Update Monitoring Overview
There are three methods by which the Enabler on the MX7 can communicate with the Mobile Device Server running on the host machine.
•Wired via a serial cable between the Mobile Device Server PC and the MX7.
•Wired via a USB connection, using ActiveSync, between the Mobile Device Server PC and the MX7.
•Wirelessly via the MX7 2.4GHz radio and an access point
After installing the Enabler on the MX7 the Enabler searches for a Mobile Device Server, first by polling all available serial ports and then over the wireless network.
The Enabler running on the MX7 will attempt to access COM1, COM2, and COM3. “Agent not found” will be reported if the Mobile Device Server is not located or a serial port is not present or available (COM port settings can be verified using the bar code wedge control panels on the MX7).
The wireless connection is made using the default wireless [radio] interface on the mobile device therefore the MX7 must be actively communicating with the network for this method to succeed.
If a Mobile Device Server is found, the Enabler automatically attempts to apply all wireless and network settings from the active profile. The Enabler also automatically downloads and processes all available packages.
If the Enabler does not automatically detect the Mobile Device Server, the IP address of the Mobile Device Server can be entered on the Connect tab of the Enabler setup. Please see Enabler Configuration for details.
