Integrated Scanner Port
The MX3X Barcode Scanner is used to collect barcode data from any nearby compatible barcode
label. Depending on the size of the barcode, size of bars and spacing and quality of the barcode,
the scanner is used to read barcodes between 3" and 30". The barcode scanner reads UPC/EAN,
Code 39, Code 93, I 2 of 5, Discrete 2 of 5, Code 128, Codabar and MSI symbologies.
The internal barcode scanner scans only when the Scan button is pressed. Scan buttons have no
effect on tethered barcode scanners connected to a serial port on the MX3X or to the serial port on
a cradle holding an MX3X. The SCNR LED illuminates during any MX3X internal scanner
activation.
The MX3X has an SE923 scanner engine.
If you need to set up the integrated scanner barcode reading parameters , please refer to
the “ Integrated Scanner Programming Guide ” and the “MX3” barcode scanner type.
The guide is on the LXE Manuals CD and the LXE / ServicePass website.
After scanning the barcodes that change Baud Rate, Parity, or Stop Bits go to Start |
Control Panel | Scanner | COM 3, make the same changes, and save the changes by
tapping OK.
