NMI SMI RESET
Programming
Serial Port
SIMM
Socket
Insure that the power cord is disconnected from the controller (for safety).
Insert SIMM memory into SIMM socket and make sure it is seated properly.
Jumper JP1 on the CPU card. JP1 is located near the power supply connector. You may need
long needle nose pliers to get to this.
Plug in your power cord and turn on power. The LCD screen should be blank (no display) or blink
random characters, if not; the controller may not see the SIMM (poor seating) or the jumper may
not be in place, so (with power off) re-check those items and try again.
Connect the serial cable to the controller and to the PC com port to be used. Make sure you
know which com port you are using on the computer.
Find the correct directory on the computer where flashldr.exe and the hex file are located. If they
are on a floppy disk, copy them to a directory on the computer hard disk.

C:\3000software> type: flashldr (.exe not needed<ENTER>

After the application has been loaded, tell flash to boot from application.
FLASH CMD: type: sb <ENTER>
Quit Flashldr. This will update the flash tables appropriately.
FLASH CMD: type: q <ENTER>
Wait for FLASHLDR to update the flash tables and shut down. Turn off power to the controller.
Remove power cord. Remove JP1 jumper. Remove SIMM memory.
Reinstall power cord. Turn on power. Watch screen for normal MC³ countdown.
Touch the upper left and right corners of the screen to perform a ram reset.
