Using the 1062 Handscanners with Motorola WT4000

5. Using SmartWedge Basic

5.1.
SmartWedge Basic is a utility application available as versions for devices running Windows Mobile 5
(SmartWedge PPC) or Windows CE (SmartWedge CE). It captures any text received over a serial
port and sends it to the active application as though it had been directly entered on the keyboard. This
allows the Handscanner to be immediately used with existing applications. The Desktop Configuration
application can be used to modify the Handscanner operation, for example by adding prefixes,
excluding transponder types.
An advanced version of SmartWedge is available from Technology Solutions. This includes advanced
data handling and filtering allowing rules to be constructed which modify the data processing based
on the scanned data.
5.2.
The installation for SmartWedge Basic CE is provided for free download from the Technology
Solutions website (http://www.tsl.uk.com/ProductHandscanner.htm?tab=tab4). The .cab file is
contained in the zip folder along with the install for the .NET Compact Framework Version 2 for CE5.
ActiveSync to the terminal, copy both the .cab files to a convenient location and run them to deploy
the .NET CF2 first and then SmartWedge Basic CE.
5.3.
