Example 3 
Connect the TD2400 communications dock to a serial port on the 2485. 
Use a 2420 to collect data. Use the TD2400 communications dock to 
upload data from the 2420 to the 2485. Data is transmitted to the 2485 
and out the Ethernet or RF port to the connected network devices. 
Example 4 
Use the 248X as a gateway between the CrossBar network and the 
Ethernet or RF network. Connect the 248X as a downline device in your 
CrossBar network. Connect the 2480/1 with the Ethernet option to your 
Ethernet network, or connect the 2485/6 to your RF network. While 
running the APPTSK.BIN or EM9560.BIN application, you can send 
data from the Ethernet or RF network through the 248X to the 9154 or 
9161 and vice versa. 
Example 5 
Connect the COM1 serial port to the COM2 serial port on a 246X or 
248X terminal. Use the terminal to configure itself by typing and entering 
configuration commands on the keypad or keyboard. 
Example 6 
Connect the serial port on the 248X to the serial port on the 246X 
terminal. Use the 248X to configure the 246X by typing and entering 
configuration commands on the 248X keypad.  
Using DOS on the Terminal 
With the DOS option, the Trakker Antares terminals can run ROM-
DOS
™, which is compatible with DOS version 6.22. ROM-DOS 
provides application compatibility at the DOS level and interface 
compatibility at the BIOS level.  
On each DOS drive, filenames are customer defined using eight characters 
with a three-character extension. You cannot define any subdirectories.
