LOAD PROGRAM FROM ASCII FILE

Command 2 sets up the CR10X to load a
program which is input as serial ASCII data in the
same form as sent in response to command 1.

A download file need not follow exactly the
same format that is used when listing a program
(i.e., some of the characters sent in the listing
are not really used when a program is loaded).
Some rules which must be followed are:

1.

"M" must be the first character other than a
carriage return, line feed, semicolon, or 7D
Hex. The "M" serves the same function as
"

∗" does from the keyboard. The order in

which the Modes are sent in does not
matter (i.e., the information for Mode 3
could be sent before that for Mode 1).

2.

"S" is necessary prior to the Scan Rate
(execution interval).

3.

The colons (:) are used to mark the start of
actual data.

4.

A semicolon (;) tells the CR10X to ignore
the rest of the line and can be used after an
entry so that a comment can be added.

There are 4 two-character control codes which
may be used to verify that the CR10X receives
a file correctly:

^B ^B

(2hex, 2hex)--Discard current buffer
and reset signature

^C ^C

(3hex, 3hex)--Send signature for
current buffer

^D ^D

(4hex, 4hex)--Load current buffer and
reset signature

^E ^E

(5hex, 5hex)--Load current buffer, Exit
and compile program

As a download file is received, the CR10X
buffers the data in memory; the data is not
loaded into the editor or compiled until the
CR10X receives a command to do so. The
maximum size of the buffer is 1.5K. The
minimum file that could be sent is the program
listing, then ^E ^E. ^C ^C tells the CR10X to
send the signature (Appendix C.3) for the
current buffer of data. If this signature does not
match that calculated by the sending device, ^B
^B can be sent to discard the current buffer and
reset the signature. If the signature is correct,
^D ^D can be sent to tell the CR10X to load the
buffer into the editor and reset the signature.
Once the complete file has been sent and
verified, send ^E ^E to compile the program and
exit the load command.
