Honeywell MX7 Tecton Reference Manual

COM Ports
The MX7 Tecton has one mini D 20-pin serial port (a multifunction I/O port) that can be configured by the user. It has a power
input interface to allow powering the MX7 Tecton from an external source (AC/DC power supply or vehicle power). The power
input interface range is 10 - 18VDC.
RS232 Serial Port
Configured as COM1. Bi-directional full duplex and supports data rates up to 115 Kb/s. The port does not have RI or CD
signals nor does it support 5V switchable power on pin 9 for tethered scanners. The serial port driver supports full duplex
communications over the serial port. It supports data exchange via ActiveSync, but does not automatically start ActiveSync
when connected. The Cable, Multipurpose RS232 and Power and Adapter, RS232 PC port to D9 male accessories can be
used with the RS232 serial port. External AC power is available when the multipurpose RS232/Power cable is connected.
External AC power is not available for the Adapter, RS232 PC port to D9 male option. Power is drawn from the main battery
pack when this adapter is connected..
USB Client Port
The MX7 Tecton has one USB Client port for ActiveSync applications. An accessory USB cable, Cable, Multipurpose USB
and Power is available to connect the MX7 Tecton to a USB Type A plug on a PC for ActiveSync functions. External AC power
is available when the multipurpose USB Client/Power cable is connected.
Audio Connection
An audio headset interface is available using the Adapter, Audio accessory with the I/O port. The connection cable connects
the MX7 Tecton to a Voxware quick disconnect 4-pin interface. This cable adapts to specific styles of headsets for voice input,
stereo or mono output. The MX7 Tecton with a Summit Client supports mono only. A 3-wire connector with (at a minimum)
connections for ground, microphone, and 1 speaker. Connecting the headset to the MX7 Tecton COM port turns off audio
output to the MX7 Tecton speaker on the front of the mobile device. All sounds previously directed to the speaker are redirected
to the headphone, including beeps. Bias voltage for an electric condenser microphone is available. External AC power is not
available for this option. Power is drawn from the main battery pack.
Audio Support
Speaker The speaker supplies audible verification signals normally used by the Window’s CE operating system. The speaker
is located on the front of the MX7 Tecton, above the MX7 Tecton logo. The mobile device emits a Sound Pressure Level
(loudness) of at least 102 dB measured as follows:
l Frequency: 2650 + 100 Hz
l Distance: 10 cm on axis in front of Speaker opening in front of unit.
l Duration : Continuous 2650 Hz tone.
The default is 1 beep for a good scan and 2 beeps for a bad scan.
Volume Control. Volume control is managed by a Windows CE control panel applet, an API and the Orange-Scan up/down
arrow key sequence.
Voice. All Microsoft-supplied audio codecs are included in the OS image. The hardware codecs, the input and output analog
voice circuitry and the system design are designed to support voice applications using a headset connected to the Adapter,
Audio accessory cable and the MX7 Tecton I/O connector.
