Pro software functions. Figure 15 shows the Preferences window.

The PopUps tab is used to configure several options related to downloading files, uploading files, and file saving. Once the
parameters have been set in this window, the user will no longer be prompted with pop-ups when they upload or download
files.
For more information on these options, refer to PowerTools Pro Operation Preferences on page 29 in this manual.

The Communications tab is used to configure which communication ports are scanned when uploading or downloading. When
the check box is selected that port will be scanned and to disable a port scan clear the check box.
The user can configure which node addresses they wish to poll when uploading, downloading or flash upgrading devices.
PowerTools Pro will not check to see if any devices with node addresses lower or higher than the numbers entered are
