Before you can upload, you must establish where the block transfer
Pass-Through address is located on the PanelView 1200 terminal. If you
aren’t sure where the block transfer Pass-Through address is located, you
can check the rack assignments in the Pass-Through Download Options
menu on the PanelView 1200 terminal. You access this menu from the
Configuration menu.

valid application file. The application must have a block transfer
Pass-Through address assigned.
