Setup a New Device
Prerequisites:
• The touch panel must be enabled. Refer to the (Start | Settings | Control Panel | Handheld |
Misc | ) Touch Panel Disabled setting.
• An MX5X default input method (Input Panel, Transcriber, or custom input method) is
assigned.
LXE CE devices with the AppLock feature are shipped to boot in Administration mode with no
default password, thus when the device is first booted, the user has full access to the device and no
password prompt is displayed. After the administrator specifies applications to lock, a password is
assigned and the device is rebooted or the hotkey is pressed, the device switches to end-user mode.
Briefly, the process to configure a new device is as follows:
1. Insert a fully charged battery and press the Power button. See Chapter 1 – Introduction for
instruction.
2. Connect an external power source to the device (if required). See Chapter 1 – Introduction for
instruction.
3. Adjust screen display, audio volume and other parameters if desired. Install accessories (e.g.
handstrap, stylus). See Chapter 1 – Introduction for instruction.
4. Tap Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administration icon.
5. Assign a Switch Key (hotkey) sequence for AppLock. See Security Panel.
6. Assign an application on the Application tab screen. More than one application can be
assigned. See Application Panel.
7. Assign a password on the Security tab screen. See Security Panel.
8. Select a view level on the Status tab screen, if desired. See Status Panel.
9. Tap OK.
10. Press the Switch Key sequence to launch AppLock and lock the configured application(s).
11. The device is now in end-user mode.
Note: LXE has made the assumption, in this appendix, that the first user to power up a new
mobile device is the system administrator.
Note: AppLock cannot support multiple windows of some applications. Attempting to open
multiple windows of RFTerm or Pocket Word will cause AppLock to switch to
administration mode.
