How to Configure the Computer
You can configure many parameters on the CN50 such as the bar code
symbologies it decodes or the network settings. These characteristics
are controlled by configuration parameters. The values you set for
these configuration parameters determine how the CN50 operates.
There are several ways to configure the CN50:
• Directly on the CN50 using Intermec Settings. This allows you to
change only the settings on that computer. For more information,
see the next section, “Use Intermec Settings On the Computer.”
• You can use the ScanNGo utility, which is part of SmartSystems™
Foundation, to quickly provide the CN50 with the minimal
information necessary to connect to a secure network. For more
information, see “Configure 802.11 Radio Communications”
on page 67 and “Manage the Computer With SmartSystems
Foundation” on page 90.
• You can use a third party device management product that
supports the CN50, such as the Microsoft System Center Mobile
Device Manager. For more information, visit the Microsoft website
at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx.
• You can use Imager Configuration Bar codes to enable or disable
symbologies, reset to factory defaults, and set predefined imager
modes. For more information, see “Imager Configuration Bar
Codes” on page 127.
Use Intermec Settings On the Computer
Use Intermec Settings to configure parameters for Intermec
applications on the computer, as well as device-specific parameters like
volume. You can configure parameters for important functions like
data collection and communications.
