Chapter 8 — Managing the Computer
CS40 Mobile Computer User’s Manual 85
Through the SmartSystems Foundation Console, you can:
• drag-and-drop configuration bundles, operating system updates,
and firmware upgrades to multiple devices.
• save configuration settings from a single device and deploy those
settings to many devices simultaneously.
• remotely change settings on SmartSystems-enabled computers and
peripherals.
The SmartSystems Foundation Console can report on asset locations
and battery status, making it easier to manage your mobile devices.
Your mobile computer ships with a Provisioning license. With this
license, SmartSystems Foundation can automatically push software,
configuration settings, and other files to a single mobile computer.
The license also enables ScanNGo, which makes connecting additional
mobile computers to your wireless network as easy as reading bar
codes. SmartSystems Foundation can be downloaded at no charge
from the Intermec web site. For more information, visit
www.intermec.com\SmartSystems.
To manage multiple mobile computers, you need to purchase a
Management license. For help, contact your local Intermec sales
representative.
How to Manage the Computer Using Third Party Software

and troubleshoot devices remotely. You can download the Wavelink
Enabler for the computer from the Wavelink web site. For more

Avalanche or visit www.wavelink.com to download the enabler.
