Cold Storage Battery

Cold Storage Battery Label (L) and Standard MX7 Tecton Battery Label (R)
There is no change in the way the Cold Storage battery is inserted into and removed from the MX7 Tecton battery well. See the
section in the MX7 Tecton User Guide titled Inserting Fully Charged Battery for instruction.
Cold Storage Battery Life – minimum 2.5 hours while the unit is roaming, powered on with ambient temperature -10°C (14°F) or
above, Display backlight turned on, Keypad LED backlight on, radio connected to Access Point, and scanner decoding
barcodes. The LXE Li-Ion main battery (MX7A381BATT) has been designed specifically for the Cold Storage device. This
1250mAh battery has a blue label while the standard MX7 Tecton 2200mAh battery has a white (MX7A380BATT) label.

Snowflake Decal

A Cold Storage device has a snowflake decal between the touchscreen and the keypad. The decal is located to the left when
the mobile device screen is facing forward.

Heating Elements

Heating elements activate when ambient temperature drops below 0°C (32°F). LXE recommends using the stylus when
performing screen touch functions. There may be some condensation as the Cold Storage device moves in and out of cold
storage areas. The condensation on the touchscreen and the scan aperture quickly dissipates.
The touchscreen heating elements and scanner aperture heating elements may be visible when the Cold Storage device is
tilted slightly. No user interaction is required to turn the heating elements on/off. Stylus taps on the touchscreen function
normally. Due to the heating element overlaying the scan aperture, barcode scanning may require the user to move the scan
aperture closer to the barcode for good scan results.
