E-EQ-HX2OGWW-A HX2 User’s Guide
Introduction
Overview
The LXE® HX2 is a small, lightweight mobile computer designed to be worn on a person’s arm
or waist. The HX2 is most useful for applications that require computational support while the
user's hands are actively engaged with the physical environment, including piece picking to carts,
containers or conveyers; case picking; parcel moves; and broken case activities.
The armbands that secure both the unit and its battery keeps the HX2 in the ready position at all
times by preventing the unit from rotating around the wearer’s arm. The adaptable armbands can
be worn close to the elbow or near the wrist.
The primary data inputs are a keypad or a ring scanner. The HX2 is voice ready. Voice can also be
used as an input with 3rd party software. Output is presented using the screen display or audio
feedback generated by the mobile device and delivered through an internal speaker or audio
headset.
The HX2 is powered by a tethered low profile, light and unobtrusive battery. The entire HX2
wearable computer system features breakaway connections at multiple points and a low-profile,
smooth design to resist snagging on common warehouse fixtures and equipment.
The HX2 has a Microsoft® Windows®
CE 5.0 operating system with an
Intel® XScale® PXA255 CPU. The
HX2 supports an 802.11b/g WLAN
radio and Bluetooth® 2.0+EDR radio.
Connectors are available which
interface with peripherals such as a
Ring Scanner (1D Laser and 2D
Imager Ring Scanner), an audio
headset, a docking/charging cradle and
a tethered battery (see Components for
port locations).
The QVGA color display with a touch
panel has a diagonal viewing area of
2.5” (6.3 cm) in landscape orientation.
The display backlight brightness can
be adjusted using a series of
keypresses. The keypad backlight can
be either on or off. The 23 key keypad has a Power key, alphanumeric keys, function keys, cursor
control keys, and Blue, Alpha, Enter, and Backspace keys.
The HX2 hip flip holster, voice case, rubber boot, powered cradle, touchscreen stylus and
protective film for the screen are available from LXE as accessories (see Accessories).
Note: Until the tethered battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the HX2 is always
drawing power from the batteries (On).
Note: If the mobile device has AppLock installed, please refer to the HX2 Reference Guide for
setup and processing information before continuing.

Ring Scanner Warnings and Labels
• Do not look into the ring scanner/imager aperture.
• Do not stare directly into the ring scanner/imager laser beam.
• Do not remove the laser caution labels from the ring scanner/imager.
• Do not connect the ring scanner aperture to any other device.
Caution:
Laser radiation when open. Please read the caution labels.
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Class 2 laser scanners use a low power, visible light diode. As with any very
bright light source, such as the sun, the user should avoid staring directly into
the light beam. Momentary exposure to a Class 2 laser is not known tro be
harmful.

Important Battery Information 3
E-EQ-HX2OGWW-A HX2 User’s Guide
Important Battery Information
Backup Battery -- If the HX2 has been without a power source (connected to a fully charged
tethered battery or docked in a powered cradle) for an extended period of time or if HX2 external
power sources become completely discharged or dead, a fully charged HX2 backup battery will
last for up to 15 minutes. If the backup battery is fully discharged, the HX2 will reset as soon as it
is docked in a powered cradle or connected to a fully charged tethered battery. A reset will cause
loss of data and custom programs in RAM. Always store unused HX2s with a fully charged
tethered battery. If possible, ensure the HX2 is periodically docked in a powered cradle to
maintain an optimum backup battery charged status.
To check battery status tap | Settings | Control Panel | Battery tab.
• Until the tethered battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the HX2 is always
drawing power from the batteries (On).
• New Standard / Extended batteries must be fully charged prior to use.
• Whenever possible, place the HX2 in a powered cradle to conserve tethered battery power and
recharge the backup battery.
• When a new battery is tethered to the HX2 for the first time (or after the backup battery has
been fully depleted), the Time and Date reverts to factory default values.
• Backup battery replacement is performed by LXE.
The HX2 cradle can charge two standard batteries in less than four hours or two extended batteries
in less than 8 hours in the battery wells behind the HX2 docking bay. The cradle requires an
external power source before battery charging can commence.
The HX2 Multi-Charger can charge up to six batteries at the same time. Each charging bay can
accept either battery. The Multi-Charger requires an external power source before
charging/analyzing can occur.
Li-Ion Battery
When disposing of the HX2 tethered batteries, the following precautions should be observed: The
battery should be disposed of properly. The battery should not be disassembled or crushed. The
battery should not be heated above 212°F (100°C) or incinerated.
Caution
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT
TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS.
Attention
II y a danger d’explosion s’il y a remplacement incorrect de la batterie.
Remplacer uniquement avec une batterie du même type ou d’un type
equivalent recommandé par le constructeur. Mettre au rebut les
batteries usagées conformément aux instructions du fabricant.

24 Tapping the Power Key
HX2 User’s Guide E-EQ-HX2OGWW-A
Tapping the Power Key
The Power key is a round button located above the F4 key.
When a battery is connected to the HX2 for the first time press the Power key. The mobile device
begins the startup process. Wait until the Windows CE desktop appears.
Suspend/Resume Mode -- At other times, tapping the Power key places the HX2 immediately in
Suspend Mode. Tapping the Power key again immediately returns the HX2 from Suspend.
Tapping the Touchscreen with a Stylus
Note: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the touchscreen.
Never use an actual pen, pencil, or sharp/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. Firmly press the stylus into the stylus holder when
the stylus is not in use.
Similar to using a mouse to left-click icons on a desktop computer screen, using the stylus to tap
icons on the touchscreen is the basic action that can:
• Open applications

28 Entering Data
HX2 User’s Guide E-EQ-HX2OGWW-A
Entering Data
You can enter data into the HX2 through several different methods. The Ring Scanner aperture
provides barcode data entry, the Input/Output (I/O) ports, the built-in microphone and speaker are
used to input/output data, and the physical and virtual keypads provide text entry.
Mobile devices with a touchscreen use a stylus to input data, devices connected to the I/O ports
and/or the keypad. An input panel (virtual keyboard) is available for applications that expect
keyed input.
Keypad Entry
The keypad is used to manually input data that is not collected otherwise. A subset of desktop PC
full keyboard functions are provided. Other key functions can be obtained using the programmable
key (Blue+Enter), configurable 0 and 1 keys, or by remapping one of the mappable keys.
Please refer to Appendix A – Key Maps for instruction on the unique keypresses to access the
available keyboard functions.
Almost every key on the keypad has two or three different functions. The primary function or
numeric character is printed on the key.
The Alpha or Blue keys are pressed when you want to use a second key function. For example,
when you press the Blue 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 Blue.
Stylus Data Entry
Note: This section is directed to the HX2 daily user. The assumption is that the mobile device
has been configured and the touch screen calibrated by the System Administrator prior to
releasing the HX2 for daily use. The touch screen should be calibrated before initial use.
The stylus performs the same function as the 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.
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 a serial port.
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 physical keypad, virtual keyboard, or the ring
scanner.
Note: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the display. Never use
an actual pen, pencil or sharp/abrasive object to write on the touchscreen.
Place the stylus in the stylus holder when not in use. There is a built in stylus holder on the hip flip
and the armband.

timer has expired and the Suspend timer begins the countdown after the System Idle timer has
expired. When the User Idle timer is set to “Never”, the power scheme timers never place the
device in User Idle, System Idle or Suspend modes (even when the device is idle).
Because of the cumulative effect, and using the Battery Power Scheme Defaults listed above:
• The backlight turns off after 3 seconds of no activity,
• The display turns off after 18 seconds of no activity (15seconds + 3seconds),
• And the device enters Suspend after 5 minutes and 18 seconds of no activity.

Optional Equipment
HX2 Rubber Boot Assembly
The rubber boot is a lightweight, flexible covering for the HX2 housing. The rubber boot cannot
protect the HX2 from destructive, excessive force. It is designed to protect the HX2 housing from
minor, trivial bumps or jostling. The rubber boot does not inhibit tethered devices, cradle docking,
Hip Flip assembly or Armband assembly.
Note: Remove the rubber boot when placing the HX2 in a voice case.
The rubber boot slips over the front and halfway down the sides of the HX2, leaving the touch
screen, keypad, LXE logo and the HX2 logo visible.
Figure 35 HX2 Rubber Boot
Gently stretch the rubber boot over each corner of the front housing until the rubber boot fits
snugly. It can be removed for cleaning, if necessary.
Smaller openings are available in the rubber boot to
• allow access to the cradle connector on the bottom of the HX2
• allow audible signals from the internal speaker to be heard
• and allow audible signals to be sent through the internal microphone.
Protective Film for the Screen 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.
