RF Exposure Information (SAR)
FR6074
User Guide
6
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
as 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 0.151 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.299 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among device
models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.)
For WLAN Head SAR and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.016 W/kg for WLAN Head SAR
and 0.019 W/kg for WLAN Body SAR.
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: H9PFR6074.
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 Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
FR6074 is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC information,
including the HAC rating of this product. some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless
telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing-device users in finding
phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been
rated have a label on the box. FR6074 has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M3 and/or T3
rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and
the degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to
use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference with hearing
devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4
meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone
Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices contain
telecoils.) The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from
your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to those of phones. Ask your hearing health-care
professional for the rating of your hearing aid.
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The more
immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from wireless devices.
For additional information about the FCC's actions with regard to hearing aid compatible wireless devices and other
steps the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to telecommunications services, please
go to www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
Turning on the HAC Setting
FR6074
User Guide
7
When the HAC setting is on, FR6074 sends the audio from your phone calls to the telecoil rather than to the
microphone of your hearing aid. You are likely to hear calls much better because volume is increased and background
noise and feedback are diminished. The HAC setting improves only the calls you listen to through the earpiece. Turn off
the [Bluetooth] function. Turn off the [WiFi] function. It does not affect calls heard on the speakerphone or with or a
headset. HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your battery consumption when it's turned on.

Battery
and
Memory
Backup Battery
Before using the FR6074 for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber Charging/Battery Status LED
remains lit (see Table 1-2 on page 1-7 for charge status indications). To charge the FR6074, use a cable or a cradle
with the appropriate power supply. For information about the accessories available for the FR6074, see Chapter 6,
Accessories.
The FR6074 is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the fully-charged main
battery. When using the FR6074 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
FR6074's main battery is removed. When the FR6074 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 FR6074 Integrator Guide.

Data Capture
The FR6074 offers linear scanning as data capture.
NOTE
To perform data capture a scanning enabled application must be installed on the FR6074. A sample
scanning application can be downloaded from the Motorola Support site at http://support.symbol.com.
Linear Scanning
FR6074 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.
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 FR6074 farther away for larger symbols.
• Move the FR6074 closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
NOTE
Scanning procedures depend on the application and FR6074 configuration. An application may use different
scanning procedures from the one listed above.
1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the FR6074.
2. Aim the scan window at the bar code.

Chapter 3 Using GPS
Introduction
The FR6074 includes Global Positioning System (GPS) technology using the Qualcomm chip. 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 FR6074 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.
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 FR6074. Refer to
the application’s user guide for application installation and setup information.
FR6074 GPS Setup
The GPS-enabled FR6074 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.
Ensure that the following settings are set on the FR6074:
1. Ta p Start > Settings > System > External GPS icon.
2. In the Programs tab, select GPD1 from the GPS program port drop-down list.
3. In the Hardware tab, select COM6 in the GPS hardware port drop-down list.
Using GPS
52
4. Tap ok to close the Setting window.
NOTE
If an application error message appears indicating that the COM port cannot be opened, ensure
that a free COM port is selected in the GPS hardware port drop-down list.
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 FR6074 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 FR6074 does not go into suspend
mode. If the FR6074
suspends then the power to the GPS radio is removed. Upon resume the GPS receiver must
reacquire a valid GPS
signal, resulting in 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 FR6074.
2. Insert the microSD card into the slot.
3. Replace the Memory Card Cover.
Downloading GPS Data
Use this function to download GPS data to enhance GPS performance. This may require additional
charge for data connection.
1. Tap Start > Program > GPSXtra icon.
2. Entering GPSXtra to download GPS data.
Using GPS
53
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 FR6074 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 FR6074 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and
windshields, which can block the FR6074 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve
GPS signal strength, place the FR6074 where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight
is required between the FR6074 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
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 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 FR6074 to
communicate with a location server. Refer to the EMDK Help file for information on setting up
SUPL on the FR6074.
54
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.
FR6074s with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (e.g., files, appointments, and tasks) with other
Bluetooth enabled devices such as phones, and other mobile computers. To use the FR6074 as a modem, create a
dial-up modem connection between a computer and FR6074.
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 FR6074 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.
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 FR6074. 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.

Smart Dialing
Smart Dialing makes it easy to dial a phone number. When you start entering numbers or characters, Smart Dialing
automatically searches and sorts the contact entries on the SIM card, in Contacts, and the phone numbers in Call
History (including incoming, outgoing, and missed calls). You can then select the desired number or contact from
the filtered list to dial.
Open the Phone screen, then tap the keys on the Phone keypad that correspond to the phone number or contact to
call. The contact panel lists contacts that match the sequence that you entered.
Smart Dialing starts looking for numbers or contacts that match the sequence entered.
To find a phone number:
• Enter the first one or two digits to find a phone number in Call History.
• Enter the first three digits or more to find a phone number from the saved Contacts and SIM card.
To find a contact name:
• Enter the first letter of a contact’s first name or last name. Smart Dialing searches for the letter starting
from the first character of a contact name as well as from the character that appears after a space, dash,
or underscore in a contact name. For example, if you tap number “2” which is associated with [a, b, c] on
the Phone keypad, contact names such as the following will be considered matches: “Smith, Bernard”,
“Adams, John”, “Carlson, Eileen”, “Dillon, Albert”, “Childs, Larry”, “Cooper, Robert” and “Parks, Celine”.
• If the matching list is long narrow down the search further by entering another letter. Using the same
example above, tap “3” which is associated with (d, e, f), the matching list is narrowed down to the
following names: “Smith, Bernard”, “Adams, John”, and “Parks, Celine”.
