3 Make sure the mobile computer is in communications dock or a
charging dock, or that power management is not set to turn off the
computer if it is not charging.
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 Foundation Console, locate the bundles
to install and drag them to each mobile computer (or group in a
folder) you want to update. The SmartSystems Foundation
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.
7 When a confirmation dialog box appears requesting user input,
dismiss it.
How to Send Image Updates Silently
If you want to automatically download and send update packages to
your mobile computers, you can purchase a Provisioning license.
The silent updates do not require any user intervention and begin
when you choose to have the update process start. SmartSystems
Foundation users are notified when update packages are released so
that they can download then and update their Intermec computers.
For more information, see the SmartSystems Foundation Help.
Note: The SmartSystems console indicates that your mobile
computer is offline, by displaying a red stop symbol, until the
computer reboots and reconnects to the system.
