10. Whenever the MX8 returns from Suspend Mode, all previously paired, live, Bluetooth devices in the vicinity are paired, one at a time, with the MX8. If the devices cannot connect to the MX8 before the re-connect timeout time period expires (default is approximately 20 seconds for each paired device) there is no indication of the continuing disconnect state if Report Failure to Reconnect is disabled.
Note: When an active paired device, not the MX8, enters Suspend Mode, is turned Off or leaves the MX8 Bluetooth scan range, the Bluetooth connection between the paired device and the MX8 is lost. There may be audible or visual signals as paired devices disconnect from the MX8.
Introduction LXE supports several different types of barcode readers. This section describes the interaction and setup for a mobile Bluetooth laser scanner or laser imager connected to the MX8 using Bluetooth functions. • The MX8 must have the Bluetooth hardware and software installed. An MX8 operating system upgrade may be required.
1. Scan the Bluetooth address barcode label, attached to the MX8, with the LXE Bluetooth mobile scanner. 2. If this is the first time the Bluetooth scanner has scanned the MX8 Bluetooth label, the devices are paired. See section titled “Bluetooth Beep and LED Indications”. If the devices do not pair successfully, go to the next step.
Contact LXE Support for assistance. Bluetooth Printer Setup The Bluetooth managed device should be as close as possible, in direct line of sight, with the MX8 during the pairing process. 1. Open the LXEZ Pairing Panel (Start | Settings | Control Panel | Bluetooth).
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 MX8 keypads but it may take a few more keystrokes to accomplish a keyed task. Please refer to “Appendix A – Key Maps” for instruction on the specific key presses to access all keypad functions.
Using the Stylus Note: This section is directed to the MX8 daily user. The assumption is that the mobile device has been configured and the touch panel calibrated by the System Administrator prior to releasing the MX8 for daily use. The touchscreen should be calibrated before initial use.
The Scan Status LED (oval shaped LED below keypad) turns red when the laser beam is on. Following a barcode scan and read the Scan Status LED turns green for two seconds and the MX8 beeps or vibrates, indicating a successful scan. When the scan light is OFF and there is no successful decode then the Scan Status LED turns off and a different beep sequence is heard.

Wireless host/client communications can occur whether the cradle is receiving external power or not as wireless functions draw power from the main battery in the MX8. The cradles are designed to secure an MX8 with or without a protective boot, a handstrap and/or a trigger handle.
Chapter 3 System Configuration Introduction There are several different aspects to the setup and configuration of the MX8. Many of the setup and configuration settings are dependent upon the optional features such as hardware and software installed on the mobile device. The examples found in this chapter are to be used as examples only, because the configuration of your specific MX8 may vary.
Some standard Windows options require an external modem connection. Modems are not available from LXE nor supported by LXE. When you order an MX8 you receive the software files required by the separate programs needed for operation and wireless client communication. The files are loaded by LXE and stored in folders in the mobile device.
The MX8 has a unique 128-bit ID code as required by the CE 5.0 specification. This ID number is generated by the boot loader. This ID code is available in the control panel, and via a Win32 standard API.
The MX8 has the Avalanche Enabler installation files loaded, but not installed, on the mobile device when it is shipped from LXE. The installation files are located in the System folder on CE devices. The installation application must be run manually the first time Avalanche is used. After the installation application is manually run, the Enabler begins normal performance.
The MX8 Desktop appearance is similar to that of a laptop/desktop PC running Windows 2000 or XP. At a minimum, it has the My Device, Internet Explorer, and the Recycle Bin icons that can be tapped with the stylus to access the contents .
