Configuring the VX7 with LXEConnect
LXEConnect allows a user to view the VX7 screen remotely from a PC using an ActiveSync connection:
Requirement : ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher for Windows XP desktop/laptop computers) must be resident on the host
(desktop/laptop) computer. Windows Mobile Device Center is required for a Windows Vista/Windows 7 desktop/laptop
computer. ActiveSync and Windows Mobile Device Center for the PC are available from the Microsoft website. Follow their
instructions to locate, download and install ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center on your desktop computer.
Note: For readability in this section, ActiveSync will be used in instructions and explanations. If you have a Windows Vista
or Windows 7 operating system on your desktop/laptop, replace ActiveSync with Windows Mobile Device Center.
ActiveSync is already installed on the VX7. The VX7 is preconfigured to establish a USB ActiveSync connection to a PC when
the proper cable is attached to the VX7 and the PC.
If the VX7 uses a serial port for ActiveSync, it will be necessary to configure the VX7 to use the serial port. Complete details on
the proper cables and port configuration are included in Initial Setup.
Install LXEConnect
1. Install Microsoft ActiveSync on a PC with a USB port. For details, please see Initial Setup.
2. Power up the VX7.
3. Connect the VX7 to the PC using the proper connection cable. Once connected, the ActiveSync dialog box appears. If
using the USB connection, the ActiveSync connection is automatically established. If using a serial connection, it is
necessary to initiate the connection from the VX7.
4. Select “No” for partnership when prompted. Dismiss any ActiveSync dialog boxes warning a partnership is not set up. It
is not necessary to establish a partnership to use LXEConnect. However, if a partnership is desired for other reasons,
one may be established now. More details on partnerships are included in ActiveSync Help.
5. When the ActiveSync screen appears, select Explore.
