Important: As can be seen, when updating the BIOS and the
application, the pGD1 terminal shows the message "NO LINK", meaning
that no connection is established. Do not remove the terminal and wait
for the end of the update procedure, when the pGD1 terminal replicates
the messages on the built-in display.
Note: Autorun run is especially useful in those cases in which the
same operation needs to be performed on several controllers. For
example, to load diff erent applications on controllers connected in a
pLAN network, only one autorun fi le needs to be created; this uploads
the various directories contained on the pendrive based on the address
of the controllers. The controller with address XY will only load the
directory called "nomedir_XY" ["DirName_XY"]. The pendrive then only
needs to be plugged into each controller to run the upload, confi rming
from the shared terminal.
Manual upload
To manually upload the contents of the pendrive the user must access
the management menu from the system screens, selecting UPLOAD and
then MANUAL. The fi les are selected by pressing ENTER when the cursor
is on the desired fi le name. A selected fi le is marked by the symbol "*"
on the left. Once the fi les have been selected (all in the same directory),
press PRG to start the upload. To display the contents of a directory press
ENTER. To go up one directory level press ESC. Once the upload has
started, the messages shown on the screen are the same as in automatic
and autorun mode.
Download
As mentioned above, the DOWNLOAD operation can be managed in two
ways:
1. Manual mode: follow the steps described in the paragraph
"Automatic upload" and select manual operation. Then each fi le
must be selected and downloaded.
2. Autorun mode: prepare a fi le called "autorun.txt", containing a string
that identifi es the function to be performed.

The result is the creation of fi les with the required extensions, which will
be placed in the respective directories as described in the paragraph "File
names". When the operation is completed, the display shows a message
with the name of the directory created.
[FUNCTION]
Download application
The following screen will be displayed.
1. Press Enter to confi rm.
2. Download completed.
Example: On the controller with address 1, the autorun fi le will create a
directory called BKP00_01 and copy the fi les APPL_PCO.DWL and FILE_
DEV.DEV to this directory.
Setting the password
If the application contains a password that must entered in a special
screen, this is requested for each DOWNLOAD/UPLOAD between the
pCO and the pendrive. The password is used to:
• protect the contents of the pCO from being downloaded to the
pendrive;
• protect the PC connection (this is a standard procedure in pCO Manager).
Connecting to a computer
Connect the slave USB port on the controller to the USB port on the
computer where pCO Manager is installed.
