MX3Plus without a Touch Screen

If your MX3Plus is not equipped with a touch screen you can use keypad shortcuts instead of the stylus:

•Press Tab and an Arrow key to select a file.

•Press Shift and an Arrow key to select several files.

•Once you’ve selected a file, press Alt then press Enter to open its Properties dialog.

•Press 2nd then press numeric dot to delete a file.

•To force the Start menu to display, press Ctrl then press Esc.

For a MX3Plus equipped with a touch screen, the touch screen can be disabled and enabled using Start > Settings > Control Panel > MX3X-VXC Options > Misc tab.

If a touch screen is not present or the touch screen is disabled, it may be preferable to use ActiveSync and LXEConnect to configure the MX3Plus.

Reboot

When the Windows CE desktop is displayed or an application begins, the power up (or reboot) sequence is complete.

Warm Boot

Start > Run

A warm boot reboots the computer without erasing any registry data. However, any applications installed to RAM are lost, as is all data in RAM. This occurs because the operating system is stored on the flash drive, but must be loaded into RAM to run.

Tap Start > Run and type WARMBOOT.EXE or WARMBOOT. This command is not case-sensitive. Tap the OK button. This process takes less than 15 seconds. Temporary data not saved is lost.

Note: There may be slight delays while the wireless client connects to the network, re-authorization for voice-enabled applications completes, Wavelink Avalanche management of the MX3Plus startup completes, or Bluetooth relationships establish or re-establish.

Cold Boot

Start > Run

The Cold Boot function reboots the device, erases all registry data, and user-specified settings. The factory default settings are restored when the MX3Plus powers on again.

Passwords are lost upon cold boot. If a password is set, that password must be entered to begin the cold boot power cycle process.

Tap Start > Run and type COLDBOOT.EXE or COLDBOOT. This command is not case sensitive. Tap the OK button.

Note: Because of the extreme nature of cold boot, Honeywell recommends using this command only as an emergency (or when instructed to do so as part of a specific MX3Plus procedure).
