Reset Button Use with caution. The Reset button is on the right side (display facing up) of the Marathon. Press the Reset button in with the tip of the stylus and the Marathon immediately disconnects all power sources. The Marathon turns Off (uncontrolled shutdown).
The Marathon power supply connector accepts DC input voltage at 19 Volts. Antenna Signal Pathway The external GPS and WWAN antenna signal pathways are located on the bottom of the Marathon. The antenna signals originate from the external GPS and WWAN antenna connectors on the vehicle dock. No physical antenna connects directly to these ports on the Marathon.
• Windows logon can be performed with a fingerprint scan as opposed to the traditional user name and password. You must create a Windows user account with a password, then shutdown and restart the Marathon before you can add fingerprint security to that user account. After rebooting, create fingerprint security, then shutdown and restart the Marathon to save the password in the registry.
Fingerprint Reader / Biometric Mouse The Fingerprint Reader / Biometric Mouse SDK is available from the AuthenTec Developer Community web site. Click here to access the AuthenTec Developer Community web sites SDK link. Navigation By default, the biometric mouse is enabled for cursor navigation. Sliding a finger over the biometric mouse moves the cur- sor in the same direction the finger moves.
Pre-requisite: The Marathon is in the Dock, and a second monitor is attached to the dock. The Marathon display driver has been setup to extend the Marathon display to the second monitor. Use a connected USB mouse to select items on the displays. The mouse can be connected to the Marathon or the desktop dock.
The Display The Marathon display is capable of supporting WVGA graphics modes (800x480). The display covering is designed to resist stains. The touch screen allows signature capture and touch input. A display optimized for outdoor viewing is available. The touch screen is a Resistive Panel with a scratch resistant finish that can detect touches by a stylus, and translate them into computer commands.
Introduction Like any personal computer, there are many aspects to the setup and configuration of the Marathon. Much of the setup and configuration of the Marathon is dependent upon the optional features (both hardware and software) installed on the computer.
This is a standard Microsoft Windows control panel applet. On the Settings tab, two displays are supported. By default, dis- play #1 is the Marathon's built in WVGA display. Display #2 is an external display connected to the VGA port on the Mara- thon desktop dock.
User Accounts Panel Note: The following applies to a Marathon that is not part of a domain. When the Marathon is part of a domain, the user is prompted for credentials at Windows startup or log on.
When the GPS module is factory installed in the Marathon, based on the current Marathon configuration the GPS module will use COM 5 on the Marathon to retrieve latitude (the location north or south of the equator in degrees) and longitude (the angular distance from the Prime Meridian in degrees).
4. Line up the charging pins on the extended battery with the charging pins in the Marathon extended battery connector bay. 5. Connect the extended battery to the Marathon using the captive screws in the extended battery.

Configuration bar codes in this guide are designed for a specific type of bar code reader engine. Determining the type of bar code reader engine for your Marathon is an important requirement before using it to scan a configuration bar code. If you are unsure, contact your System Administrator for assistance.
Note: The function to use an imager like a camera (or for OCR decoding) is not supported. Using a Continuous Scan option, if available, to scan programming bar codes is not supported. The linear bar codes in this guide were created using Code 128 symbology. Your Marathon has been set up to automatically read / decode Code 128 bar codes.
The scan On indicator illuminates (usually red) when the beam is on. Following a bar code scan and “good read” the indicator usually turns green and the Marathon beeps, indicating a successful scan. The mobile device may also play a WAV file while decoding.
• Decrease decode time by disabling unused bar code types. The bar code reader engine can store several different bar code symbologies at the same time. This means the Marathon is able to decode a Code 39 bar code, then an Interleaved 2 of 5 bar code, then a different bar code without requiring a parameter reset.
Programming the Symbol Imager This section’s explanations and instructions are directed toward the Symbol SE4400 /4500 Imager engine in the Marathon add- on module. Do not scan the bar codes in this section with any other imager or laser engine.

Decoding Illumination Note: When this parameter is disabled, any LED Illumination parameter setting is ignored. The decoder has three small bright LEDs situated above the scan aperture. Enable this parameter for LED illumination upon every decode. The effectiveness of the illumination decreases as the dis- tance to the target increases.
Operational Mode In Decode Mode (the default mode), and upon a Scan button event, the imager attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of view. The decoder remains in this mode as long as the Scan button is pressed or until a bar code is decoded. Note: A Decode Mode bar code is not available.
Enabled Always Power Mode Note: The Marathon is designed to be operated in Low Power Mode. Leave this value unchanged. A parameter setting of Continuous On means the laser will not power down until the mobile device is powered off.
This parameter determines how long the decoder will attempt to decode a bar code before determining if it is a good read or a bad read. Presentation Mode means the decoder is always On and will scan bar codes that enter its field of view. Presentation Mode applies to Decode Mode only.
Time Delay to Low Power Mode This parameter sets the time the decoder remains active after decoding. The decoder wakes upon a Scan button press or when the host attempts to communicate with the decoder. This parameter only applies when Power Mode (page 13-16) is set to Low Power.
