4 Quick Start
Quick Start
This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new system is pre-configured
and requires only accessory installation (e.g. antenna, external keyboard and/or barcode scanner)
and a power source.
Use this guide as you would any other source book -- reading portions to learn about the VX7,
and then referring to it when you need more information about a particular subject. This guide
takes you through installation and operation of the LXE VX7.
In general, the sequence of events is:
1. Install Vehicle Mounting Bracket on vehicle and secure VX7 in Mounting Bracket
Assembly (see “Installation”, later in this manual).
2. Connect power cable to the VX7. The power cable can also be connected to a UPS
battery pack, which is then connected to the VX7.
3. Connect accessories to VX7, e.g. scanner, antenna, etc.
4. Secure all cables to the VX7 with the Strain Relief Cable Clamps.
5. Turn the VX7 on.
6. When instructed, calibrate the touchscreen.
7. The screen may appear white while applications and drivers are loading. When
complete, set Date and Time (see the “VX7 Reference Guide”).
8. Configure radio (see the VX7 Reference Guide”).
9. Warmboot to ensure all registry settings are saved.
10. Device is ready for use.
The VX7 and its keyboard should be mounted in an area in the vehicle where it:
• Does not obstruct the vehicle driver’s vision or safe vehicle operation.
• Can be easily accessed by anyone seated in the driver’s seat.
!
If your VX7 has AppLock installed, please contact your system administrator
for setup and processing information.
AppLock is configured by an administrator to limit general users to only certain
programs.

Troubleshooting
Can’t calibrate the touch
screen, change the date/time
or adjust the volume.
RFterm opens and runs upon
each cold reset and warm
reset.
The VX7 seems to lockup as
soon as it is warm booted.
AppLock is installed and running on the mobile device. AppLock
restricts User access to running programs. Changes or
modifications require Administrator access.
Refer to AppLock in the VX7 Reference Guide for setup and
processing information.
Tap File | Exit to close the RFTerm application.
There may be small delays while the wireless client connects to
the network, authorization for Voxware-enabled applications
complete, Wavelink Avalanche management of the VX7 startup
completes, and Bluetooth relationships establish or re-establish.
