III. ML Administrator Application Upgrade Procedure
ML Administrator Application (MLAA)
is an optional application intended for use by System
Administrator (SA) personnel to configure the parameters of various functions in the notebook, like
the default configuration that automatically loads when the ML910 notebook is turned on. As such,
this application is normally installed only when needed by System Administrators and then removed.
Note
MLAA
is required for initially configuring the ML910 RF Pass-through
feature to operate in a ML900 docking station that has the RF Retrofit kit
installed. By default, the ML910 notebook will assume the ML900 dock is
not compatible and RF will not switch to its pass-through connectors.
Please refer to the ML910 Rugged Notebook User Guide, 6871008P31-B,
for configuration instructions.
Note: This procedure assumes that the
ML Service
and
ML User Application
version 4.A are
already installed on the target system.
