Rapid Deployment Client; Airbeam Smart - Motorola MK3000 Product Reference Manual

5 - 22 MK3000 MicroKiosk for Windows CE 5.0 Product Reference Guide

Rapid Deployment Client

The Rapid Deployment (RD) Client facilitates software downloads to an MK3000 from a Mobility Services
Platform (MSP) Console's FTP server. The MSP Console is a web-based interface to the wireless
infrastructure monitoring and management tools provided by the MSP Lite or MSP Enterprise server.
When software packages transfer to the FTP server, an MK3000 on the wireless network can download them
by scanning RD bar codes encoding the location of the software packages. Multiple MK3000s can scan a
single RD bar code.
NOTE For detailed information about the Rapid Deployment Client and creating RD bar codes, refer to the MSP
3.X User's Guide.

AirBEAM Smart

The AirBEAM Smart product transfers specially designed software packages between a host server and
Motorola wireless device. Before transfer, AirBEAM Smart checks and compares package version, so that only
updated packages load.
AirBEAM Smart resides on radio-equipped client devices and allows them to request, download, and install
software, as well as to upload files and status data. A single communications session can accomplish both
download and upload of files. The ability to transfer software over a radio network can greatly reduce the
logistical efforts of client software management.
In an AirBEAM Smart system, a network-accessible host server acts as the storage point for the software
transfer. The AirBEAM Smart Client uses the industry standard FTP or TFTP file transfer protocols to check the
host system for updates and, if necessary, to transfer updated software.
NOTE For more information about AirBEAM Smart, refer to the AirBEAM
Reference Guide and AirBEAM
Package Builder Product Reference Guide.
