9.0 Downloading Application Software with TDL
The Terminal Downloader (TDL) is a feature in your OEM Controls, Inc. product that allows you to
program (download) new or revised software applications. All that you need is a computer with a
serial port and a cable. If you are using Microsoft Windows, the “Hyper Terminal” program may be
used to download a new application.
Quick Start Instructions ( For Advanced Users )
1. Connect the cable to the product’s Optimizer connector and to the PC’s serial port.
2. Turn on the product’s power supply.
3. Start your Terminal program at 115,200 baud.
4. Press the ENTER key several times until you see the Terminal program’s cursor to a
new line. ( The cursor is a blinking underline prompt )
5. Initialize TDL to access the CPU you need to query or download information to. Most
hardware will only require you to access CPU-A in order to query or download software.
Some hardware ( those modules with current regulation ) may require you to access
CPU-B in order to query or download software.
