Data Collection Wedge
Introduction
Set scanner/imager keyboard wedge parameters, enable or disable symbologies from being scanned, scanner icon appear-
ance, active scanner port, and scan key settings. Assign baud rate, parity, stop bits and data bits for available COM ports. Scan-
ner parameters apply to the MX7 Tecton integrated scanner/imager only. Bar code manipulation parameters apply to bar codes
scanned by the MX7 Tecton integrated scanner/imager engine.
Scanner configuration can be changed using the Data Collection settings panels or via the API functions. While the changed
configuration is being read, the Scanner LED is solid amber. The scanner is not operational during the configuration update.
The MX7 Tecton has one integrated bar code scanner/imager port. Only one scan engine is installed at a time. Scan engines
are not “hot swappable”. The MX7 Tecton may have one of the following integrated bar code decoding engines:
• Short Range Laser Scanner, 955I
• Base Laser Scanner, 955E
• Multi-Range “LORAX” Laser, 1524ER
• Hand Held Products 2D Area Imager, 5300
• Honeywell Laser Scanner, N43XX
• Honeywell Laser Scanner, N73XX
Note: Identify the Scan Engine: Open the Data Collection application panel on the MX7 Tecton. Tap the About tab. The type of
integrated scan engine is shown in the Scanner segment.
The integrated scan engine activates when the Scan button on the front of the MX7 Tecton is depressed or when the trigger on
an installed trigger handle is depressed.
Symbol or Honeywell scanner
Refer to the Integrated Scanner Programming Guide for instruction on configuring specific scanner/imager parameters by
using the MX7 Tecton to scan engine-specific setup bar codes in the guide.
Note: Base Laser Scanner, 955E does not support aim mode. Any attempt to adjust the aiming beam using 955E
programming bar codes will fail. The Base Laser scanner does not decode Codablock, Code93i or Telepen
symbologies.
Hand Held Products Imager
Use the (Hand Held Products) HHP Products button on the Data Options tab and the Advanced button available on many of
the individual Symbology Settings screens to configure the Hand Held Products Imager. There are no configuration bar
codes for this imager.
