PDPROG

PDPROG is the utility used to program a PSC portable through DOS.

Using PDPROG involves entering commands on the DOS command
line. The command line syntax is as follows:

pdprog filename[.hex] [- ¦ /][port]

where

filename

= the name of the file for the application to install in

the portable (The file has a .hex extension. Do not include the
extension in the command line.)

port

=

1 ¦2 ¦3¦4

to specify the serial port (default=COM2)

The port setting is optional and can be entered either before or after the
file name. If used, precede it with a hyphen (

-

) or a slash (

/

).

For example, use the command

pdprog descript -1

to transfer the

description program to a portable over the COM1 serial port.
