Docking and Undocking the MX7 Tecton

See Installing and Removing the Docking Bay Adapter Cup (page 14-7).

When the MX7 Tecton is in Suspend Mode it wakes up when it is docked in a powered cradle. There is no change in mode state settings or behavior when the MX7 Tecton is docked in a cradle without a power source.

MX7 Tecton mode states while the MX7 Tecton is in a powered cradle e.g., suspend, resume, display backlight, etc., are managed by the MX7 Tecton OS Power settings.

The MX7 Tecton is inserted into the charging pocket with the keypad facing forward. If the cradle is not permanently attached to the work surface, stabilize the cradle with one hand while inserting or removing the MX7 Tecton with the other hand.

Dock the MX7 Tecton

Remove any cables attached to the base of the MX7 Tecton.

Carefully press the MX7 Tecton straight down into the docking bay until the multi-pin connector at the base of the MX7 Tecton clicks into place with the multi-pin charging/communication connector at the bottom of the docking bay. The MX7 Tecton cradle is designed to secure the MX7 Tecton facing forward.

The cradle's Docked LED illuminates.

Undock the MX7 Tecton

Remove the MX7 Tecton from the cradle by pulling it straight up and out of the docking bay. If necessary, stabilize the cradle with one hand while the other hand removes the MX7 Tecton.

The cradle's Docked LED turns Off.
