Lesson 3: Configuring M-Business Anywhere

This lesson describes how to configure M-Business Anywhere and synchronize the UltraLite tutorial channel.

 Configure M-Business Anywhere
  1. Open the M-Business Anywhere administration console and log in as Admin (without a password).

  2. Create a new user named tutorial.

  3. Create a channel for the user:

    1. Use the following settings for the channel. Make sure to substitute the correct URL for your web server:

      • Channel Title   UltraLite Tutorial.

      • Channel URL   http://<yourwebserver>/tutorial/main.htm.

        The location is the URL of the tutorial main.htm page, as served by your web server.

      • Channel Size   1000 KB.

      • Channel Link Depth   3.

      • Allow Binary Distribution   true (checked).

      • Hide From Users   false (unchecked).

The user and channel are now set up on M-Business Anywhere. The next step is to synchronize the content of this channel to an M-Business client. You can do this from whichever platform you want to use.

 Synchronize the channel for your device

This procedure assumes that you have an M-Business client installed. It is recommended that you click Tools » Options and set the client options to Show JavaScript Errors. This setting provides for easier debugging of any errors in your application.

  • Synchronize the UltraLite channel to your device.

    At this stage there is no content for your application, so the page appears blank.
