    TCP/IP and PPP network protocols. The Flash is configured as the primary boot device. The mobile device has one Secure Digital card (SD) slot. The MX6 supports and auto detects up to 256MB of memory. SD cards are neither installed nor supported by LXE.
  • Page 53: Secure Digital Cards

    Anti-static protection is required when installing/removing cards. (Not supplied by LXE) • If you anticipate keeping a card out of the MX6 for a long period of time place it in a static-free storage container. Store in an area that is protected from dirt, moisture, and electrostatic contact.
  • Page 54: Com Ports

    The docking cradle must be powered by an alternate AC or DC power source to enable communication. The COM 3 / 6 port is always the IR port on the left side of the MX6. It is accessed as COM3 for Raw Infrared communication and as COM 6 for Infrared communication using IrDA protocol.
  • Page 55: Rs-232 Serial Port

    Serial connection is made through an RS-232 Port designated as COM port 1. The connector is a custom, industrial 17-pin male connector. When seated in powered docking cradles, the MX6 receives power through this connection and the main battery is charged. If the docking cradle is connected to a desktop / laptop computer, this connector also transmits data.
  • Page 56: Integrated Imager Or Scanner

    Integrated Imager or Scanner The MX6 has an integrated imager or an integrated laser scanner. The type of laser scanner engine is documented on the label inside the battery well. When there is no laser scanner engine listed, the MX6 has an integrated imager. Please refer to the “MX6 User’s Guide” for instruction.

    The more you use the scanner or the RF transmitter, the shorter the time required between battery recharges. The MX6 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.
  • Page 68: Handling Batteries Safely

    If the backup battery depletes before a fully charged main battery can be inserted, the MX6 performs a hard reset. Programs and data in RAM is lost. Press the Power key to turn the MX6 On after the hard reset.
  • Page 69: Low Battery Warning

    The Low Battery Warning will transition to Suspend before the computer powers off. Backup Battery The MX6 has a backup battery that is designed to provide limited-duration electrical power in the event of main battery pack failure. The backup battery is a 3.6V NiMH battery that is factory installed in the unit.
