E-EQ-RX2RG-B RX2 Reference Guide
Getting Started
Use this guide as you would any other source book – reading portions to learn about the device,
and then referring to it when you need more information about a particular subject. This guide
takes you through an introduction to and operation of the RX2.
Note: The RX2 is assembled with an optional internal battery pack (if ordered) and radio card
installed before shipment.
This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new system is pre-configured
and requires only a power source.
In general, the sequence of events is:
1. Mount the RX2 on the forklift truck.
2. Provide a power source for the RX2:
• Connect an external power source to the unit (if required).
-or-
• Use the optional internal battery pack (the internal battery pack, if ordered, must be
fully charged before use).
3. Flip the power switch to On (battery powered units only).
4. Observe the power LED. The power LED is On solid during the boot process. When booted,
the LED is flashing. The LED is green when battery power is good, red when battery power
is low.
5. Make any desired configuration changes.
Note: Do not connect a tethered scanner cable to a USB-C labeled port. This port cannot
power a tethered scanner.
Power Switch
The Power Switch is present only on RX2’s with an internal battery. All other RX2’s are always
On when DC power is connected.
Figure 1-3 Power Switch
The power switch is located on the side of the RX2. When the RX2 has a charged internal battery
or is connected to DC power, flipping the power switch to On turns on the RX2.
If a battery charger is connected to the RX2, the RX2 remains Off until the charger is disconnected
regardless of the position of the power switch.
