Intermec CK30

Chapter 2 — Configuring the CK30
42 CK30 Handheld Computer User’s Manual
Configuring the CK30 Through the Network
You can change the configuration parameters of the CK30 by
sending commands through a host computer or through the
network. If you are using a network, you can configure one or
more CK30s at a time. You can remotely configure the wireless
CK30 by sending a command from an application on the host
computer. You cannot set all parameters through the network.
You can only set those commands that have a syntax in the
Intermec Computer Command Reference Manual.
Note: You can continue running an application on the CK30
while configuring it from the host.
Configuring the CK30 in a UDP Plus Network
You can use the host computer to configure a CK30 in your
wireless network. To send and receive configuration data or files,
you need to write a host application that can communicate with
the Intermec Application Server.
For help, see the appropriate Intermec Application Server user’s
manual. You use the Terminal Message Format (TMF) protocol
to send and receive transactions between the host application
and the CK30.
To set up the Intermec Application Server
• Configure a peer-to-peer destination name for the host
application. Create a transaction ID, $NGCFGRSP, that will
be routed to this destination name. The Intermec Application
Server uses the transaction ID to route responses from the
CK30 back to the host application. $NGCFGRSP is a special
transaction ID that the server uses to forward configuration
response data from a CK30.
All configuration responses are routed with the
$NGCFGRSP transaction ID. The Intermec Application
Server cannot keep track of multiple applications sending
reader or configuration commands. If you have two host
applications sending reader or configuration commands, they
must both be configured to receive the $NGCFGRSP
transactions, and therefore both will receive all responses from
all CK30s.
