Intermec Configuring the CK30 Through the Network, Configuring the CK30 in a UDP Plus Network

Chapter 2 — Configuring the CK30

When you scan bar code configuration commands, the CK30 emits a series of beeps unless the volume is turned off. There are two beep sequences:

•One high beep means you scanned a valid configuration command.

•Three low beeps means you scanned an invalid configuration command.

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 or Ethernet 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 CK30 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 or Ethernet network. To send and receive configuration data or files, you need to write a host application that can communicate with the Intermec Gateway or DCS 30X.

For help, see the appropriate Intermec Gateway or DCS 30X 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 DCS 30X or Intermec Gateway

•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 DCS 30X or Intermec Gateway 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.
