Linear Imager
The device with an integrated linear imager has the following features:
• Reading a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular 1-D code types.
• Intuitive aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its memory,
and executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the image.
Operational Modes
The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by
pressing the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its field of
view. The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes a
barcode.
NOTE: To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.
• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a barcode when more than one barcode
is in the device’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the required
barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple barcodes and
manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or 2D).
NOTE: To enable Basic MultiBarcode Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API
command.
• Basic MultiBarcode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode a specific number of
unique barcodes within its field of view. The device remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan
button, or until it decodes all the barcodes.
• The device attempts to scan the programmed number of unique barcodes (from 2 through 100).
• If there are duplicate barcodes (same symbology type and data), only one of the duplicate barcodes is
decoded and the remainder are ignored. If the label has two duplicate barcodes plus another two
different barcodes, a maximum of three barcodes will be decoded from that label; one will be ignored as
a duplicate.
• Barcodes can be of multiple symbology types and still be acquired together. For example, if the
specified quantity for a Basic MultiBarcode scan is four, two barcodes can be symbology type Code 128
and the other two can be symbology type Code 39.
• If the specified number of unique barcodes is not initially in view of the device, the device will not decode
any data until the device is moved to capture the additional barcode(s) or time out occurs. If the device
field of view contains a number of barcodes greater than the specified quantity, the device randomly
decodes barcode(s) until the specified number of unique barcodes is reached. For example, if the count
is set to two and eight barcodes are in the field of view, the device decodes the first two unique barcodes
it sees, returning the data in random order.
• Basic MultiBarcode Mode does not support concatenated barcodes.

Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan, and decode, with a few quick trial efforts to master it.
However, consider the following to optimize scanning performance:
• Range: Scanners decode best over a particular working range — minimum and maximum distances from
the barcode. This range varies according to barcode density and scanning device optics. Scan within range
for 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 barcodes being scanned.
• Angle: Scanning angle is important for quick decodes. When the illumination/flash reflects directly back into
the imager, the specular reflection can blind/saturate the imager. To avoid this, scan the barcode so that the
beam does not bounce directly back. Do not 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 device farther away for larger symbols.
• Move the device closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the app and device configuration. An app may use different scanning
procedures from the one listed above.
Scanning with Internal Imager

Configuring for a Proxy Server

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other
servers. A client connects to the proxy server and requests some service, such as a file, connection, web
page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to
its filtering rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the
filter, the proxy provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf
of the client.
It is important for enterprise customers to be able to set up secure computing environments within their
companies, making proxy configuration essential. Proxy configuration acts as a security barrier ensuring that
the proxy server monitors all traffic between the Internet and the intranet. This is normally an integral part of
security enforcement in corporate firewalls within intranets.

Bluetooth
Bluetooth 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 (10 m (32.8 ft))
communication and low power consumption.
100
Wireless
Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information (for example, files, appointments, and tasks)
with other Bluetooth enabled devices such as printers, access points, and other mobile devices.
The device supports Bluetooth Low Energy. Bluetooth Low Energy is targeted at applications in the healthcare,
fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. It provides reduced power consumption and cost while
maintaining standard Bluetooth range.
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 enterprise devices to operate in any infrastructure.
The Bluetooth radio in this device operates as a Class 2 device power class. The maximum output power is 2.5
mW and the expected range is 10 m (32.8 ft). A definition of ranges based on power class is difficult to obtain
due to power and device differences, and whether in 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 required 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 used to authenticate the devices
and create a link key for them. Entering a common personal identification number (PIN) in the devices being
paired generates the initialization key. The PIN 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 or passkey 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 do not store the PIN codes in the device
• Implement application-level security.

Application Deployment
Security
The device implements a set of security policies that determine whether an application is allowed to run
and, if allowed, with what level of trust. To develop an application, you must know the security
configuration of the device, and how to sign an application with the appropriate certificate to allow the
application to run (and to run with the needed level of trust).
NOTE: Ensure the date is set correctly before installing certificates or when accessing secure web sites.
Secure Certificates
If the VPN or Wi-Fi networks rely on secure certificates, obtain the certificates and store them in the
device’s secure credential storage, before configuring access to the VPN or Wi-Fi networks.
If downloading the certificates from a web site, set a password for the credential storage. The device
supports X.509 certificates saved in PKCS#12 key store files with a .p12 extension (if key store has a .pfx
or other extension, change to .p12).
The device also installs any accompanying private key or certificate authority certificates contained in the
key store.
Installing a Secure Certificate

To install a secure certificate:
1. Copy the certificate from the host computer to the root of the microSD card or the device’s internal
memory. See USB Communication on page 38 for information about connecting the device to a host
computer and copying files.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Touch Security > Advanced > Encryption & credentials.
4. Touch Install from storage.
5. Navigate to the location of the certificate file.
6. Touch the filename of the certificate to install.
7. If prompted, enter the password for credential storage. If a password has not been set for the credential
storage, enter a password for it twice and then touch OK.
8. If prompted, enter the certificate’s password and touch OK.
178
9. Enter a name for the certificate and in the Credential use drop-down, select VPN and apps or Wi-Fi.
10. Touch OK.
The certificate can now be used when connecting to a secure network. For security, the certificate is
deleted from the microSD card or internal memory.

devices. It is designed for use with Google's Android Studio and includes Android class libraries such as
Barcode, sample applications with source code, and the associated documentation.
EMDK for Android allows applications to take full advantage of the capabilities that Zebra devices have to
offer. It embeds Profile Manager technology within Android Studio IDE, providing a GUI-based
development tool designed specifically for Zebra devices. This allows fewer lines of code, resulting in
reduced development time, effort, and errors.
For more information go to: techdocs.zebra.com.
StageNow
StageNow is Zebra's next-generation Android Staging Solution built on the MX platform. It allows quick
and easy creation of device profiles, and can deploy to devices simply by scanning a barcode, reading a
tag, or playing an audio file.
The StageNow Staging Solution includes the following components:
• The StageNow Workstation tool installs on the staging workstation (host computer) and lets the
administrator easily create staging profiles for configuring device components, and perform other
staging actions such as checking the condition of a target device to determine suitability for software
upgrades or other activities. The StageNow Workstation stores profiles and other created content for
later use.
• The StageNow Client resides on the device and provides a user interface for the staging operator to
initiate staging. The operator uses one or more of the desired staging methods (print and scan a
barcode, read an NFC tag or play an audio file) to deliver staging material to the device.
For more information go to: techdocs.zebra.com.
GMS Restricted
GMS Restricted mode deactivates Google Mobile Services (GMS). All GMS apps are disabled on the
device and communication with Google (analytics data collection and location services) is disabled.
Use StageNow to disable or enable GMS Restricted mode. After a device is in GMS Restricted mode,
enable and disable individual GMS apps and services using StageNow. To ensure GMS Restricted mode
persists after an Enterprise Reset, use the Persist Manager option in StageNow. For more information on
StageNow, refer to techdocs.zebra.com.

Display Best Practices

Image Retention
Image retention may occur when a static image continuously displays for extended periods of time. A user may
see a faint remnant of the image even after a new image displays. To prevent image retention:
• Set the display to turn off after a few minutes of idle time.
• Rotate background images on a periodic basis.
• Turn off the display when the device in not in use.
• Use a screen saver with the following characteristics:
• background color set to black
• use a small moving image (approximately 2% of the display size).
192
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
• move the image randomly across the screen

• screen saver should be active as long as the static image is used.

WARNING: Avoid exposing this product to contact with hot oil or other flammable liquids. If such exposure
occurs, unplug the device and clean the product immediately in accordance with these guidelines.
Cleaning and Disinfecting Guidelines

• Turn off and/or disconnect the device from AC/DC power.
193
• To avoid damage to the device or accessory, use only approved cleaning and disinfecting agents specified
for the device.
• Follow the manufacturer’s directions on the approved cleaning and disinfecting agent for how to use their
product properly and safely.
• Use pre-moistened wipes or dampen a soft sterile cloth (not wet) with the approved agent. Never spray or
pour chemical agents directly onto the device.
• Use a moistened cotton-tipped applicator to reach tight or inaccessible areas. Be sure to remove any lint
left over by the applicator.
• Do not allow liquid to pool.
• Allow the device to air dry before use, or dry with a soft lint-free cloth or towelette. Ensure electrical contacts
are fully dry before reapplying power
Approved Cleaning and Disinfectant Agents for TC57

100% of the active ingredients in any cleaner must consist of one or some combination of the following:
isopropyl alcohol, bleach/sodium hypochlorite1 (see important note below), or mild dish soap.
important: IMPORTANT: Use pre-moistened wipes and do not allow liquid cleaner to pool.
1When using sodium hypochlorite (bleach) based products always follow the manufacturer’s recommended instructions: use
gloves during application and remove the residue afterwards with a damp alcohol cloth or a cotton swab to avoid prolonged
skin contact while handling the device.
Due to the powerful oxidizing nature of sodium hypochlorite the metal surfaces on the device are prone to oxidation
(corrosion) when exposed to this chemical in the liquid form (including wipes). In the event that these type of disinfectants
come in contact with metal on the device, prompt removal with an alcohol-dampened cloth or cotton swab after the cleaning
step is critical.
Special Cleaning Notes

The device should not be handled while wearing vinyl gloves containing phthalates, or before hands are
washed to remove contaminant residue after gloves are removed.
If products containing any of the harmful ingredients listed above are used prior to handling the device, such as
hand sanitizer that contain ethanolamine, hands must be completely dry before handling the device to prevent
damage to the device.
IMPORTANT: If the battery connectors are exposed to cleaning agents, thoroughly wipe off as much of the
chemical as possible and clean with an alcohol wipe. It is also recommended to install the battery in the
terminal prior to cleaning and disinfecting the device to help minimize buildup on the connectors.
When using cleaning/disinfectant agents on the device, it is important to follow the directions prescribed by the
cleaning/disinfectant agent manufacturer.
Cleaning Frequency
The cleaning frequency is at the customer’s discretion due to the varied environments in which the mobile
devices are used and may be cleaned as frequently as required. When dirt is visible, it is recommended to
clean the mobile device to avoid build up of particles which make the device more difficult to clean later on.
For consistency and optimum image capture, it is recommended to clean the camera window periodically
especially when used in environments prone to dirt or dust.
194
Cleaning the Device

Housing
Thoroughly wipe the housing, including all buttons and triggers, using an approved alcohol wipe.
