E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F MX3X User’s Guide Introduction Overview The LXE MX3X is a rugged, portable, hand-held Microsoft® Windows® CE .NET equipped mobile computer capable of wireless data communications. The mobile device can transmit information using a 2.4 GHz radio (with an internally mounted antenna) and it can store information for later transmission through an RS-232, InfraRed, or USB port. The device can be scaled from a limited function batch computer to an integrated RF scanning computer. The mobile device is horizontally oriented and features backlighting for the display. The touch-screen display supports graphic features and Windows icons that the Windows CE .NET operating system supports. The keys on the keypad are constructed of a phosphorescent material that can easily be seen in dimly lighted areas. The MX3-RFID version of the MX3X has an RFID module permanently attached to the back of the device. The module protects the RFID antenna and tag reader. A passive vehicle cradle is available that has been designed specifically for the MX3-RFID device deeper back cover. The MX3P is another version of the MX3X with a deeper back cover. The deeper back cover allows it to use the MX3-RFID passive vehicle mount cradle. The MX3P does not have an integrated laser scanner nor does it have an RFID tag reader. Device-specific cables are available for all versions. The stylus in the Stylus Kit (shipped with each unit) is used to assist in entering data and configuring the unit. Protective film for the touchscreen is available as an accessory. Throughout this guide, an MX3X without RFID capability is labeled “MX3X”. The MX3X with an RFID Module and capability is labeled “MX3-RFID”. The MX3P, similar to the MX3-RFID in form but without RFID capability, is labeled “MX3X”. User and technical information specific to one over another is labeled appropriately in this guide. If there is no distinction between directions for the user with an MX3X or MX3P and a user with a MX3-RFID mobile device, the instruction or information in this guide is the same for all unless noted. Note: Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the mobile device is always drawing power from the main and backup batteries (On).

8 Quick Start MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F Quick Start Important If the mobile device has AppLock installed, please refer to “MX3X Reference Guide”, “AppLock” for setup and processing information before continuing. Note: When your mobile device is pre-configured, the radio, PCMCIA card and endcaps are assembled by LXE to your specifications. This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new system is pre-configured and requires only accessory installation (e.g. handstrap, stylus) and a power source. LXE recommends that installation or removal of accessories be performed on a clean, well-lit surface. When necessary, protect the work surface, the mobile device, and components from electrostatic discharge. This guide takes you through an introduction to and operation of the MX3X with and without the RFID module/enclosure. In general, the sequence of events is: 1. Insert a fully charged battery and press the Power button. 2. Connect an external power source to the unit (if required). 3. If the screen does not automatically display, press the Power button. 4. Adjust screen display, audio volume and other parameters if desired. Note: Do not connect a tethered scanner cable to a USB-C or USB-H labeled endcap port. These ports cannot power a tethered scanner. Troubleshooting Can’t align the screen, change the date/time or adjust the volume. AppLock is installed and running on the mobile device. AppLock restricts access to the control panels. Contact your System Administrator. Touchscreen is not accepting stylus taps or need recalibration. Press <Ctrl>+<Esc> to force the Start Menu to appear. Use the tab, backtab and cursor keys to move the cursor from element to element. About Lithium-Ion Batteries Li-Ion batteries (like all batteries) gradually lose their capacity over time (in a linear fashion) and never just stop working. This is important to remember – this mobile device is always ‘on’ even when in the Suspend state and draws battery power at all times. Use the Start | Settings | Control Panel | Power | Battery tab to check the battery status and power reading. Always replace the used main battery with a fully charged main battery. The Battery Low Warning LED illuminates red at approximately 35% of power left in the main battery. You need to determine the point at which battery life becomes unacceptable for your business practices and replace the main battery before that point. Note: Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the mobile device is always drawing power from the batteries (On). For FCC Review - Draft 02 - Not for Distribution
RFID Introduction 9 E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F MX3X User’s Guide RFID Introduction Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is a generic term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify individual items. The individual items identified/read by a RFID reader contain a tag (also known as an electronic label or transponder). Unlike barcodes that must be read by a beam passing over the barcode, RFID tags do not have to be in the line of sight of the reader before the reader can collect the data from the tag but they do need to be within the established reading range of the RFID-module. See the “MX3X Reference Guide” for further information and configuration. RFID Reader Scan Range Type of Tag Scan Range Class 0 Tag 2 feet / .7 meters Class 1 Tag 3 feet / .9 meters Figure 10 RFID Tag Reading Ranges Unlike barcode scanners that require line-of-sight before successfully reading a barcode, the RFID reader does not require line-of-sight when searching for and reading tags. Pressing the RFID Read button on the MX3-RFID starts a 360 degree search “beam” that stops at the limits of the scan range of the RFID reader. The “beam” stops searching when the read timer expires. Integrated Laser Scanner The integrated laser barcode scanner can only read barcodes. Tethered laser barcode scanners can only read barcodes. The MX3-RFID cannot read barcode labels and RFID labels at the same time. For example, the MX3-RFID can scan a barcode label and when the good read/bad read/store data process is complete, it is then free to begin the process of reading and storing the data from an RFID tag. The RFID module can only read RFID tags. • COM1 is the RFID module. • COM3 is the integrated barcode scanner. RFID and MX3P Devices and the MX3 Cradles The MX3-RFID and MX3P devices do not fit in the standard MX3 powered cradles. There is a passive vehicle cradle available for the MX3-RFID and MX3P devices that secures the device to the cradle only. See section titled “Accessories”. Main battery charging and host communication is not available directly through the passive vehicle cradle. The passive vehicle cradle does not have LEDs or indicators. It does not accept DC power connection. The MX3-RFID and MX3P mobile devices can be directly connected to external power through the power jack located on the mobile device’s endcap. Host communication is available wirelessly while the mobile device is secured in the passive vehicle cradle. For FCC Review - Draft 02 - Not for Distribution
10 Insert Main Battery MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F Insert Main Battery Press the Power button after the battery is inserted into the battery compartment. Note: New batteries must be charged prior to first use. This process takes up to four hours in an LXE Multi-Charger Plus and eight hours with an external power source connected to the power jack on the endcap of the mobile device. Figure 11 Battery Contacts in Battery Compartment The Main Battery compartment is located at the bottom of the back of the computer. The arrows in the figure titled “Battery Contacts” point to the battery contacts in the computer. The figure titled “Main Battery” show the cradle and charger contacts on the back of the main battery. Figure 12 Main Battery Place the battery in the compartment, making sure the side of the battery with six contacts matches up with the battery contacts in the computer battery compartment. Do not slide the battery sideways into the compartment. Firmly press the battery into the compartment until the Retaining Clip on the battery clicks. The battery is now securely fastened to the computer. The computer draws power from the battery immediately upon successful connection. Note: Do not cover the vent aperture in the battery well (located in the left side of the battery well) with anything other than the main battery. Check Battery Status Tap the Start | Settings | Control Panel | Power icon. Main and backup battery level, status and Power Scheme timeout setting options are displayed.

Enter Data 25 E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F MX3X User’s Guide Enter Data You can enter data into the mobile device through several different methods. The Scanner window accepts barcode data entry, the RS-232 and the IR port are used to input/output data, and the keypad and stylus provide manual entry. The RFID module can either read or read and write data. Keypad Entry The keypad is used to manually input data that is not collected otherwise. Almost any function that a full sized computer keyboard can provide is duplicated on the mobile device’s keypad but it may take a few more keystrokes to accomplish a keyed task. Almost every key has two or three different functions. The primary alpha or numeric character is printed on the key. For example, when the 2nd key is pressed, the 2nd key LED illuminates. By then pressing the desired second-function key the device will then produce the 2nd character. The specific 2nd character is printed above the corresponding key. The 2nd key LED turns off when key sequence finishes (unless when setting volume or contrast – the 2nd key LED will flash at those times). Please refer to “Appendix A - Key Maps” for instruction on the specific keypresses to access all keypad functions. Stylus Entry The stylus performs the same function as a mouse that is used to point to and click elements on a desktop computer. The stylus is used in the same manner as a mouse – single tap or double tap to select menu options, drag the stylus across text to select, hold the stylus down to activate slider bars, etcetera. Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the display. Never use an actual pen, pencil, sharp or abrasive object to write on the touchscreen. Hold the stylus as if it were a pen or pencil. Touch an element on the screen with the tip of the stylus then remove the stylus from the screen. The touchscreen responds to an actuation force (touch) of 4 oz. (or greater) of pressure. The stylus can be used in conjunction with the keyboard and scanner and an input/output device connected to one of the serial ports. • Touch the stylus to the field of the data entry form to receive the next data feed. • The cursor begins to flash in the field. • The unit is ready to accept data from either the keyboard, integrated scanner or a scanner connected to the serial port, if the scanner applet is configured correctly.

Batteries 43 E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-F MX3X User’s Guide Batteries Note: New batteries must be charged prior to use. If the main battery and backup battery are depleted, the computer reverts to factory default values. RF configuration parameters will need to re-entered when the depleted main battery is replaced. The backup battery is eventually recharged by the main battery. The mobile device is designed to work with a Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) battery from LXE. Under normal conditions it should last approximately eight to ten hours before requiring a recharge. The more you use the scanner or the RF transmitter, the shorter the time required between battery recharges. The operating system keeps date and time valid for a minimum of four days using a fully charged backup battery and a main battery that has reached the Low Warning point. Main Battery The main battery has a rugged plastic enclosure that is designed to withstand the ordinary rigors of an industrial environment. Exercise care when transporting the main battery making sure it does not come in contact with excessive heat or any power source other than an LXE MultiCharger or the mobile device. Backup Battery The internal Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) backup battery provides power to the device for a short amount of time when the main battery has been depleted, removed or has failed. The backup battery requires no user intervention. Replacement is performed by LXE. Note: An uninterrupted external power source (wall AC adapters or DC/DC converters) transfers power to the computer’s internal charging circuitry which, in turn, recharges the main battery and backup battery. Frequent connection to an external power source is recommended to maintain backup battery charge status. Battery Hot-Swapping When the battery power level is low, the BATT-M LED illuminates and remains on. You can replace the main battery without shutting the device off.
