7.3.8 Download New Site Data

13 7.3.8 Download the site data into the MOVA unit from the PC.
:
If the new site data contains a different number of links, lanes or stages, or
different time-of-day data then MOVA must be re-initialised – see section 7.2.1.
Only if the configuration is the same as the configuration currently running in the
MOVA unit (except for minor changes to timing values), can the new site data be
downloaded without initialising the unit.
Site data is not compatible between different versions of MOVA. The appropriate TRL
version of MOVA Setup will convert between the differing formats, e.g. MOVA Setup
M7.0 will convert MOVA 6 data sets to MOVA 7.
New site data can be downloaded into the MOVA unit using the 'Data Set' option – 'DS'
from the MOVA main menu, followed by the 'R' command.
Up to four 'plans' can be loaded into the MOVA unit's memory. Normally, only plan 1
will be used. However, it is possible to configure the MOVA unit to switch between the
plans at different times of day. Hence up to four plans, numbered 1 to 4, may have to
be downloaded.
The MOVA site data file name is usually suffixed by the '.MDS' extension.
When the download of a plan is complete, the MOVA unit enters a dialogue sequence,
as shown on the following page.
