IntroductionChapter —16 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualIf your computer shuts down because of low battery conditions, your com-puter does not operate. This is done to ensure that data is protected. Al-though the battery does protect the data against loss for several hours, youshould connect your computer to a power source when you first detect alow battery condition.Your computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary powerstorage device, that protects data for up to ten minutes. This is to give youtime to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to putthe computer in a suspend mode before doing so.If you have at least one device in your 700 Color Computer (radio, scan-ner, imager, or Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after thesystem shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient chargeto allow the unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintainDRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours atroom temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer.The configuration and time are lost if:SThe battery discharges beyond this level.SThe battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode.SA cold reset is performed on the computer.You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the 700 ColorComputer, tap Start >Settings >theSystem tab>thePower icon > theBattery tab. Drag the top slider bar to the right to change the suspendvoltage to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit.

In-ternet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive from yourInternet service provider (ISP) or your employer. SMS messages are sentand received through your wireless phone service provider by using aphone number as the message address.You can send and receive e-mail by synchronizing with your desktop, orby connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or Internet Message Ac-cess Protocol 4 (IMAP4) mail server. You need to set up an e-mail accountfor each method that you use except for Microsoft ActiveSync, which is setupbydefault.TheActiveSyncfolderonyour700ColorComputerstoresmessages that you send and receive through synchronization with a desk-top. Account names appear as folders in the folder list (located on the left,under the navigation bar) in the Inbox message list.With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the device In-box and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange orMicrosoft Outlook. For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mail Mes-sages”below.When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to con-nect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet cardto connect to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connec-ted. You can also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line con-nection. For more information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server”onpage79.Synchronizing E-mail MessagesAfter selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messagesare synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. Duringsynchronization:SMessages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or theMicrosoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your 700 Color Com-puter. (Note that you can only synchronize information directly with anExchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Infor-mation Server 2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from thelast three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file at-tachmentsoflessthan100KBinsize.SMessages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Ex-change or Outlook and then sent from those programs.SThe messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a mes-sage on your 700 Color Computer, it is deleted from your desktop thenext time you synchronize.SMessages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchro-nized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync.For information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchro-nization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or select Start >Help >Connections to see Connections Help.
Windows Mobile 2003Chapter —278 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualManaging E-mail Messages and FoldersEach e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy withfivedefaultfolders:Inbox,Outbox,DeletedItems,Drafts,andSentItems.The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored inthese folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy.The Deleted Items folder contains messages that were deleted on the de-vice. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends onthe Inbox options you have chosen.The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are usingActiveSync,SMS,POP3,orIMAP4.SIf you use ActiveSync,e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook automatically synchro-nize with your device. You can select to synchronize additional foldersby designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and themessages you move are then mirrored on the server. For example, if youmovetwomessagesfromtheInboxfoldertoafoldernamedFamily,and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates acopy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. Youcan then read the messages while away from your desktop.SIf you use SMS,messages are stored in the Inbox folder.SIf you use POP3and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is brokenbetween the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server.The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the messages aremissing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the server. Thisprevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it alsomeans that you no longer have access to messages that you move to fold-ers created from anywhere except the 700 Color Computer.SIf you use IMAP4,the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirroredon the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you con-nect to your mail server, whether it is from your 700 Color Computeror desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you con-nect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename or delete folderswhen connected.For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tap-ping Tools >Manage Folders.

Installing ApplicationsChapter —3120 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualPackaging an ApplicationUseanyofthesemethodstopackageanapplicationforinstallation:SFor very simple applications, the application itself might be the only filethat needs to be delivered.SIt could be a directory structure that contains the application, support-ing files like ActiveX controls, DLLs, images, sound files, and data files.SOr, you could package an application via a CAB file.Consider any of the following when choosing a location into which tostore your application:SIn the basic 700 Color Computer, there are two built-in storage op-tions: the Object Store and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM). TheObject Store is RAM that looks like a disk. Anything copied here is de-leted when a cold-boot is performed on the 700 Color Computer. ThePSMisanareaofstoragewhichisembeddedinasectionofthesystem’sFLASH memory. This storage area is not erased during a cold-boot. Itmay, however, be erased during the reflashing process. In addition tostoring applications and data files, you do have the option to store a per-sistent registry to the PSM region.SIf the optional Secure Digital or CompactFlash storage card is in thesystem, then consider this card the primary location for placing an ap-plications install files. The following folders represent either card:SThe Secure Digital storage card creates the “\SDMMC Disk” folder.SThe CompactFlash storage card creates the “\Storage Card” folder.Note: The 730 Mobile Computer does not support the CompactFlash storage card.SUse the small non-volatile Flash File Store region to hold CAB files thatrebuild the system at cold-boot or install applications from a CAB fileinto the Flash File Store so they are ”ready-to-run” when a cold-boot isperformed. Since the FLASH in the system has a limited number ofwrite cycles, do not use the Flash File Store for excessive writing pur-poses; however, reading is okay.Files copied to any of these locations are safe when a cold-boot isperformed on a 700 Color Computer — providing the AutoRun system isinstalled in the appropriate location You can find this system in the 700Color Management Tools portion.Copying a CAB file to the“\CABFILES” folder on one of these cards automatically extracts that CABfile on every cold-boot to ensure that your system is properly set up (seepage 130).

Installing ApplicationsChapter —3130 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualMigrating from a 700 Monochrome ComputerAs you migrate from a 700 Monochrome Computer to a 700 Color Com-puter, you need to consider the following: When converting a 700 Mono-chrome Computer application to run on the 700 Color Computer, mostAPIs should work without changes. Below are a few exceptions:SThe 700 Monochrome Computer uses the “\Storage Card” folder fornonvolatile storage. You may need to change the application to storedata onto the “SDMMC Disk” folder instead of the “\Storage Card”folder if a Secure Digital storage card is present in the system.SIf the application uses the RegFlushKey() API, it must first verify thatthe proper media is available in the system and call the special API men-tioned in Step 7 on the previous page.SIftheapplicationisusingthe700Colorswitchabledock,usetheIOCTL_DOCK_SWITCH value from theIOCTL_HAL_ITC_WRITE_SYSPARM function to set the properport on the dock before communications. See more information aboutthis KernelIOControl function in Chapter 7, “Programming.”SSome WAN radio options have changed. Review the WAN radio infor-mation in Chapter 4, “Network Support,“to determine if any changes arerequired in your application.SArrow and tab keys are reversed from the 700 Monochrome Computer.Keyboard remapping is available on the 700 Color Computer shouldyou need to map these keys like that of the 700 Monochrome Comput-er (see page 127).SSpecial Resource Kits are not needed to compile applications for theXscale processor. Targeting the SA1110 processor creates applicationsthatrunonthe700ColorComputer.Installing Cabinet FilesCAB files (short form of “cabinet” files) are compressed folders as defined byMicrosoft. A “cabinet” file is a single file, usually suffixed with .CAB, thatstores compressed files in a file library. A compressed file can be spreadover several cabinet files. During installation, the setup application decom-presses the files stored in a cabinet and copies them to the user’s system.For the 700 Series Computer, CAB files register DLLs, create shortcuts,modify registry entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a CAB file toextract that file or place the CAB file on one of the approved storage de-vices in the “\CabFiles” folder, then perform a warm-boot on the 700 Se-ries Computer. There are two methods available to extract a CAB file:STap a CAB file to extract it. With this method, the CAB file is automat-ically deleted when the extraction process is successful, unless the CABfile is set with the read-only attribute.SUse AUTOCAB to extract all files when a cold-boot is performed onthe 700 Series Computer. See the Software Tools User’s Manual for in-formation.

Once you enablevoice capability, data capability, or both depending on the carrier, removethis program from the system by cold-booting your computer.Intermec Technologies does not recommend using the SB555 Watcherprogram to make data and voice calls on a daily basis for these reasons:SThe SB555 Watcher application is a third-party application unaware ofcertain power management methods used in your 760 Computer.Therefore, the application consumes more power than necessary.SThe application size consumes memory better used for your applicationdata.The process of setting up the account with your carrier and enabling theCDMA WAN radio in your 760 Computer is called activation. To proper-ly function, program the CDMA device with the necessary informationand set up the network carrier account. If either piece has errors, the de-vice does not function on the CDMA network.The CDMA radio is pre-programmed for a specific carrier, such as Sprint,Telus, Bell Mobility, Verizon, etc.). Therefore, information about yourradio should already be in your carrier’s database.You need to notify the carrier and set up mobile accounts for each unityou are activating. The Electronic Serial Number (ESN hex 63xxxxxx)that you need to supply to your carrier is located in two places:SOn the outside of the 760 Computer shipping box.SOn the inside of the 760 Computer battery compartment. The labelwould include the term “ESN” and a bar code along with the serialnumber.The ESN comes in both decimal and hexadecimal formats. Most carriersaccept either format, but with a preference for the decimal format. Youonly need to provide one number to your carrier.SThe decimal format consists of 11 digits, beginning with “099.”SThe hexadecimal format is an 8-digit number, beginning with “63.”Accounts for Verizon and Sprint carriers can be set up for data only. Cana-dian carriers (Telus and Bell Mobility) can be set for data only, voice only,or both voice and data. This is determined by your application and theservices your carrier offers.After the all ESNs are provided to the carrier and the carrier has estab-lished the accounts, you will be provided with the lock codes and tele-phone numbers needed to complete the activation process. You use theSB555 Watcher program to accomplish this task. Be sure to write down thisinformation for future use.Note: Ensure that you receive a spreadsheet with your order that calls outall ESNs in both decimal and hexadecimal formats.

The 700Color Computer is such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to controland configure the 700 Color Computer anywhere on an SNMP-enablednetwork.The 700 Color Computer supports four proprietary Management Infor-mation Bases (MIBs) and Intermec Technologies provides SNMP supportfor MIB-II through seven read-only MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB) ObjectIdentifiers (OIDs).Note: You can only query these seven OIDs through an SNMP manage-ment station.Management Information BaseThe Management Information Base is a database that contains informationabout the elements to be managed. The information identifies the manage-ment element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, Read-Write). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a ma-chine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to be managedare represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such objects.You will find the following MIB files either in the 700 Color ManagementTools or on the web via www.intermec.com:SINTERMEC.MIBDefines the root of the Intermec MIB tree.SITCADC.MIBDefines objects for Automated Data Collection (ADC), such as barcode symbologies.SITCSNMP.MIBDefines objects for Intermec SNMP parameters and security methods,such as an SNMP security IP address.SITCTERMINAL.MIBDefines objects for 700 Color parameters, such as key clicks.

Thefollowing I/O control codes are defined:#define IOCTL_NPCP_CANCELCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x400,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_BINDCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x401,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_CLOSECTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x402,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_ERRORCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x403,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSHCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x404,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_IOCTLCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x405,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)#define IOCTL_NPCP_PRTVERCTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x406,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS)SIOCTL_NPCP_CANCELThis cancels all printing at the printer. It flushes the printer buffers andreinitializes the printer to its default state. No parameters are required.SIOCTL_NPCP_BINDThis command is required before any data is sent or received by theprinter. Once the driver is opened, the application must bind the com-munications session with the printer before any data can be sent or re-ceived by the printer. If an error occurs during the bind, the applicationmay use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the current extended errorcode. No parameters are required.SIOCTL_NPCP_CLOSEThis command closes the current session with the printer. This functionalways returns TRUE. No parameters are required.SIOCTL_NPCP_ERRORThis command returns the extended NPCP error code in PL/N format.The word returned will contain the PL/N compatible error code in thelow byte and completion flags in the high byte. If the frame that re-turned an error was not received correctly by the printer theFRAME_NOT_ACKED bit will be set in the high byte. This operationalways returns TRUE. An output buffer of at least 2 bytes is required.See “NPCP Error Codes” on page 203.SIOCTL_NPCP_FLUSHThis command allows the application to poll the printer for errors whilethe report is completing the print process at the printer. If an error oc-curs during the polling process, the operation will return FALSE andthe application can get the extended error code by usingIOCTL_NPCP_ERROR. No parameters are required.
Printer SupportChapter —5202 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualNPCP Printer CommunicationsAll NPCP printer communications should be based on the following flow:1Use CreateFile(); to open the printer driver.2Use IOCTL_NPCP_BIND to bind a session with the printer;IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to check for errors on the bind to ensure suc-cess; and IOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL to cancel any outstanding printjobs.3Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer to free up printer buff-er resources. Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’s status. Ifan error is reported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERRORto get the error and determine the correct recovery procedure.4Use WriteFile(); to write your data to the printer. Check for errors andthat all data were written. Use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the ex-tended error. If the error is critical in nature, useIOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE, followed by CloseFile(), to end the commu-nications session. Start a new session, beginning with step 1 to ensureproper printing. For noncritical errors display the error and retry theoperation.5After all data is sent to the printer, ensure that the printer continues toprint the report properly by polling the printer’s status. UseIOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’s status. If an error is re-ported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get theerror and determine the correct recovery procedure.Sample CodeSee sample code in the “\700C Dev Tools\Installable Drivers\PortDrivers\Npcp\NPCPPrint\” directory for more details on printing, printercommunications and error code handling.

Printer SupportChapter —5204 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualO’Neil Printer DriverThe DTR printer communications driver is a Stream Device Drivernamed ONEIL.DLL.All applications use WIN32 API functions to access drivers. Basicoperations are easily implemented by applications through theCreateFile(), WriteFile(), DeviceIOControl() and CloseHandle() Win32APIs.The driver supports communications to 6804DM, 6804T, 6805A, 6806,6808, 681T, and PB20 printers over a selected serial port.DTR Driver Installation and RemovalYour application must install the device driver by using the RegisterDe-vice() function. The driver name is ONEIL.DLL. We recommend thatyou use “DTR” for the Device Name parameter, “1” for the Device Driv-er index parameter, and use any of the following strings for the last param-eter:SNULL (==0) Defaults to COM1 @ 9600S“COM1” only COM port specified defaults to 9600S“COM1:9600” sets to COM port and specified bit rateS“COM1:19200” sets to COM port and specified bit rateUse the HANDLE returned by RegisterDevice() as the parameter toDeregisterDevice(). The correct usage of the RegisterDevice() function callis demonstrated below. You may use DeregisterDevice() to uninstall thedriver.Install(){HANDLE hDevice;TCHAR port[6];port[0] = TCHAR(‘C’);port[1] = TCHAR(‘O’);port[2] = TCHAR(‘M’);port[3] = TCHAR(‘1’);port[4] = TCHAR(‘:’);port[5] = TCHAR(0);hDevice = RegisterDevice ( (TEXT(”DTR”), 1, TEXT(”\\WINDOWS\\ONEIL.DLL”),(DWORD)port);}
Printer Support—Chapter 5205700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s ManualOpening the DTR DriverThe application opens the DTR driver by using the CreateFile() function.The call can be implemented as follows:hFile = CreateFile(_T(”DTR1:”), GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL,OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);The first parameter “DTR1:” must reflect the device name and index usedin the RegisterDevice() function call.The function call will fail for any of the following reasons:SThe port associated with the device during RegisterDevice() is currentlyin use.SThe DTR device is already open.SThe share mode is not set to zero. The device cannot be shared.SAccess permissions are not set to GENERIC_WRITE.Closing the DTR DriverUsing the CloseHandle() (hFile) function closes the DTR driver. WherehFile is the handle returned by the CreateFile() function call.STRUE indicates the device is successfully closed.SFALSE indicates an attempt to close a NULL HANDLE or an alreadyclosed device.Writing to the DTR DriverYou can use the WriteFile() function to send all Print data to the printer.The print data being written must contain the proper formatting printercommands.DTR Printer CommunicationsAll DTR printer communications should be based on the following flow:1Use CreateFile() to open the printer driver.2Use WriteFile() to write your data to the printer. Check for errors andthat all data were written.3Use CloseHandle() to close the driver.
