Copy FTA.EXE and FTA.INI from the Application companion disk 3 to the
reader’s drive C. For help adding new files to drive C, see “Adding or
Editing Files on Drive C” in Chapter 3.
Run a BFT-ready PSK application on the reader so that when the host
computer requests that the reader prepare for reboot, the reader can
respond correctly. The PSK application must be programmed to expect the
Prepare for Reboot command. For help, see “Prepare for Reboot” in
Chapter 11 and your JANUS PSK reference manual.
Differentiating Between Client and Server
BFT is a client/server application, and you must decide which device (host
computer or reader) is to be the client or server. The difference between client
and server is a simple one: the client is the device from which you enter all
commands. In this example, the host computer is the client:
Client
Server

The way you start the FTA on the reader determines whether the reader will be
the client or server.
To make the reader the client
1. Type this command at the reader’s DOS prompt to start the FTA:
fta
2. Type this command at the FTA prompt to open a BFT session:
open
3. From the reader, type the commands to transfer binary files or update the
reader’s drive C.
