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. For more
information about SmartSystems Foundation, go to the Intermec
website at 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 website 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
or drop the application on a group of mobile computers contained
in a folder.
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
activities. For more information on installing and using ActiveSync,
see “Connecting to a PC” on page 34
.
You can have a serial or USB ActiveSync connection to the mobile
computer. When you only have a few computers to update, you can
copy files using Windows Explorer on a PC.
This procedure assumes that Microsoft ActiveSync is installed on
your PC and is up and running.
