Battery information

Conditioning a new battery
Before you use a battery pack for the first time, there is a conditioning process that you should follow:

  1. Connect the AC adapter and fully charge the battery.
  2. Turn on the device and complete setting up the operating system.
  3. Disconnect the AC adapter.
  4. Operate the device using battery power.
  5. Reconnect the AC adapter and fully charge the battery again.
  6. Follow these steps again until the battery has been charged and discharged three times.

Use this conditioning process for all new batteries, or if a battery hasn’t been used for a long time The battery conditioning process ensures your battery accepts the maximum possible charge. Failure to follow this procedure will prevent you from obtaining the maximum battery charge, and will also shorten the effective lifespan of the battery. In  addition, the useful lifespan of the battery is adversely affected by the following usage patterns:
Using the device on constant AC power.
Not discharging and recharging the battery to its extremes, as described above.
Frequent use; the more you use the battery, the faster it will reach the end of its effective life.

General battery safety information:
Only use the specified battery and power supply provided.
Use of any other batteries or power supplies may result in fire, or damage to the device, battery, or operator.
If the tablet is going to be stored for more than three months, remove the battery from the device to avoid battery damage or self-discharge.

NFC contactless card reader

Near-field communication (also known as NFC) enables two electronic devices to communicate with each other. For example, an NFC card and a card reader will engage with each other, with a read range of around 4cm offering more flexibility in the field than a contact card. The NFC contact area is in the device upper center.ARATEK Marshall 8 Compact and Power Biometric Tablet -
NFC

The barcode scanner is a sub-miniature area imager engine optimized for barcode reading. The engine captures digital images of a barcode for transmission to a decoder to  decode a 1D or 2D barcode of any format supported by the decoding software. The scanner includes an LED illumination system. Please select your preferred image capture preferences and parameters.

Touch Screen

The MARSHALL 8 display panel with high brightness and high contrast is visible under strong sunlight or outdoor environments. Avoid direct sunlight when possible to avoid overheating. Your tablet screen is tough and scratch- resistant, but direct impact of sharp objects and abrasive materials could cause damage and leave marks. Always handle with care.

  • Keep your tablet display clean by using a soft, lint-free cloth. Use a damp microfiber cloth to take care of fingerprints, grime, and stubborn stains. Once all the stains are removed, wipe the screen again with a dry microfiber cloth. Always turn your device off before cleaning it. Never spray or drip cleaning liquid directly on the screen. Never use harsh chemicals. Never use abrasive cloths or paper towels. Use a cotton swab to pick up dust and grime from the rim of your MARSHALL 8 screen.

Fingerprint Scanner
The BD1300 can accommodate a FAP20 or FAP30 optical fingerprint scanner. Each fingerprint scanner is FBI certified to ensure fast high-quality image capture. The fingerprint sensor is software activated. Simply push down your finger on the capture window.
Do not use excessive force. Always keep the capture window clean.ARATEK

FCC Statement

  1. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
    (1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
    (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

  2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following  measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

SAR Information Statement
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the  Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluations of scientific studies.  The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.

  • Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
    Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest  SAR value for this model phone when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.810W/Kg(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
    The FCC has granted Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines. SAR  information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on
    FCC ID: 2AGUJM8 Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at  http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaging over one gram of tissue.  The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 10mm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.  Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or approved antenna.
