Please use the recent Motorola EMDK for this purpose. There should no delay expect the first 10sec after start or wakeup the unit from sleep.
The link for recent EMDK for your programming language can you find in this chapter http://support.symbol.com/support/browse.do?WidgetName=BROWSE_PRODUCT&TaxoName=SG_SupportGoals&BROWSE_PRODUCT.isProductTaxonomy=true&BROWSE_PRODUCT.NodeId=SG_MC9090WM_1_2&BROWSE_PRODUCT.thisPageUrl=/product/products.do&id=m4&BROWSE_PRODUCT.TaxoName=SG_SupportGoals&NodeType=leaf&NodeName=MC9090+WM&document=DT_PRODUCTMANUALS_1_1&BROWSE_PRODUCT.NodeType=leaf&NodeId=SG_MC9090WM_1_2&AppContext=AC_ProductPage¶m_document=sp

Hi Christine.

You should be able to use the Windows CE network setup wizard (unless third party software has been enabled to manage the network in place of Windows Zero Configuration).

To setup the static IP see here: Static IP Address Settings for the Wireless Access Points.

To choose or set Wi-fi network:

Ensure Wif-Fi is enabled.
Click the Wireless symbol located at the right-bottom corner of the desktop and choose "Options"
Choose "Regulatory" from dropdown menu.
Choose country settings if required.
Check or uncheck the box for "Enable 802.11d" as required by your settings.
click again the Wireless Icon and choose "Find WLANs"
Choose the network your want to connect and click connect.


After changing network settings, restart the unit by holding down the red button 10 seconds.

You would need an application, which can use the scanner. If there is no app preinstalled use the DataWedge provided by Symbol on their support pages.
http://support.symbol.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=10774
You can install the whole package on the desktop PC and then connect your PDA. The DataWedge will be installed automatically.

Simple answer: No. The MC9090 was actually designed for WM5, therefore is WM6.1 the maximum which is possible according to the CPU, RAM and Flash Memory of the device.

Cold boot is a system reset which includes also the time. You could use an application or script to set the correct time after an cold boot.

Try doing cold boot - unlatch the battery, hold down trigger then the power button release the trigger while still holding the power button until screen resets. release the power button and wait for a screen prompt to latch the battery again. If still fails to boot you may need to do a OS update via SD card as the OS may be corrupt. BTW doing a OS update will wipe everything!

Hi Shealy,
its expected behaviour only the settings and data saved in Application folder would persist. You can save the settings in a reg files and they will be applied after restart.
You could also purchase an charging cradle or an spare battery.
