Using the SDK to Develop Applications
The 5020 SDK provides a functional subset of JANUS and TRAKKER Antares PSK
functions. Functionality available with Windows CE development tools is not
duplicated with the 5020 SDK. The 5020 SDK, sample code, and examples are provided
on the 5020 Software Developer’s Kit and Support Files CD-ROM that ships with this
manual. The 5020 SDK provides
•
the necessary development targets for Visual Studio.
•
the Library and Header files required to use the SDK functionality.
•
bar code scanning emulation environment.
Note: Additional information about using the Intermec SDK, SDK functions, and
components (FileCopy, FileServer, and ADC Simulator) is provided in the Intermec
SDK online help. The online help is provided with the SDK software, which ships on
the 5020 CD-ROM.
Key features of the 5020 SDK are
•
SDK functions, which are available as COM interfaces, DLL interfaces, and as
ActiveX Controls. The COM and DLL interfaces are used when developing Visual
C++ applications. The ActiveX Controls can be used when developing Visual C++
and Visual Basic applications.
•
Automatic Data Collection (ADC) Simulator. The ADC Simulator simulates the
operation of the 5020 bar code scan engine in a Windows environment. You can use
the ADC simulator to send bar code data to an application that you are developing
to run on the 5020 PC.
•
The FileServer utility. Use the FileServer utility on a host PC to receive messages
from 5020 devices through the serial port (RS-232 connection) or a TCP/IP port.
•
The FileCopy utility. Use the FileCopy utility to download or upload files or
applications between a desktop computer and a 5020 using a serial link.
