Normally this file was previously saved using the Save
Eprom
command. The Micro Console first asks which of the
four possible channels you would like to restore, then tells
you to send the file to put in this channel. The Micro
Console will start saving the data in the Brick starting at the
Start Frame, and continuing to the End Frame.

If there is an error the Micro Console will tell you the

frame at which it occurred. You will need to stop the file
download BEFORE you hit the <ESC>ape key to clear the
Micro Console.

The Bricks must be connected to the Micro Console by

the Smart Brick Network (for Smart Bricks) or J8 (for Dumb
Bricks) for this command to work. The Dumb Brick must also
be configured to accept start and reset on its Green Input
and External Clock on the Blue. This command is unavail-
able if ÔJ6 modeÕ is not selected. Your computer must be
configured for ÔACK/NAKÕ or ÔXon/XoffÕ handshaking to use
this command.

4) Save Archive:

This command is used to save the contents of all four eight
bit channels of the attached Brick to your computer as a
text file.

It first asks you to prepare your computer to receive a

ÔtextÕ file. When prompted, the Micro Console will start send-
ing out data starting at the Start Frame, and continuing to
the End Frame.

When the download is complete, you will need to tell

your computer to close the file that was being saved, and
then hit an <ESC>ape to redraw the screen.

The format of these archive files is similar to Intel ÔHEXÕ.

The big difference is that it contains four channels worth of
data. It will not work directly with any commercially avail-
able Eprom burners.

The Bricks must be connected to the Micro Console by

the Smart Brick Network (for Smart Bricks) or J8 (for Dumb
Bricks) for this command to work. The Dumb Brick must also
be configured to accept start and reset on its Green Input
and External Clock on the Blue. This command is unavail-
able if ÔJ6 modeÕ is not selected. Your computer must be
configured for ÔACK/NAKÕ or ÔXon/XoffÕ handshaking to use
this command.

5) Verify Archive:

This command is used to compare the contents of all four
eight bit channels of the attached Brick a file that was pre-
viously saved to your computer using the Save Archive
command. It prompts you to send a file for comparison.
The Micro Console will start comparing the data starting at
the Start Frame, and continuing to the End Frame.

If there is an error the Micro Console will tell you the

frame at which it occurred. The Green LEDs will show the
data that was expected and the Red LEDs will show you
what the Brick had in it. You will need to stop the file down-
load BEFORE you hit the <ESC>ape key to clear the Micro
Console.

If the comparison is successful you will need to hit an
