E-EQ-MX3CEOGWW-A-ARC MX3-CE Installation and Operator’s Guide
Introduction
Overview
The MX3-CE is a rugged, portable, hand-held Windows CE computer capable of wireless data
communications. The MX3-CE can transmit information using a 2.4 GHz radio (with an internally
mounted antenna) and it can store information for later transmission through an RS-232 or
InfraRed or USB port.
The MX3-CE is horizontally oriented and features electroluminescent backlighting for the
greyscale display. The touch-screen display supports graphic features and Windows icons that the
Window's CE (WinCE 3.0) operating system supports. The keys on the keypad are constructed of a
phosphorescent material that can easily be seen in dimly lighted areas.
The MX3-CE is a Windows CE compatible computer that can be scaled from a limited function
batch computer to an integrated RF scanning computer.
A stylus is enclosed with the MX3-CE to assist in entering data and configuring the unit.
Note: 6400 System Access Points are compatible with an MX3-CE equipped with Proxim 2.4
GHz radios and drivers. 6500 System Access Points are compatible with an MX3-CE
equipped with Lucent 2.4 GHz radios and drivers. The MX3-CE software load includes
both Lucent and Proxim drivers.
