DeviceConfig
Access: Start | Power Tools | EZConfig Utilities
The DeviceConfig.EXM file contains MX6 configuration settings and is stored in the \IPSM
folder. As such, the configuration settings in this file persist through cold boots and should be
considered system defaults. For example, if you use the DeviceConfig.EXM file to set up a radio,
those settings remain in the mobile device after the next cold boot.
See section titled “Using the EZConfig Editor” for details and instruction when working with the
sections and keys in the DeviceConfig Menu configuration file.
Double-tap the DeviceConfig configuration file to open it.
OR
Double-tap EZConfig Editor to open the editor, tap File | Open and select the DeviceConfig
configuration file from the selection box.
When additions/changes are finished, tap File | Save or File | Save As.
Enabling the File
By default, the sections with keys are disabled, which means that the key values are not applied.
To use the DeviceConfig.EXM file to configure the MX6, modify the file in EZConfig Editor to
enable the sections and keys as required for your configuration.
Autorun and DeviceConfig
The Autorun Configuration File launches DeviceConfig.exe during startup, which means that
DeviceConfig.exe applies the (enabled) settings in the \IPSM\DeviceConfig.EXM file after each
cold boot.
System Panel Applets and
DeviceConfig
Many settings in the DeviceConfig.EXM file, such as Connection settings, have Settings | System
or Connection Panel applets with GUIs on which the user can enter and save new values. If a user
changes a setting in the Settings Panel applet, that setting is applied but stored in RAM memory
and erased during the next cold boot. Then, as part of startup after the next cold boot, Autorun
launches DeviceConfig.exe, which then re-applies the settings in the DeviceConfig.EXM file.
