Option 2 - Use a non-
ConfigPro terminal
emulator and a "dl"
command

A D20MXDEVICE.SHX file is created when the tables of the D20MX device are generated.
See section "Configuration file in project directory" on page 130 or see step 8 [Locate the
D20MXDEVICE.SHX file] within this section.
Serially transfer the D20MXDEVICE.SHX file using Tera term (a terminal emulator) to the
D20MX RTU using the dl command; this is similar to the download process of a D20ME
firmware configuration. This download process is done at the D20M prompt.
To download a configuration to the D20MX, using a non-ConfigPro terminal emulator and
a "dl" command:
1. Connect a NULL modem cable (GE Energy part number 977-0529) from the RS-232
connector located at the front panel of the D20MX to the serial communications port
of the PC or terminal.
2. Set-up a VT100 terminal emulator [e.g., Tera term Pro] with the following serial
communication parameter values:
Parameter
Port
Baud Rate
Data
Parity
Stop
Flow Control
Transmit delay
To determine the computer port used, on the computer's desk top, right-click on the
My Computer short-cut icon and go to Manage. Go to Device Manager > Ports as
shown below.
3. Login to the D20MX device. The factory default configuration for the D20MX comes
with one default user account with: Username: admin; Password: changeme.
