7.2.2 Loading an Executive Program
The “Executive” file in a device is analogous to the operating system in a PC. It is the Executive that is the
main firmware component and can be uploaded via a radio communications link, although this may take a
considerable time and is not recommended. No changes will occur within the device until the Executive
file is fully loaded and verified.
From the [Tools][Program Device] menu, click on the [
Browse
] button in the ‘Executive Firmware Update’
panel.
