Performing a Terminal-to-Terminal Application Upload

If you have one Omni 3200 terminal with a complete and up-to-date

application program, you can conveniently transfer this application to

one or more Omni 3200 terminals. The procedure is also fast, as the

serial data transfer rate between the sending and receiving terminal is

19200 baud. The only hardware you need is a cable.

Note: A description of how to set up the cable connection between

the sending and receiving terminal is described above in, “Cable

Connection for Terminal-to-Terminal Uploads.” See Figure 18.

The method of uploading an application from one terminal to another,

as described in Table 22 below, is useful

• When a download computer is not available, and

• When you wish to perform a ‘special’ full application download,

as described below.

‘Special’ Full Application Uploads

There is a major difference between the result of this method of

transferring an application to another terminal and a full application

download using other methods: Namely, it replaces all records —

protected and non-protected — in the receiving terminal. It does not,

however, replace the existing bootloader or operating system version.

You would, for example, use this method if you want to duplicate the

current application software and settings of the sending terminal in

one or more receiving terminals. This means that when the upload is

completed, the receiving terminal has the same application program,

as well as duplicate CONFIG.SYS settings, the identical date and

time setting, and the same System Password.
