Results/Configuration Data Overview

A–4

The template blocks (part of configuration memory) contain previously
learned image templates, not on-line configuration parameters. Word 1, bits
8-15 (third byte sent using RS-232 port) of the first template block indicate
the total number of template blocks in the configuration. You must always
upload or download all of the template blocks as a unit. You cannot archive
only a part of the template blocks. When uploading templates from the
CVIM, the program should read the first template block and check word 1,
bits 8-15 (third byte sent using RS-232) to determine the number of template
blocks to follow. The number of blocks remaining is then 1 less than the
total number of template blocks. When downloading templates to the CVIM,
the program must send all template blocks. Bits 8-15 of word 1 determine
the number of blocks to send.
