When the CN2B Computer finishes booting, you may use it. You have
reset the CN2B Computer to its default configuration. You need to set the
date and time and to set its network communications parameters to rees-
tablish communications with the other devices in the wireless network.
Using the SmartSystems Console to Upgrade the CN2B Computer
You can use the SmartSystems Console to upgrade the operating system on
your CN2B Computer. The console is part of SmartSystems Foundation
and is available from the Intermec web site via the Intermec Developer
Library (IDL). Before you can upgrade your computer, you need:
• the SmartSystems Foundation. To download SmartSystems Foundation,
go to www.intermec.com/idl and open the Device Management page.
• the device upgrade .exe file. This file is available from the Intermec web
site at www.intermec.com. Go to Service & Support > Downloads.
Make sure the file you select is for your language.
1 Install SmartSystems Foundation on your desktop PC, then open the
console.
2 Make sure the console and CN2B Computers are on the same subnet.
3 Make sure your CN2B Computers are either in a CN2B Communica-
tions Dock or charging dock, or that power management is disabled.
4 Download the device upgrade .exe file to your desktop PC.
5 Double-click the .exe file on your desktop PC. An InstallShield applica-
tion starts and walks you through the process of extracting the upgrade
files in the default location.
Note: Do not change the default location where InstallShield extracts the
files. The SmartSystems Console requires the files be in this location.
6 From the SmartSystems Console, locate the device upgrade to install.
7 Drag-and-drop the device upgrade onto each CN2B Computer you
want to upgrade. The SmartSystems Console will tell you that it is
installing the upgrade on your CN2B Computer.
Once the upgrade is done downloading to your CN2B Computer, your
CN2B Computer replaces the operating system and then automatically
performs a cold boot. Progress messages do appear on the CN2B screen.
The SmartSystems Console will show your CN2B Computer as offline
(note the red stop sign) until the device reboots and reconnects to the system.
