What the Installation Utility Does

The JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility configures JANUS RF devices to work in an Intermec 2.4 GHz RF network. The Installation Utility creates drive images for the devices that include the network software that allows these devices to connect with a Novell network or a TCP/IP-based network. The Installation Utility runs on a host PC in the DOS environment or a DOS window and uses a DOS text-based interface to prompt you for client network and radio operating parameters.

The Installation Utility:

• Allows you to easily configure your JANUS device. All you have to do is fill

in the fields and follow the instructions on your screen.

• Verifies that your host PC has the necessary files, memory, and hard disk

space to ensure successful installation.

1-3

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

• Frees enough space on the JANUS device to install the network software.

The Installation Utility deletes the IRL Desktop, the Intermec 900 MHz RF Protocol Handler, and some DOS utilities.

• Provides a shell out option before the drive images are built to allow you to

change the contents of the drive images, add a security ID, modify JANUS configuration parameters, or perform any other DOS command.

• Saves time when configuring multiple JANUS RF devices by retaining the

drive C and drive D images from the first device.

In a typical Intermec 2.4 GHz RF network, the JANUS RF devices communicate with the access points, wireless to wired bridges, that pass the packets through Ethernet on to the host.

How the Installation Utility Works

This section provides you with an overview of how the Installation Utility works.

1. JANUS drive images are extracted from the companion disks.

2. Selected JANUS files are removed from the drive C and drive D subdirectories to create space for the network software and radio drivers.

• Network software, radio drivers, configuration files, and optional

terminal emulation software are added.

• Data collection applications can be added.

3. New JANUS drive C and drive D images are downloaded to the connected JANUS device.

Learning About the Installation Utility

Note:

After you configure the first JANUS device, additional devices may be programmed using most of the data you entered on the first installation. The Installation Utility provides the option for multiple installations, allowing you to change the data you entered on the first installation. The Installation Utility then rebuilds the applicable images for downloading to the next device.

Modifying the JANUS Drive Images

The Installation Utility gives you a chance to modify the contents of drives C and D before the drive images are built. When running the Installation Utility, a message box appears asking if you want to shell out to the DOS command line. Using DOS commands or a DOS file editor, you can add, delete, or change files.

Drive C Image

The scratch drive (\IM_FLASH\DRIVEC) is where the drive C image is built that is downloaded to the JANUS RF device. In this directory, the Installation Utility removes files that are not needed for the JANUS device to operate in an Intermec 2.4 GHz RF network.

The list of files that are going to be deleted are in \IM_FLASH\DRIVECX. If there is a file that you do not want the Installation Utility to delete in the DRIVECX subdirectory, copy the file back to \IM_FLASH\DRIVEC. If you add too many files to the subdirectory and it does not have enough free disk space to load the network software, an error message will appear. Choose files in DRIVEC to delete to create the necessary free disk space.

See Appendix A for a complete list of the files that are deleted to create the necessary free space.

Drive D Image

The scratch drive (\IM_FLASH\DRIVED) is where the drive D image is built that is downloaded to the JANUS RF device. In this directory, the Installation Utility creates the necessary disk space for the Novell network software by deleting unnecessary JANUS files. See Appendix A for a complete list of the files that are deleted to create the necessary free space.

The Installation Utility copies the Novell network subdirectory structure from the installation directory to the DRIVED directory.

• If you are installing NetWare Client for DOS, the JANUS drive D network

subdirectory structure looks like: D:\NWCLIENT

|_ NLS

|_ ENGLISH

1-5

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

• If you are installing LAN WorkPlace for DOS, or PC/TCP for DOS, the

JANUS drive D network subdirectory structure looks like: D:\NET

See Appendix A for a list of the minimum required files for a LAN WorkPlace installation.

This list of files that are going to be deleted are in \IM_FLASH\DRIVEDX. Default drive D files are copied to \IM_FLASH\DRIVED. If there is a file that you do not want to delete in DRIVEDX, you need to copy it back to the DRIVED directory and choose another file in the DRIVED directory to delete so you can create the necessary free disk space.

The Installation Utility also copies special drivers from the program disk to the RAM drive directory. These drivers are:

• RL2OEM.COM, the radio driver

• MINIPM.EXE, the radio power management driver

Downloading the New JANUS Drive Images

The Installation Utility makes a new drive C image from the files in \IM_FLASH\DRIVEC. It makes a new drive D image from the files in \IM_FLASH\DRIVED. It then downloads these new drive images to the JANUS RF device.

The Installation Utility asks you if you want to perform another installation on another device. You can save time by configuring all the devices in your network at the same time. For each subsequent device you configure, the Installation Utility does not download and then upload the drive C and D images again.

When you finish running the Installation Utility, a message box appears asking you if you want to discard the files that it generated. You can save the files for future reference or you can discard the files.

Preparing to Run the Installation Utility

This chapter tells you what information you need to obtain before running the Installation Utility. It also helps you understand the parameters.

Why Read This Chapter?

Running the Installation Utility, it can take up to 10 minutes to configure your first JANUS RF device depending on the baud rate you use for data transmission. Once you start running the Installation Utility, you must either complete the entire procedure to configure the first JANUS RF device or abandon the procedure and start over again. You cannot stop and then restart the process in the middle. Completing the installation tasks will be easier if you understand this chapter and have the correct configuration parameter information before you start.

Setting Up the Host PC

You can use any type of PC as your host PC as long as it meets the minimum system requirements listed in “Host PC Requirements” in Chapter 1.

Preparing to Run the Installation Utility

Creating a HOSTS File

If you are using Intermec or Novell terminal emulation (LAN WorkPlace for DOS), you can create a HOSTS file in the directory \NET\TCP on the host PC. The Installation Utility will download the HOSTS file to the JANUS RF device. The HOSTS file is a hostname database that contains a list of the remote hosts that you can reach. Each line contains the host IP address and its aliases. For example:

192.9.175.274 host1

192.9.175.13 sunhost1

This ASCII text file must be less than 50K or it will not fit on the JANUS device. 50K is enough space to support a large network, most data collection networks will require a much smaller file. If you choose not to create a HOSTS file, this non-fatal diagnostic message appears during the installation.

Warning, HOSTS Too Large or Not Found, Continue?

Refer to your network documentation for help on creating and interpreting HOSTS files.

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

Understanding Configuration Parameters

Use the following configuration parameter definitions when you fill in fields on the terminal selection, character set, network, and radio parameters screens.

Terminal Selection Screen

Use the Choose a Device to Configure screen to specify the type of JANUS device that you want to configure.

Network/Protocol Selection Screen

If your JANUS device is going to emulate a terminal, use the Select a Network/Protocol screen to specify the terminal type. The Installation Utility will load the appropriate terminal emulation application. Refer to the JANUS

2.4 GHz Terminal Emulation Quick Reference Guide for information about using Intermec terminal emulation software.

Note: If you configure your JANUS device to run terminal emulation software, a terminal emulation session will start after you complete the installation and reboot the device. If you do not want the terminal session to start, you need to modify your APP.BAT file or you can add a REM before the statement in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file that calls the APP.BAT file.

Intermec TNVTxxx Emulation This Intermec software allows your device to emulate a VT120/220/320 or ANSI terminal using a telnet session.

2-4

Preparing to Run the Installation Utility

Intermec 3270 or 5250 Emulation This Intermec software allows your device to

emulate an IBM 3270 or 5250 terminal using a telnet session.

Note:

The UDP+ option is for communication with the Model 200 Controller.

Novell TNVTxxx Emulation Select this option to configure your JANUS device to emulate a VT120/220/320 or ANSI terminal using a telnet session. You may also need to load an application when running this emulation.

NetWare Client for DOS This Novell software allows your device to run your applications using SPX/IPX protocol.

FTP PC/TCP Stack This TCP/IP stack allows your JANUS device to run applications using the PC/TCP stack from FTP Corporation.

Note:

To install the FTP PC/TCP stack you will need to purchase the FTP PC/TCP

Stack Disk (P/N 067791). See your Intermec sales representative to order the FTP disk.

Character Set Screen

The Choose a Character Set selection screen configures your JANUS RF device for the selected character set.

The Installation Utility supports international character sets for France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The default BIOS keyboard driver supports the U.S. character set. An international character set allows DOS to display date and time prompts, currency symbols, date separators, time separators, and decimal separators in the standard format of the chosen country. The international character set drivers do not translate DOS message text.

If you select a non-U.S. character set, these actions are performed when the CONFIG.SYS file is processed:

• The COUNTRY configuration command is executed, which customizes

country-dependent information (such as date and time formats, currency symbols, collating sequences, etc.) for a particular country.

• The DISPLAY.SYS device driver is loaded to support code page (character

set) switching for the console device (LCD).

2-5

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

If you select a non-U.S. character set, these actions are performed when the AUTOEXEC.BAT file is processed:

• The appropriate code page is selected.

• The appropriate code page is prepared.

• The KEYB.COM program is loaded to replace the current keyboard driver.

About the Radio Parameters

Use the Radio Parameters screen to configure the parameters that are required for your JANUS RF device to communicate with access points. All devices in the same subnetwork must have the same domain and the same security ID. Security IDs are optional. Use different domains on devices if they are in the same area and you want the devices to communicate to different hosts.

Each domain (subnetwork), must have one acting master to coordinate communications from the various stations. For most network operating systems, the access point is the master. If the master unit is turned off or is out of range, then one of the other access points configured as an alternate master becomes the master. For most network operating systems, the JANUS RF devices are stations.

If the inactivity settings are exceeded and your radio is placed into Sleep mode, you can wake up the radio by either answering yes to the Wake Up on Broadcast parameter, or you can physically suspend and resume the JANUS RF device (press the L button twice) when the device is running.

Note: Intermec recommends that you keep the default settings for Inactivity Minutes and Inactivity Seconds. The default setting ensures that you will receive optimum battery life on JANUS devices with removable batteries.

About the NET.CFG Parameters

Depending on how you filled in the fields in the Installation Options screen, the following parameters are added to the NET.CFG file.

IP Address, Default Router, Subnet Mask When the TCP/IP protocol stack is loaded, it checks for values for the IP address, default router, and subnet mask.

If it does not find values for these parameters, the TCP/IP stack generates a RARP packet to be processed by a BOOTP server or an RARP server.

If you specified values for these parameters in the Installation Options screen, the Installation Utility adds the following lines under the subroutine Protocol TCPIP:

ip_router ip_netmask ip_address

defaultrouter

subnetmask ipaddress

PCTCP.INI File

The PCTCP.INI file is used to configure the FTP stack. PCTCP.INI is provided on the FTP stack disk and is modified by the Install Tool to incorporate the IP address information.

Other Useful Files

Several other files are installed on the JANUS when you run the installation utility program.

• APP.BAT calls the network application.

• GO.BAT can be run from the DOS command line. It reloads the network

drivers, and then calls the application.

• UNNET.BAT file unloads the radio and network drivers. Unloading the

network drivers is performed to maximize battery life, and to provide the maximum amount of conventional memory on the JANUS device.

• IMLOGIN.BAT changes to the network drive and logs in to the NetWare

network.

• IMLOGOUT.BAT unloads the radio and network drivers and logs out of

the NetWare network

• UDPPLUS.INI contains the IP address of the Model 200 controller and the

JANUS device.

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

Minimum Files for LAN WorkPlace Installations

Intermec recommends that you install LAN WorkPlace for DOS on a host PC that does not already have other copies/versions of LAN WorkPlace installed and perform a full LAN WorkPlace installation. Then, you can use the host PC with the full copy of LAN WorkPlace as the host PC.

When you install LAN WorkPlace for DOS on a host PC that already has other copies/versions of LAN WorkPlace, Novell’s LAN WorkPlace installation procedure may not perform a full installation. If this occurs, this may cause the Installation Utility to fail. When you specify a LAN WorkPlace installation to the Installation Utility, it checks for certain files in certain directories and the existence of the HSTACC directory. For example, if you specify that you are installing LAN WorkPlace v5.0 and C:\NET as the LAN WorkPlace directory to for the installation, the Installation Utility verifies that the following paths exist:

C:\NET\BIN\TCPIP.EXE (file) C:\NET\BIN\LSL.COM (file) (Or, have C:\NET\BIN\STARTNET.BAT start with C:\NET\BIN\FTP.EXE (file) C:\NET\BIN\FTP.MSG (file) C:\NET\BIN\TNVT220.EXE (file) C:\NET\BIN\TNVT220.MSG (file) C:\NET\BIN\LWP.MSG (file) C:\NET\BIN\TELAPI.EXE (file) C:\NET\BIN\TELAPI.MSG (file) C:\NET\BIN\TELSVC.EXE (file) C:\NET\BIN\TELSVC.MSG (file) C:\NET\HSTACC\EXTMAP.BIN (file) C:\NET\HSTACC\HOSTTOPC.MAP (file) C:\NET\HSTACC\PCTOHOST.MAP (file) C:\NET\HSTACC\T4_DEF.PAR (file) C:\TCP\HOSTS (optional file, but will generate message if it does not exist) C:\TCP\SERVICES (directory)

\LSL.COM)

A-30

Deleted, Modified, and New Files

If you specify that you are installing LAN WorkPlace v4.2 and C:\NET4.2 as the LAN WorkPlace directory for the installation, the Installation Utility verifies that the following paths exist:

C:\NET4.2\NWCLIENT\LSL.COM (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\TCPIP.EXE (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\FTP.EXE (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\FTP.MSG (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\TNVT220.EXE (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\TNVT220.MSG (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\LWP.MSG (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\TELAPI.EXE (file) C:\NET4.2\BIN\TELAPI.MSG (file) C:\NET4.2\HSTACC (directory) C:\TCP\HOSTS (optional file, but will generate message if it does not exist)

Helpful Information

This appendix explains the login procedures for NetWare servers and describes ARP table entries for TCP/IP applications. It also provides information for setting a security ID, for creating or modifying JANUS.INI files, and for configuring multiple JANUS devices using special batch files.

NetWare Client User Information

If you are a NetWare Client user, you must type IMLOGIN instead of LOGIN on your JANUS RF device when logging into a NetWare server.

When you reboot your JANUS device, it automatically runs IMLOGIN. You will usually type IMLOGIN in these situations:

• You roam out of range of an access point for an extended period of time and

the NetWare server logs your device out. When you return within range of an access point, you need to type IMLOGIN to log back onto the server.

• You do not transmit any packets using your device for an extended period

of time. Your device may be placed in a suspend state, and the NetWare server will log your device out. When you press the L button to resume using the device, you must type IMLOGIN to log back onto the network.

Helpful Information

ARP Table Entry for TCP/IP Applications

Intermec recommends that you create permanent entries for all your JANUS RF devices in the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) table of all the hosts the devices may communicate with. For help on creating ARP tables, see your TCP/IP manual.

Note: If the TCP/IP application is running on the device and it initiates an ARP packet to the host, the ARP packet from the device automatically forces an entry into the ARP table.

The ARP table maps the IP address to the physical Ethernet address. To make a permanent entry for your JANUS device in an ARP table, you need to know its host name (for example, janus1, janus2), or the IP address, along with the physical Ethernet address of the JANUS device.

During installation, the IP address is entered into a HOSTS file along with the host names and any aliases.

Example of HOSTS file

192.9.299.154 accesspoint

192.9.200.155 janus1

192.9.200.156 janus2

192.9.200.157 janus3

JANUS 2.4 GHz Installation Utility User’s Manual (4MB)

To find out the physical Ethernet address, also called the node address, for a JANUS device internal RF card, load the RL2OEM driver (normally executed in NET.BAT).

Example Showing the Node Address

C:\>rl2pcm

ROM Version V1.41e Node Type STA, Domain 15 Inactivity Time Out 5 seconds Sniffing On Standby Is: Enabled Int 3, Port 360, Mem 0B00, Node Address 20A6101021 L Max Frame 1514 bytes, Board 1, Frame ETHERNET_II, LSB Mode Board 2, Frame ETHERNET_802.2, LSB Mode

Instructions for making permanent entries into the ARP table are dependent on the host platform (for example UNIX, DOS, OS/2) and the TCP/IP stack being used.

For example, if you are using UNIX TCP/IP, you may enter the following command lines.

> arp -s janus1 00:20:A6:10:10:21 > arp -s janus2 00:20:A6:10:12:CF > arp -s janus3 00:20:A6:10:12:DC

The first line shows the first entry host name=janus1 with Ethernet address=00:20:A6:10:10:21.

Setting the Security ID on Your JANUS RF Devices

As an added security measure, you can set a security ID on all JANUS devices and access points in a 2.4 GHz RF network. All devices must have the same security ID to communicate. Setting the security ID is optional. Run this utility when you have finished configuring each JANUS device.

Use the Security ID Configuration disk to:

• set or remove a security ID on a JANUS RF device.

• identify the JANUS device node address.

• verify that the JANUS device can synchronize with an access point.

There are two ways to run this utility:

• Connect the JANUS device to a host PC and use Interlnk. The RF setup

utility copies the files to the host PC. Your host PC will need 500KB of free disk space on drive C. The utility deletes these files when you exit the program. Follow the procedure to start the utility using Interlnk and then follow the procedure to set the security ID.

• Copy the entire contents of the Security ID Configuration disk to an SRAM

card. Follow the procedure to start the utility using an SRAM card and then follow the procedure to set the security ID.

Note:

You need to perform these steps on the JANUS device. You can only see one section of a PC-size screen on the smaller display of a JG2010 or JG2020. Use the viewporting feature to move around the screen.

To start the utility using Interlnk

1. Connect your JANUS RF device to the host PC using a null modem cable.

To connect a JG2010 or JG2020, you also need a communications dock or optical link adapter. Refer to your JANUS user’s manual for more information.

2. Insert the Security ID Configuration disk in drive A on the host PC.

3. At the DOS prompt on the host PC, type this command and press Enter.

a:rfsetup

Note: If the optical link adapter supports the baud rate set to 115200, at the DOS prompt, type

rfsetup /h

The utility copies the files from the disk to the drive C on the host PC.

4. Press any key on the host PC keyboard.

5. Reboot the JANUS device by pressing > < A  .
