MX5 Intrinsically Safe User’s Guide E-EQ-MX5ISOGWW-D

E-EQ-MX5ISOGWW-D MX5 Intrinsically Safe User’s Guide

Introduction

Overview

Note: This user guide is directed toward the LXE® model MX5X with a blue keypad overlay

and a blue I-SAFE label under the speaker at the front of the device. This model is

referred to as the MX5-IS.

This user guide provides safety instructions, warnings, and regulatory compliance information

important for the safe operation and use of the LXE® model MX5 Intrinsically Safe (MX5-IS)

Hand Held Computer within Hazardous Locations. The MX5-IS is an MX5X that has been

designed specifically for use in Hazardous Locations.

Important – LXE manufactures devices physically similar to the MX5 Intrinsically Safe Hand

Held Computer (MX5-IS). Read the sections titled Identify Your Device and Using an MX5-IS in

a Hazardous Location.

The MX5 I-Safe mobile device is distinguished from the standard MX5X by the blue keypad

overlay, the blue I-SAFE label under the speaker at the front of the device and the safety approval

labeling on the back of the MX5-IS device.

The MX5-IS approved for use in Hazardous Locations has the following restrictions:

While the MX5-IS is in a hazardous location DO NOT

• Connect an external AC/DC power source to the MX5-IS.

• Connect a USB device or audio jack to the MX5-IS.

• Remove or install a Main Battery pack in the MX5-IS.

• Connect a tethered scanner to the MX5-IS.

• Connect the MX5 Belt Battery System to the MX5-IS.

• Place the MX5-IS in a powered docking cradle.

The MX5-IS is a rugged, portable, hand-held Microsoft® Windows® CE .NET 4.2 or CE 5.0

equipped mobile computer capable of wireless data communications. The MX5-IS can transmit

information using a 2.4GHz radio (with dual internal antennas) and it can store information for

later transmission using an RS-232 serial port, Ethernet, RF, IRDA or a USB port.

The MX5-IS is vertically oriented and features backlighting for the display and the keypad. The

touch-screen display supports graphic features and icons that the Windows operating system

supports. A stylus is attached to the MX5-IS to assist in entering data and configuring the unit.

The MX5-IS is powered by a 2800 mAh Lithium-Ion main battery pack and an internal backup

battery.

Important:

Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the MX5-IS is always drawing

power from the batteries (On). The MX5-IS is to be used with the LXE power supply (LXE P/N

MX5A305PSACUS / MX5A305PSACWW).

Quick Start 7

E-EQ-MX5ISOGWW-D MX5 Intrinsically Safe User’s Guide

Quick Start

Note: When your MX5-IS is pre-configured, the wireless client, flash card and scanner are

programmed by LXE to your specifications. The sequence of steps in Quick Start must

also be completed when the device returns from a Cold Reset and when a new OS

version is loaded. The wireless client, flash card, virtual keyboard and scanner

parameters may also need to be reset after a cold reset.

This section's instructions are based on the assumption that your new mobile device is pre-

configured and requires only accessory installation (e.g. hand strap) and a power source. This

guide takes you through an introduction to and operation of the LXE MX5-IS. LXE recommends

that installation or removal of accessories be performed on a clean, well-lit surface. When

necessary, protect the work surface, MX5-IS, and components from electrostatic discharge.

In general, the sequence of events is:

Windows CE .NET 4.2

MX5-IS Desktop CE Indication

1. Insert a fully charged battery. (Always put a fully charged battery in the MX5-IS at the

beginning of the shift or workday.)

2. Connect an external power source to the unit (if available).

3. If the screen does not automatically display, tap the Power key.

4. Press < N > when the message Update Micro/Boot? Y/N (timer countdown) is displayed,

or, let the timer count down.

5. Calibrate the touchscreen.

After all files are loaded and the Desktop is displayed, adjust audio volume and other parameters

if desired. If needed, change the Time and Date from it’s default value by tapping the

|

Settings | Control Panel | Date/Time icon.

Windows CE 5.0

MX5-IS Desktop CE Indication

1. Insert a fully charged battery. (Always put a fully charged battery in the MX5-IS at the

beginning of the shift or workday.)

2. If the screen does not automatically display, tap the Power key.

3. Calibrate the touchscreen.

After all files are loaded and the Desktop is displayed, adjust audio volume and other parameters

if desired.

Panel | Date/Time icon.

8 Quick Start

MX5 Intrinsically Safe User’s Guide E-EQ-MX5ISOGWW-D

Start-up Troubleshooting

Can’t align the screen,

change the date/time or

adjust the volume.

AppLock is installed and running on the mobile device. AppLock restricts user

access to the control panels. See the MX5X Reference Guide for AppLock

setup and processing information..

RFTerm® opens and

runs upon each cold

reset and warm reset.

Tap File | Exit to close the RFTerm application. RFTerm runs by default after

rebooting.

Touch screen won’t

accept stylus taps.

Touchscreen may have been disabled or the touchscreen may require

recalibration. Hold down the Power key and the Orange key for 4+ seconds to

warmboot the device. Force the Start menu to appear by pressing the right

arrow key and the Blue key to access Start button options, then use the arrow

keys to select menu options (e.g. Start | Settings ).

To set up the integrated scanner barcode reading parameters, please refer to the Integrated

Scanner Programming Guide on the LXE Manuals CD or the LXE ServicePass web page. Your

device may have an integrated SE1223, SE1224 or SE2223 scan engine.

Important Battery Information

Important: If the main battery has been out of the MX5-IS for an extended period of time or

becomes fully discharged or dead, a fully charged backup battery will last for up

to 24 hours. If this happens, the device will cold reset the next time power is

applied from either AC power or a charged main battery. A cold reset will cause

loss of data and custom programs. Always store unused devices with a fully

charged main battery pack installed. The MX5-IS requires periodic connection to

an external power source to maintain an optimum backup battery charged status.

• Until the main battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the MX5-IS is always

drawing power from the batteries (On).

• New batteries must be fully charged prior to use.

• Whenever possible, use the AC power adapter with the MX5-IS to conserve the main

battery and recharge the backup battery.

• When a new battery is installed in the MX5-IS for the first time (or when the backup

battery is completely depleted), the Time and Date reverts to it’s default values.

Li-Ion Battery

When disposing of the MX5-IS main battery, the following precautions should be observed: The

battery should be disposed of properly. The battery should not be disassembled or crushed. The

battery should not be heated above 212°F (100°C) or incinerated.
