Interactive Sensor Technology
The MC3300 contains sensors that monitor movement and orientation:
Gyroscope - Measures angular rotational velocity to detect rotation of the device.
Accelerometer - Measures the linear acceleration of movement to detect the orientation of the device.
In order to take advantage of these sensors, applications use API commands. Refer to the Zebra Android
EMDK for more information.
Suspend Mode
The device goes into suspend mode when you press the Power button or after a period of inactivity (set in the
Display settings window).
To wake the device from Suspend mode, press the Power button. The Lock screen displays. Swipe the screen
up to unlock. If the Pattern screen unlock feature is enabled, the Pattern screen appears instead of the Lock

NOTE:
If you enter the PIN, password, or pattern incorrectly five times, you must wait 30 seconds before trying again.
If you forget the PIN, password, or pattern contact your system administrator.
