Chapter 4 — Manage the Computer

With a Provisioning license, SmartSystems can automatically push software, configuration settings, and other files to the computers. The license also enables ScanNGo, which makes connecting additional computers to your wireless network as easy as scanning bar codes. To purchase a Provisioning license, contact your local Intermec representative.

How to Manage the Computer with Third-Party Software

Third-party device management software, such as Soti MobiControl and Wavelink Avalanche, increases security and lets you update software, track assets, and troubleshoot devices remotely.

Note: The CV31 is supported by Soti MobiControl version 11.0.2 and later and RemoteMastermind version 4.05 and later.

How to 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.

How to Package Your Application

After you develop your application, you need to package it for installation on your mobile computer. For very simple applications, the executable file may be the only file you need to deploy. Typically, you will have a set of files to install. Intermec recommends using cabinet (.cab) files to install more complex applications. The computer uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install third-party .cab files.
