Uploading Waypoints from a Personal Computer
You can use any terminal or communications program to download or
upload waypoints and routes to or from the CDU and a PC.
Set the PC to:
4800 baud
8 bits
I stop bit
no parity
no flow control
When sending data to theCDU, it must be sent in block form, followed
by (with an appended) CR (carriage return) and LF (line feed). Normal
communications programs, like Windows 3.1 or 3.1I Terminal are suf-
ficient to get the job done. Unfortunately Windows 95doesn't provide
a basic terminal emulation program; therefore, a third party program is
required with Windows
95.
Using Windows Terminal, do the following (from the Program Man-
ager):
I. Connect the CDU's port 2 RS-232 port to the PC's communications
port (Refer to the Installation & Service Manual).
2. On
tile
CDU press the CFG key until CFGl screen is displayed.
3. Scroll down the menu to WPL Input.
4. Press the Ekey.
5. Set the Transducer Connected to Yes.
6. Set the Data Input Port No. to 2.
