7.11 Exploring the Terminal from the Workstation
When the terminal and desktop computer are connected, open the main Windows Mobile window (on the
desktop), and click File Management - browse the contents of your device.
The Terminal is now treated as a mass storage device, and transferring files is as simple as dragging and
dropping or copying and pasting as you would for moving files between folders on your hard drive.
7.12 Adding Programs via Windows Mobile
WARNING: When selecting programs, verify that the program and version of the program are designed for the
Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Pro
Start -> Settings -> System -> About -> Version tab. Make a note of the information in the Processor field.
Generally, software for Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Pro devices must be installed to the host
workstation first, then transferred to the Terminal.
1. Download the program to the workstation from either the Internet or the install CD. You may see a single
*.exe or setup.exe file, a *.cab file, or *.dll. (There may also be several versions of files for different device
types and processors.)
2. Read any installation instructions, Read Me files, or documentation that comes with the program.
Many programs provide special installation instructions.
3. Connect the terminal to the workstation.
IF THE FILE IS AN INSTALLER
An installer program is one that installs to the workstation and the terminal simultaneously; one process
installs to both devices.
1. On the workstation, the *.exe or *.setup.exe file. The installation wizard begins.
2. Follow the directions on the workstation screen.
The installation process includes transferring the software to the terminal via Windows Mobile.
