Application Development

This chapter describes the system architecture used in the TRAKKER 2090 and
provides basic information about developing applications using the Intermec-supplied
library of functions.
System Architecture
The TRAKKER T2090 hardware system has been designed with three factors in
mind:
•
Maintain a high degree of DOS compatibility.
•
Allow application designers as much flexibility as possible in system
configuration and application design.
•
Provide simple boot-up capability even if user programs cause a temporary
system lockup.
At the lowest level of the system is an enhanced 80186 BIOS. This provides the
hardware/software interface for all operating system functions. The BIOS has
been adapted to support unique screen, keyboard, and communications
features of the T2090. In all cases, the link to higher level code is made through
software interrupts, thereby eliminating restrictions upon code development
languages.
At the BIOS level, through extensions, a device driver is incorporated for
creation of the user’s drive C within the FLASH chips. Incorporation of the
driver at this level ensures that DOS, when booted, can recognize the drive and,
if desired, utilize system files from this drive for booting. As an additional
extension, we have provided a fail-safe mechanism for boot protection.
Memory
Like other PCs, the TRAKKER T2090 has only 1MB, (1,048,576 bytes) of real
addressable space. Above this limit, all memory must be paged into some
other address. In the T2090, the lower 640K RAM is available to DOS, less the
system drivers loaded prior to DOS boot. The remainder of the real address
space is used for the mapping of EMS (extended memory system) RAM,
FLASH drives and the BIOS.
The following table summarizes the availability of addressable memory.
