RF Exposure Information (SAR) This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
FR6076 User Guide 6as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.014 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.00407 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: H9PFR6070. For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Using theFR6076 46 Data Capture The FR6070offers linear scanning as data capture. NOTE To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the FR6070. A sample scanning application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com. Linear Scanning FR6070with 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. 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 special 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 FR6070farther away for larger symbols. • Move the FR6070closer for symbols with bars that are close together. NOTE Scanning procedures depend on the application and FR6070configuration. An application may use different scanning procedures from the one listed above. 1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the FR6070. 2. Aim the scan window at the bar code.
Using theFR6076 47 Figure 2-16 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. Figure 2-17 Linear Scanner Aiming Pattern 4. Release the scan button.

54 Chapter 3 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. FR6070s with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as phones, and other mobile computers. 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.
55 The Bluetooth radio in this FR6070operates 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. Turning the Bluetooth Radio Mode On and Off 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 FR6070. 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. Disabling Bluetooth To disable Bluetooth, tap Bluetooth icon to enter Wireless Manager. Tap Bluetooth icon to change on to off. The Bluetooth icon changes to indicate that Bluetooth is disabled.
