Sending the Hex Image

Once the hex file is built, you are ready to download it to the terminal. A Hex image
download requires both TCM and a program loader stored on the terminal. The terminal
comes with a program loading utility, Initial Program Loader (IPL), stored in the terminal's
write-protected flash. To run IPL, the terminal must be inserted in a cradle or connected to
a development PC by direct serial connection.
