UPLOADING AND DOWNLOADING

PROGRAMS

Downloading program s means transferring them from

your computer to RAM on the RPC -2350. Uploading

means transferring programs from RAM back to your

computer. This section explains how to do both of these

procedures using PC SmartLink and both Windows

terminal programs. Generalized instructions for other

terminal programs are given at the end of this chapter.

Uploading - Windows

In the previous section, you wrote a test program. To

upload that program to a PC and save it to disk, first

type “list” but do not hit the < Enter> key.

Select “Transfer” then “ Capture to disk”. Enter the

name you want to save it as.

After that window closes, hit the enter key. The

program will be listed and captured by the terminal

program. To stop capture, select “Transfer” then

“Capture to disk” again. Then select stop transfer.

Your program is now saved.

Uploading - SmartLink

In the previous section, you wrote a test program. To

upload that program to a PC and save it to disk:

1. Press the < F1> key. A window with the main

menu will appear.

2. Press the letter U (upper or lower case). Your

program will begin to transfer from RAM to the

PC. When menu appears.

3. To save a program to disk, type the letter S. You

are prompted for a file name. Enter the file name

you want the program saved under.

4. Press < F2> to return to the immediate mode.

NOTE: Some versions of P C SmartLink have pull

down menus or will operate differently. Refer

to the SmartLink manual for the version you

are using.

Downloading - Windows

Select “Transfer” then “ Send Text file”. Select the

program . D ownloading begins.

For test purposes, select one of the programs on the

RPC-2350 dem o disk.

Depending upon the program (Terminal or HyperTerm)

you will see progress on your screen in different ways.

You may need to change the amount of delay between

lines. This is set under “Properties”, ”ASCII Setup”.

1/10 second is usually adequate for all progr am sizes.

You can set it to 10 milli-seco nds if your progr am is

small (under 500 lines). As the progr am gets lar ger, this

time should increase . A result of a short delay tim e is

missing or garbled program lines.

Downloading programs - SmartLink

To practice downloading a program , type

NEW<return>

Perform the following when using PC SmartL ink:

1. Press the < F1> key to view the main menu.

2. SmartLink has a buffer w hich is used to tem porar ily

store the program. If you followed these

instructions without exiting SmartLink, the

previously uploaded program is in the buffer and

may be downloaded. However, lets assume you just

started SmartLink. Press the L key to get the

program from the disk.

3. Enter the filename to get the file.

4. Press D to download the program.

5. Press the < F2> key to return to the program. You

can list the program by typing:

list

Other communications software

The following is general information when using another

terminal emulation program (Procomm , etc. ).

When uploading or downloading files, select ASCII text

format. Other formats are not used.

CAM BASIC does not know when you are typing in a

program or if something else (laptop or mainfr ame) is

sending it char acters. The upload and download file

does not contain any special control cod es, it is sim ply

ASCII characters.
