Server The server is the computer that contains the drives, directories, files,
and programs you want to access. The server's drives and printers look as if
they are on the client. Intersvr displays the status of the connection between
Interlnk and Intersvr on the server's screen.
Sometimes your reader will be the client, and sometimes it will be the server,
depending upon the task you are trying to accomplish.
Intermec suggests that you always make the host computer the client because
Interlnk requires more conventional memory than Intersvr and your host
computer probably has more conventional memory available than your JANUS
reader.
Your reader should be the client when:
• You want the drives on the host computer to show up on the reader as if
• There is an application on the host computer that you want to run on the
Your reader should be the server when:
• You want the drives on the reader to show up on the host computer as if
• There is an application on the reader that you want to run on the host
Note: The client cannot access a server's drive that was redirected before Interlnk was
started, such as a network drive.

Example of Using Interlnk

Suppose the host computer has two disk drives (A and B) and two hard drives
(C and D). The J2010 with the PCMCIA Back has five drives: three simulated
drives (C, D, and E), one Type I PC card drive (F), and one Type II PC card
drive (G).
You want access to the drives on the reader while working at the host.
Therefore, the host computer must be the client and the reader must be the
server. Run Interlnk on the host computer and run Intersvr on the reader.
Instructions for these tasks are included later in this chapter.
