Chapter 1: Introduction

The MX7 is a rugged, portable, hand-held Microsoft® Windows® CE 5 equipped mobile computer capable of wireless data communications. The MX7 can transmit information using an 802.11 network card and it can store information for later transmission through an RS232 or USB port. The MX7CS (Cold Storage) device functions normally in various temperature ranges.

The MX7 is vertically oriented and features backlighting for the display. Keypads are available in 55-key alphanumeric and 32- key numeric-alpha versions. This device can be scaled from a limited function batch computer to an integrated RF scanning computer.
