If the File is an Installer
An installer program is one that installs to the workstation and the terminal simultaneously; one process
installs to both devices.
1. On the workstation, double-click the *.exe or *.setup.exe file. The installation wizard begins.
2. Follow the directions on the workstation screen.
The installation process includes transferring the software to the terminal via ActiveSync.
If the File is Not an Installer
Some programs cannot be installed on workstations because they are designed exclusively for Windows
CE devices. In these cases, the appropriate files must be stored on the host workstation and transferred
to the terminal via ActiveSync Explore.
Note: You know that the program is not an installer because an error message stating that the program is valid but
designed for a different type of computer appears when you try to install the program on the workstation .
1. If you cannot find any installation instructions for the program in the Read Me file or documentation,
open
ActiveSync on the workstation and click Explore .
2. On the workstation, navigate to the workstation folder containing the program file(s) and copy them
to the
Program Files folder on the terminal.
If you want the program to persist through hard resets, paste the program to the Autoinstall folder
(
\Honeywell\AutoInstall
).
3. On the terminal Desktop, tap My Device and, in Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder where the
program is located.
4. Double tap on the program file to install it.
If you copied the file to the
Autoinstall folder, you can choose to install the program by performing a
hard reset. The program installs as part of initialization.
5. After installation is complete, access the program by tapping Start > Programs , and the program
appears on the Programs screen. Tap the icon to open the program.
Wireless Radios
There are two radio options: 802.11b/g and Bluetooth.
1. 802.11b/g (WPAN/WLAN configuration) : see WLAN (802.11b/g Radio) , below.
2. Bluetooth (WPAN configuration): see Bluetooth Handler on page 7-1.
Connecting the Terminal to a Wireless Network
You connect the terminal to a wireless network through the on-board radio (802.11b/g and/or Bluetooth).
Each radio has its own configuration program and requires specific information about the wireless
network to connect. Successful connection depends on your network infrastructure about which you will
need specific information from your network administrator.
WLAN (802.11b/g Radio)
Dolphin 6500s can have a 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) radio that uses Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology. The radio is interoperable with other 802.11b/g, Wi-Fi-
compliant products including access points (APs), workstations via PC card adapters, and other wireless
portable devices.
