Starting Terminal Configuration Manager - Symbol MC909X Integrator Manual

The customization of partitions is controlled by TCM scripts. The scripts contain all of the necessary
information for building an image. The script is a list of copy commands specifying the files to copy from the
development computer to the partition.
TCM works with a pair of directory windows, one displaying the script and the other displaying the source files
resident on the development computer. Using standard windows drag and drop operations, files can be added
and deleted from the script window.
The DCP for MC9090c50 includes scripts used by Symbol Technologies to build the standard factory installed
Platform and Application partitions provided on the mobile computer. The standard Platform partition contains
drivers while the Application partition contains demo applications and optional components. The standard TCM
scripts can be found in the following folder: C:\Program Files\Symbol Device Configuration
Packages\MC9090x\v1.0\TCM Scripts.
