How to Configure the CS40
You can configure many parameters of the CS40, such as the bar code
symbologies it decodes or the network settings. The values you set for
these configuration parameters determine how the CS40 operates.
There are several ways to configure the mobile computer:
• You can use the Scan-to-Connect utility, which is part of
SmartSystems Foundation, to quickly provide the computer with
the minimal information necessary to connect to a secure
network. For more information, see the next section “About
SmartSystems Foundation.”
• You can use a third party device management product that
supports the computer, such as the Microsoft System Center
Mobile Device Manager. For more information, visit the Microsoft
web site at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx.
• 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72.
