AirBEAM Smart Staging
The AirBEAM Smart staging support is intended to speed up and simplify the process of staging
custom or updated operating software onto mobile devices directly from manufacturing. The staging
support is part of the AirBEAM Smart CE Client that is integrated into the mobile computer.
The AirBEAM Smart support works by defaulting the AirBEAM Smart Client configuration to a known
set of values and launching the AirBEAM Smart package download logic. A staging environment,
including an RF network, FTP server and AirBEAM Smart packages must be setup. Ideally a staging
network and server should be setup to match the default AirBEAM Staging client configuration.
The AirBEAM Smart staging utility is invoked by selecting the Files icon from the Series 9000 Demo
screen, select \Platform\AirBeam\ and double tap on the abstage.lnk file.
The AirBEAM Staging support provides several benefits:
• Many devices can be simultaneously loaded over the RF network.
• The AirBEAM staging utility provides a simple single dialog user interface that is used to
quickly start the software installation process.
