The Data Collection Wedge supports up to three concurrent data collection devices. For example, the internal scanner could be
used to collect data at the same time a Bluetooth scanner is paired and/or a serial device is attached to COM1. The MX9 must
be in a desktop cradle to use a tethered scanner.
Device 1 – Internal. Radio button allows scanner input/output on Device 1 (scan key or trigger).
Device 2 – Output is enabled when COM1 is enabled on this port.
Device 3 – Output is enabled when COM1 is enabled on this port.
Note: Since Internal is the default setting for Device 2, a Bluetooth scanner can be paired with the Wedge on Device 1 without
disabling the internal scanner.
Output – When Output is enabled, data is received from the scanner and processed via the wedge but an application can also
open the WDG0: device and write data to it. An example is when a printer is connected to the same COM port as the scanner
via a switch. Data can be written to the WDG device and is redirected to the associated COM port. The application must open
the WDG0: port, not the COMx: port as the Wedge has exclusive rights to the COM port. If Output is not enabled, the WDG0:
port can still be opened, but any attempts to write to that port fail.
Note: Adjust the settings and tap OK to save the changes. The changes take effect immediately.
The Scan Mode (Continuous Scan) section is only present if the MX9 is equipped with a Symbol integrated scanner.
