Updating Individual Mobile Computers
You can download update packages from your PC to your mobile
computer using Microsoft ActiveSync (Windows XP or earlier),
Windows Mobile Device Center (Windows Vista or Windows 7), or any
other file transfer method you choose. ActiveSync and Windows
Mobile Device Center are free applications available from the
Microsoft web site at www.windowsmobile.com/getstarted.
To update an individual mobile computer:
1 Download the Image Update packages you want to install from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com. Go to Support >
Downloads.
2 Transfer the Image Update packages from your PC to the mobile
computer.
3 On your mobile computer, tap Start > Programs > File Explorer
and navigate to the location of the Image Update package.
4 Tap the package to start the installation. 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 mobile computer boots again.
5 When a confirmation dialog box appears requesting user input,
dismiss it.
Make sure to keep the computer connected to power. Removing
power will damage the mobile computer.
