Backup Data Files using ActiveSync
Use the following information to backup data files from the mobile device to a desktop or laptop PC using the appropriate cable
and Microsoft’s ActiveSync.
Prerequisites
A partnership between the mobile device and ActiveSync has been established.
l
A desktop or laptop PC with an available USB port and a mobile device with a USB port. The desktop or laptop PC must
be running Windows XP or greater.
l
Use the Honeywell-specific USB cable as listed in
Connect
Connect the USB cable to the PC (the host) and the mobile device (the client).
The “Get Connected” wizard on the host PC checks COM ports to establish a connection for the first time.
Note:
USB synchronization will start automatically when the cable is connected.
Disconnect
l
Disconnect the cable from the MX7 Tecton.
l
Open the status bar icon in the lower right hand corner of the status bar. Then tap the Disconnect button.
When the MX7 Tecton loses connection, e.g. enters Suspend Mode, etc., the connection to ActiveSync will be lost. When the
MX7 Tecton resumes, the ActiveSync session will automatically re-connect.
MX7 Tecton with a Disabled Touch screen
An MX7 Tecton touch screen can be disabled (using the Options control panel Misc tab). In these cases, it may be easier to
configure the MX7 Tecton using ActiveSync and LXEConnect rather than using the MX7 Tecton keypad only.
Reset and Loss of Host Re-connection
ActiveSync assigns a partnership between a client and a host computer. A partnership is defined by two objects – a unique
computer name and a random number generated when the partnership is first created. An ActiveSync partnership between a
unique client can be established to two hosts.
When the mobile device is reset (return to default settings), the random number is deleted – and the partnership with the last
one of the two hosts is also deleted. The host retains the random numbers and unique names of all devices having a
partnership with it. Two clients cannot have a partnership with the same host if they have the same name. (Control Panel >
System > Device Name)
If the reset mobile device tries to reestablish the partnership with the same host PC, a new random number is generated for the
mobile device and ActiveSync will insist the unique name of the mobile device be changed. If the mobile device is associated
with a second host, changing the name will destroy that partnership as well. This can cause some confusion when re-
establishing partnerships with hosts.
