AirBEAM Smart Introduction The AirBEAM Smart product allows specially designed software packages to be transferred between a host server and Symbol wireless handheld devices. Before transfer, AirBEAM Smart checks and compares package version, so that only updated packages are loaded. AirBEAM Smart resides on radio-equipped client devices and allows them to request, download and install software, as well as to upload files and status data.

Page 363: Flash Storage
Flash Storage In addition to the RAM-based storage standard on Windows CE terminals, the mobile computer is also equipped with a non-volatile Flash-based storage area which can store data (partitions) that can not be corrupted by a cold boot. This Flash area is divided into two categories: Flash File System (FFS) Partitions and Non-FFS Partitions.
Page 364: Regmerge.dll
10-28 MC9000-K/S for Embedded Windows® CE .NET Product Reference Guide RegMerge.dll RegMerge.dll is a built-in driver that allows registry edits to be made to the Windows CE Registry. Regmerge.dll runs very early in the boot process and looks for registry files (.reg files) in certain Flash File System folders during a cold boot.
Page 365: Copyfiles
CopyFiles Windows CE expects certain files to be in the Windows folder, residing in volatile storage. Windows CE maintains the System Registry in volatile storage. CopyFiles copies files from one folder to another on a cold boot. Files can be copied from a non-volatile partition (Application or Platform) to the Windows or other volatile partition during a cold boot.
