AutoStart
Addendum 9
Autostart.ini
The Autostart.ini is a text file that AutoStart will run upon startup of the
Falcon, and after any CAB files are installed. This file should be placed in the
AutoStart folder. AutoStart will run the
Autostart.ini file on each reboot
of the device (with the exception of a Clean Boot, which will remove the
AutoStart folder).
Line Formatting
Each line of the Autostart.ini can consist of Autostart options, an execut-
able, and any command line arguments.
< Autostart option(s)> <full path to executable>
<command line arguments>
Sample:
- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc
Table 7 breaks down the sample
Autostart.ini line.
Table 7. Autostart.ini line formatting
Spaces must be placed between each component of the line in the
Autostart.ini.
If the executable path is in a folder that contains spaces in the name, quotes are
required to distinguish what the actual executable name is. The following is an
example of this:
“\Program Files\PSC\ScannerApp.exe” /run (valid)
\Program Files\PSC\ScannerApp.exe /run (invalid)
The second line is an invalid line because there is no way to distinguish the
executable from the argument.
Autoexec.ini, which uses AutoCE on some older models, has been deprecated.
These files should be renamed to Autostart.ini and reformatted as described in
"AutoStart" on page 1-7.
