See the Norand Utilities paragraph in Section 5 for a description of calling

Norand Utilities from an application, to perform data communications.
The following paragraphs describe the use of Norand Utilities for Initial Program

Load.

Most of the communication options for performing an initial program load

require a download include file to be used on a host computer.
First, to create a download include file, create a download list file.
You create a download list file, as follows:
A download list file contains the names of the files to be sent to the HHC.  Each

line in the file specifies one name.  The file names may include path information

so that all the files need not be in the same directory on the host.  However, the

file is transmitted to the HHC without the source path information and placed in

the current directory of the HHC.
To specify a destination path on the HHC or to rename a file, use a line of the

“newname=oldname” 

format.  This causes the file 

oldname

" to be read from the

PC and transmitted to the HHC with the name 

newname.

"  Both 

oldname

" and



newname

" may include path information.

The following is a sample download list file (6200 Computer):

CONFIG.SYS
ROMINIT.BAT
6X00DOS\PC4800.SYS
6200DOS\FONTMAP.EXE
6200DOS\GR12X22.FNT
MYAPP.EXE

The following filenames cannot be used in a download list file because they are

used by Norand Utilities to perform communications:

NRTLOG.DAT
NRUPLD.CTL
PSROM0C.DAT
PSROM0C.INI

Execute the following command to create the download include file:

IPLFMT.EXE <list file> <include file>

where:

<list file> 

is the name of the download list file created, above.

<include  file> 

is the name of the download include file.  The Norand

Utilities program specifically requests a file named <workgroup>.INC, where

<workgroup>.INC is the value of the WORKGROUP field in the UNIT ID menu.

For the 6200 Computer, the default for this field is 6200IPL; for the 6300

Computer, the default is 6300IPL.  This file is created by IPLFMT.EXE.
Please note that IPLFMT.EXE can be found in the toolkit.
IPLFMT.EXE concatenates files listed in the list file, inserting appropriate

Intermec file headers for download.  See TCOM Session Overview in Section 5 for

a description of file headers.
