Chapter 4 — Network Support SNMP Configuration Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) was developed in the late 1980s to provide a general-purpose internetworking management protocol. Its primary goal was to be simple so nothing would stand in the way of its ubiquitous deployment. To this end, it has been very successful as it is currently deployed in almost every major internetworking product on the market. However, like many achieved goals, the primary strength can also become a weakness.
Chapter 4 — Network Support Retrieval of Management Information SNMP has the get-next primitive which permits the viewing of data without requiring prior knowledge. If you know what you are looking for, the get primitive will return it. When you want an entire table of information, the get-next primitive will obtain it. However, unless employed with care, the get-next primitive can be extremely resource-intensive in real time, network bandwidth, and the agent’ s CPU time.
Chapter 4 — Network Support SNMP Configuration on the 700 Series Computer In short, SNMP is an application-layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. The 700 Series Computer is such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to control and configure the 700 Series Computer anywhere on an SNMP-enabled network.

Chapter 5 — Printer Support NPCP Printer Driver The NPCP printer communications driver (NPCPPORT.DLL) is a Stream Device Driver built into the operating system. The driver supports only NPCP communications to and from the 6820 and 4820 printers over a selected serial port. All applications use WIN32 API functions to access the drivers. Basic operations are easily implemented by applications through the CreateFile(), WriteFile(), ReadFile(), DeviceIOControl(), and CloseHandle() Win32 APIs.
Chapter 5 — Printer Support Opening the NPCP Driver The application opens the NPCP driver by using the CreateFile() function. The call can be implemented as follows. The first parameter “LPT9:” must reflect the device name and index used in the RegisterDevice() function call and will fail for any of the following reasons: hFile = CreateFile(_T(”LPT9:”), GENERIC_WRITE | GENERIC_READ, 0, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL); S The port associated with the device during RegisterDevice() is in use.
Chapter 5 — Printer Support NPCP Driver I/O Controls An application uses the DeviceIoControl() function to specify an printer operation to be performed. Certain I/O controls are required to bind and close communication sessions with the printer, and must be completed before any other commands to the driver can execute properly. The function returns TRUE to indicate the device successfully completed its specified I/O control operation, otherwise it returns FALSE.
Chapter 5 — Printer Support NPCP Printer Communications All NPCP printer communications should be based on the following flow: 1 Use CreateFile(); to open the printer driver. 2 Use IOCTL_NPCP_BIND to bind a session with the printer; IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to check for errors on the bind to ensure success; and IOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL to cancel any outstanding print jobs. 3 Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer to free up printer buffer resources. Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’ s status.
Chapter 5 — Printer Support NPCP Error Codes Call the IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR I/O control function to receive PL/N compatible error codes. Applications must decide how to act upon the data returned.

Chapter 7 — Programming FTP Server FTP support is provided through the FTP Server application FTPDCE.EXE (MS Windows CE Versions) which is provided as part the base system. FTPDCE is the Internet File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server process. The server can be invoked from an application or command line. Besides servicing FTP client requests the FTP Server also send a “network announcement” to notify prospective clients of server availability.
Chapter 7 — Programming S -Rdir Sets the FTP mount point to this directory. Default is the rootdirectory of the drive from which the FTP Server program was executed. S -Tscript Sets the script name for the 6920 Communications Server to process. S -Uurl Sets the default URL for this device. S -Z“parms” Sets extended parameters to be included in the network announcement.
Chapter 7 — Programming DeviceName This parameter forces the Intermec FTP Server to include the specified device name in the Intermec Device Network Announcement (IDNA). Adjusting this value may be useful in assigning a symbolic name to this device for asset tracking. Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP Value Type REG_SZ Valid Range None. Default None. DeviceURL This parameter forces the Intermec FTP Server to transmit the specified URL in the IDNA.
Chapter 7 — Programming IDNATarget This parameter forces the Intermec FTP Server to transmit the IDNA to a specific destination instead of a general UDP broadcast. This parameter is useful on networks that do not allow UDP broadcasts to be routed between subnets. The use of this parameter will restrict the reception of the IDNA to the target destination only. Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP Value Type REG_SZ Valid Range None. Default None.
Chapter 7 — Programming PauseAtStartup This parameter forces the Intermec FTP Server to sleep for the specified number of seconds before making the FTP service available on the device. Key HKLM\Software\Intermec\IFTP Value Type REG_DWORD - stored in seconds. Valid Range None. Default 0 Root This parameter forces the Intermec FTP Server to set the root of the FTP mount point to the specified value. Note that this must map to an existing directory or you will not be able to log into the FTP Server.
Chapter 7 — Programming Transferring Files Over TCP/IP Networks The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server transfers files over TCP/IP networks.

C Bar Codes This appendix contains a brief explanation of some of the bar code symbologies that the 700 Series Color (700C) Mobile Computer decodes and explains some of the general characteristics and uses of these bar code types. It also includes several bar code labels that can be scanned into your 700 Series Computer.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Bar Code Symbologies Specific bar code algorithms can be enabled using the setup menus or the host computer. Once the computer correctly decodes a bar code, the computer encodes data with descriptive information about the symbol. Response time is improved by limiting the computer to the bar codes being used.
Appendix C — Bar Codes The 700 Series Computer recognizes eleven of the most widely used bar code symbologies. With bar code symbologies, like languages, there are many different types. A bar code symbology provides the required flexibility for a particular inventory tracking system. A symbology may be for particular industries, such as food and beverage, automotive, railroad, or aircraft.
Appendix C — Bar Codes UPC The UPC (Universal Product Code) is the symbology used throughout the grocery and retail industries. This bar code symbology contains two pieces of numerical information encoded on the bar code, producer identification, and product identification information. The UPC symbol is 12 characters long. The first character of the UPC symbol is a number system character, such as “0” for grocery items and “3” for drug- and health-related items.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Code 11 Code 11 satisfies the requirements for a very high density, discrete numeric bar code. The name Code 11 derives from 11 different data characters that can be represented, in addition to a start or stop character. The character set includes the 10 digits and the dash symbol. Each character is represented by a stand-alone group of three bars and two intervening spaces. Although Code 11 is discrete, it is not self-checking.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Code 93 The introduction of Code 93 provided a higher density alphanumeric symbology designed to supplement Code 39. The set of data characters in Code 93 is identical with that offered with Code 39. Each character consists of nine modules arranged into three bars and three spaces. Code 93 uses 48 of the 56 possible combinations.
Appendix C — Bar Codes UCC/EAN-128 Shipping Container Labeling is a versatile tool that can ease movement of products and information. The Shipping Container Labeling bar code can take any form and usually has meaning only within the company or facility where applied. Because this random data can get mistaken later for an industry standard code format, the UCC and EAN chose a symbology uniquely identified from these other bar codes.
Appendix C — Bar Codes I 2 of 5 (Interleaved) I 2 of 5 (Interleaved 2 of 5 Code) is an all-numeric symbology, widely used for warehouse and heavy industrial applications. Its use has been particularly prevalent in the automobile industry. The I 2 of 5 symbology can be placed on smaller labels than what the standard UPC symbology requires. I 2 of 5 also provides a little more flexibility on the type of material it can print on.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Plessey Plessey finds its origin in the pulse width modulated (PWM) code developed in England. It is widely used for shelf markings in grocery stores. Pulse width modulated codes represent each bit of information by a bar and space pair. A zero bit consists of a narrow bar followed by a wide space, while a one bit consists of a wide bar followed by a narrow space. It is mainly a numeric symbology (0-9) with six extra characters available for assigning any symbol or letter desired.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Bar Code Labels You can change some settings on your 700 Series Computer by scanning the following Code 39 bar code labels. S You can use the Unit Manager application to set the Automatic Shutoff, Volume, Backlight Timer, or Key Clicks parameters (starting on page 352). S You can use the Unit Manager application or the Data Collection control panel to set the three Virtual Wedge parameters (starting on page 325).
Appendix C — Bar Codes Automatic Shutoff Note: The Automatic Shutoff parameter information is on page 355. Set Automatic Shutoff to 1 minute *$+EZ1* *$+EZ1* Set Automatic Shutoff to 2 minutes *$+EZ2* *$+EZ2* Set Automatic Shutoff to 3 minutes (default) *$+EZ3* *$+EZ3* Set Automatic Shutoff to 4 minutes *$+EZ4* *$+EZ4* Set Automatic Shutoff to 5 minutes *$+EZ5* *$+EZ5* Backlight Timeout Note: The Backlight Timeout parameter information is on page 353.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Backlight Timeout 2 minutes *$+DF120* *$+DF120* Backlight Timeout 3 minutes *$+DF180* *$+DF180* Backlight Timeout 4 minutes *$+DF240* *$+DF240* Backlight Timeout 5 minutes *$+DF300* *$+DF300* Key Clicks Note: The Key Clicks parameter information is on page 354.
Appendix C — Bar Codes Virtual Wedge Grid, Preamble, Postamble The following parameters are user-configurable strings. Refer to a full ASCII chart for more information. Grid For Virtual Wedge Grid, the first part of the bar code would be the following, which can include a string of up to 240 characters. Parameter information starts on page 328.
