ABOUT THE COMPUTER FEATURES
This chapter introduces the 75 Series Mobile Computers with Windows®
Embedded Handheld 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 Microsoft Windows Embedded Handheld operating system. They are
lightweight, easy-to-use, and run most software developed for the Windows
Embedded 6.5 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 Language Provisioning
You are prompted to select a language provision when the computer starts for the
first time. It may take as little as three minutes to load your language. Once loaded,
your selected language persists through all boot scenarios (warm, cold, or clean).
Make sure you select the correct language before you tap Provision. If you need to
change the language provisioning, you must reinstall the operating system and
restart the computer. When the computer restarts, select your new language.
About the Battery
The computers use the following rechargeable Lithium-ion battery packs as their
main power source:
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell
battery may result in damage not covered by the warranty.
About CN75 NI and CN75e NI models
Charge the Battery
Fully charge the battery before using your computer for the first time. You can
charge the battery before or after you install it in the computer. A fully discharged
battery charges in approximately 6 hours.

5. Snap the new cover into place.
6. Tighten the screws to secure the I/O cover to the computer.
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 Hibernate mode before removing the
battery. Hibernate 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.
