DESCRIPTION:  
This utility will place a set of files on a server for later 
installation of the T1000 Client Manager firmware upgrade. Once the 
files are placed on the server, the System Administrator will either 
place the files in an FTP site area, or use the T1000 Client Manager 
Tool to remotely "push" the firmware upgrade to the selected T1000 
Clients.

Enhancements/Fixes:

ENHANCEMENT#1: Microsoft Windows CE Version 2.12 core OS updates. 
ENHANCEMENT#2: Citrix MetaFrame 1.8 support via a new client, 
  Version 4.10, build 752, and includes the following functionality.
  Local printer support - Allows administrator to indicate a specific 
    printer is attached to a client reducing the current per connection
    configuration.
  Reducer code - Reduces the network traffic due to more efficient use 
    of the protocol
  Business Recovery - Support fail over to a backup server in the event 
    of primary server disruption Note:  This new client does not 
    support local Program Neighborhood
ENHANCEMENT#3: Secure ICA; is an encryption feature in the ICA client. 
    A corresponding Citrix component on the server is required for the 
    encryption support to work. There are three levels of encryption 
    and v3.4 contains only the basic encryption for use worldwide. 
    This Citrix encryption format is native to the standard ICA 
    protocol. 
ENHANCEMENT#4: PCMCIA Token Ring; support for the Racore Token Ring 
    card Model M8134 (revision C or greater).  
ENHANCEMENT#5: PCMCIA Wireless; support for the Lucent WaveLan IEEE 
    802.11 PCMCIA card.  
ENHANCEMENT#6: LPD printing; will allow the T1000 to act like a simple
    network print server such as the HP JetDirect box. The basic 
    operation will allow an NT or UNIX box to communicate to a printer 
    attached to the T1000 through the LPD network protocol. The T1000 
    will take the printer data and directly route it to the printer. 
    There will not be any type of spool functionality provided within 
    the T1000 and only one printer device will be supported.
ENHANCEMENT#7: Wake on LAN; (WOL) allows a system administration tool, 
    such as the T1000 Client Manger v1.0.2.1, to administer a T1000 at 
    any time, even when the T1000 is in the OFF state. When in OFF 
    state, the T1000 still checks each packet on the network and looks 
    for a specific signature within the frame that can wake the T1000 
    up and allow administration.  
ENHANCEMENT#8: Auto Configure on power-up; this feature removes the 
    requirement of going through the T1000 Setup Wizard on power-up. 
    Instead, the user may simply let the T1000 automatically configure 
    its IP address and even launch a particular ICA session. When the 
    Setup Wizard is first presented to the user, a timeout value 
    countdown occurs. During this countdown, the user may continue with
    the Setup Wizard or let the timeout expire, thus invoking the Auto 
    Configure.
ENHANCEMENT#9: Port Lock; this feature disables the T1000 ports, serial
    and/or parallel, preventing any resident application access to them.
ENHANCEMENT#10: Single Selection PPP Connect; allows user to make a 
    single selection to initiate a dial-up followed by a connection. 
    A connection can either be ICA, RDP or a terminal emulation mode.
ENHANCEMENT#11: IBM5250 Record & Play; this function allow you to store,
    retrieve, and display data with a single key entry. The record/play
    functions eliminate repetitive operations. Instead of typing the 
    same data, the T1000 can store the data and recall it. The data 
    remains in non-volatile storage when saved.
ENHANCEMENT#12: 122 Key keyboard support; supports Affirmative Model 
    1220 122 keyboard for IBM5250 mode.
ENHANCEMENT#13: Terminal Emulation LPD Client Support; allows spooling
    of print jobs to remote LPD network devices.
ENHANCEMENT#14: Audible Tone; in ICA sessions the T1000 will generate 
    an audible tone without external speakers.
ENHANCEMENT#15: Terminal Emulation Security; Two layers of security 
    a) Terminal Setup Wizard and b)Account Privilege Properties:
    Administrator: As an administrator, a person named in the 
      "Username" field has system wide authority to do anything and 
      everything including creating, deleting, and modifying other 
      users and administrator accounts. No restriction is imposed on 
      this privilege.
    User: A person named in the "Username" field with the "user" 
       privilege has limited authority to perform certain tasks. 
       These tasks are: Change password, Configure network including
       dialup via PPP, User convenience settings such as screen 
       resolution, language, etc. and start either dialup or network 
       connection
    Guest: Guest privilege is the most restrictive of all. A person 
       with "guest" privilege can only do: Initiate a dialup connection
       via PPP, user convenience settings such as screen resolution, 
       language, etc. and start a network connection.
ENHANCEMENT#16:"G" key disable; support Users Interface Properties 
    Security Field to disable "G" key reset. When enabled the unit 
    cannot be reset to defaults. Using security you can deny access to
    this field to users/guest. NOTE: If security is enabled and the 
    administrator password is lost, a RELOAD of firmware into the Flash
    memory is required to recover. 


HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your server's hard drive.
   The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 
   Entering "Y" to confirm the unpacking of files creates a new 
   directory folder in the download directory.  All files are unpacked
   into this newly created directory.

3. The firmware may be either "pulled" to the T1000 via placing the 
   files on an FTP site and the user invoking the upgrade from the 
   T1000, or "pushed" to the T1000 by placing the files in a folder 
   for access/use by the T1000 Client Manager.

4. After the installation of the files is completed, you may delete 
   the self-extracting file downloaded in Step 1.
