System Overview
SAM PC and PPC
The SAM system consists of a PocketPC with SAM software that collects data
that shall be transferred to Tracy.
ActiveSync from Microsoft is used to transfer the data (files) to the PC when the
PocketPC is docked into the cradle.
The program in the desktop PC loads these files containing unit-data from the
site and what actions are to be performed on the units.
The software in the PocketPC is described in this User Guide and ActiveSync in
the Help section in the application itself.
Pressing one of the three yellow buttons activates the scanner.
