3.15 FIRMWARE UPDATE
The Datalogic JOYA™ X1 is equipped with a tool that implements a firmware
update service.
This tool, called
Datalogic Updater ( DLUpdater ), is compatible with all
hardware versions of the Datalogic WindowsCE 6.0 models:
An update can be explicitly invoked by running the application
DLUpdater.exe ,
provided together with the update file DLUpdate.zip . The update must be
contained in the root.
CAUTION
It is advisable, even if not binding, to connect the terminal to
an external power source before starting the update
process. This prevents the terminal from turning off while
running and avoids a corruption of flash content.
CAUTION
After the update process, all the data stored in the backup
folder could be irreparably lost, as well as the device
configuration (even that one stored in persistent memory).
Therefore, before starting a firmware update it is advisable
to run a backup copy of the data you want to preserve on
PC (e.g. using ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device
Center Connection).
