8.3.4.1 File Attributes
A feature of program files is the file attribute. Table CR1000 File Attributes
(p. 342)
lists available file attributes, their functions, and when attributes are typically
used. For example, a program file sent via the support software Program Send
command, runs a) immediately ("run now"), and b) when power is cycled on the
CR1000 ("run on power-up'). This functionality is invoked because Program
Send
sets two CR1000 file attributes on the program file, i.e., Run Now and Run
on Power-up. When together, Run Now and Run on Power-up are tagged as
Run Always.
Note Activation of the run-on-power-up file can be prevented by holding down
the Del key on the external keyboard / display while the CR1000 is powering up.
