Instructions
Type DOWNLOAD at the DOS command prompt for a list of the most-used
command-line options.
Type DOWNLOAD –h (or –?) at the DOS command prompt for a complete list
of the command-line options.
The following examples assume that COM1 is the available serial port on the
PC.
Uploading Setpoints:
On the EGCP-1, under the Configuration Menu (requires password authorization
to enter), step to the Serial Port item. Select "Upload Setpoints". Reboot the
EGCP-1. When the EGCP-1 passes the self-tests, it will be ready to start
uploading setpoints. Type "Download –u –o save.spt" at the DOS command
prompt. The program will begin uploading setpoints within a few seconds.
Downloading Setpoints:
Type "Download save.spt" at the DOS command prompt. Reboot the EGCP-1.
When the EGCP-1 passes the self-tests, it will begin downloading the setpoints
from the file "save.spt". The EGCP-1 will reboot when it has finished.
It is highly recommended that Uploading and Downloading of setpoints only be
done between units with the same code revision level. The EGCP-1 will display
a warning message and reboot after the self-tests if the setpoints and labels are
not compatible with the internal code revision number. This revision number is
displayed briefly after the self-tests are complete. It will be displayed on the last
line of the lower LCD panel.
