Chapter 6 Using GPS Navigation
Introduction
The MC45 includes Global Positioning System (GPS) technology using the QC Modem Solution 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.
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 MC45. Refer to the
application’s user guide for application installation and setup information.
MC45 GPS Setup
By default, the MC45 has the following settings:
1. Tap Start > Settings > System > External GPS icon.
2. In the Programs tab, the GPS program port is set to COM6.
3. In the Hardware tab, the GPS hardware port is set to None.
Multiple programs can simultaneously access GPS data. Each program must use Microsoft GPS API or COM8 to
access the GPS data.
WARNING!When using the MC45 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.
DRAFT 9
6 - 2 MC45 User Guide
Operation
Acquiring satellite signals may take several seconds to 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 MC45
being unable to compute the initial position quickly. When operating the device indoors access to the GPS signals
may be limited or unavailable.
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 MC45.
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.
Losing the GPS Signal While in a Vehicle
GPS performance on the MC45 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which
can block the MC45 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the MC45
where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight is required between the MC45 and the GPS satellites to
access information from the satellites.
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 and other aiding data that helps the acquisition. With the
A-GPS data, GPS receivers can operate faster and more reliably.
The GPS Assist application provides the ability to modify the settings associated with obtaining GPS data.
Tap Start > Connections > GPS Assist icon.
NOTEWhen using a GPS navigation application, ensure that the MC45 does not go into suspend mode. If the MC45
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.
NOTEAnytime you are using GPS on the MC45 and you receive a phone call, the audio on the GPS navigation software
is muted until you finish the call.

Chapter 7 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
(802.15.4). Bluetooth wireless technology is specifically designed for short-range (30 feet/10 meters)
communication and low power consumption.
MC45 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 MC45
as a modem, create a dial-up modem connection between a computer and MC45.
The MC45 with Bluetooth technology uses the Microsoft Bluetooth stack. To write an application that uses the
Microsoft Bluetooth stack APIs, 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.
DRAFT 9
7 - 2 MC45 User Guide
The Bluetooth radio in this MC45 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.
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.
The Microsoft stack supports Smart-pairing. For detailed information, refer to the Microsoft MSDN.
NOTE It is not recommended to perform Bluetooth wireless technology inquiry when high rate 802.11b operation is
required.

Suspend
When there is an active Bluetooth connection, the Bluetooth radio goes into low power mode maintaining the active
connection. When there is no active connection, the Bluetooth radio turns off.
Resume
When the MC45 resumes, Bluetooth turns on if it was on prior to suspend.
NOTE If there is an active Bluetooth connection between the MC45 and another Bluetooth device and there is no
data activity, the MC45 will timeout. However, if the user presses the Power button on the MC45, the MC45
will suspend (except when on a call) and upon receiving data from a remote Bluetooth device, the MC45 will
wake from suspend mode. For example, headset redial or Bluetooth scanner sending data to the MC45.

T
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.
Terminal. See Mobile Computer.
Tolerance. Allowable deviation from the nominal bar or space width.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. See TCP/IP.
U
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.
