Manage the Computer Using Third-Party Software
You can use third-party software such as Wavelink Avalanche to
centrally manage your Intermec devices. Device management software
enables you to update software, increase security, track your assets,
and troubleshoot devices remotely. You can download the Wavelink
Enabler for the mobile computer from the Wavelink website. For more
information, visit the Intermec website and search for Wavelink
Avalanche or visit www.wavelink.com to download the enabler.
Develop and Install Applications
Use the Intermec Resource Kits to develop applications to run on the
mobile computer. The Resource Kits are a library of C++, .NET, Java,
and web components grouped by functionality that you can use to
create applications for the computer. The Resource Kits are part of the
Intermec Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded from the
Intermec website at www.intermec.com/idl.
For more information, see the Intermec Developer Library Resource Kit
Developer Guide.
Package Your Application
For very simple applications, the executable file may be the only file
you need to deploy. More typically, you will have a set of files to install.
Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications. The
computer uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install
third-party .cab files.
Choose a Target Location
You can have your .cab file place your application in any of these
memory locations on the mobile computer:
• The ObjectStore.
• The optional microSD card. Depending on available disk space,
you may want to consider installing your application files on the
microSD card. Using a card creates the Storage Card folder on the
computer.
