CN3 Series Mobile Computer User’s Manual 109
Installing Applications Using Wavelink Avalanche
You can use the Wavelink Avalanche device management system
to install applications on all of your wireless CN3s. The CN3
ships with the Avalanche Enabler already loaded on it.
Each time the Avalanche Enabler is activated (typically on a
reset), the CN3 attempts to connect to the Avalanche Agent.
When the CN3 connects to the agent, the agent determines
whether an update is available and immediately starts the
software upgrade, file transfer, or configuration update.
To use Avalanche to remotely manage the CN3
1 Install software packages and updates for the CN3 using the
Avalanche Administrative console.
2 Schedule the CN3 updates or manually initiate an update
using the Avalanche Administrative console.
For more information on using Wavelink Avalanche, contact
your local Intermec representative or visit the Wavelink web site
at www.wavelink.com.
Freeing Up Virtual Memory for Applications
You can use the InstallSelect application to reduce the amount of
virtual memory used by portions of the SmartSystems Platform
Bundle (SSPB). Freeing up virtual memory provides you with
more space to load and run custom applications. In technical
terms, virtual memory allows software to run in a memory
address space whose size and addressing are not necessarily tied to
the physical memory of the computer.
Note: If you manually activate the Avalanche Enabler on the
CN3, you may be prompted for a password when you exit the
Avalanche Enabler. The default password is
leave.
Note: InstallSelect is designed for use only by administrators,
developers, integrators, or Intermec service representatives.
Note: Do not run InstallSelect while using any other applications.
