Use this manual to understand how to use the features and options
available on the CK3. For information about Windows Mobile 6.1
applications installed on the CK3, refer to the online help.
Using the Battery
The CK3 uses an AB17 standard or AB18 extended battery as its main
power source. The standard battery has an 7.4 Watt hour capacity, and
the extended battery has a 18.8 Watt hour capacity. Several factors
determine the life of your battery, such as extreme temperatures,
input devices, and your usage.
You must fully charge the battery before you can use the CK3. When
you change the battery, an internal super capacitor maintains your
status, memory, and real-time clock for approximately 10 minutes.
The 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. Dispose of used batteries
promptly. Keep away from children.
If you fail to replace the low battery immediately, you may lose
important data or applications.
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 1 — Using the Computer
Note: If the CK3 is not using external power and you remove the
battery pack, the CK3 goes into Suspend mode.
For replacement batteries, contact your Intermec representative.
Charging the Battery
Make sure you fully charge the AB17 or AB18 battery before you use
your CK3. You can charge the battery before or after you install it in
the CK3. A fully discharged battery charges in approximately 4 (AB17)
to 7 (AB18) hours.
To charge the battery
•
Insert the battery into the battery bay of the AD20 single dock, or
insert up to four batteries into the AC20 quad battery charger.
Or,
•
Install the battery in the CK3 and insert the CK3 into the AD20
single dock, AD21 ethernet multidock, AD22 charge-only
multidock, or AV10 vehicle dock.
Use the next table to understand how long it takes to charge your
batteries in each of the CK3 charger or dock accessories.

Maximizing Battery Life
Batteries are chemical devices. If the batteries are left sitting on a shelf
for long periods of time outside the CK3, the batteries slowly
discharge, eventually to zero if left uncharged. The battery chemistry
resists normal degradation if you store the battery in a charger as
opposed to leaving the battery in a discharged state. See the following
table for tips to maximize the life of your battery.

CK3 RS-232 adapter (Model AA21). For help, see the CK3 RS-232
Adapter (AA21) Instructions (P/N 943-182-xxx).
The type of imager you are using and the type of bar code you are
decoding determines the way you scan the bar code. Depending on
the imager model in your CK3, the CK3 supports reading 1D linear
bar codes, 2D images, and composite and postal codes.
By default, these bar code symbologies are enabled on the CK3:
•
Code 39
•
Code 128/GS1-128
•
DataMatrix (area imagers only)
•
PDF417 (if supported)
•
EAN/UPC
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different
symbology, you need to enable the symbology on the CK3. Use
Intermec Settings to enable and disable symbologies. For help, see
“Configuring the CK3 With Intermec Settings” on page 27.

Resetting the CK3
You seldom need to reset the CK3. However, you do need to reset the
CK3 when an application is locked up and does not respond, when
you upgrade the firmware, or when you reflash the CK3. The CK3
uses the configuration currently saved in flash memory during the
reset process.
There are three ways to reset the CK3:
•
Warm boot
•
Cold boot
•
Clean boot
Warm Booting the CK3
If your CK3 has a charged battery installed but does not resume after
you press the Power key, or if the computer or an application is locked
up, you may need to warm boot the CK3.
To warm boot your CK3

The CK3 shuts down, restarts, and goes through the initialization
process.
Cold Booting the CK3
If the CK3 or application is locked up and does not respond to a warm
boot, follow this procedure to perform a cold boot.
Performing a cold boot may result in data loss. When you cold
boot the CK3, cached disk data may not be saved, so transactional
data may be lost.

Clean Booting the CK3
If the CK3 does not warm boot or cold boot, you may need to perform
a clean boot. When you clean boot the CK3, the CK3 only loads files
and applications that are absolutely required by the operating system.
Perform a clean boot to get the CK3 up and running so that you can
run diagnostic tests to troubleshoot the normal boot process.
The clean boot process erases the CK3 memory, including all
applications and data files in the object store. To preserve
applications through a clean boot, store them in the Flash File
Store. For more information, see “Installing Applications on the

•
Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2™)
•
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
•
802.1x
•
WEP
This section explains how to configure wireless security on your CK3.
If you choose not to use security, see “Disabling Security” on
page 49. Intermec always recommends that you implement security.
You must use either Funk or Microsoft security to implement your
security solution. For details, see the next section, “Choosing
Between Funk and Microsoft Security.”
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
37
Chapter 2 — Connecting and Configuring the CK3
If you are using WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, or 802.1x security, this
section also assumes that your authentication server and
authenticators are properly configured. For more information on
802.1x security, see the MobileLAN™ secure 802.1x Security Solution
Installation Guide (P/N 073134) available at www.intermec.com.
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.
Choosing Between Funk and Microsoft Security
The CK3 supports both Funk and Microsoft security. The option you
choose depends on your network security needs.
Understanding Microsoft and Funk Security
Security Choice Description
38
Microsoft
Microsoft security dynamically selects wireless networks
based on your preferences. If you are primarily using the
CK3 to connect to WiFi hotspots, you may want to use
Microsoft security.
To use Microsoft security, you need to select it as your
security choice. For help, see “Selecting Microsoft as
Your Security Choice” on page 43.
Funk (default)
Funk security offers features that are similar to Microsoft
security, but Funk also offers these features:
• CCX v2.0 compliance
• Support for LEAP and TTLS
• Configuration of up to four profiles
If you are using the CK3 in a static environment that
requires a high level of security, you should use Funk
security.
To use Funk security, you need to select a profile. For help,
see the next section, “Selecting a Funk Security Profile.”
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 2 — Connecting and Configuring the CK3
Selecting a Funk Security Profile
You can define up to four profiles for Funk security. Different profiles
let your CK3 communicate in different networks without having to
change all of your security settings. For example, you may want to set
up one profile for the manufacturing floor and one for the
warehouse. By default, the active profile is Profile 1.
Note: You can also use the Profile Wizard to configure most wireless
security settings. To start the Profile Wizard, tap the iConnect icon
( ) in the lower right corner of the Today screen and select Tools >
Wireless Settings.
To select a Funk security profile
1 Start Intermec Settings.
2 Choose Communications > 802.11 Radio > Funk Security.
3 Tap a profile to expand it.
4 (Optional) In the Profile Label text box, enter a meaningful name
for your profile.
5 Configure your security settings. For help, see the next sections.
6 Repeat Steps 3 through 5 for each profile you want to define.
7 Select one profile as the active profile by tapping Active Profile
and choosing a profile from the list.
8 Save your settings.
Configuring WPA Security With Funk Security
Use these procedures to set WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, WPA-PSK, or
WPA2-PSK security on your CK3 with Funk security.
To configure WPA-802.1x or WPA2-802.1x with Funk security
1 Make sure the communications and radio parameters on your
CK3 are configured.
2 Make sure Funk is selected as your security choice.
3 Start Intermec Settings.

Developing Applications for the CK3
The CK3 runs applications programmed in Microsoft Visual Studio
2005. You can also use Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 to
program applications, but some features may not be available. Use
this section to understand the hardware and software you need to
develop applications for the CK3.
Use the Intermec resource kits to develop new applications to run on
the CK3. The Intermec resource kits are a library of C++ and .NET
components grouped by functionality that you can use to create
applications for the computer. The resource kits are part of the
Intermec Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded from the
Intermec IDL web site at www.intermec.com/idl.
To use the resource kits, you need these hardware and software
components:
52
•
Pentium desktop, 400 MHz or later
•
Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or later) or Windows XP (Home,
Professional, or Server)
•

CD-ROM drive compatible with multimedia desktop specification
•
VGA or higher-resolution monitor (Super VGA recommended)
•
Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
Installing Applications on the CK3
You can install applications on your CK3 using one of these methods:
•
Package your application as a cabinet (.cab) file.
•
Send the .exe file (simple applications, only) to the CK3.
•
Copy a directory structure that contains the application,
supporting files, DLLs, images, and data files.
Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications.
The CK3 uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and can install
third-party .cab files. You can program your .cab file to install your
application to one of these memory locations on your CK3:
•
Object Store or Flash File Store. The Object Store is a
DiskOnChip® flash that looks like a disk. The Flash File Store is
an area of storage which is embedded in a section of the system
flash memory. This storage is not erased during a reset, although
it may be erased during the reflashing process. In addition to
storing applications and data files, you can also store persistent
registry information to the Flash File Store region.
•
Optional microSD card. If you are using a microSD card, this
should be the primary location to place application installation
files. The microSD card creates the Storage Card folder (SDMMC)
on the CK3. For help using a microSD card, see “Using a
microSD Card” on page 21.
•
Non-volatile Flash File Store. Use the small non-volatile Flash File
Store region to hold .cab files that rebuild the system at clean boot
or install applications from a .cab file into the Flash File Store so
that they are “ready-to-run” when you perform a clean boot. The
flash in the system has a limited number of write cycles, so do not
use the Flash File Store for excessive writing.
Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the
CK3 as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate
location. For more information about AutoRun, see the Intermec
Developer’s Library (IDL) Resource Kit Developer’s Guide available
from www.intermec.com/idl.
When you copy a .cab file to the \CabFiles folder, the folder
automatically extracts that .cab file on every cold boot.
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
53
Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
You can use these methods to install files and applications on your
CK3:
•

the CK3.
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
55
Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
5 On your CK3, navigate to the storage card folder and run your
application.
Installing Applications Using the FTP Server
The CK3 has a built-in FTP Server that connects to a network through
Ethernet, 802.11 b/g, or Bluetooth communications. You can use the
server to transfer your application file to the computer. Another
benefit of using the FTP server is that you can create FTP scripts to
automate the process of copying your files to the computer. This
option is useful when you need to send files to a large number of
computers.
The easiest way to manage the FTP server is to enable the FTP menu
within iConnect.
To enable the FTP menu
•
Create this DWORD registry key and set it to a value of 1:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\ShowFTPMenu
The iFTP menu is available the next time your start iConnect.
To manage the state of the FTP server
•
Modify these existing registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\FtpAutoStart
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\FtpHeartbeat
Where 1 = enable and 0 = disable.
Installing Applications Using Wavelink Avalanche
You can use the Wavelink Avalanche device management system to
install applications on all of your wireless CK3 computers. To use
Wavelink Avalanche, you need to install the Avalanche Enabler on
your CK3.
To install the Avalanche Enabler on your CK3
1 Tap Start > File Explorer > Windows > InstallSelect. The
InstallSelect utility starts.
2 Make sure that Avalanche Enabler is selected.
3 Tap Apply. You CK3 clean boots and Avalanche Enabler is
installed.
56
CK3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual
Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
Each time the Avalanche Enabler is activated (typically on a reset), the
CK3 attempts to connect to the Avalanche Agent. When the CK3
connects to the agent, the agent determines whether an update is
available and immediately starts the software upgrade, file transfer, or
configuration update.
Note: If you manually activate the Avalanche Enabler on the CK3, you
may be prompted for a password when you exit the Avalanche
Enabler. The default password is leave.
To remotely manage the CK3 with Avalanche
1 Install software packages and updates for the CK3 using the
Avalanche Administrative console.
2 Schedule the CK3 updates or manually initiate an update using
the Avalanche Administrative console.
For more information on using Wavelink Avalanche, contact your
local Intermec representative or visit the Wavelink web site at
www.wavelink.com.
Freeing Up Virtual Memory for Applications
You can use the InstallSelect application to free up virtual memory
and create more space to load and run custom applications.
Note: InstallSelect is designed for use only by administrators,
developers, integrators, or Intermec service representatives. Do not
run InstallSelect while using any other applications.
When you free up virtual memory, you reduce the amount of virtual
memory used by portions of the SmartSystems Platform Bundle
(SSPB) by removing value-added software features. Be sure to back up
any related files that you want before you use the InstallSelect
application. For more information on SSPB, see “Upgrading the
System Software” on page 61.
Removing software features may result in loss of computer
functionality or the ability to manage device settings. Contact
your Intermec service representative for information about each
software feature before making changes.
