Before you can upload or download an application, you must verify that the
DIP switches are set properly. Refer to the DTAM Plus or DTAM Micro
user manuals for the upload/download switch settings.
Refer to the accessories list in DTAM Plus or DTAM Micro user manuals for
the proper communication cable. Cable diagrams are provided in these
manuals if you need to construct your own cable.
Upload and download functions are initiated from a personal computer
running the programming software DPS. Transfer functions occur at 9600
baud. Make sure that the computer’s communication port is also set for 9600
baud.
After the transfer is complete, the DTAM Baud rate is set to the parameters
defined by the application program residing in the DTAM Micro or DTAM
Plus.
Make sure that the printer communications port and the DTAM Plus printer
port have matching baud rates, parity and data lengths. Refer to Chapter 14
for a description of the printer port configuration screen.
