Download.exe is a DOS-based freeware program that can upload and download
configuration files through the EGCP-2's RS-422 serial port. This program is
available through the Internet from the Woodward website
(www.woodward.com/ic/software).
Requirements
• RS-232 to RS-422 converter
• PC capable of running DOS-based executables
• DOWNLOAD.EXE, part number 9926-113 Rev B or greater
Instructions
Set-up
Save the DOWNLOAD.EXE file:
Save the DOWNLOAD.EXE file to the computer. In the following example this file is
saved in a directory called EGCP2 on the C: drive. Open a DOS command window
and go to the directory where the download file is stored. Type DOWNLOAD –h (or
–?) for a complete list of the command-line options (see below).
Establishing a Connection:
Connect the RS-232 / RS-422 cable between the EGCP-2 and the computer.
See the Communication Ports section of the Operation and Installation manual
26175 for more information about this cable interface.
NOTE
Only one EGCP-2 can be connected to the RS-422 communication network
when uploading or downloading setpoints. If a multidrop network has been
setup linking more than one EGCP-2 on the RS-422 communication port
network, it will be necessary to separate the control from the network in
order to upload or download setpoints.
