Creating Configuration Bar Codes with eXpress Config
When a software package contains Summit radio software, eXpress Config can be used to create bar codes to configure the
basic parameters that allow a mobile device to connect with the wireless network and the Mobile Device Server. The configura-
tion screens appear similar to those for any other Honeywell software package, as described in the previous section, but with
some notable differences:
•The Configure Barcodes… button is only present when the software package is for Summit radio software. The Configure
Barcodes… button is not present for Summit software revisions released prior to the eXpress Scan feature.
• This option only provides configuration data. No software is downloaded to the mobile device. However, once the
configuration bar codes are used to configure the mobile device to contact the wireless network and Mobile Device Server,
software upgrades can then be performed.
• When Configure Barcodes… is selected, the parameters available for configuration differ from the parameters available
when Configure Package… is selected.
• The Menu bar includes a Barcode > Print option.
Launch eXpress Config through the Avalanche MC Console by right clicking on the software module package name and
select Configure Package on the right click menu. Then select eXpress Config – Barcodes from the Configure Package
menu.
If eXpress Config – Barcodes is not present, one or more of the following applies:
• The software package is not a Summit radio package.
• The Summit radio package does not meet the minimum revision requirements.
• eXpress Config does not meet the minimum revision requirements.
Note: Contact Technical Assistance (page 6-1) for upgrade availability and minimum revision requirements.
There may be two eXpress Config entries, depending on the currently selected software package.
• eXpress Config – Barcodes is present for some Summit radio software packages and is the option covered in this section.
• eXpress Config – Config is present for all software packages and is the option covered in Configuring a Software Package
with eXpress Config (page 4-4).
It is not necessary to save the configuration parameters before printing the bar codes.
If Save is selected, the saved parameters become part of the software package and are sent if the software package is
deployed in the Avalanche MC Console. If Save is not selected, the bar codes can be printed, but the software package, if
deployed, does not contain the configuration data included in the bar codes.
Process Overview
Prerequisite: Remote Management Utility (RMU) (page 1-2) that includes eXpress Scan is installed on the target device.
Devices manufactured after October 2007 already include this updated RMU as part of the system load. Installation of the
RMU is detailed in Preparing a Mobile Device for Remote Management.
1. Download the software module from Honeywell.
2. Run eXpress Config by double-clicking the eXpress Config icon on the desktop or in Start > Programs > Honeywell.
3. Browse to the location of the software for the Summit radio.
4. Specify a destination to store the package that is created.
5. Click the Configure Barcodes button to configure the parameters.
a. Review parameters in the Navigation Tree (page 4-11).
b. Left click a parameter to expand the element. See Controls (page 4-12).
c. Left click a sub-element. See Controls (page 4-12).
d. Edit the parameter values in the Configuration Panel (page 4-12).
e. Save changes. See Menu Bar (page 4-10).
f. Print the bar codes and exit. See Menu Bar (page 4-10).
6. On a mobile device with eXpress Scan installed (as part of the Enabler installation), click on the eXpress Scan icon.
7. Enter the password, if any, used when the bar codes were created.
