imentation. In most fixed installations the antenna should be mounted iniĆ
tially in a vertically polarized position, with the cable from the antenna parĆ
allel to the floor/ceiling.
Horizontal Polarization
Vertical Polarization
In mobile installations, best performance will be achieved by mounting the
antenna flat, on top of the operator safety cage. Use at least two screws to
hold the antenna in place.

DHCP
Windows Device ConfigurationsChapter —4
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled by default in
Windows CE. You can configure the registry settings in the following to
set the required AutoIP/DHCP behavior:
S For Ethernet: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\LAN9001\TcpIp
S Fot 802.11b: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\NETWLAN1\TcpIp
Other registry keys that can modify the behavior of AutoIP are as follows.
You can find the appropriate settings and behavior of each of these keys in
Microsoft Help.
S AutoInterval
S AutoMask
S AutoSubnet
S AutoIP
S AutoSeed
When a TCP/IP client cannot find a DHCP server, it generates an AutoIP
address from the 169.254.xxx.xxx block. The client then tries to check for
a DHCP server every 300 seconds (5 minutes) and if a DHCP server is
found, the client drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the
DHCP server.
,See Automatic Client Configuration" for more information on AutoIP.In
the MSDN Windows CE documentation available on the Microsoft DeĆ
veloper Network web site (http://www.msdn.com).
To disable AutoIP, set the AutoCfg registry entry to 0." If a DHCP server
cannot be found, instead of using AutoIP, the system will display the UnĆ
able to obtain a server assigned IP address" message.
Note: If AutoIP is defined using CAB files, the EnableDHCP registry key
must also be defined and set to 1" before the system will attempt to obĆ
tain a DHCP address.
Note: To extend the number of attempts that a DHCP client makes to get
a DHCP address, use the DhcpRetryDialogue and DhcpMaxRetry registry
settings.
Note: Change the AutoInterval registry key value to make the client retry
more often to obtain a DHCP address.

Wireless Printing
Note: PCI-E100CE1" is for Ethernet and "802.11b Wireless LAN" is for
802.11b radios.
Bluetooth" is the name given to a technology standard using shortĆrange
radio links, intended to replace the cables connecting portable and fixed
electronic devices. The standard defines a uniform structure for a wide
range of devices to communicate with each other, with minimal user efĆ
fort. Its key features are robustness, low complexity, low power, and low
cost. The technology also offers wireless access to LANs, the mobile phone
network, and the internet for a host of home appliances and portable
handĆheld interfaces.
The Wireless Printing control panel separates the task of wireless printing
from the other Bluetooth management items not relevant to this task.
Wireless Printing has a concept of the current wireless printer". This
printer is the one to which the CV60 makes a connection when the wireĆ
less printing COM port is opened. If there is no current wireless printer,
there is no wireless printing COM port. Registration and deregistration of
this COM port is controlled by BTCC. The Wp_quickset_l.exe executable
calls BTCC when a printer is chosen to handle the COM port registration.
Customer software or other test applications can also use BTCC to manage
the COM port registration and deregistration.
The current wireless printer is stored in the registry and is registered and
deregistered on Bluetooth stack load/unload. If the current wireless printer
changes, the existing wireless printing COM port is deregistered, and the
60 CV60 Vehicle-Mount Computer User's Manual

new one is registered instead. The registered COM port is stored in the
registry as the WPPort.
Windows CE
The following information pertains to the Windows CE operating system.
Wireless Printing
There are currently three ways to set the wireless printer. You can use a
Bluetooth device discovery to locate the remote device, you can manually
enter the remote Bluetooth Device Address, or you can use the Bluetooth
Device Manager to choose from previously discovered printers.
Use a Bluetooth Device Discovery
You can set your wireless printer via a Bluetooth Device Discovery, which
takes about half a minute to locate all Bluetooth devices in your range.
1 From the CV60 desktop, select Start > Settings > Control Panel, then
doubleĆclick the Wireless Printing desktop icon.

How to configure tethered scanners 1551E/1553/1800/1400
Tethered scanners can be configured from the Intermec Settings" on the
CV60. Follow these steps:
1 Connect a tethered scanner to the tethered scanner port.
2 Under the tethered scanner folder, select the scanner model to match the
attached scanner type. If the scanner port state is not already enabled,
then enable it.
Note: during this process the terminal is trying to communicate to the atĆ
tached scanner.
You will see a Failed to save one or more settings" message if:
S the scanner is not powered
S the cable is not properly connected
S if the wrong cable is used
S if the scanner firmware is older than version 2.0.
Note: that this process can take up to 8 seconds since the terminal is going
through a group of RS323 settings to trying to communicate with the
scanner.
The auto-baud process is performed whenever the scanner port state is
changed from Disable to Enable or whenever the 1551E/1553 is selected
from the scanner model list and the scanner port state is enabled.
If the auto-baud process is successful, about eight beeps will be generated,
and it is followed by another series of beeps depending on the firmware
version installed in the scanner. The latter series of beeps are suppressed
since FW 2.08.

Converting a Trakker Antares Application to a CV60 CE Application
If you have an existing Trakker Antares application that you would like to
run on the CV60, you can use the Programmer's Software Kit (PSK) to
convert it. The CV60 PSK is a set of libraries and tools that you use to
convert your existing Trakker Antares C applications into C/C++ applicaĆ
tions for use on your CV60 CE Data Collection Computer.
Note: Only CV60 CE supports the PSK.
The CV60 does not support all Trakker Antares PSK functions. You may
need to rewrite parts of your application when converting it for use on the
CV60.
See the PSK online manual for a list of functions that are not supported.
You need these hardware and software components to use the PSK:
S PC with at least 300 MB of free disk space running Microsoft WinĆ
dows 2000/XP.
S Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ version 4.0 with Service Pack 2

Developing and Installing ApplicationsChapter —5
Installing Applications on the CV60
You can install files and applications on the CV60 several ways; if you have
a simple application, you might only need to deliver the EXE file. You can
simply copy a directory structure that contains the application, supporting
files, DLLs, images, sound files, and data files to the device.
For CV60 CE, you can package your application as a cabinet (CAB) file.
The delivery methods are:
S ActiveSync
S Wavelink Avalanche
S Drive mapping.
The following sections explain each of these processes you use to install
your application on the CV60.
All CV60:
Installing Applications Using Wavelink Avalanche
You can use the Wavelink Avalanche device management system to install
applications on all of your wireless CV60s.
The CV60 ships with the Avalanche Enabler already installed. Each time
the Avalanche Enabler is activated (typically on a warm boot), the CV60
attempts to connect to the Avalanche Agent. When the CV60 connects to
the agent, the agent determines whether an update is available and immeĆ
diately starts the software upgrade, file transfer, or configuration update.
CV60 CE only:
To use Avalanche to remotely manage the CV60
1 Install software packages and updates for the CV60 using the Avalanche
Administrative Console.
2 Schedule the CV60 updates or manually initiate an update using the
Avalanche Administrative Console.
For more information on using Wavelink Avalanche, contact your local
Intermec representative or visit the Wavelink web site
at www.wavelink.com.
Using ActiveSync to Install Applications
You can use ActiveSync to establish a connection between your desktop PC
and the CV60 CE. ActiveSync allows you to transfer files, synchronize files,
perform remote debugging, and other device management activities.
ActiveSync is a free application available from the Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com (search for ActiveSync).
To establish a partnership between your desktop PC and the CV60 CE,
you will need:
S Female-to-female null modem serial cable
S ActiveSync version 3.7 or later.
