to remind the user to transfer the files to the target in order to
make the changes effective.
Warning!
Changes made directly on the target are not
automatically detected by the configurator. In these
cases, the user must remember to reread the files from
the target in order to update the configurator. If this is
not done, all the changes made on the device will be lost
the next time files are transferred from the configurator
to the target.
When the configurator is connected to the target (HW
configuration and functional options aligned between the
configurator and the 2850T-3850T device), the user may
decide to:
• send all the files in the application to the target, with
the changes made using the configurator, using the
"Write files to target" command (see image below)
• reread all the application files from the target, losing
all the changes made using the configurator, using the
"Read files from target" command (see image below)
• The paragraphs below describe the configurations
associated with the various buttons appearing on the
main page.
