Updating the System Software
When you upgrade your 751G, you are updating the operating system
(OS) and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) files.
The PSM files are stored in the Flash File Store region, and deliver
Intermec value-added functionality such as data collection, unit
configuration and diagnostics, the Intermec wireless security suite, and the
SmartSystems™ Foundation.
You need to download the latest upgrade files from the Intermec web site to
your desktop PC. Contact your Intermec representative for web browser
information, then do the following:
1 Start your web browser and go to the Intermec web site at the location
given by your representative.
2 Click the applicable link, fill out the appropriate information, then click
Submit Information. Click OK to continue.
3 Click the link and download the .zip file to your PC.

Using a Storage Card to Upgrade the Computer

Digital card reader and a Secure Digital card formatted as FAT.

two screws, remove the door, then remove the storage card. See the
Model 751G Mobile Computer Quick Start Guide (P/N 962-054-093) for
