Downloading and Uploading User Program to and from Memory Cartridge

When a memory cartridge is installed on the CPU module, a user program is downloaded to and uploaded from the mem-
ory cartridge using

WindLDR

on a computer. When a memory cartridge is not installed on the CPU module, a user program

is downloaded to and uploaded from the CPU module. For the procedures to download a user program from

WindLDR

on a

computer, see page 4-8.

With a memory cartridge installed on a CPU module, if the user program stored on the memory cartridge does not match
the CPU module type, downloading is possible, but uploading is not possible. To upload a user program, make sure that
the existing user program stored on the memory cartridge matches the CPU module type. Downloading is always possible
to new blank memory cartridges installed on any type of CPU modules.

Downloading User Program from Memory Cartridge to the CPU Module

To designate user program download from the memory cartridge, use a CPU module with system program ver. 210 or
higher and

WindLDR

ver 5.31 or higher. Install a memory cartridge on the CPU module connected to a computer, and

power up the CPU module.
