2 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

Use this manual to understand how to use the features and options available
on the CK61.
CK61s with an IEEE 802.11a/b/g radio installed are Wi-Fi certified for
interoperability with other 802.11a/b/g wireless LAN devices.

What’s New
The CK61 is now available with a near-far area imager option.

Learning Software Build Versions

The Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) is an area of storage which is
embedded in a section of the system’s FLASH memory. This storage area is
not erased when a cold boot is performed. It may, however, erase during the
reflashing process. In addition to storing applications and data files, you can
store a persistent registry to the PSM region.
To learn the PSM build version or operating system version
1 Select Start > Internet Explorer.
2 Note the information beneath the CK61 Version Information title.

3 Tap the Close icon in the top right corner to exit Internet Explorer.

Resetting Your Computer

You may need to reset your computer if:
• the CK61 completely stops responding.
• an application is locked up and stops responding.
• you upgrade the firmware, or you reflash the CK61.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 3

Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

Preferred Reset Method

This procedure is the recommended method in recovering the CK61. It
performs a graceful system shutdown and no data is lost in the process.
To recover the CK61
• Press and hold the power switch on the front of the CK61 for about 10
seconds.

Secondary Reset Method

If performing the recommended reset method does not restore system
operation, try using this method. It does not guarantee that cached disk
data is saved, and as such, transactional data may be lost during the reset.
All other data is preserved.
To press the reset button
1 Press the power switch to suspend the CK61, then remove the battery
pack from the back of the CK61.
2 With a stylus, press the reset button in the battery cavity in the back.

Press this reset button with your stylus.

Do not use force or a sharp object when pressing the reset button. You
may damage the reset button.

3 Press and hold the power switch as you put the battery back in.

Performing a Clean Boot

If performing either reset method fails to restore system operation, you may
have to perform a clean boot. This is a boot method which formats the
object store to clean data and registry information from the CK61 system
and restores them to their factory-default state.
Note: This will erase the memory in the CK61, including all applications
and data files found in the object store (user store). See “Packaging
Applications for the Computer” on page 80 for more information.
To perform a clean boot
1 Press the power switch to suspend the CK61.
2 Remove the battery pack from the back of the CK61.

3 With a stylus, press the reset button in the battery cavity in the back.
4 Press and hold the power switch as you put the battery back in the unit.
5 Continue to hold the power switch until a Warning message appears on
the display.
6 Release the power switch, then read the message.
7 To continue with the clean boot, press the right side button. To cancel
the clean boot, press the left side button.

Scanning Bar Codes

Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection of the laser
beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term exposure to the laser beam
can damage your vision.

Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of scanner you
are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you
scan the bar code. The CK61 supports the scanning of 2D images. Plus, if
you are using an integrated handle or a tethered scanner, the way you scan
bar codes is different.
When you unpack the CK61, the Code 39, UPC/EAN, and PDF417 (if
supported) bar code symbologies are enabled.
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different symbology,
you need to enable the symbology on the computer. Use the Intermec
Settings applet to enable and disable symbologies for your scanner. For help
on using the Intermec Settings applet, see “Using the Intermec Settings
Applet” on page 17.

Reading Distances
Typical reading distances are done in an office environment using office
lights (4 lux). Minimum distances are measured in the dark (0 lux). Both
reading distances are provided in respective scan engine integration guides.
Contact your Intermec representative for more information.
The minimum standard reading distances for CK61s built with integrated
scan engines are shown on the next several pages. When correctly mounted,
an exit window reduces reading distances by about 4% for all scan engines,
with the exception of the EL10 with its reading distances reduced by 25%.

Scanning with a Standard or Near-Far Range Area Imager

Your CK61 may come with one of two types of area imagers:
• standard area imager
• near-far area imager

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 9

Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

Both area imagers allow you to scan 2D bar code symbologies and support
omni-directional (360°) scanning. Omni-directional scanning means that
you can position the CK61 in any orientation to scan a bar code label.
Using an area imager is very similar to taking digital pictures.
Scanning with a Standard Area Imager
The standard area imager comes equipped with an aiming beam to help you
scan bar codes. Use the following procedure to scan a bar code with the
standard area imager.
To scan a bar code label with the standard area imager
1 Press the power switch to turn on the CK61.
2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CK61
steady and pointed at the label.
3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on a handle and
center the red aiming beam over the bar code label.
4 The aiming beam is smaller when the imager is closer to the bar code
and larger when it is further away.
5 When the CK61 successfully reads a bar code label, you hear a high
beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.
6 Release the Scan button or the trigger.
Scanning with a Near-Far Area Imager
The near-far range area imager allows you to scan a bar code a both near
and far distances. It is equipped with a laser pointer to help you aim at bar
codes.
To scan a bar code label with the near-far area imager
1 Press the power switch to turn on the CK61.
2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CK61
steady and pointed at the label.
3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on the handle.
The illumination beam and laser pointer appear.
For near or close-in scanning distances of 30 cm (11.8 in) or less, use the
laser pointer and aim slightly to the right of center of the bar code.
Make sure the illumination beam covers the bar code you are trying to
decode.
For standard and long range scanning distances of 30 cm (11.8 in) or
more, use the laser pointer and aim towards the middle of the bar code.
Make sure the illumination beam covers the bar code you are trying to
decode.
Note: For near (close-in), standard, and long-range scanning, the
illumination beam must be completely over the bar code. The laster pointer
acts as a guide and does not need to be on the bar code.

10 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

4 When the CK61 successfully reads a bar code label, you hear a high
beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.
5 Release the Scan button or the trigger.
If there are multiple bar codes in one area, you should enable the center-
decoding option to read your bar codes. The center-decoding option
only decodes a bar code if:
• the laser pointer is on the bar code.
• the illumination beam covers the bar code.
Before you can use the center-decoding option you must enable it using
Intermec settings.
To select the center-decoding option
• Tap Start >Settings > System >Intermec Settings > Data Collection
> Decode Security > Center Decoding.
Note: Use the same steps to disable the center-decoding option.

To scan a bar code using center-decoding

1 Press the power switch to turn on the CK61.
2 Point the scanner window at the bar code label and hold the CK61
steady and pointed at the label.
3 Press the Scan button on the keypad or pull the trigger on the handle.
The illumination beam and the laser pointer appear.
4 Aim both the illumination beam and the laser pointer at the bar code
you want to scan.
5 When the CK61 successfully reads a bar code label, you hear a high
beep and the green Good Read light turns on briefly.
6 Release the Scan button or the trigger.
If you have problems scanning a bar code with the area imager, try
following some of these tips to improve the performance of your imager:
• Keep your hand as steady as possible while scanning a label.
• Make sure that Aimer LED Duration is set to zero.
• Position the imager as close to the bar code as possible while still being
able to capture the entire bar code.
• Enable only the bar codes that you need to use every day.

 Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

• SR61
There are a number of different scan engines covered by these models,
including RFID and XLR scan engines. Model 1555 and Scan Image 1470
are supported as input devices only; configuration of these models are
accomplished by scanning labels.

Using the Ambient Light Sensor

The ambient light sensor automatically turns off the display lighting as
surrounding light increases to conserve your CK61 battery power.
As configured from the factory, the ambient light sensor is disabled.
To enable the ambient light sensor and change its settings
1 Tap Start > Settings> the System tab > the Backlight icon.
2 Tap the right arrow to scroll to and tap the Both Power tab.
3 Make your selections, then tap ok to close.

This assumes the backlight setting once the CK61

Computer is powered on.

This turns off the ambient light sensor.

This disables the backlight in normal environments.
This disables the backlight in bright environments.

Using the Battery

The CK61 uses a 17.3 Watt-hour, 7.2V, replaceable Lithium-Ion (Li-ion)
battery. You must fully charge the battery before you can use the CK61.
When you change the battery, a backup battery (super capacitor) maintains
your status, memory, and real-time clock for at least 10 minutes. Put the
CK61 into suspend (sleep) mode before you remove the battery.
The Li-ion Battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical
burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it above
100°C (212°F) or incinerate it.

If you fail to replace the battery immediately, you may lose important
state or applications.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 13

Chapter 1 — Using the Computer

Dispose of used batteries promptly. Keep away from children. Contact your
Intermec representative for replacements.
Several factors determine the life of your battery, such as extreme
temperatures, input devices, and your usage. For example, if you use a
tethered scanner every day, you need to replace your battery more often
than someone who uses an internal scanner.
Note: The CK61 has an internal backup super capacitor which retains data
for an average of ten minutes after the battery is removed. It also shuts
down the CK61 if the battery suddenly goes away (removed from the
computer). Depending upon the processes running, it may not have
adequate power for a graceful shut down. If so, the CK61 performs a cold
boot the next time power is applied.
Intermec recommends that you put the CK61 in a suspend (sleep) mode
before you remove the battery.

You can configure the battery power fail level so that after the system shuts
down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the
unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM
(Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least ten minutes at room
temperature if the battery remains in the CK61, using the Power applet (see
page 16). The state and time are lost if the battery discharges beyond this
level, or the battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.

Changing and Installing the Battery

Make sure you fully charge the battery before you install it in your CK61;
and that you take at least 20 minutes to initially charge the backup battery
before the backup system is fully functional.
To charge the battery
• Either insert the battery into the quad battery charger, or
• Place the CK61 with battery installed in a single dock, a single dock
with modem, or a multidock. The battery charge time is four hours or
less on any of these docks if the temperature is within battery charging
range.
• You could also use a power adapter to keep the CK61 on full power.
For maximum efficiency, store your CK61 on external power with which to
charge your batteries. For more information on these accessories, see
“Accessories for the CK61” on page 26.
To install the battery, insert the tabs on the bottom of the charged battery
into the CK61 and snap the battery into place.

Tips for getting good recognition:

• Write neatly.
• Write on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross
of the “t” and apostrophes below the top line so they are not confused
with the word above. Write periods and commas above the baseline.
• For better recognition, try increasing the zoom level to 300% by
selecting Menu > Zoom. Recognition is not good under a 150% zoom.

38 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile

• Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so
that the application can easily tell where words begin and end.
• Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as
accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.
• If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an
“8”) after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add is not
included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.

Drawing on the Screen

You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen.
The difference between writing and drawing on the screen is how you select
items and how they are edited. For example, you can resize selected
drawings, while you cannot resize writing.
To create a drawing
• Select Menu > Draw, then draw a line to initiate a drawing box.
Subsequent strokes in or touching the drawing box become part of the
drawing.

The drawing box indicates the boundaries of the drawing

If you want to edit or format a drawing, you must select it first.

To select a drawing
• Tap and hold the stylus on the drawing until the selection handle
appears.
• To select multiple drawings, deselect the Pen icon and then drag to
select the drawings you want.
You can cut, copy, and paste selected drawings by tapping and holding the
selected drawing and then tapping an editing command on the pop-up
menu, or by tapping the command under Menu. To resize a drawing, make

Microsoft ActiveSync
Using Microsoft ActiveSync, you can synchronize the information on your
desktop with the information on your CK61. Synchronization compares
the data on your CK61 with your desktop and updates both computers
with the most recent information. For example:
• Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your CK61
with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop.
• Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your
CK61 and desktop. Your files are converted to the correct format.
Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types
of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on or off
for specific information types.
With ActiveSync, you can also:
• Back up and restore your CK61 data.
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your CK61 and desktop.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization
mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to
your desktop or only when you choose the synchronize command.
• Select which information types are synchronized and control how much
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of
past appointments you want synchronized.
Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop from
the Windows Mobile Companion CD. For more information on installing
ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on
your CK61.
After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you
connect your CK61 to your desktop, set up a partnership so you can
synchronize information between your CK61 and your desktop, and
customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization process
automatically begins when finished using the wizard.
After your first synchronization, look at Calendar and Contacts on your
CK61. Notice that information you have stored in Microsoft Outlook on
your desktop was copied to your CK61, and you did not have to type a
word. Disconnect the CK61 from your computer and you are ready to go!
Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization

Microsoft Pocket Outlook

Microsoft Pocket Outlook includes Calendar, Contacts, Messaging, and
Notes. You can use these programs individually or together. For example,
you can use e-mail addresses stored in Contacts to address e-mail messages
in Messaging.
Using ActiveSync, you can synchronize information in Microsoft Outlook
or Microsoft Exchange on your desktop with your CK61. You can also
synchronize this information directly with a Microsoft Exchange server.
Each time you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the changes you made on
your CK61 and desktop or server and updates both computers with the
latest information. For information on using ActiveSync, see ActiveSync
Help on the desktop.
You can switch to any program by tapping it on the Start menu.

Calendar: Scheduling Appointments and Meetings

To switch to Calendar on the CK61, tap Start > Calendar.
Use Calendar to schedule appointments, including meetings and other
events. You can check your appointments in one of several views (Day,
Week, Month, Year, and Agenda) and set Calendar to remind you of
appointments with a sound or other method.
Appointments for the day can display on the Today screen.

Synchronizing Calendar
Calendar items stored on your CK61 can be synchronized with calendar
items on your desktop or Microsoft Exchange Server. (Note that you can
only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server if your
company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002 or later.)
Calendar synchronization is automatically selected in ActiveSync.
Calendar items entered on one computer are copied to the other during
synchronization. Handwritten notes and drawings are saved as metafiles
(pictures).
For information on synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.

Why Use Categories in the Calendar?

Use categories to group related tasks, contacts, and appointments. Then,
use these groupings to quickly display only the information you want. For
example, you can easily share your CK61 with another by assigning your
appointments to a category with a special project’s name. You can then use
this category to filter Calendar and only display appointments for that
project.
Note: In Month View, the day of an appointment assigned to the Holiday
category appears in red.

What’s an All Day Event?

An appointment can either be a normal appointment or an all-day event,
which lasts the full day or spans many days. Examples include a trade show,
a vacation, or a seminar. You can also use all day events to schedule an
annual event, such as a birthday or anniversary. In this case, change the
Status box to Free (you may need to scroll to see it) so that it does not show
time as busy in your calendar. All day events do not occupy blocks of time
in Calendar; they appear in banners at the top of the calendar.
Note: You cannot modify or create all-day events with attendees on the
CK61. If you create all day events with attendees on your desktop, use
ActiveSync to copy such events to the CK61, then view them in Calendar.
For more information on copying files, see ActiveSync Help.

To use the CK61 to schedule an appointment with attendees lasting all day
• Set type to “Normal,” then adjust the date and time appropriately.

What’s a Recurrence Pattern?

If you have an appointment or task that you do on a regular basis, such as a
weekly team meeting or a monthly status report, enter the item once and
set a recurrence pattern for it. If the default patterns in the list are not what
you need, you can create your own pattern using the wizard.

on synchronization or file conversion, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop.
Note: When you delete or change an item on either your desktop or the

you synchronize.

Note: If you synchronize your notes using file synchronization and then
later decide to use notes synchronization, all of your notes are synchronized
with Outlook on your desktop and no longer store in the “\My
Documents” folder for the CK61.

Messaging: Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages

To switch to Messaging on your CK61, tap Start > Messaging.
You can receive Internet e-mail messages in Messaging. Internet e-mail
messages are sent by using an address you receive from your Internet service
provider (ISP) or your employer.
You can send and receive e-mail by synchronizing with your desktop, or by
connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or Internet Message Access
Protocol 4 (IMAP4) mail server. You need to set up an e-mail account for
each method that you use except for Microsoft ActiveSync, which is set up
by default. The ActiveSync folder on your CK61 stores messages that you
send and receive through synchronization with a desktop. Account names
appear as folders in the folder list (located on the left, under the navigation
bar) in the Messaging message list.
With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the CK61 Inbox
and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or
Microsoft Outlook.
When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to
connect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet
card to connect to the local area network the e-mail server is connected.

Synchronizing E-mail Messages

After selecting Messaging for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail
messages are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process.
During synchronization:

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 65

Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile

• Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the
Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your CK61. (Note
that you can only synchronize information directly with an Exchange
Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server
2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from the last three days
only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less
than 100 KB in size.
• Messages in the Outbox folder on your CK61 are transferred to
Exchange or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
• The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a
message on your CK61, it is deleted from your desktop the next time
you synchronize.
• Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are
synchronized only if they were selected for synchronization in
ActiveSync.
For information on initiating Messaging synchronization or changing
synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or tap Start >
Help, then select a topic.

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders

Each e-mail account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders:
Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox, and Sent Items. The messages you
receive and send through the mail account are stored in these folders. You
can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items
folder contains messages that were deleted on the CK61. The behavior of
the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the Inbox options you
have chosen.
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, POP3, or IMAP4.
• If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook
automatically synchronize with your CK61. You can select to
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The
folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored on the
server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to
a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for
synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and
copies the messages into that folder. You then read messages away from
your desktop.
• If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created,
the link is broken between the messages on the CK61 and their copies
on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that
the messages are missing from the CK61 Inbox and deletes them from
the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message,
but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you
move to folders created from anywhere except the CK61.

66 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile

• If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to
you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your
CK61 or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you
connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders
when connected.
For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tapping
Menu > Tools > Manage Folders.

Connecting to a Mail Server

In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop, you can
send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a
modem or network card connected to your CK61. You need to set up a
remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail
server.
When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to
the CK61 Inbox folder, messages in the CK61 Outbox folder are sent, and
messages that were deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the CK61
Inbox folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your
e-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message on your
CK61, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you connect
based on the settings selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and
respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent
as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your CK61.
When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or
partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then decide
which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox
downloads the complete messages you have marked for retrieval and sends
the messages you have composed.
To set up a a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account
• Tap Menu > Tools > Options > New Account. Follow instructions in
the E-mail Setup Wizard.
To change options for an account
• Tap Menu > Tools > Options > the name of the account, and follow
the instructions on the screen.
To delete an account
• Tap Menu > Tools > Options, tap and hold the name of the account,
and then tap Delete.
Note: You can set up several e-mail accounts, including ActiveSync.

Downloading Messages from the Server

Note that receiving entire messages consumes storage memory. The size
column in the message list displays the local and server size of a message.
Even when a message is downloaded fully, these sizes may differ because the
size of a message can vary between the server and the CK61.
To download messages from the server
1 Tap Menu > Go To and ensure that the account you want to use is
selected (marked by a bullet.)
2 The messages on your CK61 and e-mail server are synchronized: new
messages are downloaded to the CK61 Inbox folder, messages in the
CK61 Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted from the
server are removed from the CK61 Inbox. Tap a message in the message
list to open it.
3 If you read a message and decide that you need the full copy, tap Menu
> Download Message while in the message window. If you are in the
message list, tap and hold the message, and then tap Download
Message. This also downloads message attachments if you selected
those options when you set up the e-mail account. You can also choose
to download full copies of messages by default.
4 When finished, close Messaging.

Composing and Sending Messages

Developing Applications for the Computer

CK61s run applications programmed in Microsoft Visual Studios 2005.
Use this chapter to understand what you need to develop a new application
for the CK61.
Note: Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 may be used, but some features
are not available.

To develop applications for your CK61, use the Resource Kits in the
Intermec Developer Library (IDL). Download the IDL from the Intermec
web site at www.intermec.com/idl. Contact your Intermec representative
for more information.
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
For more information, see the Intermec Developer Library Developer’s Guide
(P/N 934-006-003)

Packaging Applications for the Computer

Use any of these methods to package applications for installation:
• You could package an application as a cabinet (.cab) file.
• For simple applications, the application itself may be the file to deliver.
• It could be a directory structure that contains the application,
supporting files like ActiveX controls, DLLs, images, sound files, and
data files.
Consider any of the following when choosing a location into which to store
your application:
• In the basic CK61, there are two built-in storage options: the Object
Store and the Flash File Store. The Object Store is a Disk on Chip
(DOC) Flash that looks like a disk. The Flash File Store is an area of

80 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

storage which is embedded in a section of the system’s FLASH memory.

This storage area is not erased during a cold boot. It will, however, be
erased during the clean boot process.
• If the optional Secure Digital storage card is in the system, then consider
this card the primary location for placing an applications install files.
This storage card creates the “\Storage Card” folder.
• Use the small nonvolatile Flash File Store region to hold .cab files that
rebuild the system at cold boot or install applications from a .cab file
into the Flash File Store so they are “ready-to-run” when a cold boot or
clean boot is performed. Since the FLASH in the system has a limited
number of write cycles, do not use the Flash File Store for excessive
writing purposes; however, reading is okay.
CAB files (short form of “cabinet” files) are compressed folders as defined by
Microsoft. A “cabinet” file is a single file, usually suffixed with ..cab, that
stores compressed files in a file library. A compressed file can be spread over
several cabinet files. During installation, the setup application decompresses
the files stored in a cabinet and copies them to the user’s system. Intermec
recommends using .cab files to install your applications. The CK61 uses
standard Windows Mobile .cab files and does install third-party .cab files.
For the CK61, .cab files register DLLs, create shortcuts, modify registry
entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a .cab file to extract that file or
place the .cab file on one of the approved storage devices in the
“\CabFiles” folder, then perform a warm boot on the CK61. There are two
methods available to extract a .cab file:
• Tap a .cab file to extract it. With this method, the .cab file is
automatically deleted when the extraction process is successful, unless
the .cab file is set with the read-only attribute.
• Use the AUTOCAB method to extract all files when a cold boot or
clean boot is performed on the CK61. This method is in the IDL via the
Intermec web site.

Installing Applications on the Computer

Consider any of these options to get the package to the preferred location
on your CK61:
• Microsoft ActiveSync (page 82)
• Secure Digital storage cards (page 83)
• Wavelink Avalanche (page 83)
• SmartSystems™ Console (page 84)

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 81

Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

Using Microsoft ActiveSync

You can use Microsoft ActiveSync to establish a connection between your
desktop and the CK61. Microsoft ActiveSync transfers files, synchronizes
files, performs remote debugging, and other device management activities.
See Chapter 2, “Windows Mobile” for information about the Microsoft
ActiveSync application as provided by Microsoft Corporation.
This can be a serial or a USB Microsoft ActiveSync connection. Files can be
copied using Windows Explorer on a desktop or a laptop computer. This is
usually good when updating few CK61s.
These instructions assume that Microsoft ActiveSync was installed onto
your desktop and is up and running. If not, go to Chapter 2, “Windows
Mobile” for an URL from which to download the latest application.
1 Connect your CK61 to your desktop using a USB or serial cable. You
may have to detach, then reattach the cable to “wake” the connection.
2 Wait for a “Connected” message to appear in the Microsoft ActiveSync
application to signal a connection to the CK61. If necessary, select File
> Get Connected to initiate a connection or detach, then reattach the
USB or serial cable.

3 Click Explore to access the “\Mobile Device” folder on your unit.

4 From your desktop, select Start > Windows Explorer, then browse the
“C:\Intermec\CK61 Mgmt Tools\CabFiles” path for any .cab files
needed for your CK61. Select the appropriate file, right-click the file for
a pop-up menu, then select Copy.
5 Within the “\My Windows Mobile-Based Device” directory, go to the
directory where you want the files located on the CK61, do a right-click
for a pop-up menu, then select Paste.
6 When all of the files are pasted, perform a warm boot on the CK61.
When the computer reboots, wait for the LED on the top left of your
keypad to stop blinking. Tap Start > Programs > the File Explorer icon
to locate the newly copied executable files, then tap these files to activate
their utilities.

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

Using a Storage Card

If you have a Secure Digital storage card for your CK61, this is the best
place for you to installation applications.
1 If you are using a Secure Digital card reader, suspend the CK61, remove
its Secure Digital storage card, and place it in the reader. For help, see
“Using the Secure Digital Card” on page 21.
2 Copy your application file to the Secure Digital card. If you are using
Microsoft ActiveSync to copy the files to the Secure Digital card, place
the application in the “\Storage Card” folder on the CK61.
3 If using a Secure Digital card reader, insert the Secure Digital card back
into the CK61.
4 Navigate to the “\Storage Card” folder and run your application. After
your application is installed, you can run it from the Programs menu.

Using Wavelink Avalanche

You can use the Wavelink Avalanche device management system to install
applications on all of your wireless CK61s.
The wireless CK61 ships with the Avalanche Enabler already loaded on it.
The Avalanche Enabler is configured to activate automatically (typically on
a warm boot).
Note: If you manually activate the Avalanche Enabler on the CK61, you
may be prompted for a password when you exit the Avalanche Enabler. The
default password is leave.
When the Avalanche Enabler is activated, the CK61 attempts to connect to
the Avalanche Agent. When the CK61 connects to the Agent, the Agent
determines whether an update is available and immediately starts the
software upgrade, file transfer, or configuration update.
To use Avalanche to remotely manage the CK61
1 Use the Avalanche Management Console to install software packages
and updates for the CK61. For help using the console, see the online
help.
2 Schedule the CK61 updates or manually initiate an update using the
Avalanche Management Console.
For information on using Wavelink Avalanche, contact your local Intermec
representative or visit the Wavelink web site at www.wavelink.com.

Using the SmartSystems Console

You can use the SmartSystems Console to drag-and-drop Intermec
applications onto your CK61s. The CK61 ships with the SmartSystems
client loaded on it. The console is part of SmartSystems Foundation and is
available from the Intermec web site.

For information on using the SmartSystems Console, see its online help.

Launching Your Application Automatically

Note: This describes the system component startup for Intermec provided
components only. It does not describe the bootstrap loader process. It only
describes the component installation process provided by Windows Mobile.
It is assumed that you understand the Microsoft Mobile startup procedures
and are familiar with how Microsoft components start up.

You can configure the various media used in the Windows Mobile system
with a folder name and can change the media in the registry of the system.
Many of the startup components rely on folder names to locate information
files, applications, or other related data.
The registry keys used by FolderCopy and other startup components to
retrieve the folder names are as follows:
• Flash File Store
[HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\FlshDrv]
“FolderName”=“Flash File Store”
• SD Card (Storage Card)
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory]
“Folder”=“Storage Card”
• Disk On Chip
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC]
“Folder”=“DiskOnChip”
During normal Windows Mobile system startup, there are Intermec-
specific and non-Intermec components that require an orderly start to
properly function. These non-Intermec components may also need to start
themselves so the Windows Mobile device can function properly. Since
there are possible configurations that come from using one or more
optional built-in peripheral devices, the platform components starting on
the next page are required to manage startup.

PreShell
PreShell (PreShell.exe) is launched prior to the Microsoft Shell and must
execute a SignalStartup call before the Microsoft Shell launches.

84 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

PreShell searches the “\Flash File Store\SYSTEM” directory for an

executable of the same name. If one exists, that application is launched.
This application can do what a customer desires prior to launching the
Microsoft Shell. This feature allows end customers to make their own
application the shell of the system. If desired, do not exit the custom shell
nor call SignalStarted.

PostShell
PostShell (PostShell.exe) can launch an application after the Microsoft Shell
has launched. There are utility applications that exist that can take
advantage of “hooking” the startup for maintenance, for example.
PostShell searches the “\Flash File Store\SYSTEM” directory for an
executable of the same name. If one exists, that application is launched
instead. This application can do what a customer desires and is launched
after the Microsoft Shell starts initialization. The Microsoft Shell does not
require complete initialization before this application begins and that may
cause some application or system issues. These issues are expected and are
considered normal for those developing PostShell applications. The
application must test if the APIs it requires are available.

RunAutoRun
System components are installed and configured during the power up
process from a single starting point. RunAutoRun (RunAutoRun.exe), built
into the operating system image and located in the “\Windows\Startup”
folder, checks for AutoExec (AutoExec.exe) in a “\SYSTEM” folder on a
mounted volume in this order:
• Secure Digital (SD)
• Object Store - may be non-volatile storage or RAM
• Disk on Chip (DOC) - may map as Object Store
• Flash File Store - may map as Object Store. This is the default location
for the AutoExec program in Intermec systems. Intermec system
applications are started from this folder. The ordering of mounted
volumes overrides this feature.
The folder names used for the mounted volumes above are retrieved from
the registry to maintain coherence with the naming of the mounted
volumes on the platform. These folder names are not hard-coded. If
AutoExec is present in the “\SYSTEM” folder on any of these media, it
executes the program only on the first media it is found on and no other.
AutoExec is reserved for Intermec use to configure Intermec-specific
applications. It launches the CAB installer, AutoCab (AutoCab.exe), to
install platform .cab files to the system, such as Intermec Data Collection.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 85

Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

When the AutoExec.exe process completes, Run Autorun then checks for
the existence of AutoRun (AutoRun.exe) and executes this program from
the first media it is found on. This order is the same as what is used by
AutoExec.
AutoRun is reserved for customer use to configure application launch
sequences. It launches the CAB installer, AutoCab, as well as any customer
programs that added to the AutoUser.dat file and is described on the next
page. The hierarchy of these files is shown below.

applications

AutoExec
AutoExec (AutoExec.exe) automates operations such as pausing, launching
processes, or signaling, and is configured through the AutoExec data file
(AutoExec.dat). This script file must be in the same directory as the
program itself.
Note: Intermec considers the usage of the AutoExec data file as “Intermec
Private.” AutoExec installs Intermec applications such as Data Collection,
Security Supplicants, Intermec Management, applets, and shortcuts from
components found in the Flash File System. Do not modify the AutoExec
data file. Instead, use the AutoRun program to add software components.

AutoRun
AutoRun automates operations such as launching other processes and is
configured through the AutoRun data file (AutoRun.dat). This script file
must be in the same directory as the program itself.
AutoRun supports the following script commands in AutoUser.dat and
AutoRun.dat.
Note: If you need to add steps at boot time, add them to AutoUser.dat, not
to AutoRun.dat. AutoRun.dat is provided by Intermec and is subject to
change. AutoUser.dat is the designated place for the end user to add steps to
the boot time process.

EXEC Launches a specified program, waits for it to complete (up to 10 minutes).

CALL Processes a specified file of commands and returns.
CHAIN Processes a specified file of commands and does not return.
RUN Loads a specified program and executes it.
LOAD Loads a specified program and executes it.

AutoRun handles quoted file names for the first parameter which allows
you to specify path names or file names that contain white space. Note that
only one set of quotes per command is supported.
AutoRun.dat entry examples:
RUN “Flash File Store\Apps\some.exe” arg1, arg2, arg3
CALL “Flash File Store\2577\usercmds.dat”

AutoCopy
AutoCopy (AutoCopy.exe) copies or moves files from one location to
another. It has no user interface and is configured through command line
arguments. It has support for the following parameters:
Usage:
AutoCopy [-D["W"]] [-L["X"]] [-M[D]] [-Q[Y]] [-S["Z"]]

-D Indicates the destination file name and must be fully qualified. W is a string
value.
-L Indicates a fully qualified file name for logging to enable. Default is disabled. X
is a string value.
-M Moves file to a destination rather than copies the file. Default value is disabled.
D is an integer value. D=1 indicates enabled, 0 is disabled.
-Q Indicates if a message box should appear when an error occurs. Default is
disabled. Y is an integer value.
-S Indicates a source file name and must be fully qualified. Z is a string value.

The return code from the process uses the standard error codes defined in
WinError.h.
Example:
Use AutoCopy to copy the Audio control panel from Flash File Store to the
Windows directory.
autocopy.exe -S"\Flash File Store\System\Audio.cpl" -D"\Windows\Audio.cpl

Use AutoCopy to move the Audio control panel from Flash File Store to the

autoreg.exe -D "\Flash File Store\install.reg"
; use AutoReg to extract registry information to a file.
autoreg.exe -HHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Intermec\Version "\version.reg"

The format of the input file, in this example, is the standard registry format
which should ease the creation of the input file since there are many
publicly available utilities to generate a registry file besides Notepad. One
example of a tool is the Microsoft Remote Registry Editor.
AutoCab
AutoCab (AutoCab.exe) extracts files, registry settings, and shortcuts from
Windows Mobile cabinet (.cab) files. The Windows Mobile startup
sequence invokes AutoCab as a part of AutoExec and AutoRun. During the
Windows Mobile startup sequence, AutoCab processes all .cab files in the
“\CabFiles” directory relative to the current location of Autocab, unless the
location is overridden by command line arguments. AutoCab can run as a
stand-alone program to install a .cab file or a directory of .cab files.
AutoCab only installs the .cab file if it was not installed before by AutoCab.
To track the installation of a .cab file, AutoCab marks the .cab file with the
System attribute. This attribute is ignored if the device is performing a cold
boot on a non-persistent file system.
AutoCab preserves the .cabfile after installation if the ReadOnly attribute is
set. If not set, the .cab file is deleted automatically after installation.
Usage:
AutoCab [-ChkRst=][-File=][-Force][-Log=][-Move=][-Quiet=][-Show=][-Signal=]

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

Command line switches are described below.

-ChkRst= Set to 1 to configure AutoCab to check for the Reset flag after all .cab files
are installed. This file is created by .cab files that want a warm reset after
installation. Default is 0 (do not check for flag).
-File= Specifies the .cab files to extract. Note that the specified files need not end
with the .cab extension.
-Force Forces the specified .cab files to extract regardless of whether it was
previously extracted.
-Log= Set to 1 to create a log file in the same folder that AutoCab is running.
Useful for debugging .cab installation. Default is 0 (disabled).
-Move= Set to 1 to force source .cab file deletion, even when read-only bit set on
file. Default is 0 (disabled).
-Quiet= Set to 0 to allow AutoCab to display user message box on errors. Useful for
debugging .cab installation. Default is 1 (keep quiet).
-Show= Set to 0 to prevent showing any installation progress interfaces. Also
prevents user from canceling installation. Set to 1 to show normal
installation. Set to 2 to show Intermec installation progress interface (user
can see what is installing but cannot cancel it). Default is 1 (show normal).
-Signal= Set to string name of signal to use at the completion of .cab installation
before a reboot occurs (if enabled). AutoCab uses WaitForSingleObject on
this name. Default is disabled.

If <PathName> references a single .cab file, that file is processed. If

<PathName> references a directory, all the .cab files in that directory is
processed. If <PathName> is a wild card pattern, all files matching that
pattern is processed, If <PathName> is omitted, InstallCab processes all the
.cab files in directory “\CabFiles.”
Example:
Install all cab files in the \Flash File Store\XYZ directory.
AutoCab -FILE="\Flash File Store\XYZ\*.cab" -FORCE
Install only one cab file, use Intermec cab installation display.
AutoCab -FILE=”\myCab\app.cab” =show=2

Customizing How Applications Load on the CK61

If you have several processes that you need running in a specific order as the
CK61 turns on, you can use the AutoRun system to customize the way
applications load. For compatibility with other Intermec computers, you
can place a copy of AutoRun.exe in the same folder as your AutoRun.dat
file but it is not required.
To create and install the AutoRun.dat file on your CK61
1 On the CK61, create a folder called “SYSTEM.”
2 On your desktop, open the Notepad application.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 89

Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

3 Write commands for AutoRun.dat. For more information, see

“AutoRun” on page 86.
4 Save this Notepad file as AutoRun.dat.
5 Copy the AutoRun.dat file to the “\SYSTEM” folder on your CK61.
During every boot, the system scans for AutoRun.dat in the “\SYSTEM”
folder.
Here is a sample AutoRun.dat file that runs a dialer application and
connects to a VPN:
EXEC “\Program Files\My Dialer\Dialer.exe” 348-2600
EXEC “\Program Files\My VPN\Connect.exe” MyDomain

Configuring CK61 Parameters

You can configure many parameters on the CK61, such as the bar code
symbologies it decodes or the network settings. These characteristics are
controlled by configuration parameters. The values you set for these
configuration parameters determine how the computer operates. Use
configuration commands to configure the CK61.

Configuring with the Setup Assistant

When first setting up the CK61, use the Setup Assistant to set or enable
basic network parameters and connect your CK61 to the network.
The Setup Assistant guides you through setting the following basic network
parameters: date and time (including time zone), SSID (Network name),
DHCP server or IP address, subnet mask, and default router, primary and
secondary DNS or WINS addresses, and device name.
To set other parameters, use another configuration method. The Setup
Assistant runs on the CK61 when you turn on the computer.
After the Setup Assistant is complete, the CK61 should communicate with
the network. A network connection icon appears in the taskbar.

Configuring the Computer With Intermec Settings

Use the Intermec Settings applet to configure the CK61 and view system
information. You can access the Intermec Settings applet while running any
application.

90 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

To access the Intermec Settings applet

• From the CK61 desktop, select Start > Settings > the System tab > the
Intermec Settings icon.

For detailed information on most of the commands available in the

Intermec Settings applet, see the Intermec Computer Command Reference
Manual (P/N 073529).

Synchronizing the Computer System Time with a Time Server

It is important that the time on all of your CK61s be synchronized with a
network time server to ensure real-time communications and updates.
Network time servers acquire Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) from an
outside source such as the U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO). The CK61
uses Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to synchronize with a network
time server.
The default reference time server is the USNO (tock.usno.navy.mil). To
synchronize the time on your CK61 with this time server, you must have a
valid connection to the Internet. You can also synchronize the CK61 system
time with a corporate network server within your firewall that is SNTP-
capable. To use an internal corporate network server, you need to set the
command name in the registry.

Configuring the Computer through the Network

You can change the configuration parameters of the CK61 by sending
commands through a host computer or through the network. If you are
using a network, you can configure one or more CK61s at a time. You can
remotely configure the wireless or Ethernet CK61 by sending a command
from an application on the host computer.
Note: You cannot set all parameters through the network. You can only set
those commands that have a syntax in the Intermec Computer Command
Reference Manual.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 91

Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

Note: You can continue running an application on the CK61 while

configuring it from the host computer.

Configuring the Computer in a TCP/IP Direct Connect Network

You can use the host computer to configure a wireless or Ethernet CK61 in
your TCP/IP network. To send and receive configuration data, you need to
write a host application that can communicate with the CK61 directly
through an access point or through the Ethernet network. Use the TMF
protocol to send and receive transactions between the host application and
the CK61.
To set up the host computer, verify that you can communicate with the
CK61. To set up the application, prepare and write a host application that
can communicate with the Intermec Application Server and send
transactions to and receive transactions from the CK61 in this format:
TMF field commands

where:
TMF field A 2-byte field containing one of these values:
CG Configuration Get request sent from the host application.
Cg Configuration Get response sent from the CK61 to the host
computer.
CS Configuration Set request sent from the host application.
Cs Configuration Set response sent from the CK61 to the host computer.
commands The reader and configuration commands to set on the CK61 or the current
value to retrieve from the CK61. To save configuration changes in flash
memory, send the .+1 reader command as the last command. See the
Command Reference Manual for a list of commands.

Example
In the host application, you want to get the current values of two
configuration commands from the CK61. Send the CG$+NABV transaction
from the host application where::
CG is a TMF Configuration Get request.
$+ is the Change Configuration reader command.
BV is the Beeper Volume configuration command.

Note: The transaction header is not shown in this example. You do not
need a transaction header for a host application in a TCP/IP network, but
you do for a UDP Plus network.

92 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

The CK61 returns the CgS+BV4 transaction to the host application, where:
Cg is a TMF Configuration Get response.
$+ is the Change Configuration reader command.
BV4 means the Beeper Volume configuration command is currently set to a
value of 4, which is a very high beeper volume.

Configuring the Computer in a UDP Plus Network

You can use the host computer to configure a CK61 in your wireless or
Ethernet network. To send and receive configuration data or files, you need
to write a host application that can communicate with an Intermec
Application Server (formerly Gateway or DCS 30X).
For help, see the appropriate Gateway or DCS 30X User’s Manual. Use the
Terminal Message Format (TMF) protocol to send and receive transactions
between the host application and the CK61.
To set up the Intermec Application Server
• Configure a peer-to-peer destination name for the host application.
Create a transaction ID, $NGCFGRSP, that routes to this destination
name. The Intermec Application Server uses the transaction ID to route
responses from the CK61 back to the host application. $NGCFGRSP is
a special transaction ID that the server uses to forward configuration
response data from CK61s.
All configuration responses are routed with the $NGCFGRSP transaction
ID. The Intermec Application Server cannot track multiple applications
sending reader or configuration commands. If you have two host
applications sending reader or configuration commands, they must both be
configured to receive the $NGCFGRSP transactions, and therefore both
receive all responses from all CK61s.
To set up the host computer, verify that the host computer can
communicate with the Intermec Application Server.
To set up the application, prepare and write a host application that can
communicate with the Intermec Application Server and send transactions
to and receive transactions from the CK61 in this format. For an example
of the host application transaction, see the previous section..

commands The reader and configuration commands to set on the CK61 or the current
value to retrieve from the CK61. To save configuration changes in flash
memory, send the .+1 reader command as the last command. See the
Command Reference Manual for supported commands.

Reprogramming the CK61 Keypad

This section covers basic keypad remapping changes for the CK61, to
redefine basic virtual key values generated by the CK61 keypad. More
advanced options such as multi-keys and named events are not covered
here. For advanced options, see the Keyboard Remapper API in the Device
Resource Kit.

Implementation
The CK61 keypad virtual key mappings are controlled by registry entries,
which are read each time the keypad driver loads. You can “remap” the
keypad after it has loaded by modifying the registry entries and then
sending a signal to the keypad driver to re-read the registry mappings.
The keypad driver uses the scan code values returned by the keypad device
as an index into these registry entries to determine the virtual key value sent
to the system.

Registry Entries
There are three main “shift plane” registry entries which map the keypad
device scancodes to the windows virtual key values. Each registry entry is an
array of 128 WORDs (2 byte unsigned int, little endian). Since scan codes
generated by the keypad device can range in value from 0x00 to 0x7f, the
driver uses the generated scan code value as an index into one of the shift
plane entries to determine the virtual key value sent up to the system.
The shift plane registry entry used is determined by the current state of the
Orange and Green keys. If the Orange key is held down, then the “Orange
shift plane” array is used. If the Green key is held down, then the “Green
shift plane” array is used. If neither Orange nor Green key is held down,
then the “Normal, unshifted plane” array is used.
The name of the three registry entries that define the Normal, Orange, and
Green shift planes are as follows:

94 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\xxxx\Vkey (Normal)
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\xxxx\VkeyGold (Orange)
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\xxxx\VkeyAlpha (Green)
Where xxxx is a four-digit keypad ID which identifies the type of keypad
on your CK61.
These are the registry entries (which are arrays of 128 WORDs) you need
to modify to remap your keypad.

Programming the Keypad

Do the following to change a single key on the CK61 keypad. You can
change more than one key, if desired.
1 Identify your keypad
Read the four bytes of text stored in the registry entry. For this example,
this value is referred to as <KPID>.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\KEYPAD\ActiveConfig
2 Read the shift plane mapping
Read each of these key values into a WORD array of size 128. Note that
not all keypads have entries for VkeyGold and VkeyAlpha.
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\<KPID>\Vkey (Normal)
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\<KPID>\VkeyGold (Orange)
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\<KPID>\VkeyAlpha (Green)
3 Modify the shift plane mapping
Write the desired virtual key value to the scan code offset of the desired
shift plane.
You can use the scan code diagrams below and on the next page to find
the scan code for the keys you want to remap.
Note: Scan code 00h is the left scan trigger, scan code 10h is the right
scan trigger, and all values are hexadecimal.

4 Save the modified shift plane mappings

Write the registry values back.
5 Signal the keypad to reload
Open the “ITC_KEYBOARD_CHANGE” named event and call
SetEvent() to signal the keypad to reload.

Upgrading the Operating System on Your Computer

You can use the Intermec Recovery Tools CD to reinstall or upgrade the
operating system software on the CK61. For more information, contact
your Intermec representative for more information about this CD.
You can use the SmartSystems™ Foundation 2.0 application from Intermec
to perform upgrades on your CK61, versions 2.0 or later. Contact your
Intermec representative for more information about the SmartSystems
Foundation software.
When you upgrade the operating system, you erase the current
configuration and replace it with the new default configuration. You will
need to reset the network parameters on the CK61 to reestablish
communications with other devices in the network. In other words, if you
upgrade the operating system and the default registry from the operating
system has changed, the registry is rolled back to the new default.
When you upgrade your CK61, you are updating the operating system
(OS) and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) files.
The PSM files are stored on the DiskOnChip, and deliver Intermec Value-
Added (IVA) functionality such as data collection, unit configuration and
diagnostics, and Intermec’s wireless security suite. As new features are added
to these components, you can upgrade your PSM files without needing to
upgrade the operating system image. Similarly, features added to the
operating system images do not affect the functionality of the PSM, and
you can choose to upgrade only the operating system image.
There are two ways to upgrade the CK61:
• You can use a Secure Digital card to upgrade the CK61. For help, see
below.
• You can use the SmartSystems Console to upgrade the CK61. For help,
see “Using the SmartSystems Console to Upgrade the Computer” on
page 105.
You need to download the latest upgrade files from the Intermec web site to
your desktop or laptop computer, then determine if you will upgrade both
the operating system and PSM files, just the operating system files, or just
the PSM files.
To upgrade with a Secure Digital storage card

About Bluetooth
“Bluetooth” is the name given to a technology standard using short-range
radio links, intended to replace cables connecting portable and fixed
electronic devices. The standard defines a uniform structure for a range of
devices to communicate with each other with minimal user effort. Its key
features are robustness, low complexity, low power, and low cost. The
technology offers wireless access to LANs, the mobile phone network, and
the internet for a host of home appliances and mobile computer interfaces.
Wireless Printing can also be done with Microsoft APIs, including
Bluetooth extensions for Winsock, and Bluetooth virtual COM ports.
Information about other Bluetooth software is in the Bluetooth Resource
Kit and the Bluetooth Resource Kit User's Guide in the Intermec Developer
Library (IDL), which is available at www.intermec.com/idl. S

Wireless Printing
The Wireless Printing applet separates the task of wireless printing from
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 CK61 makes a connection when the wireless
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 the Bluetooth COM port control. Use the
Wireless Printing applet to handle the COM port registration. Customer
software or other test applications can also use this applet 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
new one is registered instead. The registered COM port is stored in the
registry as the “WPort.”
For information on using Bluetooth communications, see the Bluetooth
Resource Kit in the IDL, which is available as a download from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com. Contact your Intermec
representative for more information.
Use any of the following methods to set the wireless printer:
• Use a Bluetooth device search to locate the remote device (page 119)
• Manually enter the remote Bluetooth Device Address (page 120)
• Use Current Wireless Printer to set a different printer (page 121)

Local Area Networks

Note: The 802.11a radio is an extra cost option not supported on all
CK61s. Contact your Intermec representative for more information.

The CK61 is a versatile mobile computer that you can add to your wired or
wireless data collection network. You can connect your CK61 to your
network using any of these communications:
• Serial
• 802.11a/b/g radio
• Ethernet
• Bluetooth™ radio
The CK61 does not support wide area networks.

Configuring Serial Communications

The CK61 has a serial port to transfer data to and receive data from another
device via RS-232 communications. You can also insert the CK61 into a
communications dock to transmit data to and receive data from a host
computer or PC using RS-232 communications. The serial cable and the

Configuring 802.11a/b/g Radio Communications

Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30 cm (1 ft) aport
when power is applied. Failure to comply could result in equipment
damage.
The wireless CK61 has an internal 802.11a/b/g radio to transfer data using
wireless communications. This section of the manual assumes that you have
already set up your wireless communications network including access
points. If you are using a UDP Plus network, you also need to have an
Intermec Application Server communicating with a host computer.
Your CK61 supports TCP/IP and UDP Plus network protocols.

Configuring the Network Parameters for a TCP/IP Network

In a TCP/IP network, the CK61 communicates with a host computer
directly using TCP/IP. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the infrastructure mode, network name (SSID), host IP
address, and IP settings (if not using DHCP) on each CK61 in the
network.
2 Configure security. For help, see “Configuring Security” on page 142.

Configuring the Network Parameters for a UDP Plus Network

In a UDP Plus network, the CK61 communications with a host computer
through the Intermec Application Server. The Intermec Application Server
translates UDP Plus packets on the wireless network into
TCP/IP packets on the wired network and vice versa. The access point acts
as a bridge to allow communications between wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the network name (SSID), controller IP address, IP settings
(if not using DHCP), and controller port (set to 5555) on each CK61
in the network.
2 Configure security. For help, see “Configuring Security” on page 142.
• The easiest way to configure the network parameters on the CK61 is to
use the Intermec Settings applet. For help, see “Using the Intermec
Settings Applet” on page 17.

Controlling the 802.11 Radio Usage

The CK61 is able to support 802.11 radio usage of either the A-band
(5GHz) or the B/G-band (2.4GHz).
To determine which band your CK61 is supporting
• Tap Start > Settings > the System tab > the BandEnable icon.

To change the band to enable

• Select the desired band, tap ok, then perform a warm boot for the new
setting to take effect.
Your CK61 may be capable of using both bands or just the B/G band. The
BandEnable applet can enable or mask usage of any band the CK61 is
capable of using. The band setting defaults to enable all available bands. At
least one band must be enabled.
To read the current enabled operating bands, call DeviceIoControl using
IOCTL_NDISUIO_QUERY_OID_VALUE with the parameter
OID_GET_BAND. This returns the enabled bands masked by what the
CK61 supports.
Note: If “Registry Restore” is enabled, you must flush the registry before
cold booting or the change will be lost.

Configuring Ethernet Communications

You can use the CK61 directly in an Ethernet network if you have ordered
the Ethernet option on your CK61 and you insert it into a dock. The
communications dock as an Ethernet connector makes it possible for the
CK61 to communicate with your Ethernet network.
To use the CK61 in an Ethernet network, configure the Network Name
(SSID), Host IP Address, IP Settings (if not using DHCP), and Network
Port parameters on each CK61 in the network. If required for your
network, set the Primary and Secondary DNS Server and Primary and
Secondary WINS Server parameters on each CK61 in the network.

AutoIP/DHCP
Automatic Private IP Addressing (AutoIP) is enabled by default in
Windows Mobile. To remain compatible with other versions of Windows
Mobile, enable this setting. You can configure the registry settings in the
following to set the required AutoIP/DHCP behavior:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PRISMNDS1\TcpIp

Other registry keys that modify the behavior of AutoIP are as follows. You
can find the appropriate settings and behavior of each of the AutoInterval,
AutoIP, AutoMask, AutoSeed, and AutoSubnet keys in Microsoft Help.
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 15 seconds and if a DHCP server is found, the client
drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the DHCP server.
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
“Unable to obtain a server assigned IP address” message.
Note: If you try to disable AutoIP using a CAB file to set the registry value
for AutoIP, set the EnableDHCP value to “1” to keep DHCP enabled.

Note: Use DhcpRetryDialogue and DhcpMaxRetry registry settings to

extend the number of attempts a DHCP client makes to get a DHCP
address.

Note: Change the AutoInterval registry key value to make the client retry
more often to obtain a DHCP address.

authentication method for WPA and WPA2 would be the Pre-Shared Key
(PSK).

142 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 5 — Network Support

Choosing Between Microsoft and Funk Security

Before you can implement a security solution on the CK61, you need to
choose between Microsoft and Funk security:
• By default, Funk security is enabled. It provides everything you get with
Microsoft security plus the addition of Cisco Compatible Extensions
features. It also provides additional authentication types like EAP-
TTLS, LEAP, and EAP-FAST.
• Microsoft security, with its Microsoft Zero Config feature, is also
available. To switch to Microsoft security, go to “Configuring Microsoft
Security” on page 161 to start.
Note: Your security choice does not depend on your authentication server.
For example, you can choose Funk security if you use Microsoft Active
Directory® to issue certificates.

Configuring Funk Security

You can define up to four profiles for your Funk Odyssey security. Different
profiles let your CK61 communicate in different networks without having
to change all of your security settings. For example, you can set up one
profile for the manufacturing floor and one for the warehouse.
To enable Funk Security
1 Select Start > Settings > the System tab > the Intermec Settings icon.
2 Tap (+) to expand Communications > 802.11 Radio > Funk Security.
3 Select an active profile, then configure its security settings.

Using WPA Security

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a strongly enhanced, interoperable Wi-Fi
security that addresses many of the vulnerabilities of Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP). Instead of WEP, WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity
Protocol (TKIP) for its data encryption method. Currently, WPA satisfies
IEEE 802.11i standards.
WPA runs in Enterprise (802.1x) mode or PSK mode:

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 143

Chapter 5 — Network Support

• In Enterprise mode, WPA provides user authentication using 802.1x

and the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). That is, an
authentication server (such as a RADIUS server) must authenticate each
device before the device can communicate with the wireless network.
• In PSK mode, WPA provides user authentication using a shared key
between the authenticator and the CK61. WPA-PSK is a good solution
for small offices or home offices that do not want to use an
authentication server.
To use WPA security, you need an access point with an 802.11b/g radio
that supports WPA.
To configure WPA security with Funk Security
Use this procedure to set WPA security with Funk security.

1 Make sure you have configured the communications and radio

parameters on your CK61 and that Funk is your security choice.

Using 802.1x Authentication

802.1x authentication provides centralized user authentication using an
authentication server, authenticators (access points), and supplicants. These
components communicate using an EAP authentication type, such as TLS
(Transport Layer Security) or PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication
Protocol). 802.1x security provides data encryption using dynamic WEP
key management. To use 802.1x security, you need:
• An access point with an 802.11b/g radio.
• A CK61 with an 802.11b/g radio and the 802.1x/WPA security option.

Using LEAP (Cisco Lightweight EAP)

LEAP is the Cisco Lightweight version of EAP.
Use “LEAP” to configure the use of LEAP as an authentication protocol,
select “Open,” “WPA,” “WPA2,” or “Network EAP” as an association
mode, or assign “Network EAP.”

To configure using LEAP

1 Set 8021x Security as “LEAP,” then choose one of the following:
• Set Association to “Open.”
• Set Association to “WPA.”
• Set Association to “WPA2” and Encryption to “TKIP” or “AES.”
• Set Association to “Network EAP” and Encryption to either
“WEP” or “CKIP.” (default configuration)
2 Enter your unique Username to use this protocol.

 Chapter 5 — Network Support

3 Select Prompt for password to have the user enter this password each
time to access the protocol, or leave Use following password as selected
and enter your unique password to use the protocol without entering a
password each time you use your CK61.

Using EAP-FAST
The EAP-FAST protocol is a client-server security architecture that
encrypts EAP transactions with a TLS tunnel. While similar to PEAP, it
differs significantly as EAP-FAST tunnel establishment is based on strong
secrets unique to users. These secrets are called Protected Access Credentials
(PACs), which CiscoSecure ACS generates using a master key known only
to CiscoSecure ACS. Because handshakes based upon shared secrets are
intrinsically faster than handshakes based upon PKI, EAP-FAST is the
significantly faster of the two solutions that provide encrypted EAP
transactions. No certificate management is required to implement EAP-
FAST.
Use “EAP-FAST” to configure EAP-FAST as an authentication protocol,
select “Open,” “WPA,” or “Network EAP” as an association mode.

To configure using EAP-FAST

1 Set 8021x Security as “EAP-FAST,” then choose one of the following:
• Set Association to “Open.”
• Set Association to “WPA.”
• Set Association to “WPA2.”
• Set Association to “Network EAP” and Encryption to either
“WEP” or “CKIP.”
2 Enter your unique Username to use this protocol.
3 Select Prompt for password to have the user enter this password each
time to access the protocol, or leave Use following password as selected
and enter your unique password to use the protocol without entering a
password each time you use your CK61.

4 Tap Additional Settings to set options for PAC management and assign
an anonymous EAP-FAST name.
To configure additional EAP-FAST settings
1 Tap PAC Manager to view the PAC files currently installed on your
CK61. Tap ok to return to the Additional Settings screen.
2 If you already have a PAC on your CK61, clear (uncheck) Allow
Automatic PAC provisioning to avoid receiving more PACs from the
server.
3 If Allow Automatic PAC provisioning is checked, you can check:
• Prompt before acquiring a new PAC for notification of any
incoming PACs.
• Prompt before replacing a PAC for notification whether to replace
a current PAC with an incoming PAC.
4 Enter the Anonymous EAP-FAST Name as assigned for public usage.
This outer identity protects your login name or identity.
5 Click ok to return to the Security page.

• Check any of these options, then click OK.

Setting Description
Detect Rogue APs Wireless NICs and APs associate based on the SSID configured
for the NIC. Given an SSID, the BSSID with the strongest
signal is often chosen for association. After association, 802.1x
authentication may occur and during authentication credentials
to uniquely identify a user - these are passed between the NIC
and the AP.
Base 802.1x technology does not protect the network from
“rogue APs.” These can mimic a legitimate AP to authentication
protocols and user credentials. This provides illegal users ways to
mimic legitimate users and steal network resources and
compromise security.
Check this box to detect and report client behavior suspected of
being rogue APs. Once a rouge AP is detected, your CK61 no
longer associates with that AP until you perform a clean boot.
Clear this box to solve AP connection problems that result when
an AP gets put on the rogue list due to inadvertent failed
authentications, not because it is a real rogue.
Enable mixed cell Mixed cell is a profile-dependent setting. If enabled, using WEP,
you can connect to access points that allow the optional use of
encryption.
Allow fast roaming When using a wireless LAN that uses Cisco Access Points, a
(CCKM) LEAP-enabled client device can roam from one access point to
another without involving the authentication (RADIUS) server.
If enabled, an access point configured to provide Wireless
Domain Services (WDS) takes the place of the RADIUS server
(caching credentials of an initial authentication with the
RADIUS server) and authenticates the client without
perceptible delay in voice or other time-sensitive applications.
Enable Logging Check this box to log what activity occurs for this profile.

Configuring Microsoft Security

The default security setting is Funk. If you want to use Microsoft security,
you need to select it as your security choice.

CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 161

Chapter 5 — Network Support

To enable Microsoft Security

1 Select Start > Settings > the System tab > the Intermec Settings icon.
2 Tap (+) to expand Communications > 802.11 Radio > Security
Choice.
3 Select “Microsoft Security” from the drop-down list.
4 Press Enter.

5 Tap Yes or press Esc to clear the alert box, save your settings, then
perform a clean boot on the CK61. See “Resetting Your Computer” on
page 3 for more information.

Loading Certificates
If you choose to use Transport Layer Security (TLS) with WPA or 802.1x
security, you need to have a unique client certificate on the CK61 and a
trusted root certificate authority (CA) certificate. If you choose to use
PEAP, you need to load a root CA certificate. You can use a third-party CA
to issue unique client certificates and a root certificate.

162 CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual

 Chapter 5 — Network Support

To load certificates
• If your CA is on your WLAN, select Start > Settings > the System tab >
the Certificates icon > the Root tab to view certificate details.
• To remove a certificate, press and hold a certificate, then select Delete.

Wireless Network
Your wireless adapter (network interface card) connects to wireless networks
of two types: infrastructure networks and ad-hoc networks.
• Infrastructure networks get you onto your corporate network and the
internet. Using the 802.11b/g infrastructure mode, the CK61
establishes a wireless connection to an access point, linking you to the
rest of the network.
• Ad-hoc networks are private networks shared between two or more
clients, even with no access point.
Each wireless network is assigned a name (or Service Set Identifier - SSID)
to allow multiple networks to exist in the same area without infringement.
Intermec recommends using security measures with wireless networks to
prevent unauthorized access to your network and to ensure your privacy of
transmitted data. Authentication (cryptographically protected) by both the
network and the user, transmitted data, and encryption are required
elements for secure networks. Schemes are available to implement the
features.

SmartSystems™ Foundation
Use the SmartSystems Foundation (www.intermec.com/SmartSystems) to
configure and manage your network. You can also contact your Intermec
representative for support.
