Introduction 1 - 13
Non-Touch and Touch Screens
The MC17 and MC17A configurations do not have touch screens. All interactions are preformed using the
keypad. The MC17T and the MC17U configurations have touch screens. Interactions are performed either with
the keypad or by tapping on the screen.
Throughout this guide, the procedures are listed using the keypad for actions. On the MC17T and the MC17U
these same procedures can be completed by tapping the buttons or menus on the display whenever
supported.
Data Capture
The MC17 series uses a laser scanner to allow collection of data by scanning one dimensional bar codes.
The scanner has the following features:
•
Reads a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, and 1-D code types.
•
Contains advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
Scanning Considerations
Typically, scanning is a simple matter of aim, scan/decode and a few quick trial efforts master it. However, two
important considerations can be used to optimize any 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 mobile computer closer and further away to find the right working range for the bar
codes being scanned. However, the situation is complicated by the availability of various integrated
scanning modules. The best way to specify the appropriate working range per bar code density is through
a chart called a decode zone for each scan module. A decode zone simply plots working range as a
function of minimum element widths of bar code symbols.
•
Angle
Scanning angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the
scanner from the bar code, this specular 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.
Scanning Bar Codes
1. Ensure that a scan enabled application is loaded on the mobile computer.
2. Aim the scan exit window at the bar code.
3. Press the key.Scan
NOTE Contact the Motorola Solutions Global Customer Support if chronic scanning difficulties develop.
Decoding of properly printed bar codes should be quick and effortless.

1 - 14 MC17/MC17A/MC17T/MC17U Product Reference Guide
•
Ensure the red scan beam covers the entire bar code. The LED lights red to indicate that the laser is on.
The LED changes to green and audible beep might sound, if the application determines, to indicate the
bar code was decoded successfully.
Figure 1-19
Laser Scanner Aiming Pattern
4. Release the trigger.
Scanning Tips
Optimal scanning distance varies with bar code density and scanner optics.
•
Hold the scanner farther away for larger symbols.
•
Move the scanner closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
LED Indications
The LED on the mobile computer provides a visual indication of the scan status.
NOTE Scanning procedures depend on the application and mobile computer configuration. An application may
use different scanning procedures from the one listed above.

CHAPTER 2 STAGING AND PROVISIONING
Introduction
This chapter describes how to stage and provision the MC17 series mobile computers using Mobility Services
Platform (MSP) 3.X.
Staging
Staging is the process of setting up the mobile computer to download packages for provisioning. The mobile
computer uses the Rapid Deployment (RD) Client for staging.
The RD Client enables simple and rapid provisioning of new (out of the box) mobile computers and simplifies
the out-of-box provisioning by scanning bar codes or connecting to a profile server. The RD Client acts as a
frontend for wireless radio configuration and AirBEAM Smart components, automating the manual
configurations that would normally be required to use these tools.
An MSP Administrator uses the MSP Console for the creation of an RD profile that contains all the wireless
network and security information (for example, ESSID, WEP Keys, etc.) required to get a mobile computer
onto the wireless network. The profile also contains FTP server access information needed to connect to the
provisioning MSP and the list of software packages to be provisioned to the mobile computer from the
provisioning MSP. The RD profile can then be encoded into an RD bar code sheet and printed from the MSP
Console or loaded onto a profile server.
NOTE The MSP 3.0 Rapid Deployment Client enables staging by scanning staging profiles encoded into staging
bar code sheets. It also enables staging to be performed without scanning bar codes through the use of
On-Demand Staging.
When using On-Demand Staging, the RD Client pulls staging profiles directly from an On-Demand Profile
Server over some form of pre-configured or automatically-configured IP connection.
For detailed information about the MSP 3.X, refer to the .Mobility Services Platform 3.X User’s Guide

On-Demand Staging
The MSP 3.0 RD Client also enables staging without having to scan bar codes through the use of On-Demand
Staging (Electronic Staging).
When using On-Demand Staging, the RD Client pulls staging profiles directly from an On-Demand Profile
Server over some form of pre-configured or automatically-configured IP connection. The following types of IP
connection modes are currently supported for Electronic Staging:
ActiveSync Connection Mode
This mode uses the IP connection that is established when the mobile computer is directly connected (via a
USB cable, serial cable or cradle) to a host computer running ActiveSync. The most common scenario would
be where the On-Demand Profile Server is running on the host computer to which the mobile computer is
connected via ActiveSync. It would, however, also work with the On-Demand Profile Server running on any
other host computer that is on the same subnet as the host computer to which the mobile computer is
connected via ActiveSync.
Already existing IP Connection Mode
This mode uses any IP connection that is already active on the mobile computer. This could be a direct
Ethernet port (if available), or a WLAN connection that was configured and established before the RD Client
was launched. It could also be any other form of IP connection that might be available on the mobile computer.
The RD Client does not do anything to configure or establish such connections, but uses them if they exist. The
On-Demand Profile Server must be running on a host computer that is on the same subnet that is accessible
from the connection.
Well-known WLAN Connection Mode
This mode works only on supported Motorola WLAN adapters. The attempts to configure and RD Client
establish WLAN IP connections using pre-defined Motorola WLAN settings. If the is able to RD Client
successfully configure and establish such a connection, and if an On-Demand Profile Server is running on a
host computer that is on the same subnet that is accessible from the connection, then Electronic Staging
proceeds using that connection.
To perform On-Demand Staging:
1. In the App Launcher RD Client Scan Barcodes To menu, press the center function key to launch the . The
Deploy window displays.

CHAPTER 3 WIRELESS APPLICATIONS
Introduction
Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) allow the MC17 series mobile computers to communicate wirelessly
and send captured data to a host device in real time. The mobile computer supports the 802.11a, 802.11b and
802.11g standards. Before using the mobile computer on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required
hardware to run the wireless LAN and the mobile computer must be configured. Refer to the documentation
provided with the access points (APs) for instructions on setting up the hardware.
For all MC17 series devices, use the Fusion APIs in the Enterprise Mobility Developer’s Kit (EMDK) to
configure the radio in the mobile computer. Refer to the file for detailed information.EMDK Help
The MC17 series contain the Wireless Applications to allow configuration of the WLAN radio. On the
MC17T/MC17U, use the touch screen to access the Wireless Application. MC17 and MC17A devices
(non-touch screen) require the use of remote control software. See for Remote Control Software on page 5-1
more information.
802.11d Overview
IEEE 802.11d, is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 specification that adds support for additional regulatory
domains. This includes additional country information to beacons, probe requests, and probe responses. The
country information simplifies the creation of 802.11 wireless access points (APs) and clients that meet the
different regulations enforced in various parts of the world.
Fusion fully supports 802.11d for Regulatory purposes. By using 802.11d, the MC17 series can easily connect
to a wireless network and use only the valid channels for the country specified in the AP's beacons. By default,
the MC17 series software enables 802.11d mode to determine regulatory requirements.
Configuring My Country for Use with WLAN on an MC17 Series
Configuration can be done on:
•
an enabled 802.11d network
•
a disabled 802.11d network.
