EXE program on companion disk 3 to make the reader sound each signal listed in the table above. EXE file from Application companion disk 3 to a drive on the reader. You use serial communications through a COM port, which means that data is transmitted one bit at a time over a single line from one computer to another. Caution The lithium battery can only be replaced by a trained Intermec service technician.

Opening the unit will void the warranty and may cause damage to the internal components. Always keep a charged battery pack in the reader to preserve the life of the lithium battery. When you remove a battery pack, insert another charged battery pack in the reader. Caution Removing the battery pack while the reader is on may cause loss of data. To display the current power status, type this Drive C is upgradeable, has limited write capability, and uses the file allocation table FAT type format.

You can use memory cards to store applications or data files. Page What Software Is Provided With The Reader Learning About the Software This chapter describes how to use and manage the software that comes with the JANUS reader, how to change files on drive C, how to create programs for the reader, how to make more conventional memory available for the software you run on the reader, and how to upgrade the reader.

EXE on your PC. Also, do not run any. EXE and a. KTB file. Only an authorized Intermec service technician should use these files to load the keypad scan code table. BAT loads programs and defines paths. SYS loads device drivers and reserves memory for processing information. The commands in the startup files execute when you warm boot or cold boot the reader. Page Config. SYS startup files, as well as software for the PC card drive. You can use the remaining space on drive C to store applications and data files.

Add or edit files on drive C without deleting all existing files. At the DOS prompt on the host computer, type this command: source:install [-port] where: source is the disk drive where you inserted companion disk 1. Because PutImage requires an external power supply, Auto-Loader also requires an external power supply. Copy all the files you want to add or edit to your working directory. If you want to edit files that are on drive C, including the startup files, you can use Interlnk to copy files to your working directory on the host computer.

To replace all the files on drive C Note: All the files on drive C will be overwritten. Auto-Loader runs Intersvr on the host computer. When you see the Interlnk Server Status screen on the host computer, press warm boot the reader and load Interlnk into memory.

Page 4. If you want to copy files from drive C, you may need to use Interlnk to copy files. If you need the conventional memory to run other applications, press reader. Page 5. Connect the reader to the host computer through a communications dock or optical link adapter. Be sure to back up any files you want to keep before you continue.

For example, to copy the C-ATA. Also, this example assumes that the host computer and reader can share a PC card. Page Example 3 Example 3 In this example, you create the image file on the host computer, use Interlnk to make the image file appear as if it were on the reader, and use PutImage to load the image file to drive C. You create, read, write, and delete files on a RAM drive the same way you can on a hard disk drive.

Intermec recommends that you adhere to a K limit. Although many applications can be written with standard language functions, you can create applications using C or Basic that incorporate PSK library functions and Intermec-specific system software interrupts.

Page Loading A Configuration File Whenever You Boot nugget nugget If the configuration file contains errors, the reader displays a message stating that the reader configuration is unchanged.

The reader generates an error file with the same filename as the configuration file, but with the extension. This file lists the line numbers with the incorrect syntax and the reason for the error. BAT onto drive C. Or copy the configuration file onto a memory card in one of the PC card drives. BAT file to drive F and expect the reader to boot from For example, you can connect your JANUS directly to another reader or computer, enabling both computers to share files, data, and programs.

Page Communications dock hardwired to CrossBar controller You can make the JANUS an end device in your local area network or distributed data collection system. The reader is often used as a downline data collection computer connected to powerful upline systems. Host computer Base Radio Unit By default. Instead, IRL uses the logical port numbers to direct transmits and receives. The scanner port is a modular connector on the top of the reader. Page Planning The Network Connection nugget helconital Planning the Network Connection In most networking and data communications situations, the JANUS reader uses a communications application, communications protocol, and protocol handler to communicate with another computer device.

What is a communications application? A communications application is a software program that lets the reader communicate with another computer device. Loads the Intermec protocol handler for COM1. If the Intermec protocol handler is already loaded, an error is returned and the variable is not set. Page Connecting The Reader To Another Device You can physically connect the reader to another device using one of the three methods described next.

The reader communicates through radio signals instead of a physical connection. Page Running Interlnk To Transfer Files nugget helconital Running Interlnk to Transfer Files With Interlnk, you can easily transfer files between your reader and a host computer or another reader.

You can also make all the drives on one computer appear as if they are physically located on the other, so that you have unrestricted access to the contents of all the drives. Page Example Of Using Interlnk Sometimes your reader will be the client, and sometimes it will be the server, depending upon the task you are trying to accomplish.

Intermec suggests that you always make the host computer the client because Interlnk requires more conventional memory than Intersvr and your host computer probably has more conventional memory available than your JANUS reader.

Connect the reader to the host computer using a 7-wire, null-modem serial cable and either the communications dock or optical link adapter. Make sure that the MODE command is available on the host computer.

If you use the communications dock, you must connect the dock to the host computer with a 3-wire 2, 3, and 7 cable for Interlnk to operate properly. Caution Do not press any keys while the reader is performing a warm boot or you may lose data.

As a result, the question of cytotoxic drug handling in those patients in terms of dosage adjustment and time of administration regarding the dialysis sessions needs to be addressed to optimize cytotoxic drug therapy in those patients. Methods: We reviewed the international literature on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, tolerance and dosage adjustment of cytotoxic drugs used to treat solid tumor patients and when available, specific literature on HD cancer patients.

Results: From these data, dosing recommendations are given for the most prescribed cytotoxic drugs in clinical practice.
