If <PathName> references a single CAB file, that file is processed. If <Path-
Name> references a directory, all the .CAB files in that directory is pro-
cessed. 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, regardless.
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 Computer
If you have several processes that you need running in a specific order as the
CN3 Computer turns on, you can use the AutoRun system to customize
the way applications load. For compatibility with other Intermec comput-
ers, 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 CN3 Computer
1 On the CN3 Computer, create a folder called “SYSTEM.
2 On your desktop, open the Notepad application.
-ChkRst= Set to 1 to configure AutoCab to check for the Reset flag after all CAB files are installed. This file is cre-
ated by CAB files that want a clean 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 instal-
lation. 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.
