Connect Input/Output Cables
Note: Route all cables to ensure they are protected from jostling, tugging or being disconnected by passing objects.
The cradle must be receiving power from an external power source before MX7 Tecton battery charging can begin.
Attach a Serial or I/O Connector
The serial cable is connected to the port labeled Serial Interface on the left front of the desktop cradle.
The serial cable end can originate with a tethered scanner, a desktop/laptop PC, a printer or another serial device.
The I/O connector cable is connected to the port (male) labeled MX7 Tecton I/O Port on the right front of the desktop cradle.
Periodically test the connections for stability and re-tighten if necessary.
Serial Cable
Align the RS232 serial cable end (female) carefully to the Serial Interface port (male) on the left front of the desktop cradle.
Press the ends together and finger tighten the screws on either side of the connector. Test the connection for stability.
I/O Cable
Squeeze the clips next to the connector attached to the cable to open the catches in the connector assembly. Firmly press the
cable end (female) into the MX7 Tecton I/O Port connector (male) on the front of the cradle. Release the clips in the connector
cable. Test the connection for stability.
