Chapter 8 — Intermec Shell Startup Program

Introduction

Intermec Shell is a startup program, that 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 appli-
cation 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
- MKAUTO.PRG
- SHELLXP.PRG
- WINXP.PRG
