Step Display Action
The correct cable connects the download computer serial port (COM1 or COM2)
to the RS-232 serial port (COM1) of the VX 520 terminal (refer to Cable
Connection for Direct Downloads).
Download Manager, VeriCentre, or DDL.EXE running on the host computer.
The application file to download (full or partial) is located on the host computer.
The correct keyed record variables exist in the CONFIG.SYS file(s) of the file
group(s) to store the application files.
Certificate files (*.crt) required for file authentication on the receiving terminal
are stored in memory or they are located on the host computer, and must
download with the application files.
All required signature files (*.p7s) generated using the VeriShield File Signing
Tool are located on the host computer. One signature file downloads for each
executable (*.out or *.lib) to run on the terminal.
The filenames in the batch download list on the host computer indicate which
application files to redirect to flash and file groups other than the target group.
Ensure that filenames and CONFIG.SYS variables to download are correct in
relation to those stored in the memory of the receiving terminal to avoid accidental
overwrites.
The required terminal manager and file group passwords are available to make
the required terminal manager menu selections and to prepare the receiving
terminal to receive the application download.
Sufficient memory space exists in the RAM of the target group so that it can
accept the entire download package, including certificates, signature files, and all
data files.
