Docking and Undocking the MX9
When the MX9 is in Suspend Mode it wakes up when it is docked in a powered cradle. There is no change in mode state
settings or behavior when the MX9 is docked in a cradle without a power source.
MX9 mode states while the MX9 is in a powered cradle e.g., suspend, resume, display backlight, etc., are managed by the
MX9 OS Power settings.
If the cradle is not permanently attached to the work surface, stabilize the cradle with one hand while inserting or removing
the MX9 with the other hand.
The MX9 is inserted into the charging pocket with the keypad facing forward.

designed to secure the MX9 facing front.

Undock the MX9
Remove the MX9 from the cradle by pulling it straight up and out of the docking bay. If necessary, brace the cradle with
one hand while the other hand removes the MX9.
