USER'S GUIDE Portable Data Terminals PT2000 and TopGun

Transferring Data With PSC Utilities
84 PT2000™ & TopGun™
s performs the transfer “silently” (without displaying received
data on the screen).
h displays help on program usage and options.
For example: updtfer /dev/tty2a readin.dat -r would receive
data from a portable connected to a serial port named /dev/tty2a and
place data in a file named
readin.dat.
The
UPDTFER program has the following settings. The portable's
communications settings must match.
Baud rate: 9600
Stop bits: 1
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Flow control: ACK/NAK; no XON/XOFF
The UPDTFER program returns an exit status of 0 if the transfer is
successful. If the transfer is unsuccessful, it returns a nonzero status, such
as 1.
