You can use the Intermec Recovery Tools CD to reinstall or upgrade the oper-
ating system software on the CK60. For more information, contact your
Intermec representative for more information about this CD.
You can use the SmartSystems™ Foundation 2.0 application from Intermec
to perform upgrades on your CK60, versions 2.0 or later. Contact your
Intermec representative for more information about the SmartSystems
Foundation software.
When you upgrade the operating system, you erase the current configura-
tion and replace it with the new default configuration. You will need to
reset the network parameters on the CK60 to reestablish communications
with other devices in the network. In other words, if you upgrade the oper-
ating system and the default registry from the operating system has
changed, the registry is rolled back to the new default.
When you upgrade your CK60, you are updating the operating system
(OS) and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) files.
The PSM files are stored on the DiskOnChip, and deliver Intermec Value-
Added (IVA) functionality such as data collection, unit configuration and
diagnostics, and Intermec's wireless security suite. As new features are
added to these components, you can upgrade your PSM files without need-
ing to upgrade the operating system image. Similarly, features added to the
operating system images do not affect the functionality of the PSM, and
you can choose to upgrade only the operating system image.
There are two ways to upgrade the CK60:
• You can use a Secure Digital card to upgrade the CK60. For help, see
below.
• You can use the SmartSystems Console to upgrade the CK60. For help,
see "Using the SmartSystems Console to Upgrade the Computer" on
page 107.
You need to download the latest upgrade files from the Intermec web site to
your desktop or laptop computer, then determine if you will upgrade both
the operating system and PSM files, just the operating system files, or just
the PSM files.
