NF BC Networking the Reader<br />

Downloading Applications Across the Network<br />

6<br />

You can use binary file transfer (BFT) to download applications to <strong>JANUS</strong><br />

readers in 900 MHz RF and CrossBar networks. BFT can perform these tasks<br />

with or without assistance from the person operating the reader:<br />

• Interrupt any PSK application, reboot the reader, and start the file transfer<br />

application (FTA) on the reader.<br />

• Transfer binary files (for example, an application) with error detection.<br />

• Change the contents of the reader’s drive C by loading a new image file.<br />

• Run any program on the reader when the transfer or update is complete.<br />

Note: The BFT functionality is provided by the file transfer application (FTA.EXE),<br />

which is stored on the Application companion disk 3.<br />

Examples of Using BFT<br />

The next two examples illustrate how you can use BFT to update applications<br />

on networked <strong>JANUS</strong> readers by transferring new binary files to the readers.<br />
