Introduction
The MX5 is a rugged, portable, hand-held computer that uses Microsoft®
Windows® for Pocket PC 2000 or Pocket PC 2002 software. The MX5 can
transmit information using a 2.4 GHz radio (with an internally mounted antenna)
and it can store information for later transmission through an RS-232, InfraRed
or communication port.
The MX5 is vertically oriented and features backlighting for the display and the
keypad. The touch-screen display supports graphic features and icons that the
Pocket PC operating system supports.
The MX5 can be scaled from a limited function batch computer to an integrated
RF scanning computer. The MX5 is powered by a 2800 mAh Lithium-Ion main
battery pack and an internal backup battery.
A stylus is attached to the MX5 to assist in entering data and configuring the
unit.

Warning: Standard MX5 units are not approved for Hazardous Location
use.
Important: Until the main battery and backup battery are completely
depleted, the MX5 is always drawing power from the batteries
(On). The MX5 is to be used with a power supply (LXE P/N
MX5A305PSACUS).
If the mobile device has AppLock installed, please refer to “MX5 Reference
Guide”, “Chapter 4 – AppLock” for setup and processing information before
