E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

Introduction

Overview

The LXE® MX3X is a rugged, portable, hand-held Microsoft® Windows® CE .NET 4.2 or CE

5.0 equipped mobile computer capable of wireless data communications. The mobile device can

transmit information using wireless LAN radios with internal antennas or an external remote

mount antenna. 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

wireless 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 installed Windows 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.

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).

Note: A mobile device functioning as a Summit client can run Microsoft Windows CE .NET 4.2

or CE 5.0. Microsoft Windows CE 5.0 is available on a Summit client mobile device only.

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

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.

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.

MX3X seems to lockup as

soon as it is warm booted.

There may be slight delays while the wireless client connects

to the network, authorization for voice-enabled applications

complete, Wavelink Avalanche management of the MX3X

startup completes, and Bluetooth relationships establish or re-

establish. When the desktop appears or an application begins,

the MX3X is ready for use.

10 About Lithium-Ion Batteries

MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J

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).

Insert Main Battery 11

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

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 8 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 shows the cradle and charger contacts on the back of the main battery.

Figure 9 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 (vent aperture is located in the top left

area 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.

12 Optional Devices

MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J

Optional Devices

Attach Handstrap (Optional)

Note: These instructions are not to be used for the MX3P. See Accessories for MX3P holding

accessories e.g. holster mounted, shoulder straps, etc.

Once installed, the elastic handstrap provides a means for the user to secure the computer to their

hand. It is adjustable to fit practically any size hand and does not interfere with battery charging

when the MX3X is in a cradle.

Figure 10 MX3X With Handstrap Installed

Tool Required: #1 Phillips Screwdriver

Installation

1. Place the MX3X, with the screen facing down, on a flat stable surface.

2. Attach the handstrap to the MX3X with the screws and washers provided.

An extra or replacement stylus can be ordered from LXE. See the section titled Accessories for the

stylus part number.

Optional Devices 13

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

Attach to Hip-Flip (Optional)

Note: The MX3P does not fit in the Hip-Flip accessory. The Hip-Flip is not to be used with the

MX3P device. See Accessories for device-specific holding accessories e.g. holster

mounted, shoulder straps, etc.

Figure 11 Hip-Flip Accessory

Note: #1 flat head screwdriver is not supplied by LXE. A waist belt accessory can be ordered

from LXE.

Once the MX3X is attached to the hip-flip and the hip-flip securely fastened to the user by a belt

around their waist, the MX3X can be operated at a convenient height, leaving the user's hands

free.

The hip-flip adjusts downward to allow removing and replacing the main battery without

removing the unit from the hip-flip or the user's body.

The MX3X must be removed from the hip-flip before being placed in a docking station.

Caution: Never use the MX3X in the hip-flip without first securing the device to the hip-flip

with the screws.

Enter Data 27

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J 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.

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.

Touchscreen Display

Figure 27 Touchscreen Display

The Touchscreen Display is an LCD unit capable of supporting VGA graphics modes. Display

size is 640 x 240 pixels. The touchscreen allows signature capture and touch input. A pen stylus is

included. The touchscreen responds to an actuation force (touch) of 4 oz. of pressure (or greater).

There are two types of displays available: transflective greyscale monochrome and transmissive

color. The transmissive color display is optimized for indoor lighting. It cannot be used without

the backlight. The transflective monochrome display is optimized for outdoor use but may also be

used indoors. The monochrome display has an electroluminescent backlight. The color display has

a CCFL (Cold-Cathode Fluorescent Lighting) backlight.

The transflective display appears to have a greenish hue when the display is off. The transmissive

display appears black when the display is off.

Applying the Protective Film to the Display

First, clean the display of fingerprints, lint particles, dust and smudges (see Cleaning the Glass

Display/Scanner Aperture).

Remove the protective film from it’s 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.

Display Backlight

The Display backlight is turned on when the unit returns from Suspend Mode. The display

backlighting feature is programmable and activates based on power source and amount of idle

time before entering the Suspend state.

See the section titled Set the Display Backlight Timer in the previous section Quick Start.

Cleaning the Glass Display/Scanner 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, abrasive 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(R) 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.

Scan Buttons

Figure 29 Programmable Buttons

There are two buttons, one on each side of the display. The buttons can be programmed to perform

specific functions. The programmable keys have no effect on barcode scanners tethered to the

device. When there is no integrated scanner installed, both buttons default to Enter buttons (with

the exception of IBM 5250 terminal emulation devices – in this case, the left button is labelled and

functions as Field Exit).

Note: The programmable Scan key is the Field Exit key when the MX3X is an IBM 5250 /

TN5250 compatible device. It can also be programmed as the RFID Read key for an

MX3-RFID device.

To edit the button parameters, select Start | Settings | Control Panel | Scanner. Change the

parameter values and tap OK to save the changes.

The default setting for the right button on an MX3X (and MX3P) is Enter. The default setting for

the left button is Scan. When the device does not have an integrated scanner, both buttons default

to Enter keys and the Scan selection is greyed out.

Each button can be setup as:

• Disabled – no response when pressed

• Scan – initiate a barcode scan sequence (integrated scanner only)

• Enter Key

• Tab Key

• Field Exit (IBM 5250 / TN5250 devices only)

• Virtual Key (default values F20 and F21)

• RFID Read

40 Touchscreen Display

MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J

Field Exit Key Function (IBM 5250/TN5250 Only)

The Field Exit key is used to exit an input field. If the field is an Auto Enter field, the

auto transmit function is activated. This key function is present on the IBM

5250/TN5250 specific keypad only.

Scan Buttons and the SCNR LED

The SCNR LED, located above the keypad, illuminates during an integrated barcode scanner

function. It is affected by internal scanner algorithms.

• Red - scanning.

• Green - good scan.

• Unlit – laser scanner is inactive.

The Scan buttons have no effect on tethered barcode scanners connected to a serial port. Tethered

scanners read barcode scans only when the trigger on the tethered scanner is pressed. Pressing the

trigger on the tethered scanner has no effect on the device’s Scan buttons.

Note: Refer to the MX3X Reference Guide before programming the Scan / Enter buttons. The

Reference Guide also contains instructions for the Key Map Utility for the keypad.

Endcaps and COM Ports 41

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

Endcaps and COM Ports

The computer supports three COM port options. Two external serial ports are dependent on the

end cap chosen. A third serial port is used to support an infrared transciever (barcode reader). An

additional endcap configuration supports serial and USB slave input/output at 1.5 MBps.

Figure 30 Endcap and COM Ports

The COM 2 port is always the IR port on the back of the mobile device, regardless of the type of

endcap installed. COM 2 can only be accessed when a tethered scanner is connected to the RS-232

port on the cradle, and the MX3X is in the cradle. The cradle does not need to be powered by an

alternate AC or DC power source. Tethered scanners receive power from the mobile device's main

battery.

On the Standard Range Scanner / RS-232 labelled port endcap COM 3 is the Integrated Scanner

port. The integrated barcode scanner scans only when the Scan button is pressed. To edit Scanner

port parameters, select Start | Settings | Control Panel | Scanner. Change the parameter values

and tap OK to save the changes.

On the Dual Serial Port endcap the COM1 port is the serial port on the right side of the endcap

Barcode scanners, tethered to the serial port on a cradle, send ASCII data to the MX3X in the

cradle through the COM2 Port.

Tethered Scanners

Do not connect a tethered scanner cable to a mobile device’s USB-C or USB-H labeled endcap

port. These ports cannot power a tethered scanner. Tethered scanners connect to RS-232-labeled

ports on the endcap and can connect to the RS-232 port on a powered cradle.

The MX3X Scan buttons have no effect on tethered barcode scanners (connected to a serial port).

Tethered scanners read barcode scans only when the trigger on the tethered scanner is pressed. The

tethered scanner requires power on pin 9 of the mobile device’s serial port.

To set the MX3X to use a tethered scanner, select Start | Settings | Control Panel | Scanner |

COM1 (or 2 or 3).

Tap the Power on Pin 9 (+5V) checkbox for the COM port selected. The COM port that accepts

the scanner data can be configured for data rate, parity, stop bits and data bits.

See Also: Section titled Cradles when using a tethered scanner with a powered cradle.

USB Port

The USB port requires a 9-pin to USB cable (available from LXE). The 9-pin port/USB port also

supports serial data transfer (using a null modem cable) and non-host USB I/O at 1.5 Mbps. The

operating system automatically detects the USB cable configuration. Refer to section titled

Accessories in this guide for part numbers for the 9-pin USB cable and the null modem cable.

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

IR Port

Figure 32 IR Port (COM 2)

The InfraRed (IR) port provides a means of transferring information to a device with a similar port

and the proper software. The IR port can be used to communicate with printers or a host computer

with the use of an adapter. The IR Port is specified as COM 2 and is a bi-directional half-duplex

infrared port. It supports the Slow IrDA (Infrared Data Access) PHY Layer standard that allows

communication speeds up to 115k baud.

When sending data through the IR port to another MX3X's IR port, make sure both units are in

close proximity to each other. The IR operating envelope has a distance range of 2 cm (.79 inches)

to 1 meter (3.2 feet) with a viewing angle of 30 degrees.

Refer to the MX3X Reference Guide for complete instructions when sending data through the IR

port.

Note: ActiveSync will transfer files over the RS-232 connector on the cradle. The cradle

performs a file pass through to the IR port on the back of the MX3X. Refer to section

titled Accessories in this guide for part numbers for ActiveSync and cradle cables.

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J 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.

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. Place the device in Suspend and simply

replace the discharged battery with a fully-charged battery. The backup battery will retain data

during a main battery hot-swap for at least five minutes.

Storage Cradles 49

E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J MX3X User’s Guide

Storage Cradles

Note: The MX3 Cradle Reference Guide contains cradle installation and technical information.

There are two types of cradles for the MX3X: a desktop cradle for table top

charging/communication applications and a vehicle mount cradle for vehicle mounted

charging/communication applications.

A passive vehicle cradle is available for the MX3P device. The MX3P accepts power and/or

communication through connections on the endcap only.

The powered cradles give the MX3X the ability to communicate with a host computer and other

equipment. In addition, using wall AC adapters or DC/DC converters, the cradle transfers power

to the internal charging circuitry of the MX3X and, in turn, the operating system recharges the

main battery.

The MX3X can be either on or in Suspend mode while in the cradle. The MX3X can be inserted

and removed from the cradle with one hand.

Cables are available from LXE for connecting the cradle to a printer, a personal computer or a

barcode printer. Tethered scanners (for RS-232 cradle connection) are also available from LXE.

Status LED

An LED indicator on the front of the standard MX3 cradle shows the status of the cradle. When

the indicator is not illuminated, there is no power applied to the cradle.

Cradle Power Amber External power applied to the cradle.

Docked Green Power applied to the cradle and charging connection made with

the MX3X.

IR Active Red IR communication is active.

MX3X User’s Guide E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J

Desktop Cradle for MX3X

Note: LXE recommends the correct Desktop Cradle always be used to store / charge /

communicate with the MX3X. The MX3X Desktop Cradle label is located on the bottom

of the device. The MX3X Desktop cradle Product Number is

MX3RA002DESKCRADLE.

Lower the mobile device straight into the cradle, tilt it forward and then let it rest backward in the

cradle. Ensure that the mobile device is properly seated on the charging contacts. The CHGR LED

will illuminate green when the MX3X is correctly seated in the cradle. The CHGR LED will

illuminate red when the MX3X main battery is being charged (in a cradle connected to an external

power source). To remove the MX3X, tilt the MX3X forward and lift it straight up out of the

cradle.

Note: Do not "slam" or slide the mobile device sideways into the cradle. Damage may result.

Note: The MX3P device does not fit in the MX3 desktop cradle.

Connectors

The Power connector is located on the back of the cradle in the top left hand corner. The cradle

can be powered, if required, by an LXE US AC Adapter or an LXE International AC Adapter.

When powered, the cradle transfers power to the internal charging circuitry of the MX3X allowing

it to recharge the main battery. A powered cradle supports RS-232 and IR communications.

The RS-232 connector is located in the back center of the cradle. When the MX3X is properly

docked, the bi-directional half-duplex transceivers in the MX3X and cradle are aligned through

their IR windows. The half-duplex IR signals from the MX3X are converted to RS-232 signals in

the cradle and available at this connector.

The cradle is powered by either a vehicle's 12V battery or from an approved accessory for vehicles

with higher voltage (24 to 60 VDC) batteries. When powered, the cradle transfers external power

to the MX3X, which in turn, recharges the main battery. A powered cradle allows RS-232 and IR

communication.

The RS-232 connector is located on the back of the cradle below and to the right of the power

connector. When the MX3X is properly docked, the bi-directional half-duplex transceivers in the

MX3X and cradle are aligned through their IR windows. The half-duplex IR signals from the

MX3X are converted to RS-232 signals in the cradle and available at this connector.

Note: ActiveSync will transfer files over the RS-232 connector on the vehicle cradle.

ActiveSync with a Cradle

Annex to DoC for LXE 6816

With regard to the use of external antennas

The LXE 6816 can be equipped with external antennas. The antennas listed have been assessed with the LXE 6816 pursuant to EN

300 328, and therefore meet the definition of ‘dedicated antenna’. The table below lists the maximum output power setting for the

radio module in order to result in a total EIRP of 100mW or less. Any combination of output power and a specific type of antenna

resulting in an EIRP greater than 100mW is illegal for use throughout the Community and is outside the scope of this DoC.

Antennas not listed below are also outside the scope of this DoC.
