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. A-2 MC55 User Guide Audio Modes The MC55 can be in any one of the seven different audio modes. The mode is visually indicated by the VQM icon on the title bar. VQM icon Figure A-1 VQM Icon in Title Bar Table A-1 VQM Icons Description AF Icon The VQM icon indicates that the device is in speakerphone mode without Acoustic Echo Cancellation (indicated by the gray VQM icon). The audio modes and their corresponding VQM title bar icons are: Speakerphone with Acoustic Echo Cancellation. Speakerphone without Acoustic Echo Cancellation. Handset with Acoustic Echo Cancellation (device is in handset mode only while on a call). Headset while on a call (Acoustic Echo Cancellation is not enabled for wired or Bluetooth headsets). Headset while not on a call. Bluetooth headset while on a call (Acoustic Echo Cancellation is not enabled for wired or Bluetooth headsets). White icon. Bluetooth headset while not on a call. Gray icon. Changing Audio Modes Depending upon the audio mode being used, the mode can be changed by tapping the VQM icon in the title bar. The audio mode can only be changed while the user is on a call. Using the Interfaces A-3 The table below lists the current audio mode and the subsequent audio mode after tapping the VQM icon. Table A-2 Changing Audio Modes Audio Mode before Tapping VQM Icon Audio Mode after Tapping VQM Icon Speakerphone Handset Handset Speakerphone Wired headset Wired headset Bluetooth headset Speakerphone If the audio mode is set to speakerphone and the user taps the VQM icon, the audio mode changes to handset. AF 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 A-2 VQM Audio Control Dialog Box A-4 MC55 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. AF 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. A AF Glossary API. An interface by means of which one software component communicates with or controls another.

AF Print Contrast Signal (PCS). Measurement of the contrast (brightness difference) between the bars and spaces of a symbol. A minimum PCS value is needed for a bar code symbol to be scannable. PCS = (RL - RD) / RL, where RL is the reflectance factor of the background and RD the reflectance factor of the dark bars. Programming Mode. The state in which a scanner is configured for parameter values. See Scanning Mode. Quiet Zone. A clear space, containing no dark marks, which precedes the start character of a bar code symbol and follows the stop character. QWERTY. A standard keyboard commonly used on North American and some European PC keyboards. “QWERTY” refers to the arrangement of keys on the left side of the third row of keys. RAM. Random Access Memory. Data in RAM can be accessed in random order, and quickly written and read. Reflectance. Amount of light returned from an illuminated surface. Resolution. The narrowest element dimension which is distinguished by a particular reading device or printed with a particular device or method. RF. Radio Frequency. ROM. Read-Only Memory. Data stored in ROM cannot be changed or removed. Router. A device that connects networks and supports the required protocols for packet filtering. Routers are typically used to extend the range of cabling and to organize the topology of a network into subnets. See Subnet. Glossary - 9 RS-232. An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard that defines the connector, connector pins, and signals used to transfer data serially from one device to another. Scan Area. Area intended to contain a symbol. Scanner. An electronic device used to scan bar code symbols and produce a digitized pattern that corresponds to the bars and spaces of the symbol. Its three main components are: 1) Light source (laser or photoelectric cell) - illuminates a bar code,; 2) Photodetector - registers the difference in reflected light (more light reflected from spaces); 3) Signal conditioning circuit - transforms optical detector output into a digitized bar pattern. Scanning Mode. The scanner is energized, programmed and ready to read a bar code. AF Scanning Sequence. A method of programming or configuring parameters for a bar code reading system by scanning bar code menus. SDK. Software Development Kit Self-Checking Code. A symbology that uses a checking algorithm to detect encoding errors within the characters of a bar code symbol. Shared Key. Shared Key authentication is an algorithm where both the AP and the MU share an authentication key. SHIP. Symbol Host Interface Program. SID. System Identification code. An identifier issued by the FCC for each market. It is also broadcast by the cellular carriers to allow cellular devices to distinguish between the home and roaming service. SMDK. Symbol Mobility Developer’s Kit. Soft Reset. See Warm Boot. Space. The lighter element of a bar code formed by the background between bars. Specular Reflection. The mirror-like direct reflection of light from a surface, which can cause difficulty decoding a bar code. Start/Stop Character. A pattern of bars and spaces that provides the scanner with start and stop reading instructions and scanning direction. The start and stop characters are normally to the left and right margins of a horizontal code. STEP. Symbol Terminal Enabler Program. Subnet. A subset of nodes on a network that are serviced by the same router. See Router. Subnet Mask. A 32-bit number used to separate the network and host sections of an IP address. A custom subnet mask subdivides an IP network into smaller subsections. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up with the IP address to turn part of the host ID address field into a field for subnets. Default is often 255.255.255.0. Substrate. A foundation material on which a substance or image is placed. SVTP. Symbol Virtual Terminal Program. Glossary - 10 MC55 User Guide Symbol. A scannable unit that encodes data within the conventions of a certain symbology, usually including start/stop characters, quiet zones, data characters and check characters. Symbol Aspect Ratio. The ratio of symbol height to symbol width. Symbol Height. The distance between the outside edges of the quiet zones of the first row and the last row. Symbol Length. Length of symbol measured from the beginning of the quiet zone (margin) adjacent to the start character to the end of the quiet zone (margin) adjacent to a stop character. Symbology. The structural rules and conventions for representing data within a particular bar code type (e.g. UPC/EAN, Code 39, PDF417, etc.). AF TCP/IP. (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) A communications protocol used to internetwork dissimilar systems. This standard is the protocol of the Internet and has become the global standard for communications. TCP provides transport functions, which ensures that the total amount of bytes sent is received correctly at the other end. UDP is an alternate transport that does not guarantee delivery. It is widely used for real-time voice and video transmissions where erroneous packets are not retransmitted. IP provides the routing mechanism. TCP/IP is a routable protocol, which means that all messages contain not only the address of the destination station, but the address of a destination network. This allows TCP/IP messages to be sent to multiple networks within an organization or around the world, hence its use in the worldwide Internet. Every client and server in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address, which is either permanently assigned or dynamically assigned at startup. Telnet. A terminal emulation protocol commonly used on the Internet and TCP/IP-based networks. It allows a user at a terminal or computer to log onto a remote device and run a program. Terminal. See Mobile Computer. Terminal Emulation. A “terminal emulation” emulates a character-based mainframe session on a remote non-mainframe terminal, including all display features, commands and function keys. The VC5000 Series supports Terminal Emulations in 3270, 5250 and VT220. Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR). A program under DOS that ends its foreground execution to remain resident in memory to service hardware/software interrupts, providing background operation. It remains in memory and may provide services on behalf of other DOS programs. TFTP. (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) A version of the TCP/IP FTP (File Transfer Protocol) protocol that has no directory or password capability. It is the protocol used for upgrading firmware, downloading software and remote booting of diskless devices. Tolerance. Allowable deviation from the nominal bar or space width. Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. See TCP/IP. Trivial File Transfer Protocol. See TFTP. TSR. See Terminate and Stay Resident. Glossary - 11 UDP. User Datagram Protocol. A protocol within the IP protocol suite that is used in place of TCP when a reliable delivery is not required. For example, UDP is used for real-time audio and video traffic where lost packets are simply ignored, because there is no time to retransmit. If UDP is used and a reliable delivery is required, packet sequence checking and error notification must be written into the applications. UPC. Universal Product Code. A relatively complex numeric symbology. Each character consists of two bars and two spaces, each of which is any of four widths. The standard symbology for retail food packages in the United States. AF Visible Laser Diode (VLD). A solid state device which produces visible laser light. Warm Boot. A warm boot restarts the mobile computer by closing all running programs. All data that is not saved to flash memory is lost.
