Bar Code Readers

Your MX7 may have any of the following integrated bar code readers :

1D Linear Imager, EV-15

2D Area Imager, 5380

Short Range Laser Scanner, 955i

Base Laser Scanner, 955E

Multi-Range "LORAX" Laser, 1524ER

Note: Base Laser Scanner, 955E does not support aim mode. Any attempt to adjust the aiming beam using SE955 programming bar codes will fail. The Low Power scanner does not decode Codablock, Code93i or Telepen symbologies.

The MX7 can use the following external bar code readers:

Tethered hand-held scanners are tethered to a serial port on the MX7 or cradle/dock and are configured by scanning the engine-specific bar codes in the scanner manufacturer's programming guide. The manufacturer's guides are usually shipped with the bar code reader.

Wireless hand-held Bluetooth scanners are configured by scanning the engine-specific bar codes in the scanner manufacturer's programming guide. The manufacturer's guides are usually shipped with the bar code reader.

The body worn Bluetooth Ring Scanner module may be using a Symbol 4400 Ring Imager or a Symbol 955 Ring Scanner. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module and ring decoders are configured by scanning the bar codes in the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Programming Guide.

Return to Factory Default Settings

Important: After scanning the engine-specific bar code to return the scanner/imager to factory default settings, the next step is to open the bar code wedge panel on the mobile device collecting the scanned data. Click the OK button to close the panel. This action will synchronize all scanner formats for your device.

Engine specific bar codes for integrated scanners are contained in the Integrated Scanner Programming Guide. They can be used to set or reset scan engine parameters by scanning a bar code, then saving the change. Symbol and Intermec scan engines can be programmed using programming bar codes.
