ABOUT THE COMPUTER FEATURES
This chapter introduces the 75 Series Mobile Computers with Android® 6 operating
system. Use this chapter to learn about the basic features and functions of each
computer, as well as the available accessories for it.
About the 75 Series Mobile Computers
The ergonomically-designed Honeywell 75 Series Mobile Computers are built on
the Android 6 operating system. They are lightweight, easy-to-use, and run most
software developed for the Android 6 platform, including standalone, client-server,
and browser-based applications.
The 75 Series consists of three different models: CN75, CN75e and CK75.
The CN75 and CN75e computers have the same features except that the CN75e
offers a larger keypad for data-input intensive applications. The CK75 has most of
the same features as the CN75, but the CK75 offers a choice of imager options and
does not offer WWAN or GPS radio versions. Honeywell offers heater-equipped
cold storage CK75 versions to extend the use of the CK75 in cold storage and
freezer environments. Non-incendive (NI) versions for hazardous environments are
offered of the CN75 and CN75e.
Throughout this manual, all versions of the mobile computer are referred to as 75
Series unless information is specific to a particular model of computer. Pictures of
the CN75 and CK75 represent the three models of the 75 Series computers.
Non-incendive models can be identified by the device label verifying non-
incendive certification and a teal colored label on the front/top of the computer.
Overview of 75 Series Features

About Battery Replacement
When the battery in the computer has a low charge, replace it with a charged
battery.
You should always place the computer in Battery Swap mode before removing the
battery. Battery Swap mode places the computer in a low power state so that the
battery can be removed for a short period of time.
Note: When you remove a battery from the computer, Honeywell recommends that you
install a charged battery within one minute to maintain your network connections.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell
battery may result in damage not covered by the warranty.
Ensure all components are dry prior to placing the battery in the computer.
Mating wet components may cause damage not covered by the warranty
