Use the Paxar  Sierra Sport Configurator (PSSC) with the Wavelink
Avalanche  Management Console software and a Monarch 9460 printer
(version 3.0 or greater firmware and version 1.4 or higher boot loader).
Purchase the Avalanche software package from the Wavelink Corporation.
Use Avalanche to manage mobile devices over networks (WAN or LAN).
There are several key elements in the Avalanche System:
♦ Avalanche
Enabler The 9460 printer has a built-in Avalanche Enabler that
allows communications between the printer and the
Avalanche Agent once the printer is turned on. You
can easily update the printer’s firmware or configuration
and receive status updates from the printer. Use
Telnet Console commands to disable the Enabler if
necessary. The printer (with the Enabler) is also
referred to as a Client.
♦ Avalanche
Agent
The Agent manages functions on the network (WAN or
LAN) and stores the settings and software for the
Clients. You can have one or more Agents throughout
your network. The Agent receives commands issued by
the Management Console.
♦ Avalanche
Management
Console Use the Management Console to issue commands to
the Agents. Your System Administrator can view and
manage all Agents and Clients on the network by
scheduling updates, identifying Client settings,
configuring profiles, and checking the status
(failure/success) of updates to each Client on the
network.
Download our .AVA package (PxrSSCfg.AVA) from our Web site
(www.paxar.com). The package contains all the files you need to connect
with Avalanche including the PSSC software.
