    + :the ‘c’ can be 2, 3 or 4 denoting the combinations of GSM/GPRS, Compact Flash Socket and WLAN. (Note: All versions have Bluetooth version 1.2 and 1GB maximum SD card slots)  
       
    + ==Configuration Number (C/N)==  
    + The configuration number can be used to determine certain information about a unit. For example, the 4th digit determines which Wi-Fi module is installed. A C denotes a ZCOM WiFi module and an H determines a Summit Wi-Fi module.

    + ==[[PHL7xxx]] FAQs==  
    + '''How do I change the default settings of the function keys?'''  
    + :Click the Windows icon on the taskbar, and then go to Settings -> Control Panel. Double-tap on Control Center. The last option on the resulting page should be entitled "Fn-Key Settings." Click the Property button next to it. In the resulting window you can attach new applications to the function keys, or enable / disable the keys.  
       
    + '''How do I programmatically and locally retrieve the IP address of my device?'''  
    + :<code>IPAddress ipAddress = Dns.GetHostEntry("localhost").AddressList[0];</code>  
    + :See [http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964694(VS.80).aspx this page] for more details.

    + '''What is the battery life of the standard battery? Of the extended battery?'''  
    + The standard battery life is rated at 3000 mAh (milliamp hours), and the extended battery is rated at 4000 mAh. The extended battery therefore yields about 33% more battery life. In a test of real battery life duration, the standard battery lasted around 7 hours, and the extended battery around 9.5 hours. This test included all of the devices within the PHL unit turned on, and no scans were made.  
       
    + '''What sort of 802.11 security is available out of box?'''  
    + :Authentication Modes:  
    + ::Open  
    + ::Shared  
    + ::WPA-PSK  
    + ::WPA  
    + :Encryption Modes:  
    + ::WEP (Open, Shared)  
    + ::TKIP (WPA-PSK, WPA)  
    + :IEEE 802.11x Authentication:  
    + ::EAP-TLS (Open, Shared, WPA)  
    + ::PEAP (Open, Shared, WPA)  
       
    + '''Is the built-in WLAN card Cisco certified?'''  
    + :The short answer is that no, it isn't. However, a specially-designed Summit CF10G card can be swapped out for the internal WLAN card, and combined with the Summit Config Utility, the user can get on a Cisco-certified network with the [[PHL7xxx]].  
    + ::Steps to upgrade the WLAN card:'''  
    + :::*Disconnect any power, remove the battery  
    + :::*Ground yourself, get rid of any static electricity you might have on you  
    + :::*Remove the top cover housing  
    + :::*With a Torx T8 screwdriver, remove the front cover  
    + :::*Disconnect the ribbon cable attaching the main logic board to the keypad board  
    + :::*Remove the two Philips screws at the bottom front of the logic board  
    + :::*Pull board out carefully  
    + :::*Disconnect the ribbon cable attaching the scanner board to the logic board  
    + :::*Disconnect the tiny power cable attached to the logic board; leave the power cable + battery attached (or else you will lose all the data on the unit!)  
    + :::*Remove the four Philips screws on the CompactFlash housing; pull gently but firmly to remove the housing  
    + :::*Remove the Philips screw holding the ZCom WLAN card in place  
    + :::*Remove the ZCom WLAN card  
    + :::*Remove the antenna from the ZCom WLAN card, and connect it to the main connector on the Summit card  
    + :::*Plug the Summit card into the now-empty CF slot (it will be tight with the antenna wire, but it's possible; just be careful!)  
    + :::*Reassemble unit  
    + :::*Replace warranty stickers  
       
    + '''How can i check which WiFi module is integrated in my PHL-7xxx unit?'''  
    + :If the C/N is 32E'''C'''10A: it's a Zcom module.  
    + :If the C/N is 32E'''H'''10A: it's a Summit module.  
       
    + '''Does the [[PHL7xxx]] have SDIO support?'''  
    + :No, it does not; it only supports SD storage cards.  
       
    + '''How do I play a sound in my C#, .NET Compact Framework application?'''  
    + :To play a .wav file, you must write a P/Invoke function for the native PlaySound function. Please see [http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa909766.aspx PlaySound on MSDN].  
       
    + '''Can the LED be programmatically controlled?'''  
    + :No, the LED cannot be controlled; there is no such API that allows for this functionality. The LED is used for representing the Scan Engine status only, and is fixed to the COM port to which the Scan Engine is connected to.
