Chapter 6 Creating/Loading Hex Images Introduction Terminal Configuration Manager (TCM) is an application used to customize flash file system partitions for the mobile computer. The most common use is to create an application partition hex file that contains the customer's application. TCM can also be used to load hex files to the flash memory of the mobile computer.
6-2 MC3000 Integrator Guide Starting Terminal Configuration Manager Click the Start > Programs > Symbol > Symbol Device Configuration Packages > MC3000 C42V1.0 to start TCM. The TCM window appears displaying two child windows: Script1 and File Explorer. The Script1 window contains a newly created script and the File Explorer window contains a file explorer view used for selecting files to be placed in the script. Figure 6-1 TCM Script 1 Window Table 6-1 lists the TCM window components.

Chapter 8 Staging and Provisioning Introduction This chapter describes how to stage devices using Rapid Deployment and provisioning using MSP Agent or AirBEAM Smart. Staging Staging is the process of setting up the mobile computer to download packages for provisioning. The mobile computer uses the Rapid Deployment (RD) Client for staging. NOTE OEM version 04.22.0001 and lower use MSP 2.X RD Client version 1.9.0. OEM version 05.26.0000 and higher use MSP 3.X RD Client version 3.28. RD Client Version 1.9.
