Appendix C – SDK Sample programs

Sample programs are provided with the SDK. The purpose of the

sample programs is to show how a complete working client server

application can be built using the SDK NCL API with the client

program.

The sample programs demonstrate how to write a simple application

that allows a wireless client to send data to a central server application

and receive responses back from the central server application. The

sample programs are not intended to be a functional application, but are

intended to serve as a guide to writing applications and can be used as a

basis for developing more complex applications.

The information given in this section is intended to supplement the

source code for the applications by providing a high-level overview of

the source code.

The client application is called ModemInfo and uses the NCL API to

interface to the DataTAC

network. The sample client program

retrieves the modem’s current status, and enables the user to send and

receive messages on the current channel the device is registered to.

The Settings tab displays the modems current profile (i.e. Channel list,

RD-LAP version, etc), whether the modem is on or off, the modems

power save mode, and (if supported), its vibrator mode.
