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.
1
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
|_ BIN |_ HSTACC |_ PROFILE |_ DRIVERS |_ SCRIPT |_ TCP |_ LANG
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
2
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.

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).

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.
