Configure the MX3-CE
The following instructions relate to initial setup of ActiveSync. When there is a Connect icon on
the MX3-CE desktop, this section can be bypassed.
Serial Connection
Select Control Panel / Communications / PC Connection. Click the Change button. From the
popup list, choose
Serial 1 @ 57600
This will set up the MX3-CE to use COM 1. If the MX3-CE has a dual-serial port endcap, the
Serial 3 @ 57600 can also be selected. Click OK and ensure the check box for "Allow connection
with desktop computer when device is attached" is checked.
Click OK to return to the Control Panel.
Select Scanner and ensure the integrated scanner is set to a port that is NOT the same as the
ActiveSync port.
USB Connection
Select Control Panel / Communications / PC Connection. Click the Change button. From the
popup list, choose
USB
This will set up the MX3-CE to use COM 1. Click OK and ensure the check box for "Allow
connection with desktop computer when device is attached" is checked.
Click OK to return to the Control Panel.
Select Scanner and ensure the integrated scanner is set to a port that is NOT the same as the
ActiveSync port.
Note: Do Not put the MX3-CE into Suspend Mode while a USB connection is in progress.
IRDA Connection
Note: The ActiveSync connection does true IRDA, not serial over IR, or TCP/IP (Winsock) over
IR, like many infrared connections. Therefore, it is important to use a PC infrared
interface which supports the handshaking needed for ActiveSync.
Select Control Panel / Communications / PC Connection. Click the Change button. From the
popup list, choose
IR @ 115200
This will set up the MX3-CE to use COM 1. Click OK and ensure the check box for "Allow
connection with desktop computer when device is attached" is checked.
Click OK to return to the Control Panel.
Select Scanner and ensure the integrated scanner is set to a port that is NOT the same as the
ActiveSync port.
