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 touchscreen 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.

Quick Start
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.
2.
3.
4.
Insert a fully charged battery and press the Power button.
Connect an external power source to the unit (if required).
If the screen does not automatically display, press the Power button.
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 + to force the Start Menu to appear. Use
the tab, backtab and cursor keys to move the cursor from

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 reestablish. When the desktop appears or an application begins,
the MX3X is ready for use.

About Lithium-Ion Batteries
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:
MX3X User’s Guide
Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the mobile device is
always drawing power from the batteries (On).
E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J
Insert Main Battery
11
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.

If the mobile device is in the cradle, it can be either On or in Suspend Mode during this
process.
Turn the Power Supply toggle switch to the Off position.
While observing the fuse requirements specified above, connect the power cable as close as
possible to the actual battery terminals of the vehicle. When available, always connect to
unswitched terminals in the vehicle fuse panel, after providing proper fusing.
IMPORTANT:
For uninterrupted power, electrical supply connections should not be made at any point
after the ignition switch of the vehicle.
4.
Route the cable the shortest way possible. The input cable from the connection to the battery
is rated for a maximum temperature of 60°C (140°F). When routing this cable it should be
protected from physical damage and from surfaces which might exceed this temperature.
Additionally do not expose the cable to chemicals or oil that may cause the wiring insulation
to deteriorate.
Note:
If the vehicle is equipped with a panel containing Silicon Controlled Rectifiers
(SCR's), avoid routing the power cable in close proximity to these devices.
Always route the cable so that it does not interfere with the driver’s safe operation and
maintenance of the vehicle.
Use proper electrical and mechanical fastening means for terminating the cable. Properly
sized "crimp" type electrical terminals are an accepted method of termination.

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.

Bluetooth module is connected to one or more of the targeted Bluetooth
device(s).
MX3X is not connected to any Bluetooth device.
MX3X is ready to connect with any Bluetooth device.
MX3X is out of range of all paired Bluetooth device(s). Connection is inactive.
Note:
When an active paired device, not the MX3X, enters Suspend Mode, is turned Off or
leaves the MX3X Bluetooth scan range, the Bluetooth connection between the linked
device and the MX3X is lost. There may be audible or visual signals as paired devices
disconnect from the MX3X. The Bluetooth remote device should be as close as possible,
in direct line of sight, with the MX3X during the pairing process.
Notes
•
•
•
•
The MX3X does not have a Bluetooth managed LED.
The LED on the Bluetooth scanner illuminates during a scanning operation; the Scan LED
on the MX3X does not illuminate.
Barcode data captured by the Bluetooth scanner is manipulated by the settings in the
MX3X Scanner Properties control panel applet.
Multiple beeps may be heard during a barcode scan using the Bluetooth scanner; beeps
from the Bluetooth scanner as the barcode data is accepted/rejected, and other beeps from
the MX3X during final barcode data manipulation.
See Accessories for supported Bluetooth printers and scanners.
AppLock, if installed, does not stop the end-user from using the Bluetooth application, nor does it
stop authorized Bluetooth-enabled devices from pairing with the MX3X while AppLock is in
control. See the MX3X Reference Guide for more Bluetooth information.

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.

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

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.

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:
E-EQ-MX3XOGWW-J
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.

Key Functions
Key
Function
Scan
(Scanner integrated into endcaps only.) The Scan key activates the scanner when a
scanner endcap is installed and the Scan button is pressed. The internal scanner scans
only when the Scan button is pressed. A Scan button press has no effect on externally
attached scanners.
When there is no integrated scanner endcap, the Scan keys function as Enter keys.
For IBM 5250 configurations, the left button is the Field Exit key.
Enter
The Enter key is used to confirm a forms entry or to transmit information. How it is
used is determined by the application running on the computer.
2nd
The 2nd key is used to activate the 2nd functions of the keypad. Printed on many keys
at the upper left corner are small characters that represent the 2nd function of that key.
Using the 2nd key activates the second key function. Note that the 2nd key only stays
active for one keystroke. Each time you need to use the 2nd function you must press
the 2nd key. To cancel a 2nd function before pressing another key, press the 2nd key
again.
When the 2nd function is active, the 2nd LED illuminates.
Ctrl
The Ctrl key enables the control functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a
regular keyboard’s Control key. Note that the Ctrl key only stays active for one
keystroke. Each time you need to use a Ctrl function, you need to press the Ctrl key
before pressing the desired key.
When the Ctrl function is active, the Ctrl LED illuminates.
Alt
The Alt key enables the alternate functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a
regular keyboard’s Alt key. Note that the Alt key only stays active for one keystroke.
Each time you need to use an alternate function, you need to press the Alt key before
pressing the desired key.
When the Alt function is active, the Alt LED illuminates.

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. 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
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.

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.
