Software Applications

The following applications are included:

ActiveSync
ActiveSync is pre-loaded on all Windows devices. Using Microsoft ActiveSync you can copy files from your MX7 Tecton to
your desktop or laptop (host computer) and back again. After an ActiveSync relationship (partnership) has been estab-
lished with a host computer, ActiveSync will automatically startup each time the MX7 Tecton is cabled to the host computer.
Bluetooth (Optional)
Only installed on a Bluetooth equipped MX7 Tecton. The System Administrator can Discover and Pair targeted Bluetooth
devices for each MX7 Tecton using the Bluetooth control panel. The System Administrator can enable / disable Bluetooth
settings and assign a Computer Friendly name for each MX7 Tecton.
The Bluetooth control panel can also be opened by double-tapping the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar or on the desktop.

RFTerm (Optional)

Installed by Honeywell. The application can also be accessed by double clicking the RFTerm desktop icon or by opening
the RFTerm application in the Programs folder.

Avalanche

The Wavelink Avalanche Enabler installation file is pre-loaded on the MX7 Tecton; however, the device is not configured to
launch the installation file automatically. The installation application must be run manually the first time Avalanche is used.
Following installation, the Wavelink Avalanche Enabler will be an auto-launch application. This behavior can be modified by
accessing the Avalanche Update Settings panel through the Enabler Interface.

Software Development

The CE API Programming Guide documents CE API calls for the MX7 Tecton. It is intended as an addition to the standard
Microsoft Windows CE API documentation.
