Creating the Script for the Hex Image
On start-up, TCM displays the TCM window with the Script1 window and File Explorer window pointing to the following directory:
\Program Files\Symbol Device Configuration Packages\MC3000C42a\v0.1\TCMScripts\
\Program Files\Symbol Device Configuration Packages\MC3000C42b\v0.1\TCMScripts\
The Script1 window directory pane displays two partitions: Platform and Application. Depending on the type of flash chip, the number
of partitions may vary. Files can be added to each of the partitions. TCM functionality includes:
• Opening a new or existing script file
• Copying components to the script window
• Saving the script file.
Opening a New or Existing Script
A script file can be created from scratch or based on an existing script file. Click Create to create a new script or click Open to open
an existing script (for example, a script provided in the DCP. If an existing script is opened and changes are made, saving the changes
overwrites the original script. To use an original or Symbol supplied standard script as a base, use the Save As function to save the
script using a different file name.
Updating TCM 1.X Scripts
Script files that were created with older versions of TCM can be upgraded to TCM 2.0 scripts. Click Open to open an existing script
created with an older version of TCM. The Conversion window appears automatically.

Click on an item in the Select a Version list then click OK to save the script with the selected version.
Copying Components to the Script
Script contents are managed using standard file operations such as New Folder, Delete and Rename. Items can be added to the script
by clicking files and folders in the File Explorer window and dragging them to the Script window. The File Explorer window supports
standard windows; multiple files may be selected by clicking while holding the SHIFT or CTRL keys.
Saving the Script
Modifications to a script file can be saved using the Save or the Save As function. Saving changes to an existing script writes over
the original script. To use an original or Symbol supplied standard script as a base, use the Save As function to save the script using
a different file name.
