Chapter 8 — Intermec Shell Startup Program

Introduction

80 EasyCoder PF2i Bar Code Label Printer User's Guide (Fingerprint Version)
Intermec Shell is a startup program, which is a program that
automatically starts running when the printer is switched on.
Intermec Shell helps the operator to choose between a number of
standard or custom-made application programs and to start
certain useful facilities, as listed below.
Application Programs
• Intermec Fingerprint (for creating your own programs or to
run the Intermec InterDriver)
• Intermec Direct Protocol (easy-to-use slave protocol)
• LINE_AXP.PRG (line analyzer program)
• Other application programs in the printer's memory.
A prerequisite for a program to appear as an option in
Intermec Shell is that the program is provided with the
extension ".PRG" and is stored in the root of the directory
"/c" or "card1:". However, some original Intermec utility
programs are excluded as long as they remain stored in
"/rom":
• ERRHAND.PRG
• FILELIST.PRG
• LBLSHTXT.PRG
• KAUTO.PRG
• SHELLXP.PRG
• WINXP.PRG
Other Facilities
• Setup Mode (manual setup from printer's keyboard)
• Print Setup (printing setup on label)
• Testfeed (form feeds and auto-adjust of the LSS)
• Test Label (printing of test labels)
• Default setup (resetting all setup parameters to default)
