This mobile device’s backup battery maintains it’s charge by drawing power from the
main battery pack. Always store unused devices with a fully charged main battery pack
installed. LXE recommends an in-use mobile device be frequently connected to an
external power source to maintain optimum power levels in the main battery pack and the
backup battery. When the backup battery and main battery pack are dead, the mobile
device reverts to the last saved setup defaults when a fully charged main battery pack is
installed and the device is powered On again.
| Settings | Control Panel | Battery tab.
Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the MX8 is always
drawing power from the batteries (On).
New batteries must be fully charged prior to use.
Whenever possible, use the AC power adapter with the MX8 to conserve the main battery
and recharge the backup battery.
Ni-MH backup battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel.

In Brief . . .
Note:
When your mobile device is pre-configured, the client, keypad and scan aperture
configurations are assembled by LXE to your specifications. The desktop will display a
Summit Client Utility icon.
This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new device is pre-configured and
requires only accessory installation (e.g. 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.
In general, the sequence of events is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Insert a fully charged battery. (Always put a fully charged battery in the mobile device at the
beginning of the shift or workday.)
Connect an external power source to the unit (if available).
If the screen does not automatically display, tap the Power key.
Calibrate the touchscreen.
A white screen will appear during the boot process until all CAB files and applications are
loaded and installed. Radio setup screens may appear and disappear while files are loading.
After all files are loaded and the Microsoft Windows CE Desktop is displayed, adjust audio
volume and other parameters if desired.

Press the Power key after the battery is inserted into the MX8.
Note:
On first use the MX8 batteries should be charged with an external power source (i.e. AC
Adapter) – 5 hours for the main battery and 7 hours for the backup battery. New main
battery packs alone must be charged prior to first use – this process takes up to five
hours in an LXE Multi-Charger.
Figure 12 Lithium Polymer Battery Pack
The MX8 Battery Compartment is located at the bottom of the back of the computer. The main
battery functions as the battery well cover.
Place the battery in the battery well, making sure the tab on the bottom of the battery pack fits into
the slot at the bottom end of the battery well. Push the battery down into the battery well until the
tab clicks into place and the battery pack is secure in the battery well.
The backup battery is trickle-charged by the main battery. Whenever possible, use the AC power
adapter with the MX8 to conserve the main battery and charge the backup battery.
The Status LED indicates battery condition. It is steady red when the main battery is Low. When
the battery has sufficient energy the Status LED is unlit. The Battery control panel displays main
and backup battery charging and power status ( | Settings | Control Panel | Battery).

The following chart is an approximation. Actual battery capacity varies based on usage, ambient
temperature and peripherals drawing power from the MX8:
100% capacity

2800 mAh minimum
2280 mAh minimum
Deciding when to put a fully charged main battery pack in the MX8 is difficult to quantify because
it is very application specific. 2000 mAh may be the cutoff for one customer who uses the mobile
device frequently, while 1500 mAh may be perfectly fine for a customer who occasionally uses
the mobile device. You need to determine the point at which battery life becomes unacceptable for
your business practices and replace the main battery pack before that point.
Tapping the Power Key
Note:
Refer to the section titled Power Modes in the MX8 Reference Guide for information
relating to the power states of the MX8.
Important:
Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the
MX8 is always drawing power from the batteries (On).
The Power key is located at the bottom of the keypad. When a battery is inserted in the MX8 for
the first time press the Power key.
Tapping the Power key places the MX8 immediately in Suspend mode.

Entering Data
For Review - Preliminary - Draft 01 - Not for distribution
You can enter data into the MX8 through several different methods. The scanner aperture provides
barcode data entry, the I/O port is used to input/output data, and the keypad provides manual (or
keyed) data entry.
Mobile devices with a touchscreen use a stylus to input data, the I/O port and/or the keypad. An
input panel (virtual keyboard) is available in applications that expect keyed input.
Using the Keypad
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 MX8 keypad but it may take a few
more keystrokes to accomplish a keyed task. Please refer to Appendix A – Key Maps for
instruction on the specific keypresses to access all keypad functions.
Almost every key has two or three different functions. The primary alpha or numeric character is
printed on the key.
The Orange or Blue keys are pressed when you want to use a “sticky” key function. For example,
when you press a Blue or Orange key (the sticky key), then press the key that has the desired
second-function key, the second-function key is the “active” key. The specific sticky character is
printed above the corresponding key in either Orange or Blue.
Using the Input Panel or Virtual Keyboard
The virtual keyboard is always available when needed e.g. text field input. Tap the keyboard icon
at the bottom of the screen to put the virtual keyboard on the display. Using the stylus:

Cleaning the Glass Display/Beam Aperture
Note:
These instructions are for components made of glass. If there is a removable protective
film sheet on the display screen, remove the film sheet before cleaning the screen.
Keep fingers and rough or sharp objects away from the scan aperture and display. If the glass
becomes soiled or smudged, clean only with a standard household cleaner such as Windex®
without vinegar or use Isopropyl Alcohol. Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based
cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the glass surface. Use a clean, damp, lint-free
cloth. Do not scrub optical surfaces. If possible, clean only those areas which are soiled.
Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air.
Applying the Protective Film to the Display
First, clean the display of fingerprints, lint particles, dust and smudges.
Remove the protective film from its container. Remove any protective backing from the film sheet
by lifting the backing from a corner of the film. Discard the backing.
Apply the film to the screen starting at one side and smoothing it across the display. If air bubbles
appear, raise the film slightly and continue smoothing the film across the display until it covers the
glass surface of the display.
If dust, lint or smudges are trapped between the protective film and the glass display, remove the
protective film, clean the display and apply the protective film again.

The Sticky Key feature allows the user to activate multi-keypress combinations with one finger.
Ctrl (Control key)
A Control sticky keypress stays active until the Control key is pressed again. The Control
key enables the control functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular keyboard’s
Control key. Each time you need to use a Control function, you need to press the Ctrl key before
pressing the desired key.
Alt (Alternate key)
An Alt sticky keypress stays active until the Alt key is pressed again. The Alt key enables
the alternate functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular keyboard’s Alt key. Each
time you need to use an alternate function, you need to press the Alt key before pressing the
desired key.
Shft (Shift key)
A Shift keypress ends a sticky key function. The Shft key enables the shifted functions of
the keypad. This function is similar to a regular keyboard’s Shift key. Note that the Shift key only
stays active for one keystroke. Each time you need to use a Shifted function, you need to press the
Shft key before pressing the desired key.
When the Shft key is pressed the next key is determined by the major key legends, i.e., the alpha
keys display lower case letters -- when CAPS is On alpha characters are capitalized. For example,
when CAPS is On and the Shft key and the G key are pressed, a lower case g is displayed.
Orange and Blue Keys
The Orange and Blue keys are sticky keys that, when tapped, activate the second
functions of the keypad. Printed above many keys are small characters, in either orange (on the left
side of the key) or blue (on the right side of the key), that represent the second function of that
key. Using the sticky key activates the second key function.
Note that the blue and orange sticky keys only stay active for one keystroke. Each time you need
to activate a second function you must press the Orange or Blue key. To cancel a sticky key
function before pressing another key, press the same sticky key again.
Orange Key
Tap the Orange key to enter “orange” mode. Tap it again to cancel “orange” mode. If you were in
“blue” mode before you pressed the Orange key, blue mode is cancelled and you enter Orange
mode.

The backup battery is charged by the main battery pack only.
Recharging maintains the battery near full charge at all times. If the backup battery is completely
discharged, it may take up to 5 hours to recharge. The capability to discharge the backup battery is
provided to allow the user to condition the battery in order to recover fully backup batttery
capacity.
Backup battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel. The backup battery
has a minimum 2 years service life.
Note:
An uninterrupted external power source (wall AC adapters) 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, if feasible, is
recommended to maintain backup battery charge status as the backup battery cannot be
recharged by a dead or missing main battery.
Battery Hotswapping
Important: When the backup battery power is Low or Very Low ( | Settings | Control Panel |

Passive Vehicle Mount Cradle
For Review - Preliminary - Draft 01 - Not for distribution
A passive vehicle mount cradle is available for the MX8. The cradle restrains the MX8. The
passive cradle does not have an external device connector e.g. power/RS-232 cable. Wireless
client interaction is available as long as the mobile device has sufficient energy in the MX8 main
battery pack and a clear signal path.
The cradle is lined with strips of hook-and-loop fabric to ensure a snug fit between the MX8 and
the inside of the cradle.
The vehicle cradle should be mounted in an area in the vehicle where it:
•
Does not obstruct the driver’s vision or safe vehicle operation.
•
Will be protected from rain or inclement weather.
•
Will be protected from extremely high concentrations of dust or wind-blown debris.
•
Can be easily accessed by a user seated in the driver’s seat.
There are two mounting options for the cradle:
•
U-bracket mounting
•
RAM ball cylinder mounting
Before installation begins, verify you have the applicable vehicle mounting bracket assembly
components necessary for your mount type, as shown in the section titled “Assembly
Components”.
Do not slide the MX8 into the passive cradle until the cradle is securely fastened to the
vehicle.

Introduction
Remember :
“Sticky” keys are also known as “second” function keys.
Ctl/Ctrl, Alt, Shft, Blue and Orange keys are “sticky keys”. Sticky keys do not need
to be held down before pressing the next (or desired) key. It is valid to use
combined modifiers on specific keys.
Note:
The key mapping in this appendix relates to the physical keypad. See section titled Input Panel for the
Virtual (or Soft) Keypad used with the stylus.
32-Key Numeric-Alpha Keypad
When using a sequence of keys that require an alpha key, first press the Alph key. Use the Shft sticky key or the
Caps key sequence (Blue+Tab) for upper case alphabetic characters.
Pressing the Alph key forces “Alpha” mode for the 2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 9 keys. The 1 and 0 keys continue to place a 1
and 0 into the text field.
To create a combination of numbers and letters before pressing Enter, remember to tap the Alph key to toggle
between Alpha and Numeric mode.
When using a sequence of keys that do not include the Alph key but does include a sticky key, press the sticky key
first then the rest of the key sequence.
