This is a selection field. Possible values are TEMPORARY (the
microcode is not written to nonvolatile memory and will be lost if the
system is restarted or powered off) and PERMANENT (the microcode is
written to nonvolatile memory and is retained across system restarts and
power interruptions).
Selecting this field begins the Xmodem download process. After you
have highlighted this item and pressed Enter, follow your emulation
software's file transfer procedures. Remember that since you will be
transferring a file from your workstation, you will use the software's
upload function.
Following a successful Xmodem file transfer, the 8237 will restart. You
will see the diagnostic messages that are displayed following a normal
powering on of the system.
