Intermec cn2a User Guide

As illustrated on the previous page, the Start screen has two 
distinct areas:

• The desktop displays shortcuts to some of the applications 

installed on the CN2A. 

• The taskbar displays the Start menu icon, the time, the 

keyboard icon, and the desktop icon the first time you turn 
on the CN2A.

Most of the default shortcuts on the desktop are standard 
Windows CE applications. However, Intermec provides shortcuts 
to two additional applications: 

• ScanDemo is a simple application you can use to verify that 

your imager is working correctly. (This application is installed 
only if your CN2A has a scanner.) For help, see “Using the 
ScanDemo Application” on page 23.

• Transcriber enables you to write on the screen with your 

stylus, and then it converts your writing to text. For help, see 
the next section, “Using Transcriber to Write on the Touch 
Screen.”

In a program that accepts writing, such as Microsoft WordPad, 
you can use your stylus to write directly on the screen. Write the 
way you do on paper (print or cursive) and the Transcriber 
program converts your writing to text.

• Double-tap the Transcriber shortcut on the desktop or go to 

Start > Programs > Transcriber.

The Transcriber Intro box appears and an icon (

) appears 

in the taskbar with a dark gray background.

• Tap the 

 icon in the taskbar.

The background of the 

 icon turns light gray to match the 

taskbar and using the stylus does not produce a line on your 
desktop.
