Update Individual Mobile Computers Using a microSD Card
You can transfer upgrade bundles from your desktop PC to your
mobile computer using a storage card. Before you can update your
mobile computer, you need:
• the SmartSystems bundles you want to install. These
SmartSystems bundles are available from the Intermec website at
www.intermec.com. Go to Support > Downloads >
OS/Firmware/Drivers list.
• a microSD card formatted to FAT or FAT32.
After you have located these items, you can update your mobile
computer using a storage card.
1 Download the SmartSystems bundle to your PC and note the
download location.
2 On your desktop PC, navigate to the download location and select
the folder with the correct firmware version. For example,
umts_wwe or umts_lp.
3 Transfer the autoflash.img file into the root directory of the SD
card.
4 Turn off your mobile computer and install the microSD card in
your mobile computer. For help, see “Insert a MicroSD Card” on
page 16.
5 Turn on your mobile computer.
The update process begins. Your mobile computer may restart
several times during this process. When the update is complete, the
Autoflash Complete message appears.
6 Remove the microSD card.
7 Reboot your mobile computer and follow the setup process.
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.
Note: If you do not remove the storage card, the update process
repeats each time the computer reboots.
