38 Comments or Questions

39 Agenda - SmartSystems Client Side Processing
\SmartSystems\SSConfigDir Loads configuration files ScanToLoad – Provisioning (Lab) Load application and settings via FTP/HTTP DHCP – Provisioning Load applications via DHCP settings and TFTP SSTransferAgent (Lab) Load applications / configurations on a clean boot

40 \SmartSystems\SSConfigDir
Sets/Gets configuration items from a file Where do I get configuration XML? Backup of settings on the SSConsole Local backup on the device via Intermec Settings Right click on a field in Intermec Settings – “View Field XML” Auto deletes files so you can’t see results How can I see the results? HKLM\Software\Intermec\SSClient\SaveCfgFiles Support for Microsoft WapProvisioning XML Example XML C:\DevConn2009\SmartSystems\SSConfigDirExamples

41 Scan-to-Connect / Scan-to-Load
Automatically connect device to network and SmartSystems Server Separate install Installs S2C_Config settings in Software Vault Only includes Communications and Core Messaging Service settings Eliminates need to make a backup first Scan-to-Load feature (HTTP/FTP URL) Requires SmartSystems Client 3.44 or above Cab files automatically placed in \CabFiles directory XML files in the SS Config file format are automatically placed in \SmartSystems\SSConfigDir and processed. XML AutoConfig files are processed to load other files For more info reference All other files automatically placed in \ScanToLoad directory Preambles on device will cause an error

42 Scan-to-Connect / Scan-to-Load

43 Auto Configuration file format
<Files> <File Src=“ Dest="\temp\FeaturesDemo.cab" Run="\2577\autocab.exe" CmdLine="-FILE="\temp\FeaturesDemo.cab" -FORCE -SHOW=2 -CHKRST=1“ Wait=“True”> </File> </Files> </AutoConfig>

44 Scan-to-Load Follow Along Lab
Backup Device Right click, Create Backup Settings Edit Settings Right click on backup, Start Intermec Settings Create ScanToLoad Barcodes Right click on backup, Print Scan-To-Connect Barcodes Scan barcodes with device

45 Auto Configuration file format – Example
Let’s look at the file we processed in our example: C:\Devconn2009\SmartSystems\ScanToLoad\

46 SmartSystems DHCP AutoConfiguration
Allows for loading of files/applications/settings without the use of the SmartSystems Console Loads files/applications/settings remotely via TFTP Requires a DHCP server that support Vendor Options Vendor Class name (ie: Intermec.CN3E) option 66 – TFTP server IP address option 67 – DHCP auto configuration file name

47 SSTransferAgent Loads sspb/applications/settings on clean boot
Note: No SSPB on a CN50 Extend with \Flash File Store\UserAutoInstall Install your own applications and settings User defined _sstransferagent.xml file Allows for settings to be loaded once or on every boot \SmartSystems\BootSettings.xml HKLM\Software\Intermec\SSClient\BootSettings Logs results to \SSTransferAgent.txt

48 _SSTransferAgent.xml – File Format
<Devices> <Device Type=“” Family=“” Model=“” Boot=“”> <Files SrcDir=“”> <File SrcDir=”” SrcName=”” DestDir=”” DestName=”” OS=“” ConfigString=“” Run=“” CmdLine=“” StartIn=“”> </File> </Files> <Commands> <DeleteFile File=“”/> <DeleteDir Dir=“”/> <CopyDir SrcDir=“” DestDir=“”/> <SetRegKey KeyName=“” ValueName=“” Value=“” Type=“”/> </Commands> </Device> </Devices>

49 _SSTransferAgent.xml – File Format
<Devices> <Device Type=“C” Family=“K” Model=“3” Boot=“Warm”> </Device> <Device Type=“C” Family=“N” Model=“*”> </Devices> Required Attributes Type, Family, Model - May use “*” as wild card match Optional Attribute Boot – Values of “Warm” or “Cold” Default of none

51 _SSTransferAgent.xml – File Format
<Devices> <Device Type=“C” Family=“N” Model=“3” Boot=“Warm”> <Commands> <DeleteDir Dir=“\temp”/> <DeleteFile File=“\myFileToDelete.txt”/> <CopyDir SrcDir=“\Flash File Store\MyApp” DestDir=“\MyApplication”/> <SetRegKey KeyName=“Software\MyCompany\MyApp” ValueName=“ShowUI” Value=“10” Type=“DWORD”/> </Commands> </Device> </Devices> SetRegKey Type – DWORD, otherwise will assume REG_SZ Only sets DWORDs and REG_SZs. Only sets values under HKLM. CopyDir – Yes, it does copy the sub directories

52 _sstransferagent.xml XML to run in a settings file every time the device is booted. <?xml version="1.0"?> <Devices> <Device Type="C" Family="N" Model="3“ Boot=“Warm”> <Files SrcDir="\Flash File Store\UserAutoInstall"> <File SrcName="Settings.xml" DestName="BootSettings.xml“ DestDir="\SmartSystems" ConfigString="CN3*" OS="PocketPC"/> </Files> <Commands> <SetRegKey KeyName="Software\Intermec\SSClient" ValueName="BootSettings" Value="1" Type="DWORD"/> </Commands> </Device> </Devices>

53 Lab – SSTransferAgent This lab will use the SSTransferAgent to load a cab file, and have an executable start at boot time. Sample files C:\DevConn2009\SmartSystems\SSTransferAgent directory Create a _ssTransferAgent.xml file to load a cab file Copy the FeaturesDemo.cab file to the \temp directory and process it in with wceload Copy the FeaturesDemo.lnk file to the \windows\Startup Clean boot If the FeaturesDemo program does not start, look at the \SSTransferAgent.txt output file

54 Lab _ssTransferAgent.xml
<Devices> <Device Type="C" Family="N" Model=“*"> <Files SrcDir="\Flash File Store\UserAutoInstall"> <File SrcName="FeaturesDemo.CAB" DestDir="\temp" DestName="FeaturesDemo.cab" OS="PocketPC" ConfigString="CN*"/> <File DestDir="\windows" DestName="wceload.exe" OS="PocketPC" ConfigString="CN*" Run="true" CmdLine=" /noui \temp\FeaturesDemo.cab" StartIn="\"/> <File SrcName=“FeaturesDemo.lnk” DestDir=“\windows\Startup” DestName=“FeaturesDemo.lnk” OS=“PocketPC” ConfigString=“CN*” /> </Files> </Device> </Devices>
