CN3 Series Mobile Computer Users Manual for Windows Mobile 5.0

Chapter 1 Using the CN3

Use the Windows Mobile Classic profile for systems that batch data and upload it several times a day. This profile does not support constant data connections over WAN, LAN, or Bluetooth. It can only maintain data connections when the CN3 is on and all peripherals are enabled. If the screen is off, you do not have any WAN, LAN, or Bluetooth connections, but the CN3 will still receive incoming phone calls. To wake up the CN3 and restore network connections, you need to press Power or Scan button. Use the Windows Mobile Standard profile for applications such as inventory management or terminal emulation applications that power off infrequently. The Windows Mobile Standard profile adds the ability for the system to maintain data connections in a low power state. If the CN3 does not have any activity, the screen will turn off. If there continues to be no activity, the CN3 will eventually turn off the WAN, LAN, or Bluetooth radio connections and enter the Windows Mobile Classic power management profile. Use the Windows Mobile Phone profile when you have a system that requires network wake-up or you need the CN3 to always be connected to the network. Although the connections are maintained at a low power mode, this setting typically consumes the most power. If the screen turns off, the radios continue to maintain the network connections. To select a power management profile 1 Tap Start > Settings > the System tab > Power Profiler.

Developing Applications for the CN3


The CN3 runs applications programmed in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. You can also use Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 to program applications, but some features may not be available. Use this section to understand the hardware and software you need to develop a new application for the computer. Use the Intermec resource kits to develop new applications to run on the CN3. The Intermec resource kits are a library of C++ and .NET components grouped by functionality that you can use to create applications for the computer. The resource kits are part of the Intermec Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded from the Intermec website at www.intermec.com/idl. You need the following hardware and software components to use the resource kits: Pentium desktop, 400 MHz or higher Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or later) or Windows XP (Home, Professional, or Server) For native and managed development, Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 128 MB RAM (196 MB recommended) 360 MB hard drive space for minimum installation (720 MB for complete) CD-ROM drive compatible with multimedia desktop specification VGA or higher-resolution monitor (Super VGA recommended) Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device

Installing Applications on the CN3


There are several ways you can install applications on your mobile computer: You can package your application as a cabinet (.cab) file. If you have a simple application, you may only need to deliver the .exe file.
CN3 Series Mobile Computer Users Manual for Windows Mobile 5.0

Chapter 3 Developing and Installing Applications

You can copy a directory structure that contains the application, supporting files, DLLs, images, and data files.

Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications. The mobile computer uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install third-party .cab files. You can have your .cab files place your application in any of these memory locations on the mobile computer: The Object Store or the Flash File Store. The Object Store is a DiskOnChip flash that looks like a disk. The Flash File Store is an area of storage which is embedded in a section of the system flash memory. This storage is not erased during a reset, although it might be erased during the reflashing process. In addition to storing applications and data files, you have the option to store persistent registry information to the Flash File Store region. The optional miniSD card. If you are using a miniSD card, this should be the primary location to place application installation files. The miniSD card creates the Storage Card folder on the CN3. The non-volatile Flash File Store region of the storage. Use the small non-volatile Flash File Store region to hold .cab files that rebuild the system at clean boot or install applications from a .cab file into the Flash File Store so that they are ready-to-run when you perform clean boot. Since the flash in the system has a limited number of write cycles, do not use the Flash File Store for excessive writing.

Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the computer as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate location. You can find information about this system in the Intermec Developers Library (IDL) Resource Kit Developers Guide which is available from www.intermec.com/idl. When you copy a .cab file to the \CabFiles folder, the folder automatically extracts that .cab file on every cold boot. There are several ways you can install files and applications on the computer: SmartSystems Foundation ActiveSync miniSD card
