This is done to ensure that data is protected. Although the battery does protect the data against loss for several hours, you should connect your computer to a power source when you first detect a low battery condition. Your computer contains an internal super capacitor, a temporary power storage device, that protects data for up to ten minutes. This is to give you time to replace the main battery pack before that data is lost. Be sure to put the computer in a suspend mode before doing so. If you have at least one device in your 700 Series Computer (radio, scanner, imager, or Ethernet), the battery power fail level is set so that after the system shuts down in a low battery condition, there is still sufficient charge to allow the unit to remain configured, keep proper time, and maintain DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for at least 23 to 32 hours at room temperature if the main battery remains in the mobile computer. The configuration and time are lost if: S The battery discharges beyond this level. S The battery is removed when the computer is not in suspend mode. S A cold reset is performed on the computer. You can modify RAM maintenance in a limited way. On the 700 Computer, tap Start > Settings > the System tab > the Power icon > the Battery tab. Drag the slider bar to the right to change the suspend voltage to favor suspend time over rundown time, then click ok to exit. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 1 — Introduction Beeper Note: Each time the 700 Computer is cold-booted, all default settings are restored.

Synchronization compares the data on your 700 Color Computer with your desktop and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example: S Keep Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your 700 Color Computer with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop. S Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your 700 Color Computer and desktop. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format Note: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types. With ActiveSync, you can also: S Back up and restore your 700 Color Computer data. S Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your 700 Color Computer and desktop. S Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while connected to your desktop or only when you choose the synchronize command. S Select which information types are synchronized and control how much data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized. Before you begin synchronization, install ActiveSync on your desktop from the Windows Mobile Companion CD. For more information on installing ActiveSync, see your Quick Start card. ActiveSync is already installed on your 700 Color Computer. After installation is complete, the ActiveSync Setup Wizard helps you connect your 700 Color Computer to your desktop, set up a partnership so you can synchronize information between your 700 Color Computer and your desktop, and customize your synchronization settings. Your first synchronization process automatically begins when finished using the wizard. After your first synchronization, look at Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on your 700 Color Computer. Notice that information you have stored in Microsoft Outlook on your desktop was copied to your 700 Color Computer, and you did not have to type a word. Disconnect the 700 Color Computer from your computer and you are ready to go! 44 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 2003 Once you have set up ActiveSync and completed the first synchronization process, you can initiate synchronization from your 700 Color Computer.

For more information, see “Synchronizing E-mail Messages” below. When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to connect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet card to connect to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connected. You can also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line connection. For more information, see “Connecting to a Mail Server” on page 75. Synchronizing E-mail Messages After selecting Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. During synchronization: S Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your 700 Color Computer. (Note that you can only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. S Messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to Exchange or Outlook and then sent from those programs. S The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a message on your 700 Color Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the next time you synchronize. S Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchronized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or select Start > Help > Connections to see Connections Help. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 73 Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 2003 Managing E-mail Messages and Folders Each e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that were deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the Inbox options you have chosen. The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4. S If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook automatically synchronize with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your desktop. S If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder. S If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the 700 Color Computer. S If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your 700 Color Computer or desktop. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename or delete folders when connected. For all accounts except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tapping Tools > Manage Folders. 74 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 2 — Windows Mobile 2003 Connecting to a Mail Server In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop, you can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a modem or network card connected to your 700 Color Computer. You need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail server. For more information, see “Getting Connected” on page 98. When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder, messages in the 700 Color Computer Outbox folder are sent, and messages that were deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the 700 Color Computer Inbox folder. Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your e-mail server rather than your desktop. When you delete a message on your 700 Color Computer, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you connect based on the settings selected in ActiveSync. You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your 700 Color Computer. When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then decide which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you have marked for retrieval and sends the messages you have composed.

S It could be a directory structure that contains the application, supporting files like ActiveX controls, DLLs, images, sound files, and data files. S Or, you could package an application via a CAB file. Consider any of the following when choosing a location into which to store your application: S In the basic 700 Color Computer, there are two built-in storage options: the Object Store and the Persistent Storage Manager (PSM). The Object Store is RAM that looks like a disk. Anything copied here is deleted when a cold-boot is performed on the 700 Color Computer. The PSM is an area of storage which is embedded in a section of the system’s FLASH memory. This storage area is not erased during a cold-boot. It may, however, be erased during the reflashing process. In addition to storing applications and data files, you do have the option to store a persistent registry to the PSM region. S If the optional Secure Digital or CompactFlash storage card is in the system, then consider this card the primary location for placing an applications install files. The following folders represent either card: S The Secure Digital storage card creates the “\SDMMC Disk” folder. S The CompactFlash storage card creates the “\Storage Card” folder. Note: The 730 Mobile Computer does not support the Compact Flash storage card. S Use the small non-volatile Flash File Store region to hold CAB files that rebuild the system at cold-boot or install applications from a CAB file into the Flash File Store so they are ”ready-to-run” when a cold-boot is performed. Since the FLASH in the system has a limited number of write cycles, do not use the Flash File Store for excessive writing purposes; however, reading is okay. Files copied to any of these locations are safe when a cold-boot is performed on a 700 Color Computer — providing the AutoRun system is installed in the appropriate location You can find this system in the 700 Color Management Tools portion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD. Copying a CAB file to the “\CABFILES” folder on one of these cards automatically extracts that CAB file on every cold-boot to ensure that your system is properly set up (see page 128). 122 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 3 — Installing Applications Installing Applications Consider any of the following options to get the package to the preferred location on your 700 Series Computer. S Microsoft ActiveSync S FTP Server (page 124) S Secure Digital or CompactFlash storage cards (page 124) Using Microsoft ActiveSync Note: These instructions assume the 700 Color Management Tools portion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD was installed on your desktop. The Microsoft ActiveSync tool is located on the 700 Color Companion CD. See Chapter 2, “Windows Mobile 2003,” for information about this tool as provided by Microsoft Corporation. This can be a serial, USB, Ethernet, InfraRed, or 802.11b ActiveSync connection. Files can be copied using File Explorer on a desktop or a laptop computer. This is usually good when updating few 700 Color Computers. Note: The 730 Computer does not support Ethernet. These instructions assume that Microsoft ActiveSync was installed onto your desktop and is up and running. If not, go to Chapter 2, “Windows Mobile 2003,” for an URL from which to download the latest application. 1 Connect your 700 Color Computer to your desktop computer via an ActiveSync cable or IrDA. 2 Wait for a “Connected” message to appear in the Microsoft ActiveSync application to signal a connection to the 700 Series Computer.

Below are a few exceptions: S The 700 Monochrome Computer uses the “\Storage Card” folder for nonvolatile storage. You may need to change the application to store data onto the “SDMMC Disk” folder instead of the “\Storage Card” folder if a Secure Digital storage card is present in the system. S If the application uses the RegFlushKey() API, it must first verify that the proper media is available in the system and call the special API mentioned in Step 7 on the previous page. S If the application is using the 700 Color switchable dock, use the IOCTL_DOCK_SWITCH value from the IOCTL_HAL_ITC_WRITE_SYSPARM function to set the proper port on the dock before communications. See more information about this KernelIOControl function in Chapter 7, “Programming.” S Some WAN radio options have changed. Review the WAN radio information in Chapter 4, “Network Support,“to determine if any changes are required in your application. S Arrow and tab keys are reversed from the 700 Monochrome Computer. Keyboard remapping is available on the 700 Color Computer should you need to map these keys like that of the 700 Monochrome Computer (see page 125). S Special SDKs are not needed to compile applications for the Xscale processor. Targeting the SA1110 processor creates applications that run on the 700 Color Computer. Cabinet File Installation CAB files (short form of “cabinet” files) are compressed folders as defined by Microsoft. A “cabinet” file is a single file, usually suffixed with .CAB, that stores compressed files in a file library. A compressed file can be spread over several cabinet files. During installation, the setup application decompresses the files stored in a cabinet and copies them to the user’s system. For the 700 Color Computer, CAB files register DLLs, create shortcuts, modify registry entries, and run custom setup programs. Tap a CAB file to extract that file or place the CAB file on one of the approved storage devices in the “\CabFiles” folder, then perform a warm-boot on the 700 Color Computer. There are two methods available to extract a CAB file: S Tap a CAB file to extract it. With this method, the CAB file is automatically deleted when the extraction process is successful, unless the CAB file is set with the read-only attribute. S Use the AUTOCAB method to extract all files when a cold-boot is performed on the 700 Color Computer. This method is on the Intermec Developer’s Library CD, see its Software Tools User’s Manual for information. 128 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 4 Network Support The 700 Series Color Mobile Computer can integrate up to three radios in a single unit, and automatically installs the appropriate software for radio use when the unit is powered on.

SB555 Watcher is for activation and data provisioning. Once you enable voice capability, data capability, or both depending on the carrier, remove this program from the system by cold-booting your computer. Intermec Technologies does not recommend using the SB555 Watcher program to make data and voice calls on a daily basis for these reasons: S The SB555 Watcher application is a third-party application unaware of certain power management methods used in your 760 Computer. Therefore, the application consumes more power than necessary. S The application size consumes memory better used for your application data. The process of setting up the account with your carrier and enabling the CDMA WAN radio in your 760 Computer is called activation. The CDMA radio is pre-programmed for a specific carrier, such as Sprint, Telus, Bell Mobility, Verizon, etc.). Therefore, information about your radio should already be in your carrier’s database. You need to notify the carrier and set up mobile accounts for each unit you are activating. The Electronic Serial Number (ESN hex 63xxxxxx) that you need to supply to your carrier is located in two places: S On the outside of the 760 Computer shipping box. S On the inside of the 760 Computer battery compartment. The ESN comes in both decimal and hexadecimal formats. Most carriers accept either format, but with a preference for the decimal format. You only need to provide one number to your carrier. S The decimal format consists of 11 digits, beginning with “099.” S The hexadecimal format is an 8-digit number, beginning with “63.” Accounts for Verizon and Sprint carriers can be set up for data only. Canadian carriers (Telus and Bell Mobility) can be set for data only, voice only, or both voice and data. This is determined by your application and the services your carrier offers. After the all ESNs are provided to the carrier and the carrier has established the accounts, you will be provided with the lock codes and telephone numbers needed to complete the activation process. You use the SB555 Watcher program to accomplish this task. Be sure to write down this information for future use. Note: Ensure that you receive a spreadsheet with your order that calls out all ESNs in both decimal and hexadecimal formats. 144 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 4 — Network Support Note: Not all of the elements listed are required by all service providers.

To remain compatible with other versions of Pocket PC, this setting needs to be enabled. You can configure the registry settings in the following to set the required AutoIP/DHCP behavior: S For Ethernet: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\LAN9001\TcpIp S Fot 802.11b: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\NETWLAN1\TcpIp Other registry keys that can modify the behavior of AutoIP are as follows. You can find the appropriate settings and behavior of each of these keys in Microsoft Help. S AutoInterval S AutoMask S AutoSubnet S AutoIP S AutoSeed When a TCP/IP client cannot find a DHCP server, it generates an AutoIP address from the 169.254.xxx.xxx block. The client then tries to check for a DHCP server every 300 seconds (5 minutes) and if a DHCP server is found, the client drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the DHCP server. In the MSDN Windows CE documentation available out on the Microsoft Developer Network web site (http://www.msdn.com), see “Automatic Client Configuration” for more information on AutoIP. To disable AutoIP, set the AutoCfg registry entry to “0.” If a DHCP server cannot be found, instead of using AutoIP, the system will display the “Unable to obtain a server assigned IP address” message. Note: If AutoIP is defined using CAB files, the EnableDHCP registry key must also be defined and set to “1” before the system will attempt to obtain a DHCP address. Note: To extend the number of attempts that a DHCP client makes to get a DHCP address, use the DhcpRetryDialogue and DhcpMaxRetry registry settings. Note: Change the AutoInterval registry key value to make the client retry more often to obtain a DHCP address. 190 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 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. The 700 Series Computer supports four proprietary Management Information Bases (MIBs) and Intermec Technologies provides SNMP support for MIB-II through seven read-only MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB) Object Identifiers (OIDs). Note: You can only query these seven OIDs through an SNMP management station. Management Information Base The Management Information Base is a database that contains information about the elements to be managed. The information identifies the management element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, ReadWrite). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a machine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to be managed are represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such objects. You will find the following MIB files either in the 700 Color Management Tools portion of the Intermec Developer’s Library CD or on the web via http://www.intermec.com: S INTERMEC.MIB Defines the root of the Intermec MIB tree. S ITCADC.MIB Defines objects for Automated Data Collection (ADC), such as bar code symbologies. S ITCSNMP.MIB Defines objects for Intermec SNMP parameters and security methods, such as an SNMP security IP address. S ITCTERMINAL.MIB Defines objects for 700 Series parameters, such as key clicks. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 191 Chapter 4 — Network Support Object Identifiers Each object has a unique identifier called an OID, which consist of a sequence of integer values represented in dot notation. Objects are stored in a tree structure and OIDs are assigned based on the position of the object in the tree. For example, the internet OID is equal to 1.3.6.1. Seven MIB OIDs are shown in the following table: MIB Object Identifiers MIB-II Item OID Group or Table Description ifNumber 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1.0 Interfaces Group Indicates the number of adapters present in the system. For the 700 Series Computer, if one adapter is present in the system, then ifNumber = 1 and ifIndex = 1. ifIndex 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) A unique value for each interface. The value ranges between 1 and the value of ifNumber. ifDescr 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) A textual string containing information about the interface. ifType 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3.ifIndex Interfaces Table (ifTable) An integer containing information about the type of the interface. It is equal to 1 for Other. ipAdEntAddr 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.1.IpAddress IP address Table (ipAddrTable) The IP address to which this entry’s addressing information pertains (same as 700 IP address), where IP Address is the valid non-zero IP address of the 700 Series Computer. ipAdEntIfIndex 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.2.IpAddress IP address Table (ipAddrTable) The index value that uniquely identifies the interface to which this entry is applicable (same as ifIndex). ipAdEntNetMask 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.3.IpAddress IP address Table (ipAddrTable) The subnet mask associated with the IP address of this entry (same as Subnet Mask). Configuring with SNMP The community string allows an SNMP manager to manage the 700 Series Computer with a specified privilege level. The default read-only community string is “public” and “private” is the default read/write community string. See the specific configuration parameter to find its OID. To configure the 700 Series Computers using SNMP: 1 Configure 700 Series Computers for RF or Ethernet communications. 2 Determine the OID (Object Identifier) for the parameter to be changed. The Intermec base OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1963. 3 Use your SNMP management station to get and set variables that are defined in the Intermec MIBs. You can set the traps, identification, or security configuration parameters for SNMP. See Appendix A, “Configurable Settings,” to learn more about these parameters. 192 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 5 Printer Support The 700 Series Color Mobile Computer works with the following printers from Intermec Technologies. Contact an Intermec representative for information about these printers. S 6820 A full-page, 80-column printer. S 6808 A 4-inch belt-mount printer. S PB20 A 2-inch belt-mount printer with a Bluetooth compatible module from Socket Communications. S 782T A 2-inch workboard printer. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 193 Chapter 5 — Printer Support Printing ASCII The following methods for printing using Pocket PC at this time is as follows: S Add port drivers to print ASCII directly to the port. S Use LinePrinter ActiveX Control from the Software Developer’s Kit (SDK) — see the SDK User’s Manual for more information. S Via wireless printing - see the Wireless Printing Development Guide on the Intermec Developer’s Library CD for more information. Directly to a Port Printing directly to the port sends RAW data to the printer. The format of this data depends upon your application and the printer capabilities. You must understand the printer commands available for your specific printer. Generally, applications just send raw ASCII text to the printer. Since you are sending data to the printer from your application directly to the port you are in complete control of the printers operations. This allows you to do line printing (print one line at a time) rather than the page format printing offered by the GDI approach. It is also much faster since data does not have to be converted from one graphics format to the other (display to printer). Most Intermec® printers use Epson Escape Sequences to control print format operations. These commands are available in documentation you receive with your printers or from technical support. Win32 APIs are required to print directly to the port. Directly to a Generic Serial Port To print directly to a generic serial port printer (non-Intermec printers): S Use CreateFile() to open ports - COM1: can be opened on most devices. S Use WriteFile() to send data directly to the printer. S Use CloseHandle() when you are finished printing to close the port. IrDA Printer Driver IrDA printing is only available on the certain devices and is supported directly by the Windows CE load via the IrSock API provided by the Microsoft Win32 API without need for additional drivers. Intermec 6804, 6805, 6806, 6808 and 6820 and other IrDA printers are supported. 194 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 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. Operations to upgrade printer modules, perform printer diagnostics, and get printer configuration are performed largely via DeviceIOControl() functions. About NPCP NPCP (Norand® Portable Communications Protocol) is a proprietary protocol that provides session, network, and datalink services for Intermec mobile computers in the Intermec LAN environment used with printers and data communications. NPCP Driver Installation and Removal Use LPT9: for the NPCP printer device and COM1 for the last parameter. COM1 is the connection available via the 700 Series Computer. Applications use the RegisterDevice() function to install the driver. DeregisterDevice() uninstalls the device driver and frees memory space when the driver is not required. Use the HANDLE returned by RegisterDevice() as the parameter to DeregisterDevice(). Use the RegisterDevice() function call as demonstrated below. Specify the full path name to the driver starting at the root for the RegisterDevice() function to work properly. The last parameter to RegisterDevice() is a DWORD that represents the name of the port for the NPCP stream driver to use. Build this parameter on the stack if it is not to be paged out during the call. The first parameter “LPT” (Device Name) and the second parameter “9’ (index), indicate the name of the registered device, such as LPT9. This is used in the CreateFile() function call. Install() HANDLE hDevice; TCHAR port[6]; port[0] = TCHAR(‘C’); port[1] = TCHAR(‘O’); port[2] = TCHAR(‘M’); port[3] = TCHAR(‘1’); port[4] = TCHAR(‘:’); port[5] = TCHAR(0); hDevice = RegisterDevice ( (TEXT(”LPT”), 9, TEXT(“\\STORAGE CARD\\WINDOWS\\NPCPPORT.dll”), (DWORD)port); 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 195 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. S The NPCP device is already open. S The share mode is not set to zero. The device cannot be shared. S Access permissions are not set to GENERIC_WRITE | GENERIC_READ. Both modes must be specified. Closing the NPCP Driver Using the CloseHandle() (hFile) function closes the NPCP driver. Where hFile is the handle returned by the CreateFile() function call. S TRUE = the device is successfully closed. S FALSE = an attempt to close NULL HANDLE or an already closed device. Reading from the NPCP Driver Reading of the NPCP printers is not supported since all responses from the printer are the result of commands sent to the printer. DeviceIoControl() functions are provided where data is to be received from the printer. Writing to the NPCP Driver All Print data can be sent to the printer using the WriteFile() function. The print data written to the driver must contain the proper printer commands for formatting. If the function returns FALSE, the NPCP error may be retrieved using IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR. See the description on the next page. 196 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 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. The following I/O control codes are defined: #define IOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x400,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_BIND CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x401,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x402,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x403,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x404,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_IOCTL CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x405,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) #define IOCTL_NPCP_PRTVER CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_SERIAL_PORT,0x406,METHOD_BUFFERED,FILE_ANY_ACCESS) S IOCTL_NPCP_CANCEL This cancels all printing at the printer. It flushes the printer buffers and reinitializes the printer to its default state. No parameters are required. S IOCTL_NPCP_BIND This command is required before any data is sent or received by the printer. Once the driver is opened, the application must bind the communications session with the printer before any data can be sent or received by the printer. If an error occurs during the bind, the application may use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the current extended error code. No parameters are required. S IOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE This command closes the current session with the printer. This function always returns TRUE. No parameters are required. S IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR This command returns the extended NPCP error code in PL/N format. The word returned will contain the PL/N compatible error code in the low byte and completion flags in the high byte. If the frame that returned an error was not received correctly by the printer the FRAME_NOT_ACKED bit will be set in the high byte. This operation always returns TRUE. An output buffer of at least 2 bytes is required. See “NPCP Error Codes” on page 199. S IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH This command allows the application to poll the printer for errors while the report is completing the print process at the printer. If an error occurs during the polling process, the operation will return FALSE and the application can get the extended error code by using IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR. No parameters are required. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 197 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. If an error is reported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the error and determine the correct recovery procedure. 4 Use WriteFile(); to write your data to the printer. Check for errors and that all data were written. Use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the extended error. If the error is critical in nature, use IOCTL_NPCP_CLOSE, followed by CloseFile(), to end the communications session. Start a new session, beginning with step 1 to ensure proper printing. For noncritical errors display the error and retry the operation. 5 After all data is sent to the printer, ensure that the printer continues to print the report properly by polling the printer’s status. Use IOCTL_NPCP_FLUSH to poll the printer’s status. If an error is reported by the IOCTL, then use IOCTL_NPCP_ERROR to get the error and determine the correct recovery procedure.

All applications use WIN32 API functions to access drivers. Basic operations are easily implemented by applications through the CreateFile(), WriteFile(), DeviceIOControl() and CloseHandle() Win32 APIs. The driver supports communications to 6804DM, 6804T, 6805A, 6806, 6808, 681T, and PB20 printers over a selected serial port. DTR Driver Installation and Removal Your application must install the device driver by using the RegisterDevice() function. The driver name is ONEIL.DLL. We recommend that you use “DTR” for the Device Name parameter, “1” for the Device Driver index parameter, and use any of the following strings for the last parameter: S NULL (==0) Defaults to COM1 @ 9600 S “COM1” only COM port specified defaults to 9600 S “COM1:9600” sets to COM port and specified bit rate S “COM1:19200” sets to COM port and specified bit rate Use the HANDLE returned by RegisterDevice() as the parameter to DeregisterDevice(). The correct usage of the RegisterDevice() function call is demonstrated below. You may use DeregisterDevice() to uninstall the driver. Install() HANDLE hDevice; TCHAR port[6]; port[0] = TCHAR(‘C’); port[1] = TCHAR(‘O’); port[2] = TCHAR(‘M’); port[3] = TCHAR(‘1’); port[4] = TCHAR(‘:’); port[5] = TCHAR(0); hDevice = RegisterDevice ( (TEXT(”DTR”), 1, TEXT(”\\WINDOWS\\ONEIL.DLL”), (DWORD)port); 200 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual Chapter 5 — Printer Support Opening the DTR Driver The application opens the DTR driver by using the CreateFile() function. The call can be implemented as follows: hFile = CreateFile(_T(”DTR1:”), GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL); The first parameter “DTR1:” must reflect the device name and index used in the RegisterDevice() function call. The function call will fail for any of the following reasons: S The port associated with the device during RegisterDevice() is currently in use. S The DTR device is already open. S The share mode is not set to zero. The device cannot be shared. S Access permissions are not set to GENERIC_WRITE. Closing the DTR Driver Using the CloseHandle() (hFile) function closes the DTR driver. Where hFile is the handle returned by the CreateFile() function call. S TRUE indicates the device is successfully closed. S FALSE indicates an attempt to close a NULL HANDLE or an already closed device. Writing to the DTR Driver You can use the WriteFile() function to send all Print data to the printer. The print data being written must contain the proper formatting printer commands. DTR Printer Communications All DTR printer communications should be based on the following flow: 1 Use CreateFile(); to open the printer driver. 2 Use WriteFile() to write your data to the printer. Check for errors and that all data were written. 3 Use CloseHandle() to close the driver. 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual 201 Chapter 5 — Printer Support 202 700 Series Color Mobile Computer User’s Manual
