Selecting the first item in the Main Menu, MVI Module

The MVI Module Configuration Menu is used to configure the
console port and module type. To move between menu items, press
Tab. Press + or - to change an item.
Note: The console settings configured on this menu are only used
when the Setup Jumper is in the Normal position (not installed). If the
Setup Jumper is in the Setup position, the console port is always
enabled and configured for 19200 baud. Console setting changes will
take effect the next time the module boots (after a reboot command
or power cycle).
The Compact Flash is an ideal tool for development because it is a
read/write device. It is much easier to download individual files to the
compact flash than to download a complete disk image to the ROM
disk, which is read-only. Typically, you use the compact flash for
development, and download the final runtime image to the A:\ ROM
disk.
The second choice on the Setup Main Menu, Begin Flash ROM
Update Mode, is used to update the ROM disk image. Once this
mode is entered, the module must be rebooted to continue normal
operation. A special Flash update utility, MVIUPDAT, is used to
transfer the disk image to the module.
