Restriction On Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
2002/95/EC
What is RoHS?
The European Union has mandated that high environmental standards be met in the
design and manufacture of electronic and electrical products sold in Europe, to reduce
hazardous substances from entering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous
Substances Directive (RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants PBB and PBDE that
may be contained in a product. Only products meeting these high environmental
standards may be “placed on the market” in EU member states after July 1, 2006.
RoHS Logo
Although there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliant products, Psion
Teklogix Inc. indicates its compliance with the directive as follows:
The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or underneath the battery in
the battery compartment (or on a related accessory such as the charger or docking
station) signifies that the product is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other
than as noted below, a Psion Teklogix product that does not have an accompanying
RoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior to July 1, 2006, and is
thereby exempt from the directive.
Note:
Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo due to physical
space limitations or as a result of their exempt status.
Disclaimer
Every effort has been made to make this material complete, accurate, and up-todate. In addition, changes are periodically added to the information herein; these
changes will be incorporated into new editions of the publication.
Psion Teklogix Inc. reserves the right to make improvements and/or changes in the
product(s) and/or the program(s) described in this document without notice, and
shall not be responsible for any damages, including but not limited to consequential
damages, caused by reliance on the material presented, including but not limited to

Preparing The 7530 G2 For Operation
2.1 Preparing The 7530 G2 For Operation
Typically, 7530 G2 hand-helds are configured at the factory and arrive ready for use.
Although these hand-helds are equipped with an internal Compact Flash and SD I/O
slot, these slots are not intended for user modification. If a device needs to be
changed or added in these slots, contact qualified Psion Teklogix personnel. Refer to
Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices for service information.
2.1.1 Equipment You Need To Get Started
You’ll need:
• A compatible battery charger, docking station or portable docking module
(PDM) with power supply.
• An operating wireless network (if you are not operating the equipment in
batch mode).
• A #2 Phillips head screwdriver (if you need to attach a carrying strap or
pistol grip handle).
2.1.2 Charging The Battery
Important:
The 7530 G2 uses a high capacity Lithium-Ion battery. It is critical that you review the battery safety guidelines in “Lithium-Ion
Battery Safety Precautions” on page XII before charging
the battery.
Batteries shipped from the factory are not charged. They must be fully charged prior
to use. Full capacity may not be reached until at least 5 full charge/discharge cycles
have been performed.
Batteries can be charged using a gang charger or the unit’s internal charger. When
using the internal charger, a suitable power source is required. All chargers and
docking stations are described in Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
beginning on page 213.
Note:
The 7530 G2 Battery Properties dialog box may indicate an incorrect battery capacity until the new battery has been fully charged.
It may take several charge/discharge cycles for the battery capacity
gauge to register capacity with the full 95% accuracy.

Chapter 2: Basic Checkout
Installing The Battery
2.1.3 Installing The Battery
•
Slide the charged battery with the contoured plastic facing you into the unit.
Click the battery into place.
Keep in mind that if you are using a docking station, you can insert an uncharged
battery in the hand-held, dock the unit and switch it on. If you are using a PDM, you
can configure your unit without a battery, with a charged battery or with an
uncharged battery.
Important:
Accidental removal and insertion of the battery during operation
may result in the 7530 G2 not booting up normally. Should this
occur, remove the battery and allow the internal backup power
supply to deplete – approximately 15 minutes. Unsaved data may
be lost.
2.1.4 Switching On The Hand-Held
To switch the unit on:
• Press and hold down the [ENTER/ON] key for at least one second.
• When all four LEDs flash yellow, release the [ENTER/ON] button.
A splash screen of the Psion Teklogix logo and the Windows CE logo appears.
When Windows CE has successfully loaded, the startup desktop is displayed.
Note:
14
The screen may go blank for a few seconds after the splash screen loading
bar reaches the end. This is part of the normal Windows CE cold boot
process. The desktop is displayed after a few moments.

Chapter 2: Basic Checkout
Attaching Carrying Accessories
2.1.5 Attaching Carrying Accessories
Psion Teklogix recommends that a carrying accessory – a handstrap, pistol grip or
shoulder strap – be installed on the 7530 G2 before use. If your hand-held is not
fitted with a handstrap or pistol grip, you can install either using the carrying
accessory kit supplied. You’ll need:
• A Phillips head screwdriver.
Important:
2.1.5.1
Do not use adhesives such as Loctite to secure screws on carrying
accessories. These chemicals may damage the plastic casing.
Attaching The Handstrap
Two Phillips head screws are provided with the handstrap.
• Attach the strap to the two threaded inserts located at the back of the
7530 G2 near the top of the unit.
• Stretch the handstrap toward the base of the 7530 G2, and hook the bottom
of the handstrap into the slot near the base of the battery pack.

Attaching The Pistol Grip
2.1.5.2
Note:
Attaching The Pistol Grip
A Phillips head screwdriver is required.
The pistol grip is attached to the back of the 7530 G2 using the four threaded inserts
in the upper part of the 7530 G2 casing. Four black #4-40 Phillips head screws are
provided with this accessory.
Note:
Prior to installation, make sure the trigger mechanism is securely
snapped into the pistol grip body and that the trigger operates properly.
•
Position the pistol grip so that it fits snugly over the back of the unit and
the inserts on the back of the hand-held are aligned with the holes in the
pistol grip.

Network name (SSID):
• Type the appropriate SSID (Service Set Identifier) in the Network name
(SSID) text box at the top of this dialog box.
The Network name field can contain a maximum of 32 characters. The
name assigned here is listed as a preferred network.
Important:
Keep in mind that the 7530 G2 will only communicate with access
points that are configured with the same SSID.
Ad Hoc And Infrastructure:
If you are using an Infrastructure network – one in which 7530 G2s must
pass data through an access point – leave the checkbox next to This is an
ad hoc network blank.
If you are using an Ad Hoc network – a network in which 7530 G2s pass
data directly to other 7530 G2s without an access point – add a checkmark
in the checkbox next to This is an ad hoc network to enable Ad Hoc.
Encryption
WEP (Wired-Equivalent Privacy) encryption prevents others from accidentally accessing your network. If you are not using encryption, you can
choose Disabled from the dropdown encryption menu. Otherwise, leave
this field as is.

Chapter 2: Basic Checkout
Configuring An IEEE 802.11 Radio In The Unit
Note:
WEP cannot be disabled if you are using WPA or WPA-PSK authentication.
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) is an encryption protocol included
as part of the IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless LANs. Designed to
enhance WEP, TKIP uses the original WEP encryption but ‘wraps’ additional code at the beginning and end to encapsulate and modify it, encrypting each data packet with a unique encryption key.
Authentication
802.11 supports four subtypes of network authentication services: Open,
Shared, WPA, and WPA-PSK. Under Open authentication, any wireless
station can request authentication. The station that needs to authenticate
with another wireless station sends an authentication management frame
that contains the identity of the sending station. The receiving station then
sends back a frame that indicates whether it recognizes the identity of the
sending station.
Under Shared authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have
received a secret shared key over a secure channel that is independent from
the 802.11 wireless network communications channel.
Under WPA and WPA-PSK authentication, the use of 802.1x authentication
is required. For wireless networks without a Remote Authentication Dial-In
User Service (RADIUS) infrastructure, WPA supports the use of a preshared key. For wireless networks with a RADIUS infrastructure, Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and RADIUS is supported.
Network Key:
This text box is used to specify a 5 or 13 ASCII character sequence or an
equivalent 10 or 26 Hexadecimal digit sequence that matches the active
WEP key on the access point.

Enable 802.1x authentication:
802.1X is the IEEE standard that offers additional security for local area
networks. It provides authentication for user devices attached to an Ethernet
network, whether wired or wireless. A security protocol packet such as TLS
or MD5 encapsulated in an EAP is used in conjunction with the 802.1X
standard to authenticate users at the MAC layer. Available EAPs are listed
in the dropdown menu next to the EAP option.
• To activate 802.1X, highlight 802.1x authentication, and check
the checkbox.
EAP Type (Extensible Authentication Protocol):
This dropdown menu lists the EAP types available on your system. The
items in this dropdown menu will vary depending on your network setup.
Keep in mind also that some authentication protocols require that you select
a Certificate. By selecting the Properties button, you will be able to select a
Certificate. “Certificate Assignment” on page 113 provides a website that
outlines how to create certificates for your network.

32
Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
The Keyboard
•
6-Unit Gang Charger (Model #HU3006) – charges up to six Lithium-Ion
batteries at one time.
• Portable Docking Module (Model #HU4001 or HU1005 and HU3220) –
charges the 7530 G2 battery (with the battery installed in the unit).
• Combo Charger (Model #HU3002) – a desktop charger that charges the
internal battery along with a spare battery pack.
• Combo Docking Station (Model #HU4002) – operates as both a charger
and a docking station. Operating as a charger, both the battery installed in
the computer and a spare battery can be charged simultaneously.
• Quad Docking Station (Model #HU4004) – can charge the battery of up to
four hand-helds inserted in the docking station while transferring data
through an Ethernet connection.
• Powered Cradle (Model # CV1010 and CV1030) – can charge the 7530 G2
with the battery installed in the hand-held.
It can take from 1.5 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The unit’s intelligent charging
system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge process
when the battery is at maximum capacity.
Note:
Refer to “Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time” on page 53
for additional information about the battery.
Important:
To avoid damaging the battery, chargers will not begin the charge
process until the battery temperature is between 0° C (32° F) and
39° C (102° F). If the battery is too hot or cold, the battery status
LED flashes yellow and the charge is suspended. Refer to
Table 3.1, “Charge LEDs” on page 44 for details.
3.3 The Keyboard
The 7530 G2 offers two types of keyboard layouts – a 63-key and a 37-key
keyboard. Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop
computer. Where a key or key function is not consistent with the PC keyboard, the
differences are noted.
The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and
system functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above
the keyboard keys.
Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
Modifier Keys
3.3.1 Modifier Keys
The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [BLUE] and [ORANGE] keys are modifier keys.
Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example,
on a 63-key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the [4] key.
Pressing the [ORANGE] key followed by the [4] key displays a square bracket
rather than the number 4.
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except
that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key
must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
3.3.1.1
Activating Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is not locked ‘on’, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the
taskbar at the bottom of the hand-held screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is
pressed, ctrl key is displayed at the bottom of the unit screen in lowercase letters.
When the next key is pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and is cleared from
the taskbar.
3.3.1.2
Locking Modifier Keys
Note:
The locking function of the modifier keys can be set up so that pressing
one of these keys once will lock the key ‘on’. They can also be set up so
that they must be pressed twice to be locked ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One
Shot Modes” on page 93 for details.
When a modifier key is ‘locked’ on, it is displayed in uppercase letters in the
taskbar. For example, if the [BLUE] key is locked on – it is displayed as BLUE KEY in
the taskbar at the bottom of the screen.
The locked modifier key will remain active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn
it off. Once a modifier key is unlocked, the uppercase representation in the taskbar
is cleared.
3.3.2 The Keys
The [SHIFT] Key
The [SHIFT] key is used to display uppercase alpha characters and provide access to
the symbols above the numeric keys.

The Keys
The Arrow Keys
The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow –
up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that
indicates where the next character you type will appear.
The [BKSP/DEL] Key
The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor
one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.
The [DEL] key ([BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor position.
The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key
The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are
application dependent.
The [TAB] Key
Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or
downward.
The [ESC] Key
Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog
box or activity and return to the previous one.
The [SPACE] Key
Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog
box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.
The [SCAN] Key
Pressing the [SCAN] key – the yellow key with the star-burst scan symbol on it –
activates the scanner beam while pressed. For units that do not have internal
scanners, this key can be remapped for another use.

Alphanumeric Keyboard – 63-Key
3.3.4 Alphanumeric Keyboard – 63-Key
On 63-key, alphanumeric keyboards, all alphabetic and numeric keys are directly
accessible from the keyboard; a key combination is not required.
Function keys [F1] through [F24] can be used with the CE operating system or
another application. The additional function keys, [F25] through [F30] along with
the macro keys, are not used as part of the Windows CE operating system.
All function keys and macro keys can be custom defined for each application. The
TekTerm application utilizes these keys (for detailed information, see the TekTerm
Software User Manual, PN 8000073). Refer to “Function And Macro Keys” on
page 36 for details about accessing function keys [F25] to [F30].
3.3.5 Numeric Keyboard – 37-Key
On 37-key 7530 G2s, all alpha characters are printed on the unit plastic in orange
typeface above the numeric keys. To access an alpha character, you must first press
the [ORANGE] key and then press the numeric key above which the alpha character
you want to type is printed.
Because the alpha keys on these keyboards are laid out much like the letters on a
telephone – generally in groups of three letters per numeric key – you need to take a
few extra steps to access the alphabetic characters. The examples in this section help
illustrate how to access alpha characters.

Choosing More Than One Alpha Character From The Same Key
If you need to choose more than one alpha character from a single key, you’ll need
to press the ‘Accept’ key between alpha selections. The ‘Accept’ key is presented as
an arrow [⇒] symbol above the [0] (zero) key. Pressing this key signals the 7530 G2
to display the alpha character you’ve chosen and await the next selection from the
same key.
Note:
Remember that as you choose alpha keys, each is displayed in the
left-hand corner of the taskbar to make it easier to determine which letter
is currently chosen.
For example, suppose you want to type the letters ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’. These letters are
all accessible from the numeric key, [2].
To type the letter ‘a’:
• Lock the [ORANGE] key ‘on’, and then press the numeric key, [2].
• Press the ‘Accept’ key [⇒] (zero key) to indicate that the letter ‘a’ should

The Display
3.4 The Display
7530 G2s are equipped with display backlighting to improve character visibility in
low light conditions. The backlight switches on when a key is pressed and the
ambient light is below the set threshold. A light sensor on the front of the hand-held
determines the ambient light level. On some displays, the contrast can also be
adjusted to further improve character visibility.
3.4.1 Adjusting The Display Backlight
The behaviour of the display backlight can be specified in the Display Properties
dialog box in the Control Panel.
Note:
Refer to “Display Backlight” on page 88 for details about the Display
Properties dialog box.
3.4.2 Adjusting The Contrast
Note:
In addition to the manual adjustments described in this section, the display contrast can also be adjusted using the Control Panel. Refer to “Display Contrast” on page 87 for details about this dialog box.
The display contrast can be adjusted from the unit keyboard using the [BLUE] key
and function keys [F1] and [F2]. Pressing [F1]
darkens the display, and
pressing [F2]
lightens the display. Keep in mind that adjusting the contrast on a
colour display is much less pronounced than on a monochrome display.
To adjust the display contrast:
• Lock the [BLUE] key on, and then press [F1] to darken the display or [F2]
to lighten the display.
• Once you’ve successfully adjusted the display contrast, remember to press
the [BLUE] key again to unlock or turn it ‘off’.
Note:
Contrast settings are optimized for the maximum readability. However, if
the display jitters or flickers, consider adjusting the contrast at power up.
3.4.3 Calibrating The Touchscreen
If your 7530 G2 touchscreen has never been calibrated, or if you find that the stylus
pointer is not accurate when you tap on an item, use the Stylus Properties dialog
box in the Control Panel to recalibrate the screen.

3.6 Internal Scanners
Important:
For detailed scanner specifications and decode zone tables, refer
to “Internal Scanner Specifications” beginning on page 240.
7530 G2s support a wide range of scanner options to address a variety of user application requirements. The scanner installed in your unit can be configured using the
Scanner Settings dialog box in the Control Panel (see page 143) and the Manage
Triggers application (see page page 109). External, non-decoded scanners are also
configured through the Control Panel.
However, external decoded scanners must be configured by scanning special configuration bar codes. In these cases, the scanner manufacturer provides programming
manuals for configuration purposes.
• For Symbol decoded scanners, refer to the LS3408 programming guide.
•
For PowerScan (PSC) decoded scanners, refer to the Powerscan Programing
Guide (PSC).
Scanner types include:
• Advanced Long Range: reads very large 1D bar codes (60 mil+) at very
long distances (up to 14m).
• Long Range: reads large 1D bar codes (55 mil) at long distances (up to 3m).
• High Performance: reads1D linear bar codes (5 - 55 mil) at medium distances (up to 1m).
• Extended Range: reads regular 1D bar codes (5 - 55mil) at short to medium
distances (1m), as well as large 1D bar codes (e.g. 55 mil) at long distances.

Scanning Techniques
•
RFID: The RD7950 UHF RFID Reader is an EPC-compliant RFID reader
which can be integrated with laser bar code scanning or imaging (for
future release).
• Fuzzy Logic: reads damaged or low contrast regular 1D bar codes
(5 - 55mil) at medium distances (up to 1m).
• PDF Raster Laser: reads 2D PDF bar codes or regular 1D bar codes at short
to medium distances.
• 2D Imager: reads regular 1D and all 2D bar codes at short to medium distances.
• 1D Imager: reads regular 1D and PDF417 bar codes at short to
medium distances.
It is critical that you review the warnings listed under “Warning to Users” beginning
on page XI (at the beginning of this manual) before using any of the scanners
described in this chapter. “Scanning Techniques” outlines the mechanics of a
successful scan. In addition, review “Scan LED Indicators” on page 50 to better
understand how to interpret whether or not a bar code has been successfully scanned.
Finally, “Troubleshooting” on page 50 provides some helpful suggestions should the
scan fail.
3.6.1 Scanning Techniques
Note:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The scanning techniques described here apply to internal and
external scanners.
Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the bar code.
Do not hold the scanner directly over the bar code. In this position, light
can reflect back into the scanner’s exit window and prevent a successful
decode.
Scan the entire bar code. If you are using a 1D or 2D scanner, make certain
that the scan beam crosses every bar and space on the bar code, including
the margins on either end of the symbol.
If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red, oval-shaped
framing mark is centered within the bar code you want to scan.
When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while decoding the
bar code. Movement blurs the image.
Hold the scanner farther away for larger bar codes.
Hold the scanner closer for bar codes with bars that are close together.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
Scan LED Indicators
3.6.2 Scan LED Indicators
The scanner LED (the lower-left LED) indicates whether or not your scan is
successful. The LED behaves as follows:
• Scan In Progress: scan LED displays solid red colour.
• Successful Scan: scan LED displays solid green colour and turns off when
the scan is ended.
• Unsuccessful scan: scan LED flashes red.
A bar code icon appears on the screen during a scan. While the scanner beam
is active, the onscreen message states – SCANNING. If the scan is successful,
the bar code data is displayed on the screen until the scan button (or pistol trigger)
is released.
3.6.3 Troubleshooting
If the scanner is not working, investigate the following:
• Is the unit on?
• Check that the bar code symbology being scanned is enabled for the
hand-held you are using. Check any other parameters that affect the scanning procedure or the bar code.
• Check the bar code to make sure it is not damaged. Try scanning a different
bar code to verify that the problem is not with the bar code.
• Check that the bar code is within the proper range.
• Does the hand-held display the warning without scanning? This suggests a
hardware problem in the hand-held.
• Is the laser beam scanning across the bar code?
• Once the scan beam has stopped, check the scanner window for
dirt or fogging.
3.6.4 Operating One Dimensional (1D) Internal Laser Scanners
• Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
Important: If an aiming dot is available on the installed scanner, the dot will
be enabled for a configurable time period (including off), after
which normal scanning begins. Refer to “Dot Time (msec)” on
page 146 for details.

Operating Internal PDF Laser Scanners
•
Double-clicking the trigger will override the aiming delay and
initiate an immediate scan. Note that the aiming dot is standard
on long-range and high visibility internal scanners.
Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a
warning indicator appear until a successful decode is achieved or six
seconds have elapsed.
3.6.5 Operating Internal PDF Laser Scanners
This scanner decodes PDF417 two-dimensional bar codes.
• Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger. The beam expands
into a rectangle covering the bar code to properly scan it. The scan beam
and a warning indicator are visible until a successful decode is achieved or
three seconds have elapsed.
3.6.6 Operating Internal Two Dimensional (2D) Imager Scanners
An imager scanner takes a snap shot of a single bar code or multiple bar codes (at
one time). It can find a bar code regardless of its orientation – that is, even a bar
code printed at a 45 degree angle to the hand-held will be decoded successfully.
Note:
When scanning multiple bar codes, ensure that all of the desired bar
codes are within the field of view of the scanner. It is possible that even
when all bar codes are within the field of view, not all of them will be
decoded. Only successfully decoded bar codes are passed to the application program. The application program then issues a warning, asking that
you scan the missing bar codes.
When scanning a single bar code, ensure that only the desired bar code is
within the field of view of the scanner.
Because imager scanners generally have a shorter depth of field than laser scanners,
some practise may be required to find the optimal distance from the types of bar
codes being scanned. Although the imager includes illumination LEDs, ambient
light will help the imager decode the bar codes, especially if the bar code is far from
the hand-held.
Important:
Keep in mind that the imager scanner is a camera, and the LED
illumination is a flash. Glare can be an issue on reflective media
such as plastic coated bar codes, just as glare is an issue for phoPsion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual
51
Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals
tographers. When pointing at a shiny surface, either shift the bar
code to the side or top, or angle the bar code so that the glare
reflects away from the imager scanner.
Most imagers take several ‘snap shots’ of the bar code in order to
decode it. It is normal for the LEDs to flash two or three times. Hold
the unit steady between flashes to improve decode performance.
• Turn the hand-held computer on. Wait until the unit has booted
up completely.
• Aim at the bar code and press the scan key or the trigger.
• When the scan button or trigger is pressed, a red, oval shaped light (the
framing marker) is displayed. Centre the framing marker in the field –
either in the centre of the bar code you want to scan or in the centre of the
area in which multiple bar codes are to be scanned. Hold the scan trigger or
button until a successful or failed scan result is obtained.
Illumination LEDs flashes (typically several times) and a picture of the bar code(s)
is taken.
3.7 Connecting & Disconnecting Tethered Peripherals
Tethered peripherals such as scanners and printers connect to the hand-held
computer with a quick release, circular connector. When a peripheral is connected to
the hand-held, the unit detects the peripheral and loads the necessary drivers for it.
An icon in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen provides a visual representation of
the peripheral and indicates that it is ready for operation.
To attach the peripheral to the round, tether port on the side of the unit:
• Insert the barrel of the plug into the tether port and rotate slowly until
it clicks into place. The red dot on the port and on the connector should
be aligned.

Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time
Tether Shell
To remove the peripheral:
• Grasp the shell of the plug, and pull it back gently to unlock and release the
connector.
Important: Never attempt to disconnect a peripheral by pulling the cable by
the wire. The connector is locked into place and can only be
unlocked and removed by pulling back the plug shell.
3.8 Monitoring The Battery And Maximizing Run Time
Under normal operating conditions, fully charged batteries last for 9 hours. As
Lithium-Ion batteries age, their capacity decreases gradually, and they are generally
considered depleted after approximately 2 years of use (less than 60% of original
capacity remaining). Keep in mind however that heavy usage or operating the 7530
G2 at temperature extremes will shorten the battery life.
Lithium-Ion batteries do not require conditioning cycles and the 7530 G2 battery system
(including chargers) requires no user interaction to maintain peak performance.
To maximize the run time of your batteries, consider the following:
• The display backlight is the largest drain on the battery. Try to keep its
brightness as low as possible.
• Depending on the ambient light at your site, consider turning off the
keypad backlight.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
Storing Batteries
•
•
•
•
The hand-held is ‘event’ driven – that is, when the unit is not in use, it
reverts to sleep mode (even when it appears to be running), saving battery
power. Events include a key press, touchscreen taps and scan triggers.
Power consumption is reduced if you avoid unnecessary events, and allow
the unit to sleep as much as possible.
The hand-held battery is a ‘smart battery’ with built-in intelligence. The
taskbar battery icon is a linear gauge used to estimate the remaining run
time of the battery. It is important to note that the battery capacity icon displays quarter percentages of nominal capacity (the capacity of a new battery). An aged battery, even when fully charged, shows somewhat less
capacity than nominal.
Double-tapping on the battery icon displays a dialog box that provides
detailed information about the battery status and performance. If the
remaining capacity indication seems inaccurate, the battery may need recalibration. Recalibration requires that the battery be fully charged, discharged
and then charged again before use. If the battery is fully discharged and
charged on a regular basis, recalibration should not be necessary.
When the hand-held is switched off, it goes into a low-power, suspend state
but continues to draw a small amount of power from the battery. This
should not be an issue unless the unit is left in suspend state for more than a
week – in this case, the battery should be removed.
Batteries left unused for durations of more than one or two months should
be fully charged, discharged (operated in the hand held until the low battery
warning appears), and then charged again before use. This recalibrates the
gas gauge and allows the internal electronics to determine the actual capacity of the battery.
3.8.1 Storing Batteries
Long term battery storage is not recommended. If storage is necessary:
• Always try to use a ‘first-in first-out’ approach to minimize storage time.
• Lithium-Ion batteries age much faster at elevated temperatures. Store batteries at temperatures between 0° C and 20°C.
• Always charge batteries to 40 to 60% before storing them. Batteries can be
damaged by an over-discharge phenomenon that occurs when an empty
battery is stored for a long period of time such that the cell voltage drops
below a lower limit.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
Monitoring The Network Connection
•
•
To minimize storage degradation, recharge stored batteries to 40 to 60%
every 4 or 6 months to prevent over-discharge damage.
A ‘never used’ Li-Ion battery that has been stored for 3 years may have
limited or no useful life remaining once put into service. Think of batteries
as perishable goods.
3.9 Monitoring The Network Connection
If your hand-held is equipped with a wireless LAN radio, it will typically associate
with the nearest access point. The radio signal quality meter in the taskbar indicates
the relative strength of the communication link.
• Tap on the Radio icon in the taskbar to display the Wireless Statistics
dialog box.
To access the radio signal icon using the keyboard:
• Press [BLUE] [0] to display the Start Menu.
• Highlight Shortcuts and then choose System Tray from the sub-menu.
• Use the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] arrow keys to highlight the radio signal icon
in the taskbar.
• Press [ENTER] to display the Wireless Statistics dialog box.
Note:
Moving in and out of the radio coverage area can have varying effects on
a network session. At times, you may need to renew your connection by
logging in again.
3.10 Uploading Data In A Docking Station
The Combo Docking and Quad Docking peripherals allow your hand-held to link to
an Ethernet network. They are typically used to upload transaction data to a server
computer when a radio link is not available. When a 7530 G2 is properly inserted in
a docking station, a dock icon is displayed in the taskbar at the bottom of the unit
screen. The hand-held also detects the presence of the Ethernet network. Review the
documentation provided with the user application installed in your 7530 G2 before
preforming data uploads.

Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7530 G2
General Maintenance
3.11 General Maintenance
3.11.1 Caring For The Touchscreen
The touchscreen is covered with a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a
conductive coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged
by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp
objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal
conductive coating.
The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:
• mustard, ketchup
• sodium hydroxide,
• concentrated caustic solutions,
• benzyl alcohol, and
• concentrated acids.
If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable
screen protector (PN HU6110). These covers reduce the clarity of the display
slightly but will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they
become scratched and abraded, they are easily removed and replaced.
3.11.2 Cleaning The 7530 G2
Important:
•
•
•
56
Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild
detergent to wipe the unit clean.
Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals for cleaning. The
7530 G2 has a plastic case that is susceptible to harsh chemicals. The plastic
is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly
decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.
To clean ink marks from the keypad and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.

Chapter 4: Working With Windows CE
Navigating In Windows CE And Applications
4.1 Navigating In Windows CE And Applications
Graphic user interfaces like Windows CE for portable devices and desktop
Windows (2000, XP, etc.) utilize ‘point and click’ navigation. An equivalent
keyboard shortcut is also available for every ‘point and click’ action.
Windows CE supports the same ‘point and click’ user interface and keyboard
shortcuts as desktop Windows with one difference – the ‘point and click’ action is
accomplished using a touchscreen rather than a mouse. Actions can be performed
using any combination of keyboard shortcuts or touchscreen tapping.
Note: The security level must be set to ‘Supervisor’ in order to access many of
the items discussed in this section.
4.1.1 Navigating Using A Touchscreen And Stylus
Note:
If the touchscreen is not registering your screen taps accurately, the
touchscreen may need recalibration. Refer to “Calibrating The Touchscreen” on page 41.
A touchscreen is standard for all 7530 G2s. Each unit is equipped with a stylus – a
pointing tool that looks like a pen – stored in a slot at the top of the unit. The stylus
is used to select objects on the touchscreen.
Note: To prevent damage to the touchscreen, use only the stylus (pen)
supplied with your 7530 G2.
To choose an icon, open a file, launch an applet or open a folder:
• Double-tap the stylus on the appropriate icon.
4.1.2 Navigating Using The Keyboard
If the touchscreen on your is disabled, you’ll need to use the keyboard to choose
icons and navigate dialog boxes, display the desktop, and so on.
Note:
Keep in mind that if your 7530 G2 has already been fully configured and
your application is automatically launched at startup, you will have little
need for keyboard navigation.

Scancode Remapping
A scancode is a number that is associated with a physical key on a keyboard. Every
key has a unique scancode that is mapped to a virtual key, a function or a macro.
Scancode Remapping allows you to change the functionality of any key on the
keyboard. A key can be remapped to send a virtual key (e.g. VK_F represents the
‘F’ key; VK_RETURN represents the [ENTER/ON] key, etc.), perform a function
(e.g. turn the scanner on, change volume/contrast, etc.) or run a macro.
There are three different tables of scancode mappings: the Normal table, the Blue
table and the Orange table. The Normal table defines unmodified key presses; the
Blue table defines key presses that occur when the [BLUE] modifier is on; the
Orange table defines key presses that occur when the [ORANGE] modifier is on.
The default mappings of these scancodes can be overwritten for each of these three
tables using the Scancode Remapping tab accessed from the Keyboard Properties
dialog box.
Figure 5.7 Scancode Remapping
The first column in the Scancode Remapping tab displays the scancodes in
hexadecimal. If the scancode is remapped to a virtual key, that virtual key is
displayed in the next column labelled ‘V-Key’. A virtual key that is ‘Shifted’ or
‘Unshifted’ is displayed in the third column labelled ‘Function’.
If the scancode is remapped to a function or a macro, the first and second columns
remain blank while the third column contains the function name or macro key
number (e.g., Macro 2).

The radio buttons at the bottom of the dialog box allow you to define to what the
scan code will be remapped: Virtual Key, Function or Macro.
When Virtual Key is selected, you can choose to force [SHIFT] to be on or off when
the virtual key is sent. If No Force is selected, the shift state is dependent on whether
the shift state is on or off at the time the virtual key is sent.
When Function is selected, a list of valid functions appears in the dialog box.

Switch State To Suspend
Important:
Psion Teklogix recommends setting the Suspend value to 10 minutes. Setting ‘Switch State To Suspend’ to ‘Never’ will adversely
affect the battery run time.
To further reduce power consumption, carefully consider the
duration of time that the display backlight is ‘on’ (see “Display
Backlight” on page 88).
When the 7530 G2 is idle – not receiving any user input (a key touch, a scan, and so
on) or system activity (serial data, an activity initiated by an application, and so on),
the value chosen in the Suspend Timeout dropdown menu determines when the unit
will go to suspend state (appear to be off).
When the time in the Suspend Timeout field elapses without any activity, the unit
enters Suspend state. In Suspend state, the 7530 G2 CPU enters a sleep state, and the
radio is shut off. The state of the device (RAM contents) is preserved. Pressing
[ENTER] wakes the system from suspend state. When the 7530 G2 is in suspend
state, the network connection is broken immediately; you must re-establish the
network connection.

Suspend Threshold
The Suspend Threshold adjustment tells the system when to shut down when the
battery drains. If you choose Maximum Operating Time, the unit will run until the
battery is completely empty; the RAM is only backed up for a short period of time.
If you choose Maximum Backup Time, the hand-held shuts off with more energy left
in the battery so RAM can be backed up for a longer period of time.
Important:
104
Selecting Maximum backup time will reserve approximately 20%
of the battery capacity for memory backup. Once the battery drains
the system, RAM memory is lost and the unit must cold boot.
In most real-time transaction environments this is not a problem
(it only takes a few seconds to cold boot). Batch transaction environments, where data is not saved to a non-volatile memory (such
as an SD FLASH card), may need to pay particular attention to
this parameter. Psion Teklogix does not recommend the storage of
any valuable data in system RAM.
The 7530 G2 normal Windows CE environment does not store
any critical data in RAM (such as the registry or file system).
If the user's application does not save data to RAM,
Psion Teklogix recommends keeping the Suspend Threshold
setting as low as possible to maximize battery run time.

Trigger Mappings
A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a
driver or application, the “owner(s)” of the trigger source. When the specified key is
pressed, the owner (for example, a decoded scanner) is sent a message.
Important:
It is not possible to have two or more identical mappings—for
example [F1] cannot be mapped to the Non-Decoded Scanner
twice—even if the trigger type is different.
A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer generate key data or perform its normal function. For example, if the
space button is used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send
space characters to applications.
Double-Click
When a key is pressed and released, then pressed again within the configured time
(between 0 to 1000 milliseconds), a double-click occurs. See also “Trigger Type” on
page 112.
Show All
By default, the trigger mapping list only shows active mappings. Mappings for

Notes: It is possible to map the same source to different owners—for example,
[F1] can be mapped to both the Imager and Non-Decoded Scanner. If so,
both devices/operations will occur simultaneously. This is not recommended in most cases, especially with devices such as Imagers or RFID
Readers.
It is also possible to map different sources to the same owner—for example, [F2] and [F3] can both be mapped to the RFID File System.

Trigger Type
You can enable either an Up/Down or Double Click response to a trigger press.
Normally, when a trigger (keyboard key, etc.) is pressed and released, a “trigger
down” event is sent to the “owner”—that is, the application receiving the trigger
press information—followed by a “trigger up”. If Double Click is chosen in this
menu, when the trigger is pressed, released, and then pressed again, a “double-click”
event will occur. If a mapping with the type Up/down has also been configured for
the same source, it will only receive the first set of trigger events.

Bluetooth Setup
5.7 Bluetooth Setup
Bluetooth is a global standard for wireless connectivity for digital devices and is
intended for Personal Area Networks (PAN). The technology is based on a
short-range radio link that operates in the ISM band at 2.4 GHz. When two
Bluetooth-equipped devices come within a 5 meter range of each other, they can
establish a connection. Because Bluetooth utilizes a radio-based link, it does not
require a line-of-sight connection in order to communicate.
Note:
•
The Bluetooth radio uses an internal antenna.
In the Control Panel, tap on the Bluetooth Devices icon to display the
Bluetooth Control dialog box.

metres of the hand-held before proceeding with the discovery process
described below.
Tap on the Scan button to list available devices.
Wait for the 7530 G2 to complete its scan (approximately 20 seconds). When
scanning starts, the Scan button will change to Stop – if necessary, you can
tap on this button to stop the process. Once scanning is complete, all discovered
devices will be displayed in the list box, with Name, Address, Active status,
and PIN information.

Chapter 5: Configuration
The Devices Tab
Note:
During the scanning process, addresses are located first, followed by
names. Only the names of devices that are within the Bluetooth radio coverage range will be retrieved.
The Active column indicates whether any service is activated for that device. When
a service is activated, the device is displayed in the list even when it is not detected
during the scan.
The PIN column indicates whether you have a PIN (password) set for the device.
At this point you can either query for services or set the PIN for each device. Once
you highlight a device in the list box, both the Services and Set PIN buttons
become available.
Services
A discovered device may display several service profiles that it can use to
communicate, and you will want to activate the type you need. Supported profiles
that can be activated include: DUN (Dial-Up Networking service), Printer (serial
service), and LANPPP (LANAccessUsingPPP service). ASync (ActiveSync) is
another available profile.
• To start the service scan, highlight a device in the Devices tab list, and then
click on the Services button or double-click on the device entry.
Note:
If the remote device is out of reach or turned off, it can take a considerable amount of time for the Services dialog box to appear – it may appear
to be frozen.
Once the device’s service profiles are displayed in the Services list box:
• Highlight the service to be activated.
• Press [SPACE] or right-click to display the Activation menu.
The Activation menu contains four options – Activate, Authenticate, Outgoing and
Encrypt.
Once the service is successfully activated, the assigned port (if applicable) will
appear in the Port column of the Services list box. You can choose to use BSP or
COM as the port name. BSP is the latest Microsoft Bluetooth stack standard, but
older applications assume serial ports are COM. When using COM as the port name,
the Bluetooth manager will try to find and use a free port between COM7 and
COM9. When using BSP as the port name, BSP2 to BSP9 are available for use. The
port is available as soon as it is activated.

Note:
The CH column shows the RFCOMM channel of the service if the
service is RFCOMM-based. This information is not generally needed
except for debugging purposes.
To add a service to the Outgoing port, an active service must first be deactivated.
Then you can choose the ‘Outgoing’ option from the Activation menu (highlight a
service, right-click or press the [SPACE] bar to display the Activation menu).
The Authentication and Encryption options can be changed only before activation.
To change these after activation, deactivate the service first, then change the options.
Once a service is activated, all the information regarding the service, including the
RFCOMM channel number, is saved in the registry. (Some remote devices may
change their RFCOMM channel numbers when they reboot, so your saved setting
may not work when the remote device is rebooted. In that case, you must deactivate
the service and reactivate it to detect the current RFCOMM channel.)
Set PIN
PINs can be set for each device by pressing the Set PIN button in the Devices tab, or
you can skip this step and try to connect to the device first.
Important:
The remote device must have authentication enabled, otherwise
the PIN authentication will fail.
• Highlight a device, click on the Set Pin button, and type the PIN.
You will receive a message, either that the PIN has been successfully validated or
that it has been rejected.
If the PIN has been validated, an asterisk (*) appears in the PIN column in the
Devices list box, indicating that this device has a PIN set. Once a PIN is entered, it is
saved in the registry.
To remove the PIN:
• Choose Set PIN, and press [ENTER].
If the 7530 G2 attempts to connect to a remote device that has Authentication
enabled and does not have a required PIN set, an Authentication Request dialog
box appears.
• Enter the PIN, and tap on OK to connect the devices.

When this parameter is enabled (checked), the 7530 G2 begins communicating on
the channel specified in the Channel Number parameter when the unit is powered
up. This setting may prevent the migration of 7530 G2s to the same channel due to
uneven coverage in some sites.
If this parameter is disabled (unchecked), the unit will continue communicating on
the same channel that it was on before it was powered off.

This dialog box is completed by default with all channels that have frequencies
configured. A checkmark indicates that a channel is enabled. An unchecked check
box indicates that the channel is disabled. The maximum number of channels
supported by the RA1001 Narrow Band radio is 20.
Enabling a channel allows the channel to be set to an operating channel (Channel
Number) and makes it available for channel searching. For example, if Channel 1 is
the operating channel and all other channels are enabled, the 7530 G2 can roam
through all 20 channels.
Channel Switch Speed
This parameter changes the threshold the 7530 G2 uses to determine when
communication quality with a base station is unacceptable. When this threshold is
exceeded, the unit starts channel searching for a new base station.
Setting this parameter to “Slow” means a higher threshold – the 7530 G2 is more
tolerant of poor communication quality. When the channel quality of the hand-held
radio drops below 46%, the unit monitors the channel quality for 15 timeout periods
before searching for a new channel. If Channel Switch Speed is set to “Fast”, the
current channel is only monitored for up to 2 time-out periods before channel
switching begins.
Important:
136
“Fast” switch speed is most effective where coverage areas are
largely overlapping. If the coverage areas barely overlap, have
dead spots, or if the 7530 G2 frequently operates on the fringe of
coverage, this parameter should be set to “Slow”.

Manual Switch Table. If this parameter is disabled (unchecked), the hand-held uses
a standard algorithm to decide which channel it should switch to in the event of poor
channel quality.

Auto Radio Address
If Auto radio address is enabled, the 7530 G2 requests an automatically assigned
radio address. Manual radio address is displayed in grey text indicating that it

Manual Radio Address
The value entered in the Manual Radio Address parameter is used to identify
the 7530 G2 over the radio link. A unique value from 1 to 3840 must be assigned for
each unit.
Note:
This parameter is set to ‘0’ (an out-of-range value) by default to block
radio communication when the unit is initially powered up. This prevents
several new hand-helds from attempting to communicate with the same
default terminal number at initial power up. Once the default value is
changed, it cannot be set back to ‘0’.

Warning:
This parameter should not be changed from its factory setting
without a clear understanding of radio protocol timing.
The “Sync Delay” parameter specifies the delay between the base station
transmission and the first response window, measured in milliseconds. The value
assigned to this parameter must be compatible with other hand-helds and base
stations in the system. The allowable range for this parameter is between 1 and 40.

Window Delay
Important:
The value assigned to this parameter should not be changed from
the factory setting without a clear understanding of the timing of
the radio protocol.
This parameter specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) the 7530 G2 should
add to each response window in order to accommodate the receive/transmit
switching characteristics of the radio. The value assigned must be compatible with
other units and base stations in the system. The default setting of 19 is based on the
requirements of a 2 level modulation narrow band radio, operating at 9600 baud.
Poll Timeout
This parameter (in units of 16.6 ms) sets the time-out value used for automatic
channel switching. “Poll Timeout” is the time during which the 7530 G2 should
detect at least one poll from a base station. As each “Poll Timeout” passes without a
successful poll from the base station, the 7530 G2 channel quality decreases. If the
channel quality falls to below 46%, the unit begins searching for a new channel.
A value from 1 to 200 can be assigned to this parameter.
Late TX Limit
The value entered for this parameter (measured in milliseconds) sets the maximum
allowable deviation time from the start of a response window during which an
7530 G2 can make a transmission. After this threshold, the transmission will not be
attempted and the 7530 G2 will try again at the next opportunity. For example,
suppose this parameter is set to 5. From the beginning of the response window,
the 7530 G2 can be up to 5 milliseconds late sending a transmission. Beyond
this threshold, the transmission is not attempted. The hand-held waits for the
next opportunity.
The allowable range for this parameter is from 1 and 10 – the default value is 2.

Idle Poll Limit
Note:
The “Idle Poll Limit” parameter is only used when “Enable Power Saving” is enabled.
This parameter determines how many transmit opportunities – base station polls
with available response windows – must be consecutively skipped before the 7530
G2 places the radio into power-down mode for power saving. The allowable range
for this parameter is from 1 to 200. The default value is 10.
Lower values cause the hand-held to enter power saving mode quickly, extending
battery life but reducing 7530 G2 responsiveness. Higher values increase
responsiveness but decrease battery life.
Power Off Time
This parameter determines the amount of time (in seconds) the 7530 G2 radio stays
in power-down mode when a power down period has been initiated. “Power Off
Time” is only used when the “Enable Power Saving” parameter is enabled.
The allowable range for this parameter is 1 to 60.

Teklogix Base Station. This parameter is stored in the radio’s non-volatile memory.
The default value for “Modulation/Baud Rate” is 2 Level/9600
Data Squelch
“Data Squelch” controls the radio receiver, cutting it off when the signal is too weak
for reception of anything but noise. Receive Signal Strength Indicator values below
the “Data Squelch” threshold prevent further processing of the receive signal while
higher values allow further processing. The allowable range is 0 to 100 with a
default value of 0.
In noisy environments, this value can be increased to reject noise. In environments
with less noise, this value can be decreased to allow the received signal and increase
range. This parameter is stored in the radio’s non-volatile memory.

Dot Time (msec)
The value selected for “Dot Time (msec)” determines (in milliseconds) how long
the targeting dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep.
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can
enter a value from 0 to 3000. A value of 0 (zero) disables the target dot.
Short Code
When enabled, this parameter allows scanning of short I 2 of 5 bar codes (2
characters). When disabled, these short bar codes are rejected.
Enabling “Short Code” may reduce the robustness of the decoding since the
hand-held must decode more potential bar codes; it is therefore not recommended
for general-purpose bar codes with 4 or more characters.
Verify
The value entered for this parameter determines the number of correct additional
decodes required after the initial decode, prior to a bar code being accepted. Higher
values significantly increase the time it takes to decode a bar code but also improve
the reliability of the decoded bar code.

Security
This parameter controls the tolerance for decoding edge-to-edge bar codes
(Code 93, Code 128, UPC/EAN). Lower values have a lower tolerance for
misreads, but they also increase the time it takes to decode the bar code. The default
value of 30 is generally a good compromise setting.
5.11.2.2 Code 39
Enabled
Set this parameter to on to enable “Code 39” or off to disable it.
Full Ascii
If this parameter is enabled, the characters +, %, and / are used as escape
characters. The combination of an escape character and the next character
is converted to an equivalent ASCII character.
Include Check
If this parameter is enabled, the check digit is included with the decoded bar
code data.
AIAG Strip
If this parameter is enabled, the AIAG data identifier is removed from each decoded
Code 39 label. The data identifier occurs in the first position next to the Code 39
start character. It can be a single alphabetic character or a series of numeric digits
followed by an alphabetic character. This identifier defines the general category or
specific use of the data contained in the rest of the bar code.
Note: If your unit is operating with the Psion Teklogix TESS application, this
parameter should not be used in conjunction with the TESS AIAG feature.
This is because the hand-held performs the strip function before it processes the data through the AIAG feature; if the prefix is stripped, the data
is not identified as AIAG.
Error Accept
If the “Err Accept” and “AIAG Strip” parameters are enabled, all label data without
an AIAG identifier character is accepted. If the “Err Accept” parameter is disabled
and the “AIAG Strip” parameter is enabled, the label data is not accepted.

Addendum
An addendum is a separate bar code, supplementary to the main bar code.
This parameter provides two options: Not Required but Transmitted if Read or
Required and Transmitted.
• Double-tap on Addendum to display a dialog box listing your options.
• Highlight an item, and tap on OK.
When Addendum is set to Not Required but Transmitted if Read, the scanner
searches for an addendum and if one exists, appends it to the main bar code. When
the parameter is set to Required and Transmitted, the scanner does not accept the
main bar code without an addendum.
Addendum Add-on 2 And Addendum Add-on 5
Enabling these parameters sets the length of the addendum bar code to either 2 or
5 characters.

GTIN Compliant
GTIN (global trade item number) processing transmits EAN 128 as the 14-character
EAN/UCC GTIN. To use GTIN processing, you must activate the EAN 128 symbology.
Important:
When EAN 128 and GTIN processing are both activated, it is not
possible to read normal EAN 128 Codes.
Reading Range
Determines the reading distance from which a bar code can be successfully scanned.
The default setting Extended, allows for increased reading distance.
5.11.4.10 Codabar

a, b, c, d
A, B, C, D
a, b, c, d, /, t, n, *, e
DC1, DC2, DC3, DC4
Thus, when a set is chosen, the first and last digits of a Codabar message must be
one of those characters and the body of the message should not contain these
characters. Setting this parameter to Not Transmitted strips the start and stop
characters from this bar code.
CLSI Library System
When enabled, spaces are inserted after characters 1, 5, 10 in the 14-character label

Imager
When more than one bar code is visible in a single snap shot, this parameter allows
you to specify that only the centre image within the imager framing marker be read.
When this parameter is set to on, the target dot is pointed at the centre image and
only that image is returned.
Max Number Barcodes
Specifies the maximum number of bar codes the imager attempts to decode in an
image. A maximum of 6 bar codes can be decoded at one time.
Barcodes Must Decode
Specifies the minimum number of bar codes that the imager must decode in order to
report success.
Note:
This number must be less than the number of bar codes assigned to Max
Number Barcodes. The driver validates and reassigns the value if necessary.
Window Width
This parameter determines the width of the captured image in pixels.
Note:
The driver will validate and reassign the value assigned to this parameter,
if necessary; the driver will also use the Window Width value to horizontally center the image in the field of view.
Window Height
This parameter determines the height of the captured image in pixels.
Note:
The driver will validate and reassign the value assigned to this parameter,
if necessary; the driver will also use Window Height value to vertically
center the image in the field of view.
Dot Time (msec)
The value selected for “Dot Time (msec)” determines (in milliseconds) how long
the targeting dot remains on before the scanner begins capturing images. When you
double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a

5.11.5.2 Imager Advanced Options
Important:
Do not adjust the advanced options without first consulting Psion
Teklogix technical support.
Default Dev. On Reboot
The value assigned to this parameter determines whether or not the driver will
restore the factory defaults to the imager device on the next reboot—that is, a cold
boot or warm boot.
Note:
The driver will default the imager device on a clean-cold-boot, regardless
of the value of this parameter.
Min Scan Duration
This parameter defines the minimum amount of time in seconds that the imager will
scan when the trigger is pressed and held down without successful decode.
Note:
The actual scan duration when the trigger is pressed relies on the value
assigned to Captures Per HW Trigger, below.
Captures Per HW Trigger
The value assigned to this parameter determines the number of captures the imager
device will take while the imager's internal hardware trigger is held down.
Note:
This parameter, together with Min Scan Duration, determines the actual
scan duration. When the scan trigger is pressed and held down, the driver
starts a timer based on the value of Min Scan Duration and also sends a
command to emulate the hardware trigger. When completed, if the time
has not yet expired, it will send another command to the imager device,
forcing the imager to flash again using the value assigned to Captures Per
HW Trigger.
Auto Exposure
Important:
This parameter value should only be changed by qualified Psion
Teklogix personnel. It should be left at the default value – ‘on’.
Setting this parameter to on allows the imager to make automatic gain, integration
and illumination adjustments based on ambient light before capturing the bar code.
If the adjustment is insufficient, further adjustments are made automatically before
another image is captured.

Fast Converge
Note:
“Auto Exposure” must be set to ‘on’ in order for this parameter
to function.
Keep in mind that while this parameter can improve imager performance,
“Fast Converge” increases battery power consumption.
Setting this parameter to on speeds the “Auto Exposure” process. It allows the
imager to rapidly snap a number of bar code capture attempts while finding ideal
values for gain, integration and illumination.
Max Gain, Max Integration And Max Illumination
Important:
These parameter values should only be changed by qualified
Psion Teklogix personnel.
These parameters represent internal values used by the 2D imager. The “Auto
Exposure” parameter automatically adjusts the “Max Gain”, “Max Integration” and
“Max Illumination” parameters to produce the best bar code read. Keep in mind that
“Auto Exposure” must be set to on in order for these parameter values to be
automatically adjusted.
Double-tapping on any of these parameters displays an associated dialog box in
which an allowable range is displayed: Max Gain – 357 to 7920, Max Integration –
0 to 65535, Max Illumination – 0 to 7.
Decoder Timeout
The decoder is a set of algorithms that examine the image and attempt to find the bar
codes, and then turn the pixels into data that the computer can use—this process
takes time. ‘Decoder Timeout’ limits the amount of time the decoder will spend
attempting to decode an image, and forces it to stop and grab a new image, which
will probably be easier to decode.
Note:
190
When decoding multiple bar codes in one image, the value assigned to
‘Decoder Timeout’ should be increased to 200ms/extra bar code after the first.

Adaptive Windowing
Adaptive Windowing is an advanced technique used to speed up bar code
recognition in certain applications. The ‘Adaptive Windowing’ parameter
automatically reduces the size of the window to the user-programmed window size
when it successfully decodes (which reduces decode time the next time it is used),
but increases it to the full size window (1280x1024 for SX5303) on a failed decode.
Note:
This feature assumes that you have reached an understanding about how
the device operates in your application, and that, after a learning period,
operators will get used to using the imager in one particular way. It also
assumes that a trained operator will usually only have near miss scenarios.
Constant Illumination
Constant Illumination is used to reduce the intrusiveness of the device’s illumination
on the observer. Instead of the illumination turning on and off every time the device
attempts a decode (2-4 times per second), the illumination stays on from the time the
trigger is pulled until a decode is successful. This feature is useful in low light
environments, since it will also reduce the distraction that the illumination can have
on nearby coworkers.

This tab allows you to tailor the double-click parameters and the display options
associated with your scanner.
Double Click Parameters
Click Time (msec)
This parameter controls the maximum gap time (in milliseconds) for a double-click.
If the time between the first and second clicks of the scanner trigger is within this
time, it is considered a double-click. The allowable range is 0 to 1000. A value of
zero disables this feature.
A double-click produces different results depending on whether or not a value is
assigned in the “Click Data” parameter. When a value is not assigned for the “Click
Data”, double-clicking the scanner trigger overrides the target dot delay set in the
“Dot Time” parameter and initiates a normal scan sweep. If a value is assigned for
the “Click Data” parameter, double-clicking the scanner trigger inserts the “Click
Data” value rather than initiating a scan.
Click Data
For both integrated and external scanners, this parameter determines which
character is sent to the application installed in your 7530 G2 following a

Scan Result Time (sec)
The value assigned to the “Scan Result Time (sec)” parameter determines how long
the scan results of a successful scan are displayed on the screen. Time is measured in
seconds, and a value of “0” (zero) disables the parameter. When you choose this
option, a dialog box appears where you can enter a value.
Note:
To remove the scan result from the screen before the “Result Time” has
expired, point the scanner away from the bar code and press the trigger.
Good Scan Beep And Bad Scan Beep
These parameters determine whether or not the 7530 G2 emits an audible scanner
‘beep’ when a good (successful) scan or a bad (unsuccessful) scan is performed. Set
these parameters to either on to enable the beeper or off to disable it.
Soft Scan Timeout
This parameter is used by the SDK “Scan” function (soft-scan: starting a scan
session via the SDK function, instead of a physical user trigger press). The value
assigned to this parameter determines the soft-scan timeout from 1 to 10 sec.
(default is 3 sec.).

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Setup
5.12 SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Setup
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the protocol used to monitor and
manage devices attached to a TCP/IP network (providing they support SNMP).
SNMP uses Management Information Bases (MIBs) that define the variables an
SNMP Network Management Station can access. Each product has a defined set of
MIBs that determine how SNMP operates, the type of access allowed and so on.
All Psion Teklogix products support the TEKLOGIX-GENERIC-MIB – a MIB that
defines some common features across Psion Teklogix products. All devices also
support MIB-II, a management information base that defines the common features
of TCP/IP networks. The SNMP Agent software embedded in the 7530 G2 product
supports SNMPv1 (RFC 1157).

Battery Charging
6.4 Battery Charging
Note:
Initially, new batteries that have been fully charged may indicate slightly
less than 100% charge. No special conditioning is required. The full
capacity of the battery will reach 100% after 5 cycles through the charger.
It can take from 1.5 to 4 hours to charge a battery. The 7530 G2’s intelligent
charging system protects the battery from over-charging by terminating the charge
process when the battery is at maximum capacity.
Important:
To preserve battery integrity, the charger will proceed with a
charge only when the battery temperature falls between 5° C and
39° C (41° F to 102° F). If the battery is too hot or cold, the
battery status LED flashes yellow and the charge is suspended.
6.5 Gang Charger
The gang charger is designed to charge up to six 7530 G2 Lithium-Ion batteries at
one time. Your charger is shipped with the appropriate IEC mains power cord. If the
supplied power cord is incorrect for your country, contact Psion Teklogix for
assistance (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices).
Note:
The gang charger is shipped with a user manual. It is critical that this
manual be reviewed for additional information and updates.
6.5.1 Installation
The gang charger can be wall mounted using the wall mount kit, Model # HU3106,
or it can be operated on a flat surface. Install the charger in an area that is free from
excessive dirt, dust and contaminants. The ambient temperature must be in the range
5° C to 39° C (41° F to 102° F). The charger will not charge batteries outside
of this temperature range. For maximum performance, it is recommended that
the charger be operated at room temperature – a temperature range between
18° C to 25° C (64° F to 77° F).
The charger can consume up to 2A @ 120VAC or 1A @ 240VAC. Check to ensure
the mains circuit supplying the charger is adequate for this loading (especially if
several chargers are being powered from the same circuit).
After unpacking the unit:

Troubleshooting
The LED directly below the slot in which a battery is inserted lights up immediately.
A solid yellow LED indicates that the battery is being charged. If the battery
temperature is outside 5° C to 39° C (41° F to 102° F), the LED flashes yellow until the
temperature is acceptable. A fully discharged battery will normally take between 1.5
and 4 hours to charge. When the battery charge reaches 75%, the indicator flashes
green. At full capacity, it turns solid green.
When the battery is fully charged, the charger stops applying power; the battery
cannot be overcharged if left in the charger slot. The 75% charge indicator is handy
if you need a quick recharge – it often occurs after less than an hour.
6.5.5 Troubleshooting
6.5.5.1
Excessive Charge Duration
The charger is equipped with a recalibration function – a function that fully
discharges and then fully recharges the battery. This process is necessary to
recalibrate the battery capacity gauge internal to the battery. The charger attempts
recalibration when:
• the battery capacity is at less than 30%, and
• the battery has undergone more than 40 partial charge cycles since the last
full discharge.
A complete battery discharge takes between 1.5 and 4 hours to complete. When in
discharge mode, the LED indicator flashes yellow. The recalibration function
extends the charge time by up to 2 hours.
6.5.5.2
Indicator Flashing Red
If the indicator flashes red:
• Remove all batteries and disconnect the mains power cable.
• Wait at least 20 seconds, and then plug the cable in again.
If any of the charge slot LEDs continue to flash red, the charger is defective and
requires service. If all indicators are flashing red, there is a power supply problem
and the charger requires service.

Quad Dock
6.8 Quad Dock
Note:
The quad dock is shipped with a user manual. It is critical that this manual be reviewed for additional information and updates.
The Quad Dock permits each of four docked 7530 G2 hand-helds to communicate
with a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network at greater than 2Mbps. It also provides
sufficient power to operate and fast charge the batteries in the 7530 G2s.
6.8.1 Installation
The quad dock should be located away from excessive dirt, dust and contaminants.
The ambient temperature must fall between 5° C to 39 °C (41° F to 102° F). The
7530 G2 internal charger will not charge batteries outside of this temperature range.
For maximum performance, it is recommended that the quad dock be operated at
room temperature – from 18° C to 25° C (64° F to 77° F).
The quad dock can consume up to 3A @ 120VAC or 1.5A @ 240VAC. Ensure that
the mains circuit supplying the unit is adequate, especially if several docks are being
powered from the same circuit.
After unpacking the unit:
•
•
Visually inspect the unit for any damage.
Install the IEC power cord and apply power.
A green indicator in the lower-right corner of the front panel lights up to indicate
that power is present.
•
Attach a CAT5 RJ45 network patch cable (supplied) between your network
and the RJ45 jack on the rear of the dock.
A green LED is illuminated next to the RJ45 connector when a valid network link is
established.
A user application must be loaded onto each 7530 G2 that utilizes the quad dock for
communication. When the network is connected and this application is loaded, the
quad dock is ready for use.
6.8.2 Indicators And Controls
The quad dock has no user controls. It is equipped with a power indicator LED and
RJ45 link and traffic indicator LEDs. When a valid network link is established, a
green LED is illuminated next to the RJ45 connector.

Using The Quad Dock
6.8.3 Using The Quad Dock
•
Gently slide the 7530 G2 into the cradle portion of the quad dock until
lightly latched.
The 7530 G2 detects that it is in a quad dock and displays the appropriate icon in the
taskbar –
. The battery charge LED on the 7530 G2 lights up to show it has
external power and may start charging the battery.
Interaction with the 7530 G2 while in the quad dock is a function of the user
application software used to communicate with the host network.
6.8.4 Network Access
The quad dock includes a four port 10/100 Ethernet hub. Each of the four
downstream ports are connected to dedicated USB-to-Ethernet converters. These
USB converters appear as USB slaves to the 7530 G2 USB host controller. The
7530 G2 automatically detects insertion into a quad dock and loads the appropriate
drivers to communicate with the USB/Ethernet converters.
6.8.4.1
Network Addressing
Although the USB converters have fixed Ethernet MAC addresses, there is
generally no correlation between these addresses and a specific 7530 G2 hand-held.
The host application uses standard TCP/IP protocol to name, locate and
communicate with a specific 7530 G2 on the network.
If a link is established between a hand-held and a host, the application on the host
and on the 7530 G2 must have a recovery mechanism in the event that the hand-held
is removed from the dock and the link is interrupted.
6.8.5 Battery Charging
The quad dock supplies DC power to enable the 7530 G2 internal fast charger.
Charge status is displayed on the hand-held charge LED (see “Charge LED” on
page 43). Battery charging continues whether the unit is switched on or off.
Normally, it takes between 1.5 and 4 hours to fully charge the 7530 G2 internal
battery.
6.8.6 Troubleshooting
The indicators, applications and drivers required to use and monitor the docking
station are installed on the 7530 G2 – no indicators or applications are present on the
docking station itself.

device such as a printer)
The standard Psion Teklogix PDM kit (PN HU4001) includes the necessary DC
power supply, USB cables and RS232D 9-pin cable.
Use only the recommended adaptor with the PDM – it includes transient
suppressors that protect your 7530 G2 from damage.
The PDM contains reverse polarity and over voltage protection. If the DC power
jack is wired backwards or exceeds 20VDC, the PDM shuts down to protect the
7530 G2, the PDM and the power supply from damage. Psion Teklogix does not
recommend substituting the DC power supply provided with your PDM.
The DC power supplied by the PDM is sufficient to operate the 7530 G2 and fast
charge its internal battery at the same time. The 7530 G2 can run from a PDM
without a battery installed.

Bluetooth Peripherals
6.10 Bluetooth Peripherals
If the 7530 G2 is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, it is possible to communicate
with a variety of Bluetooth peripherals, including GSM/GPRS handsets, scanners,
printers, and so on. The range of the Bluetooth radio in the 7530 G2 is limited to
approximately 10 meters (32 feet). The Bluetooth antenna is located behind the
scanner ‘bulge’ on the back of the hand-held.
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for the Bluetooth peripherals listed below.
Psion Teklogix provides built-in support for:
• Bluetooth-equipped cell phone.
• Serial Port Profile (SPP).
• Dial-up Networking Profile (DUN).
• File Transfer Profile (FTP).
• Human Interface Device (HID).
• LAN Access Profile (LAP).
• Object Push Profile (OPP).
Keep in mind that Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11g radios both operate in the 2.4GHz
band. Although the 7530 G2 includes features to minimize interference,
performance of the system will not be optimal if you use both radios simultaneously.
Typically, when both radios operate in the 7530 G2 at the same time, they cannot
transmit simultaneously – this has a negative impact on overall system throughput.
To minimize the impact on the backbone 802.11 network, Psion Teklogix
recommends using Bluetooth peripherals that have low transaction rates (such as
printers and scanners).
Bluetooth peripherals are configured by choosing the Bluetooth icon in the Control
Panel. Refer to “Bluetooth Setup” on page 114 for information about setting up
your Bluetooth devices for communication. In addition, review the manual shipped
with your Bluetooth device to determine the method used to associate with the 7530
G2 host.
6.11 The 7530 G2 Picker Cradle
The 7530 G2 picker cradle is a highly ruggedized, single station dock. Although
it provides quick insertion and removal, the cradle holds the 7530 G2 securely even
when operated in high vibration environments (such as vehicles not equipped with
suspensions).

Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual
Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
Picker Cradle Mounting Recommendations
The7530 G2 base picker cradle can be outfitted with two options – a power module
and a port replicator. Psion Teklogix also supplies a range of standard mounts for
the hand-held picker cradles, and the 7530 G2 picker cradle is compatible with all
of them.
6.11.1 Picker Cradle Mounting Recommendations
Warning:
Before mounting a picker cradle in a vehicle, there are a number
of operator safety issues that require careful attention. An improperly mounted cradle may result in one or more of the following:
operator injury, operator visibility obstruction, operator distraction
and/or poor ease of egress for the operator. Psion Teklogix strongly
recommends that you seek professional mounting advice from the
vehicle manufacturer.
Cable routing within a vehicle cab also requires careful consideration, especially for separately tethered scanners and other devices
with loose cables. If you are unable to obtain suitable advice,
contact Psion Teklogix for assistance (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices). Note also that for better protection,
the equipment should be mounted inside the vehicle roll cage.
Pedestal mounts are recommended for all fixed mount locations because they offer
optimal operator access. In addition, for safety reasons, only pedestal mounts with
fully locking joints should be used in vehicles. Always adjust the pedestal for the
optimum viewing angle, and securely tighten the hex and wing screws.
The most effective way to mount the picker cradle is to use the four #8-32 threaded
inserts on the rear of the unit. Bolts must not extend more than 10mm (3/8") into
the cradle.
To accommodate the service loop of the connector cable, leave a 4" clearance at the
bottom of the cradle. Leave a 7" (minimum) clearance at the top of the cradle to
allow easy removal of the hand-held. Also remember to leave at least a 3" clearance
at the sides of the cradle to allow activation of the release knobs. Refer to the
detailed assembly instructions that are packaged with the cradle when selecting a
mounting location.
6.11.1.1 Mounting Template
The picker cradle is shipped with detailed mounting instructions including a
drill template.

Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
Wiring Guidelines
6.11.2 Wiring Guidelines
Before installing the cables between the cradle and other devices, consider
the following:
• Ensure that drilling holes will not damage the vehicle or its wiring.
• Protect cable runs from pinching, overheating and physical damage.
• Use grommets to protect cables that pass through metal.
• Use plastic straps and tie-downs to secure cables and connectors in their
desired location, away from areas where they may get snagged or pulled.
• Keep cables away from heat sources, grease, battery acid and other
potential hazards.
• Keep cables away from control pedals and other moving parts that may
damage the cables or interfere with the operation of the vehicle.
6.11.3 Using The Picker Cradle
If your 7530 G2 is equipped with a shoulder strap or cover, these accessories need to
be removed before installing the unit in a picker cradle. There is no need to remove
handstraps, pistol grips or tethered devices from the unit.
• Slide the 7530 G2 into the cradle, and press firmly downward until it locks
into place. On a vehicle, it’s a good idea to pull up on the 7530 G2 to be
certain that it is secure.
• To remove the 7530 G2, press firmly on one of the knobs on either side of
the cradle until it releases. You do not need to press both knobs.
6.11.4 Maintaining The Picker Cradle
Two latches in the cradle hold the 7530 G2 firmly in place. Although these latches
are designed for at least 80,000 cycles, they will wear over time and will no longer
lock the 7530 G2 securely in the cradle. For replacement parts and instructions
contact Psion Teklogix (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide
Offices). Partial disassembly is required.

Powered Cradle Installation In High Voltage Vehicles
6.11.5 Powered Cradle Installation In High Voltage Vehicles
Warning:
Voltages exceeding 60VDC are considered hazardous. For powered
cradle installations on vehicles with batteries above this voltage,
ensure the powered cradle power connector is mounted in a dry
location on the vehicle, or that the connector is insulated with an
appropriate waterproof material after installation. The connector
must also be installed out of the vehicle operator’s reach. Exposing
an accessible power connector to water or other liquids could create
a hazardous situation resulting in serious injury or death.
Installation of powered cradles in vehicles that operate above 60VDC require
special consideration.
Due to the hazardous voltages present on these vehicles, it is necessary to ensure
that the powered cradle power supply cable connector is not accessible to the
vehicle operator, and does not get exposed to water or other liquids. This can be
accomplished in one of the following ways:
• Ensure the power connector is installed in a dry location on the vehicle,
away from the vehicle operator’s reach (perhaps under a vehicle dash or in a
sealed housing).
• Cover the power connector with a waterproof heat shrink material.
• Wrap the connector securely with a waterproof electrical tape in an area out
of the vehicle operators reach.
All other installation requirements outlined in this document should also be
followed for High Voltage vehicles to insure safe installation and operation of the
powered cradle.
6.11.6 Powered Cradle Installation
The powered cradle option is designed to allow the 7530 G2 to be powered by a
vehicle battery. The battery installed in the 7530 G2 is also recharged by the vehicle
battery. This option accepts DC power sources over the range 12V to 80V.
The 7530 G2 picker cradle can be ordered with the powered cradle option installed,
or it can be retrofitted later at an authorized Psion Teklogix service depot. Service
offices are listed in Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices.
The 7530 G2 charging LED (see “Charge LED” on page 43) indicates that external
power is available, and it also indicates the charging status of the internal battery.

Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
Wiring Vehicle Power To The Cradle
Warning:
Applying a voltage above 90VDC or reversing polarity may result
in permanent damage to the cradle power option and will void the
product warranty.
Warning:
TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK when the powered cradle option
is installed, always ensure that the rear panel ground lug on the
picker cradle is connected to the vehicle chassis. Failure to do this
could result in serious injury or death.
The metal chassis of the picker cradle must be connected directly to the chassis of
the vehicle. A safety ground lug (clearly labelled on the rear of the cradle chassis) is
provided for this purpose. The grounding strap must connect from the ground stud
on the picker cradle to a solid, reliable contact point on the main portion of the
vehicle chassis. It must not be connected to battery negative or a terminal block.
This grounding strap ensures that if there is a fault in the vehicle wiring or in the
picker cradle power module, the picker cradle cannot be at a hazardous voltage with
respect to the vehicle chassis.
Connection between the picker cradle ground lug and the vehicle chassis should be
done with a 16 gauge ground strap (ground wire). Connect the ground strap to the
picker cradle utilizing the ground lug hardware supplied with the picker cradle and a
#10 heavy duty wire crimp ring terminal. Torque the ground lug hardware to 23.0
+/- 2.0 in-lbs. Connect the other end of the ground strap to a solid, reliable point on
the main portion of the vehicle chassis, ensuring a solid electrical connection.
As with other vehicle cables, the routing of the ground strap should be carefully
considered to ensure it does not pose a hazard to the operator or the safe operation of
the vehicle. If necessary, secure the ground strap with cable ties or some other
mechanical means to prevent loops or loose lengths of wire that could catch on
stationary items when the vehicle is in motion.
6.11.6.1 Wiring Vehicle Power To The Cradle
A 1.8 meter (6 foot) extension power cable (PN 13985-302) is supplied with your
power cradle. This cable should be wired to a filtered, fused (maximum 10A)
accessory supply on the vehicle. The power cradle draws no more than 8A (less if
the accessory supply is greater than 12V). Any additional wiring, connectors or
disconnects used should be rated for at least 10A.
232
Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 Hand-Held Computer User Manual
Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
The Port Replicator
The red lead of the power cable attaches to the positive vehicle supply. The black
lead connects to the negative supply – this should be connected to a proper terminal
block and not to the vehicle body. The power cradle is fully isolated and can be used
with both negative and positive chassis vehicles.
You may have the option of connecting power before or after the ‘key’ switch. It is
preferable to wire the power cradle after the key switch – that is, it cannot be turned
on without the key on. However, if the operator switches the key off repeatedly for
long periods during a shift, it may make more sense to wire the cradle before the
switch.
Keep in mind that the 7530 G2 will continue to operate with or without vehicle
power as long as its battery has sufficient charge.
If an unfused power source must be used, a fuse assembly (PN 19440) must be
added to the extension power cable (the fuse and instructions are supplied with the
cable). Use only a 10A slow blow UL approved fuse in the fuse assembly.
6.11.7 The Port Replicator
The port replicator is an optional accessory that allows tethered devices (e.g.,
scanners) as well as mounted peripherals (e.g., bar code printers or weigh scales) to
be attached to the picker cradle. The replicator can be used with or without the
cradle power option.
The functionality of the 7530 G2 tether port is duplicated on the port replicator. In
addition to the tether port, the replicator is equipped with a standard 9 pin RS232D
serial interface. This interface is typically used for fixed peripherals such as printers.
Your serial device likely includes a suitable cable connector for this port.
Note:
The 7530 G2 picker cradle can be ordered with the port replicator option
installed, or it can be retrofitted later by an authorized Psion Teklogix
service depot. Service offices are listed in Appendix A: Support Services
And Worldwide Offices.

Special intermediate cabling assemblies are available to allow older devices or
unique peripherals to be connected to the JB5 tether port. These cabling assemblies
permit scanner cables to be re-terminated in an intermediate in-line connector
(called LTW), which then interfaces to one of a number of standard adaptor cables
with JB5 terminations.
These kits include assembly instructions and include the mating connector.
• 1002162 Cable Adaptor LTW - JB5 Scan Decoded.
• 1002163 Cable Adaptor LTW - JB5 Scan Undecoded.
• 1002164 Cable Adaptor LTW - JB5 Scan RS-232.

a Psion Teklogix 7530 G2 using the USB port on the Portable Docking Module
(PDM) connector. To download the USB Setup application, go to:
www.psionteklogix.com/downloads
This will take you to the Teknet home page.
•
Login with your Teknet Username and Password. (If you’re not already a
member of Teknet, you can register for free at this home page so that you
can access the USB Setup application.)
Once you’ve entered your name and password, the Download page is displayed.
•
Scroll down to the Utilities heading, and then under USB Setup, tap on
Download. If you need further assistance, please contact Psion Teklogix
support (1-800-387-8898).
