Update Individual or Multiple Computers Using
SmartSystems Console
CN50 Mobile Computer for Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 User Manual
You can use the SmartSystems console to update the operating system
or system software on your mobile computer. The console is part of
SmartSystems Foundation and is available from the Intermec website
through the Intermec Developer Library (IDL). Before you can update
your mobile computer, you need:
• SmartSystems Foundation. To download SmartSystems
Foundation, go to
the Downloads tab.
• the SmartSystems bundles you want to install. These
SmartSystems bundles are available from the Intermec website at
www.intermec.com. Go to Support > Downloads >
OS/Firmware/Drivers list.
After you have located these items, you can update your mobile
computer using SmartSystems Foundation.
1 Open the SmartSystems console.
2 Make sure the mobile computer is discoverable.
3 Make sure the mobile computer is in a powered dock or that power
management is disabled.
4 Download the SmartSystems bundle to your PC.
5 Double-click the SmartSystems bundle on your PC to extract the
update files to the software vault.
6 From the SmartSystems console, locate the bundles to install and
drag them to each mobile computer (or group in a folder) you want
to update. The SmartSystems console installs the update on your
mobile computers.
After the download is complete, your mobile computer begins the
update process and automatically performs a cold boot. The
computer then boots into a special Update Loader mode where the
computer has no network connections and is completely unusable.
This process can take anywhere from 30 seconds to 15 minutes
depending on the update.
After the update is complete, the computer boots again.
