Enabler Installation and Configuration
Introduction
This section discusses mobile device supported features with Wavelink Avalanche Mobile Device Servers. This section is split
into three basic areas:
• Installation
• User Interface
• Enabler Configuration
Installation
To use the Wavelink Avalanche MC System, the following items are required:
• A desktop or laptop PC on which to install the Avalanche MC Console.
• A desktop or laptop PC on which to install the Avalanche Mobile Device Server (this can be the same PC where the Avalanche
MC Console is installed).
• Wavelink Avalanche MC Console 4.2 or later.
• A Wavelink Device License for each client device.
• Supported mobile devices with Enablers installed, see Supported Devices (page 1-3).
To use Avalanche Remote Control, the follow additional items are required:
• Wavelink Remote Control plug-in, 2.0 or later
• A Wavelink Remote Control License for each client device
Installing the Enabler on Mobile Devices
Supported Devices (page 1-3) have the Avalanche Enabler installation files loaded, but not installed, on the mobile device
when it is shipped. The installation files are located in the \System folder on Windows devices.
Supported devices manufactured before April 2007 must have some software components upgraded before they can use
the Avalanche Enabler functions described in this guide. Contact Technical Assistance (page 6-1) for details on upgrading
the mobile device baseline.
Note: Important: If the user is NOT using Wavelink Avalanche to manage their mobile device(s), the Enabler should not
be installed on the mobile device(s). Doing so results in unnecessary delays when booting the device.
The Avalanche Enabler installation file HSM_ENABLER.CAB is loaded on the mobile device by Honeywell; however, the
device is not configured to launch the Enabler installation file automatically. The installation application must be run manu-
ally the first time Avalanche is used.
Note: Older versions of the Enabler may have an LXE_ENABLEER.CAB file or a device specific name such as
LXE_XXX_ENABLER.CAB.
After installation, the Enabler runs as a background application monitoring for updates. This behavior can be modified by
accessing the Avalanche Update Settings panel through the Enabler interface.
The RMU.CE.CAB file is placed on the device during manufacturing in the \System\RMU folder.
During the Enabler installation process, the Enabler checks for the RMU.CE.CAB file in the \System folder.
• If present, it assumes the RMU.CE.CAB file is already installed and continues.
• If the file RMU.CE.CAB file is not present, it looks for the file in the \System\RMU folder.
• If present, the Enabler copies the file to the \System folder and installs it.
At this point, the OS will automatically install the Remote Management Utility (RMU) after the mobile device reboots.
VX6/VX7 Enabler Installation
Because the VX6 and VX7 computers have two possible network adapters (the optional internal adapter for a cabled
network connection and the wireless network card), the Enabler uses the first network adapter it discovers. In order to
assure the Enabler uses the wireless connection, perform one of the following actions:
• Select the Adapters tab in the Enabler setup (See Adapters (page 2-17)) and make sure the wireless adapter is
selected for Current Adapter.
