Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer
38 CK60 Mobile Computer with Windows CE User’s Manual
For the CK60, .cab files register DLLs, create shortcuts, modify registry
entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a .cab file to extract that file
or place the .cab file on one of the approved storage devices in the
“\CabFiles” folder, then perform a warm-boot on the CK60. There are two
methods available to extract a .cab file:
• Tap a .cab file to extract it. With this method, the .cab file is
automatically deleted when the extraction process is successful, unless the
.cab file is set with the read-only attribute.
• Use the AutoCab method to extract all files when a cold-boot is
performed on the CK60. This method is available in the Software Tools
User’s Manual via the IDL, which is downloadable from the Intermec
web site at www.intermec.com/idl. Contact your Intermec
representative for information.
Installing Applications on the Computer
Consider any of these options to get the package to the preferred location
on your CK60:
• Microsoft ActiveSync (below)
• Secure Digital storage cards (page 39)
• SmartSystems™ Console (page 40)
Using Microsoft ActiveSync
You can use Microsoft ActiveSync to establish a connection between your
PC and the CK60. Microsoft ActiveSync transfers files, synchronizes files,
performs remote debugging, and other device management activities.
See Chapter 2 “Windows CE” for information about the Microsoft
ActiveSync application as provided by Microsoft Corporation.
This can be a serial, a USB, or an 802.11b/g Microsoft ActiveSync
connection. Files can be copied using Windows Explorer on a PC or a
laptop computer. This is usually good when updating a few CK60s.
These instructions assume that Microsoft ActiveSync was installed onto
your PC and is up and running. If not, go to Chapter 2 “Windows CE”
for an URL from which to download the latest application.
1 Connect the CK60 to a PC using a USB or serial cable. You may have to
detach, then reattach the cable to “wake” the connection.
2 Wait for a “Connected” message to appear in the Microsoft ActiveSync
application to signal a connection to the CK60. If necessary, select File >
Get Connected to initiate a connection or detach, then reattach the USB
or serial cable.
