How to Configure the Computer
You can configure many parameters on the 70 Series computer such as
the bar code symbologies it decodes or the network settings. The
values you set for these parameters determine how the computer
operates.
There are several ways to configure the 70 Series computer:
• Directly on the computer. You can use Intermec Settings directly
on the 70 Series computer to change only the settings on that
computer. For more information, see
“Using Intermec Settings
on the Computer” on page 60.
• Remotely using Intermec SmartSystems Foundation. When you
use SmartSystems, you can remotely configure all your 70 Series
computers as well as other SmartSystems-enabled Intermec
computers and peripherals. For more information, see
“Using
Intermec Settings Remotely With SmartSystems Foundation”
on page 67.
• You can use a third-party device management product that
supports the 70 Series computer and Intermec Settings, such as
Soti MobiControl or Wavelink Avalanche. For more information,
visit the Device Management page on the Intermec web site.
• You can use imager configuration bar codes to enable or disable
symbologies, reset to factory defaults, and set predefined imager
modes. For more information, see
“Imager Configuration Bar
Codes” on page 77.
You can also configure the computer with configuration bundles that
you create using SmartSystems Foundation. For more information,
see the SmartSystems Foundation online Help.
Using Intermec Settings on the Computer
Use Intermec Settings to configure parameters for Intermec
applications on the 70 Series computer as well as come device-specific
parameters like volume. You can configure parameters for important
functions like data collection and communications.
