HC700-G screen turns off.
2. Remove the HC700-G hand-strap (see Figure 4).
3. Press the battery snap on the battery (see Figure 4) and
pull away the battery from the HC700-G.
4. Insert a fresh battery, bottom end first, into the battery
compartment.
5. Carefully, press the battery top downward until it clicks
and locks in place.
6. Press the Power Button - the HC700-G is now ready for
use.
First Time Battery Charge
Charge the battery before using the HC700-G for the first
time until the status LED inside the Power Button shows
steady green. While charging for the first time, the Status
LED starts flashing orange and turns to steady read. When
battery is fully charged, the LED shows steady green.
The HC700-G Cradle charges the battery most effectively
when it is at room temperature [approx. 68°F (20°C)]. The rec-

ommended battery charging temperature range is 32°F to
95°F (0°C to 35°C).
Routine Battery Charge
A battery is recharged to 90% of its full capacity after
approximately three and a half hours. The battery is fully
charged after four hours. During the charge, the Status LED
inside the Power Button shows steady red and turns green
when charging is completed.
Important: The battery will not charge if the HC700-G is
not properly docked in the cradle.
Battery Maintenance
The performance of the battery depends on the way the bat-
tery is treated. Therefore, to comply with Motorola Warranty
for batteries and to assure high performance and a long life
for the rechargeable battery, please read and follow the bat-
tery maintenance instructions described in the following sec-
tions.
Battery Storage
Do not store the battery in locations where the temperature
exceeds 140°F (60°C) or falls below -4°F (-20°C).
Batteries that have never been charged before may be stored
uncharged for up to three months in well-ventilated, cool,
dark, and dry areas without significant loss of lifespan.
Batteries which have already been charged and then stored
for more than two months should be recharged before use.
New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long
time may require a longer charging time.
Extending Battery Life
Battery performance depends on many factors, including the
temperature at which you operate your handheld computer;
the features and/or settings you select and use; peripherals
Enhanced IMD Users.book Page 8 Thursday, February 9, 2006 11:52 AM

attached to the computer and other application usage pat-
terns.
The HC700-G cradles will charge the battery most effectively
when it is at room temperature [approx. 68°F (20° C)]. Recom-
mended battery charging temperature range is 32°F to 95°F
(0°C to 35°C).
Batteries are expendable parts and gradually wear down and
require longer charging times. This is normal. If you charge
your battery regularly and notice a decrease in usage time or
an increase in charging time, then it is probably time to
switch to a new battery.
To ensure maximum service life of the HC700-G, always
replace the battery with a genuine Motorola replacement.
Battery Disposal
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly in accor-
dance with local requirements. Recycling facilities may not
exist in all areas. Please contact your local environmental
agency for more information regarding proper disposal.
To Prevent Injury or Burns
• USE ONLY SPECIFIED BATTERIES AND CHARGERS - RISK OF EXPLO-
SION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE!
• DO NOT DISPOSE OF ANY BATTERIES IN FIRE, AS THEY MAY
EXPLODE!
• DO NOT PUNCTURE OR ALLOW METAL TO CONTACT THE BATTERY
CONTACTS
• DO NOT DISPOSE OF IN WATER
• DO NOT DISASSEMBLE
To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal
objects to come in contact with or short-circuit the
battery contacts.

(see Figure 1) to turn on the HC700-G and resume operation.
Important: do not press the Power Button when the HC700-
G is out of the cradle and the Status LED (inside the Power
button) is red.
Turning Off
Turn off the HC700-G when not in use for long duration and
when charging is not available.
To turn off the HC700-G perform the following:
While the HC700-G is turned on, hold down the Power Button
for at least four seconds - the HC700-G will store the infor-
mation of the last used program screen and will shift to off
mode - no information will be lost.
Once turned on again, the HC700-G will return to the last pro-
gram screen that was in use.
Suspend Mode
Use Suspend mode as often as possible during daily use to
conserve battery power. For power saving, the HC700-G will
automatically turn to Suspend after 1 minute (default). To
configure the time duration before the HC700-G enters Sus-
pend mode, go to: Start Menu->Settings->System->Power-
>Advanced (duration range is 0 to 5 minutes).
To manually shift to Suspend mode - while the HC700-G is
turned on, momentarily press the Power Button (see Figure
1).

During Suspend mode the display turns off and the status
LED inside the Power Button slowly flashes green. To resume
operation, momentarily press the Power Button again.
In Suspend mode, the battery power is conserved by auto-
matically turning off the display and the computer sections of
the HC700-G. During Suspend mode, the Bluetooth radio con-
tinues to operate. When the HC700-G resumes operation, it
returns to the program screen shown prior to entering Sus-
pend mode.
The Status LED
The status LED,
located inside the
Power Button (see Fig-
ure 5), may show three
colors to indicate the
HC700-G power sta-
tus.
The LED indications are not identical and have different
meaning when the HC700-G is used outside of the cradle and
when docked in the cradle.

Using the Keypad
The HC700-G keypad enables the user to enter both alpha-
betic and numeric data to the software application. However,
since the keypad can only contain a limited number of keys,
some special keys are assigned to perform special tasks that
are usually found on full-size computer keyboards. These are
produced using a combination of the existing keys on the
HC700-G keypad.
Two sets of keys exist on the HC700-G:
1. Keys active when in Alphabetic mode, which are those
seen on overlay of the HC700-G keypad.
2. Keys active when in Shift or Function mode which are
those seen next to each key on the HC700-G keypad
panel.
Press the <SHIFT> key to toggle between the Alphabetic and
Numeric keypad modes. Figure 6 shows the HC700-G keypad
and Table 3 describes the HC700-G keys assignment.
