Motion Computing C5 manual Getting Started

Getting Started 1

The Motion™ C5 is a new type of computer designed for health care users, that integrates traditional computer features with data capture technologies, digital ink, and speech recognition.

The C5 is the first product in this new category, called the mobile clinical assistant, and differs from other convertible and slate devices in the following ways:

•Minimizes ports and connectors, creating a semi-sealed device that is easier to clean and disinfect.

•Includes several built-in data capture technologies—such as a bar code scanner, RFID reader, and camera—that eliminate the need for bulky external devices.

•Delivers an optimal balance of performance and portability.

If you have never used a mobile clinical assistant or a pen-based computer, use the information in this section to get started quickly. If you have, skip to the next chapter to learn about the features of the Motion C5. If there is a particular feature you want to learn about, look on the Contents page. Because you typically use a pen instead of a mouse with the Motion C5, we use the term tap instead of click in most situations.

For safety information, see the Safety and Regulatory Guide packaged with the C5.
