When the MX7 is in Suspend Mode it wakes up when docked in a powered cradle. There is no
change in mode state settings or behavior when the MX7 is docked in an unpowered cradle.
MX7 mode states
while the MX7 is in a powered cradle
e.g. suspend, resume, display backlight,
etc., are managed by the settings in
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Power
and
Start | Settings
| Control Panel | Display.
If the cradle is
not
permanently attached to the work surface, remember to stabilize the cradle
with one hand while inserting or removing the MX7 with the other hand.
The MX7 is inserted into the charging pocket with the keypad facing forward.

Carefully press the MX7 down into the charging pocket until the 20 pin
connector at the base of the MX7 clicks into place with the charging connector at the bottom of
the charging well. The Docked LED illuminates.
Undock the MX7 --
Remove the MX7 from the cradle by pulling it straight up and out of the
charging pocket. The Docked LED turns Off.
