how to update files on drive C, and explains how to use the PC card drive.

Software Provided With the JANUS 2050

The JANUS 2050 has a number of applications that assist you in running the
computer and collecting bar code data.
DOS Your 4MB JANUS device comes with MS-DOS 6.2 and supports many
standard MS-DOS 6.2 commands. Use DOS commands and utilities to transfer
files, create and run programs, create a RAM drive, and access files on PC
cards. For help using MS-DOS commands, see any MS-DOS manual.
DOS also has a communications program called Interlnk/Intersvr that allows
the JANUS 2050 to access the drives on a host computer as if they were on the
JANUS 2050 and vice versa. Use the /b switch on the JANUS 2050 command
line with Interlnk/Intersvr to make optimum use of the monochromatic
display. Chapter 6, "Communicating With the JANUS 2050," discusses this
program.
Configuration application You can use the configuration application to
configure the JANUS 2050 with pull-down menus and dialog boxes. This
application lets you modify the JANUS 2050 for your specific needs, such as
decoding bar code symbologies, defining communications protocols, and
setting JANUS 2050 operations. You can run the configuration application by
entering the ic command from the DOS prompt. For more information on
configuration, refer to Chapter 4, "Configuring the JANUS 2050."
Communications Manager You can use the Communications Manager utility to
transmit and receive files, and request status. Companion Disk 3, shipped with
the JANUS 2050, contains the Communications Manager utility. You need to
load the Communications Manager files on the JANUS 2050 before running the
utility. Chapter 6, "Communicating With the JANUS 2050," discusses
Communications Manager in more detail.
IRL or IRL Desktop You can use the IRL or IRL Desktop to transmit, clear, and
receive files, and download and run IRL programs. You can run the IRL
Desktop by entering the irl command from the DOS prompt. For more
information on IRL, refer to Chapter 7, "Working With IRL."
Boot utilities You can use this set of programs to reload or upgrade the
JANUS 2050 system software. Chapter 8, "Troubleshooting," discusses these
programs in more detail.
