Updating the Databook Software on Your PC
If the verify step performed by PROG.BAT (using DD.EXE) indicates that the
programmed card is not identical to the source file, then you probably need to
update the PC Card drivers on your PC. To obtain updated drivers for the
DataBook TMDĆ500Ć03 you can follow the procedures documented here.
1. Prepare your modem to use:
"
9600 B or 19.2 KB (other baud rates may also work)
"
8 data bits
"
no parity
"
1 stop bit
2. Call 508Ć777Ć9819 to log into the DataBook BBS. You will supply your
name, password, and other such details the first time you log in.
3. From the file area, download the file:
File name
Size
Date
Description
T650_315.ZIP
1,036,416
03/31/95
CardTalk V3.15 for TMD650/550
4. Create a new directory and use PKZIP to unarchive this file into that new
directory. Then run the INSTALL.EXE program to update your drivers.
5. Reboot with the new drivers loaded.

INTERLNK Procedure for 6200/6300 Computers
General Precautions
B
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to perform this update procedure on F-model or preproduction model
6300 Computers or on 6300 Computers with 512K flash memory (P/N 225-505-xxx/001
or /002. Further, older 6300 Computers (with a red [NO] key) cannot be updated to the
current flash version at the time of this writing. Attempts to do so renders these
computers unusable. Contact your Intermec sales representative.
Do not attempt to use the files associated with the INTERLNK procedure to
perform a master mode boot. To use the INTERLNK procedure, you must have a
working 6200 Computer. If flash memory is corrupted (or has not been
programmed), you must perform a master mode boot using an IFL card.
To minimize the possibility of flash memory's being corrupted by a power failure,
connect the 6200 Computer to an external power supply (such as a docking
station) during the update procedure.
INTERSVR Installation
You may use the following instructions only if you currently have a version of
flash that includes INTERSVR as a possible communication option in the
Norand Utilities application. If you do not have INTERSVR support, you must
update flash using an Initial Flash Load (IFL) card. These instructions assume
that you have placed all of the files needed by this procedure in a uniquely
named directory (C:\PK6200\FLASH for the 6200 Computer) and
(C:\PK6300\FLASH for the 6300 Computer). If the files are in a directory of a
different name, adjust these instructions accordingly.
