YMODEM [file-list] [/ZIP]
[/F] [/G]
With no options specified, the YMODEM command
will receive files using the Ymodem protocol and
store them on the 8310. If the file being transferred
has a .ZIP extension, then it will be automatically
expanded and the contents stored in the current
folder (typically \Flash Disk).
The command may be used to send files using the
Ymodem protocol by supplying a name or a file-list.
A file-list is simply a list of files to send (delimited by
spaces; use quotes around files containing spaces).
/ZIP may be used when sending files to cause the
files to be compressed in to a .ZIP archive before
being transferred. The name of the archive will be
the same as the first in the list with a .ZIP extension.
A transfer can be aborted by pressing ESC 3 times.
/G selects the Ymodem-g protocol, which can be
much faster than standard Ymodem as it does not
send an ACK character for each packet. Ymodem-g is
not a reliable protocol as it cannot recover from a
bad packet – it can only detect them, and it’s been
known to fail when sending large files (>90KB) from a
PC using Hyperterminal because Hyperterminal gets
too far ahead in the transfer and times out.
/F selects a proprietary fast receive option which can
speed up sending a file to the 8310 over a reliable
link. It works by sending an ACK character before it
has checked an incoming packet. The drawback to
this, is that the protocol cannot recover from a bad
packet; but because ACKs are still used it doesn’t
suffer from problems with large files like some
implementations of Ymodem-g can.
Making Remote Setup Changes using Setup Properties
Setup Properties allow measurements, inputs, outputs, processing steps, and mux settings to be displayed or set using the
command line (SET/GET/SHOW), SSP (GetTag/SetTag operations), or Basic (TAG() function). The properties may be
identified by "setup point" or by output tag name.
Selecting a property by setup point is the most expansive and precise manner and follows the same syntax as the setup. M
refers to a measurement, O to an output, I to an input, P to a processing step, and Mux to a mux setting. They are then
strung together in the order they occur in the setup. For instance "M1.I2.P.Slope" and "MuxA.EnableChanel" are both is
examples of setup points.
Selecting a property by tag is limited to selecting values that belong to the tag's output point, or associated measurement.
For instance, "STAGE.NAME" would reference the output's name, "STAGE.P1.SLOPE" would refer to the slope of the first
processing step used to compute stage, "STAGE.TIME" would refer to the measurement offset of Stage's measurement.
From the command line it's easy to explore the various points in the system using the SHOW command as it will show all
matching properties. For instance "SHOW M1" will show all the properties for M1. If you want to see the input properties,
you would need to enter "SHOW M1.I1", "SHOW M1.I2", etc. You can show tag properties as well, but partial matching is
