NOTE: The Master device is always the sender and
controls when the data transfer starts. The Slave device is
always the receiver and should be established and waiting
for data before the Master device is confirmed.
NOTICE: Do not send data to the memory storage de-
vice until the storage device is cleared and ready to re-
ceive. The Ready light must be on when transfer begins or
the stored data will not be valid.
Confirms selection of the machine controller as the Master and
immediately begins the transfer. All receiving (slave) machines
must be established before the master machine is designated.
PLEASE WAIT AC35
TRANSFERRING DATA
While the data transfer is occurring, the four digits at the top right
of the display scroll rapidly as the machine controller sends data.
The Receive light on the storage device illuminates when the data
transfer begins, indicating that it is receiving data. The display on
the slave machine scrolls quickly as data is accepted.
NOTE: Transfer times may vary somewhat, but the
average is about 75 seconds.

TRANSFERRING DATA
This display indicates that the machine controller deliv-
ered the data to the storage device.
The Receive light on the storage device goes off when the transfer
successfully ends. If all three lights on the storage device begin
blinking at any time during the transfer, the data being received
by the storage device is invalid. Clear the memory in the storage
device and perform the transfer again.
CAUTION: Data Corruption Hazard — If the machine controller indicates that the
data transfer is complete but the Receive light on the data storage device is
still illuminated, invalid data is stored in the storage device.
� Do not rely on the data in the storage device unless the machine con-
troller indicated that the transfer completed, AND the Receive light on the
storage device turned off automatically.
� Do not restore data from the storage device to the machine if the data is invalid. Re-
storing invalid data from the storage device to the machine controller will overwrite any
formulas that have been changed or created since the data was last stored. These formulas
can not be recovered.
