Enabler Installation and Configuration

Introduction

Although the HX3 has no display or alphanumeric keypad, HX3 control panels can be viewed and parameters manipulated
using LXEConnect and ActiveSync on a connected host computer.
The HX3 does not have a touch screen. If the host computer has a touch screen, instructions using "tap" and "stylus" instead of
"click" and "mouse" apply.
This section discusses 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.
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 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.
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 HX3 by Honeywell; however, the device is not
configured to launch the Enabler installation file automatically. The installation application must be run manually the first time
Avalanche is used.
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 HX3 reboots.
