The SMT-200DS menu allows you find the Docking Station version
and serial number under the Information option. The Help gives
some general advice on use of the software. Specific help can be
found by moving the hi-light to the option in question and hitting the F1
key. Settings allows you to change the COM port and the colour
mode (Colour or Monochrome) of the screen. Exit will terminate the
program.
The File menu allows you to save all the current settings to a
configuration file (Save configuration). These will always have
a file extension of CFG. The default is SMT200.CFG. These
can be used in any subsequent session by using the Retrieve
configuration option. Data file name specifies the file to which
test results are written. There are also some general file
handling commands that allow you to View, Print, Copy and
Erase data files. Information on files provides a summary of
directory and file locations of all files used or selected.
The SMT-200 menu gives you option to change various test and
SMT-200 parameters. The individual menu items are a duplicate of
SMT-200 menu items and are covered in detail in Section 2.
Com settings allow you to adjust the baud rate for data transfer
over the com port. This is only used if you want to dump data to a
serial device such as a serial printer at a different baud rate than
default. The SMT-200 user cannot change data rates for transfer
between the SMT-200 and Docking Station.
Data Download will only download the test data stored in the
SMT-200. Initially the file name given is TEMP.PRN but the user is
given an option to change this.
File Transfer will decide if the current configuration needs to be
uploaded. It does this by checking if the time and date of the
current CFG file is newer than the one stored in the SMT-200. After
this, stored SMT-200 test data is downloaded to the PC. Initially
the file name given is TEMP.PRN but the user is given an option to
change this. See 3.11.
Tag file upload please see Appendix D for detail on this feature
System Update is used to upload new SMT-200 software. The
version of code held on disk will be copied to the SMT-200 if newer
than the software already loaded in the SMT-200.
