Bluetooth and MX8

Please refer to the MX8 Reference Guide for

information when using the MX8 with Bluetooth.

ActiveSync

Installing ActiveSync on Desktop/Laptop

ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher for Windows XP

desktop/laptop computers) must be resident on the

host (desktop/laptop) computer. Windows Mobile

Device Center is required for a Windows

Vista/Windows 7 desktop/laptop computer. ActiveSync

and Windows Mobile Device Center for the PC are

available from the Microsoft website. Follow Microsoft's

instructions to locate, download and install ActiveSync

or Windows Mobile Device Center on your

desktop/laptop.

ActiveSync using USB-Client Connection

The only connection type is USB Client.

1. Connect the MX8 end of the USB cable to the

I/O port on the bottom of the MX8.

2. Connect the USB type A connector on the I/O

cable to a USB port on a PC or laptop.

ActiveSync starts automatically when the USB cable is

connected.

When the MX8 loses connection (e.g., enters Suspend

Mode), the connection to ActiveSync is lost. When the

MX8 resumes, disconnect the PC end of the cable and

re-connect.

Please refer to the MX8 Reference Guide for

ActiveSync information.

Setting Up the Radio

If the access point uses an authentication protocol

(WEP, LEAP, etc.), your radio must use the same

authentication. Please contact your IT department for

WEP keys or LEAP credentials. Please refer to the

MX8 Reference Guide for information on using WPA.

1. Tap Start > Programs > Summit > SCU OR

tap the Summit Client Utility icon on the

desktop.

2. Tap the Admin Login button and enter the

password (default = SUMMIT).

3. Tap the Profile tab and make sure the Default

profile is selected.

4. Select SSID and enter your SSID value.

5. If the access point is using WEP, select WEP

from the Encryption pull down list.

6. Tap the WEP keys/PSKs button and enter the

WEP Key(s) and tap OK. Skip to step 12.

7. If the access point is using LEAP, select LEAP

from the EAP Type pull down list.

8. Select WEP EAP from the Encryption pull down

list.

9. If the Cisco/CCS certified AP is configured for

open authentication, set the Auth Type radio

parameter to Open.

10. If the AP is configured for network EAP only, set

the Auth Type radio parameter to LEAP.

11. Tap the Credentials button and enter the User

Name and Password.

12. Tap the Commit button to save the radio

configuration.

13. Tap the Main tab. Wait for a radio connected

message.

14. Tap the Admin Logout button when finished.

15. Reboot the MX8.

Please refer to the Radio Mode parameter in the MX8

Reference Guide. It is important that this parameter

setting corresponds to the Access Point to which the

MX8 connects.

Setting Up AppLock

MX8 devices are shipped to boot in Administration

mode. In this mode, the user has full access to the

device and no password is needed. After the

administrator completes the process below, the MX8

switches to end-user mode and restricts access to only

the specified application(s).

1. Tap Start > Settings > Control Panel >

Administration icon.

2. Assign application(s) on the Application tab

screen.

3. Assign a password on the Security tab screen.

4. Select a view level on the Status tab screen, if

desired.

5. Tap OK.

6. Press the hotkey (Ctrl +Shift +A) sequence to

launch AppLock and lock the configured

application(s).

7. The device is now in end-user mode.

Connecting Using RFTerm

Before you make a host connection, you will, at a

minimum, need to know:

lthe alias name or IP address (Host Address)

and

lthe port number (Telnet Port) of the host system

to properly set up your host session.

1. Make sure the mobile client network settings

are properly configured. If you are connecting

via WLAN (802.11x), make sure your MX8 is

connected to the network.

2. Launch RFTerm by tapping the RFTerm icon

on the desktop.

3. Select Session > Configure from the

application menu and select the host type. This

is dependent on the host system to which you

are connecting; i.e., 3270 mainframe, AS/400

5250 server or VT host.

4. Enter the Host Address of the system. This

may either be a DNS name or an IP address of

the host system.

5. Update the telnet port number if your host

application is configured to listen on a specific

port. If not, use the default telnet port.

6. Select OK.

7. Select Session > Connect from the application

menu or tap the Connect button on the Tool

Bar.

8. Upon a successful connection, the host

application screen is displayed.

To change options (e.g., Display, Colors, Cursor,

Barcode), please refer to the RFTerm Reference Guide

for descriptions of these and other features.
