The following sections explain how to use each one of these processes
to install your application on the computer.
Installing Applications Using SmartSystems Foundation
You can use the SmartSystems console to drag-and-drop Intermec
applications onto your mobile computers. The computer ships with
the SmartSystems client, which means it is SmartSystems-enabled.
The console is part of SmartSystems Foundation, which you can
download from www.intermec.com/SmartSystems. For help using
the console, see the online help.
To use SmartSystems console to install an application
1 Download your application file from the Intermec web site and
unzip it on your desktop PC.
2 Double-click the application file to install it. The application file
should appear in the Software Vault.
3 From the SmartSystems console in the Software Vault, drag-and-
drop the application onto each mobile computer in your network.
Installing Applications Using Microsoft ActiveSync
You can use Microsoft ActiveSync to establish a connection between
your PC and the computer. ActiveSync transfers files, synchronizes
files, performs remote debugging, and other device management

copy files using Windows Explorer on a PC. This procedure assumes
that Microsoft ActiveSync is installed on your PC and is up and
running.
To install an application on the computer using ActiveSync
1 Connect the CK61 to a PC using a USB cable. You may have to
disconnect and then connect the cable to “wake” the connection.
2 Wait for a “Connected” message to appear in the Microsoft
ActiveSync application to signal a connection to the mobile
