Connect an External Keyboard
You can attach a compact or standard external keyboard to make data
entry easier. To attach a standard keyboard, you also need an
appropriate USB cable.
1 Mount the keyboard. For help, see the installation instructions that
ship with the mounting kit.
2 Connect the keyboard to the CV31:
•
For compact keyboards, connect the keyboard cable to the AUX
port on the computer.

About External Antennas
Use an external antenna to increase the signal strength of the wireless
radio in the CV31. You can mount the antenna on a wall, forklift, or other
flat surface with hardware or adhesive-backed hook and loop fastener
material.
For most fixed installations, you should mount the antenna in a vertically-
polarized position with the cable from the antenna parallel to the floor and
ceiling. However, you may need to experiment with antenna position to
find an orientation that provides the best antenna performance. Use the
ISpyWiFi application that ships on the computer to determine which
antenna position provides the best signal strength.

How to Develop and Install Applications
Use the Intermec Resource Kits to develop applications to run on the
mobile computer. The Resource Kits are a library of C++, .NET, Java, and
web components grouped by functionality that you can use to create
applications for the computer. The Resource Kits are part of the Intermec
Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded from the Intermec
How to Package Your Application
After you develop your application, you need to package it for installation
on your mobile computer. For very simple applications, the executable file
may be the only file you need to deploy. Typically, you will have a set of
files to install. Intermec recommends using cabinet (.cab) files to install
more complex applications. The computer uses standard Windows
Mobile .cab files and will install third-party .cab files.

•
Object store (root directory)
The non-volatile Flash File Store. Applications and data in the Flash
File Store will persist through a clean boot or if you reflash the
operating system image.
•
The optional microSD card. Depending on available disk space, you
may want to consider installing your application files on the microSD
card. Using a card creates the Storage Card folder on the computer.
Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the
computer if the Autouser.dat file has been edited correctly. All .cab files
in each CABFILES folder are automatically extracted after a cold boot.
For more information about AutoRun, see the Intermec Developer Library
