Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
74 CN3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual for Windows Mobile 6.1
Installing Applications Using Microsoft ActiveSync
When you only have a few computers to update with applications, you
can copy files using Microsoft ActiveSync.
This procedure assumes that Microsoft ActiveSync is installed on
your PC and is up and running.
To install an application on the computer using ActiveSync
1 Connect to the CN3 via ActiveSync. For help, see “Connecting to
a PC” on page 43.
2 Copy the .cab files from your development PC to the CN3.
3 Warm boot or cold boot the CN3.
4 After the boot process is finished, browse to the .cab files and tap
the files to install them.
Installing Applications Using a Storage Card
For information on installing the miniSD card in the CN3, see
“Installing a miniSD or SIM Card” on page 34.
To install applications using the storage card
1 Copy your application file to the miniSD card.
2 Install the miniSD card in the CN3.
3 On your CN3, browse to the Storage Card folder and run your
application.
Installing Applications Using the FTP Server
The CN3 has a built-in FTP server that connects to a network through
Ethernet, 802.11b/g, or WAN (Wireless Access Network). You can use
the server to transfer your application file to the computer. Because
you can create FTP scripts to automate the process of copying 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
