Compiler Requirements; Device Communications And Connectivity - Intermec Trakker T2090 User Manual

Compiler Requirements

The software libraries distributed in support of the TRAKKER T2090 and this
development kit were developed on Windows 3.11 and Windows 95, Pentium
based systems in conjunction with the Microsoft Visual C/C++ version 1.52
compiler.
Refer to Appendix B for correct settings and options.

Device Communications and Connectivity

The TRAKKER T2090 has a single serial port for communications. The port can
be configured as RS-232 via a program function call. Connection to the serial
port can be found underneath the power module.
Two female RJ-45 connectors reside on the power module. An RJ-45 to DB9 RS-
232 serial cable can be connected from the 2-slot cradle to a host computer.
Intermec supplies a DOS utility called REMDISK that runs under MS-DOS 6.22,
and can communicate with the T2090 via the power module. On the T2090, a
utility called REMSERV can be run to communicate with the REMDISK
program on the host DOS PC. This allows the user to remotely access drive C of
the T2090 on the host DOS PC. Drive C will become the next available drive on
the host DOS PC. If the last drive on the host DOS PC is D, the T2090 drive is
now E.
To run REMSERV on the T2090 and REMDISK on the PC, you can run the batch
file RT on the T2090. RT is built in to the T2090, so try running it. You should
get the following message:
Initializing RS232
RS232 Enabled!
Press ENTER to quit.
With the T2090 sitting in the dock and REMSERV running via the RT batch file,
copy REMDISK from the Intermec CD onto the host PC. On the PC, boot your
computer into DOS. Type REMDISK COM1 /B38400+ on the PC to run the
REMDISK program at 38400 BPS if you are connected to the PC on COM1. If
you are connected to COM2, then replace COM1 with COM2 in the REMDISK
command.
To uninstall REMDISK on the PC, type REMDISK /U. The RT batch file sets up
REMSERV on the T2090 to run at 38400 BPS. When the REMDISK utility is
invoked, it will identify the drive letter which will be used to access the T2090.
It uses the next logical drive on the PC; that is, if last used drive on your PC is
D, then the T2090 drive is E. Select drive E, then type DIR <ENTER>.
