8.6.6 FLINK Library
Overview
The FLINK library (FLINK.DLL) is a utility used to perform communication between two IT-2000
terminals or between the terminal and a personal computer via the infrared communication interface
(IrDA). It is a 16-bit dynamic link library (DLL). The FLINK function is called from its external
function.
WIN.INI setups
Various setups of the FLINK.DLL are defined in the WIN.INI file. The setup procedure with the
WIN.INI is explained below.
Setup of the IrDA communication speed (MaxBaudRate)
The maximum possible baud rate of the IrDA is specified by "MaxBaudRate" in the WIN.INI
file.
Example
Setting the maximum possible baud rate to 4 Mbps
MaxBaudRate = 4000000
Setup required for IrDA communication between two HTs (DiscoverCount)
For two HTs to communicate with each other, "DiscoverCount" in WIN.INI must have a
different setting on the primary side and secondary side. For communication via the I/O Box, set
up the WIN.INI file of the HT on the secondary side.
Set DiscoverCount = 4 on the primary side.
Set DiscoverCount = 0 on the secondary side.
