WLAN Drivers CAB Files

• landrvarm_xxxx.cab

This CAB file must be installed in order to use the WLAN capabi lities of an SPS

3000 that contains WLAN hardware. After the drivers are i nstalled, a warm boot of

the system must take place. A warm boot is initiated by pressing the Reset button

located on the bottom of the iPAQ (see iPAQ Pocket PC Parts Used by the SPS

3000 on page 1-3).

• landrvdiv_xxxx.cab

The WLAN hardware on the SPS 3000 contains a single antenna. Thi s CAB file

configures the WLAN driver not to use “Diversity” and sets the h ardware default to

not use “Diversity”.

Note:When CAB files ar e registered, the “xxxx” in each CAB file name

(described in the sections, Scan Drivers and Applications CAB Fi les

and WLAN Drivers CAB Files) is replaced with a number that

corresponds to the CAB file’s release revision. This provides an

easy way to tell if the most current revision of the CAB file is used .

For example, scndrv_0100.cab corresponds to a CAB file version of

1.00.
