The Application Manager tool is used to copy an application from using the Get operation or to a Sedona Device using the Put operation. When launched, Application Manager displays the Get/Put Application wizard, shown in Figure 13, which leads you through the steps of each procedure.
Some reasons for using the Get option are:
To modify the application.
You may want to make application modifications offline.
To save the application as a backup.
Although, it may be more useful to make a complete backup using the Backup/Restore Tool.
To distribute the application.
You may want to distribute the application to another device.
The Put option is used simply to replace the application that is running on a device.
Additionally, when the Get or Put is done from the context of a station, this associates the device with the app file (setting the appFile ord in the Sedona Device) which allows for offline point discovery.
