Bluetooth

Bluetooth
The MX9 contains Bluetooth version 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) up to 3.0 Mbit/s over the air. Bluetooth device
connection (or pairing) can occur at distances up to 32.8 ft (10 meters) Line of Sight. The wireless client retains network
connectivity while Bluetooth is active.
The user will not be able to select PIN authentication or encryption on connections to or from the MX9. However, the MX9
supports authentication requests from pairing devices. If a pairing device requests authentication or encryption, the MX9
displays a prompt for the PIN or passcode. Maximum encryption is 128 bit. Encryption is based on the length of the user's
passcode.
The Bluetooth hardware in the MX9 allows simultaneous connection to two LXE Bluetooth peripherals using the LXEZ Pairing
control panel application.
Bluetooth device connection supported on the MX9 includes:
Bluetooth scanners / imagers
l
Zebra printer models
l
LXE Back of Hand Scanner

Barcode data captured by the Bluetooth scanner is manipulated by the settings in the MX9
control panel.
Multiple beeps may be heard during a barcode scan using a mobile Bluetooth scanner; beeps from the mobile Bluetooth
scanner as the barcode data is accepted/rejected, and other beeps from the MX9 during final barcode data manipulation.
