Your CS40 uses Image Update to update the operating system (OS)
and system software. Image Update uses packages to allow for smaller
and faster updates because the contents are stored in ROM. Packages
persist through a cold or clean boot and cannot be removed by the
end user. The Image Update process also provides strengthened
security because all packages are signed.
Image Update packages (.pkg or .pks files) may contain elements such
as DLLs, executable (.exe) files, and .cab files.
You can use either of these methods to update your CS40:
• You can update multiple computers at the same time using the
SmartSystems Console. For help, see the next section,
Multiple CS40s Using SmartSystems
• You can update individual computers by transferring the packages
to your mobile computer and then installing them from the
mobile computer.
If you are using SmartSystems to update your CS40 you can choose to
send the updates silently. For more information, see
Silent Update Packages to the Computer" on page
