HX3 Reference Guide E-EQ-HX3RG-C
E-EQ-HX3RG-C HX3 Reference Guide
Chapter 1 Introduction
Overview
The LXE
®
HX3 is a small, lightweight wearable voice computer. The HX3 is designed for use
with voice applications while the user's hands are actively engaged with the physical environment,
including piece picking to carts, containers or conveyers; case picking; parcel moves; and broken
case activities.
The HX3 is designed for use in a belt worn voice pouch. A headset provides voice instructions to
the user and the user can respond via voice or an optional ring scanner. A display and
touchscreen are not necessary for operation and are not included in the HX3. The HX3 supports a
limited keyboard designed for use with voice applications.
The HX3 is powered by a tethered low profile, light and unobtrusive battery. The entire HX3
wearable computer system features breakaway connections at multiple points and a low-profile,
smooth design to resist snagging on common warehouse fixtures and equipment.
The HX3 has a Microsoft
®
Windows
®
CE 5.0
operating system with an Intel
®
XScale
®
PXA255
CPU. The HX3 supports an 802.11 WLAN radio and
Bluetooth® 2.0+EDR radio. Connectors are available
which interface with peripherals such as a Ring
Scanner (1D Laser and 2D Imager Ring Scanner), an
audio headset, a docking/charging cradle and a
tethered battery (see Components for port locations).
The HX3 hip flip holster, voice case and powered
cradle are available from LXE as accessories (see
Accessories).
Note: Until the tethered battery and backup battery
are completely depleted, the HX3 is always
drawing power from the batteries (On).
Based on your installed software version and hardware
options, your system may not be exactly the same as
the system described in this section. Contact your LXE
representative for information on the latest upgrades
for your HX3.
2 Overview
HX3 Reference Guide E-EQ-HX3RG-C
When to Use This Guide
As the reference for LXE’s HX3 computer, this guide provides detailed information on its features
and functionality. Use this reference guide as you would any other source book – reading portions
to learn about the HX3, and then referring to it when you need more information about a
particular subject. This guide takes you through all aspects of installation and configuration for
the LXE HX3. Daily operation, installation and safety instructions for the general user are covered
in the HX3 User’s Guide.
This chapter, “Introduction”, describes this reference guide’s structure, describes HX3
components, contains initial setup instruction, briefly describes data entry processes, and explains
how to get help. Bluetooth pairing instruction is included.
Chapter 2 “Physical Description and Layout”, describes the function and layout of the HX3,
controls and connectors. Also describes the power supplies and docking options for the HX3.
Chapter 3 “System Configuration” takes you through the CE 5.0 operating system setup and the
HX3 file structure. The Avalanche Enabler is included.
Chapter 4 “Scanner” describes the function, layout and setup for the LXE Wedge.
Chapter 5 “Wireless Network Configuration” details 2.4GHz wireless client setup.
Configuration for WEP and WPA is included.
Appendix A “Key Maps” describes the keypress sequences for the keypad.
Appendix B “Technical Specifications” lists HX3 technical specifications.
Appendix C “Reference Material” contains parameter programming charts.

E-EQ-HX3RG-C HX3 Reference Guide
Important Battery Information
Backup Battery -- If the HX3 has been without a power source (connected to a fully charged
tethered battery or docked in a powered cradle) for an extended period of time or if HX3 external
power sources become completely discharged or dead, a fully charged HX3 backup battery will
last for up to 15 minutes. If the backup battery is fully discharged, the HX3 will reset as soon as it
is docked in a powered cradle or connected to a fully charged tethered battery. A reset will cause
loss of data and custom programs in RAM. Always store unused HX3s with a fully charged
tethered battery. If possible, ensure the HX3 is periodically docked in a powered cradle to
maintain an optimum backup battery charged status.
The Status LED provides battery information.
When the LED is… The battery status is…
Green – Solid
HX3 is booting.
Green – Blinking
The HX3 is On. The OS has loaded and the main battery has a
good charge (or the device is attached to an AC power source).
Red – Steady
Main Battery Low. If the main battery is not replaced with a fully
charged battery before the main battery fails, the HX3 is turned
Off.
Red – Blinking
Main Battery Power Fail. The Backup battery maintains system
settings until depleted.
Off
Suspend or Off. Unit is in suspend mode or both Main and
Backup batteries are depleted.
• The HX3 uses the same batteries, charger and cradle as the LXE HX2 computer.
• Until the tethered battery and backup battery are completely depleted, the HX3 is
always drawing power from the batteries (On).
• New Standard / Extended batteries must be fully charged prior to use.
• Whenever possible, place the HX3 in a powered cradle to conserve tethered battery
power and recharge the backup battery.
• When a new battery is tethered to the HX3 for the first time (or after the backup
battery is depleted), the Time and Date reverts to factory default values.
• Backup battery replacement is performed by LXE.
The HX2 cradle can charge two standard batteries in less than four hours or two extended
batteries in less than 8 hours in the battery wells behind the HX2 docking bay. The cradle requires
an external power source before battery charging can occur.
The HX2 Multi-Charger can charge up to six batteries at the same time. Each charging bay can
accept either type of battery. The Multi-Charger requires an external power source before
charging/analyzing can occur.
When the HX3 is connected to a PC running ActiveSync and LXEConnect, additional battery
information can be viewed by clicking
| Settings | Control Panel | Battery tab. See Chapter
3, System Configuration for details.
Li-Ion Battery
When disposing of the tethered batteries, 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.
