Auxiliary Ports and Peripherals
• Three USB 2.0 full speed auxiliary ports (see 
AUX A-B (Stacked USB) on page 2-56).
• Two RS-232 auxiliary ports (AUX 1/AUX 2; see

The MP70XX can support the following combinations of peripherals:
• Hand-held scanners supported in USB mode, or RS-232 mode.
• CSS (CSS is USB only).
• Wireless auxiliary scanner support may be provided via a corded cradle as an auxiliary device.
• Sensormatic controller via the RS-232 auxiliary port.
• Dual cable scanner/scale: Via RS-232 AUX 1, or RS-232 AUX 2 ports (see 
Figure 1-3 on page 1-8, and Table

Programming Management Tools
• 123Scan
 
(see 
Chapter 6, 123Scan and Software Tools)
• SMS
• Staging flash drive reprogramming (USB memory stick).
Application Programming Interfaces
• Zebra scanner SDK APIs (CoreScanner APIs).
• Zebra scanner OPOS/JPOS APIs.
For access to these programming interfaces, go to: 
www.zebra.com/scannersdkforwindows.
NOTE A total of one hand-held scanner plus one CSS is supported.
NOTE An auxiliary cordless scanner, such as the DS2208, DS4308, or DS8178, can be attached to the MP70XX. If a 
standard cradle is used with any of these scanners, a separate cradle power supply is required.
IMPORTANTUse only Zebra approved cables when connecting peripherals to the ports on the MP70XX.
NOTE Only Zebra hand-held scanners can be managed via 123Scan (see Chapter 6, 123Scan and Software 
Tools), and SMS through the MP70XX scanner.
NOTE SDK supported functionality by communication protocol is listed in Appendix E, Communication Protocol 
Functionality.
NOTE If the MP70XX is powered up with no interface cable present, it reverts to “no host mode.” This is useful for 
demonstrations where no host is present.
