***BEGINNING OF SPECIAL PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS***
Programming the Controller via HyperTerminal
If for some reason the Flash File loader fails to perform correctly, the following procedure can be used to upgrade the
Controller. While it is not anticipated that this procedure will ever have to be used, it is provided here as an alternative
way to program the Controller. The Flash File Loader will still be required to update the ScreenPros.
Requirements
(1) 9 pin Serial Cable (F-M) wired pin 1 to pin 1 must be connected from PC COM port connector to CONSOLE
connector on controller.
Procedure

Start HyperTerminal
Select File-New Connection

Entering Code Loader Program:
1) Power the remote control unit ON and wait for it to complete the booting process.
2) In the HyperTerminal Window, press ESC to terminate the application program.
3) At this point within the HyperTerminal Window, the LOADER> prompt will be displayed.
The controller display will show that it is "READY TO RECEIVE DATA"

4) In the HyperTerminal Window, type TERM and press Enter. Please note that the window will not show the
letters as they are typed.
5) The B:\> prompt should now be displayed.

the file listing, type "DEL MAINAPP.EXE" and Press Enter.
7) Type "UP STARTUP.BAT" and press enter. The controller is now waiting to receive a file. A "C" is
periodically sent to the output window by the controller to indicate that it is waiting for a file. If you take too
long to begin the file transfer, the controller will quit the upload command. If this happens, do the following:
a) At the B:\> prompt, type DIR and press Enter.
b) You will see a listing of files on the B:\ drive.
c) STARTUP.BAT will be one of the files in the list and it will have a file length of zero (0).
