Update Monitoring Overview
There are three methods by which the Enabler on the MX7 Tecton can communicate with the Mobile Device Server running on
the host machine.
l Wired via a serial cable between the Mobile Device Server PC and the MX7 Tecton.
l Wired via a USB connection, using ActiveSync, between the Mobile Device Server PC and the MX7 Tecton.
l Wirelessly via the MX7 Tecton 802.11 radio and an access point
After installing the Enabler on the MX7 Tecton 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 Tecton 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
scanner control panels on the MX7 Tecton).
The wireless connection is made using the default wireless [radio] interface on the mobile device therefore the MX7 Tecton
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.
