Chapter 3 — Develop and Install RFID Applications
IF1 Fixed RFID Reader User Manual 41
where:
AUTOSTART specifies whether the application automatically starts
when the reader boots.
RUNAFTERINSTALL specifies whether the application starts
immediately after installation.
CMDLINE specifies the application name and optional parameters it
accepts. Specify command line parameters as if the application is
being executed from inside the directory containing the application.
2 Save the configuration file with the name userapp.conf.
Configuration File Example
This example auto-starts an application when the reader boots and runs
an application named testapp.exe:
AUTOSTART=true
RUNAFTERINSTALL=false
CMDLINE=./testapp.exe
Archive the Installation Files
To install an RFID application on the reader, you need to package the
configuration file and application.
1 Create a configuration file named userapp.conf.
2 Package the userapp.conf file and your application into one of these
formats: .zip, .tar/bz2, or .tar/gz file. Your application can now be
installed on the reader.
How Install RFID Applications
There are two ways to install your RFID application:
• Run the application on a remote server through TCP port 2189. All
processing is performed by the server.
• Run the application locally on the reader. The application resides on
the reader, and much of the processing occurs on the reader.
Note: The reader executes applications from their installation directories,
so the userapp.conf file does not need to include path information.
