Downloading File

After you have created and translated your program, your next step is to download
the translated version to the module. Downloading is performed from the BASIC
Development Software while in Terminal mode. Access the Terminal mode as
discussed in the previous section.

Programs can be downloaded using RS-232 or DH485 communications from your
personal computer. If DH485 communications are desired, an adapter is available
that converts RS-232 into DH485. (Refer to the SLC 500 BASIC and BASIC-T
User Manual
, publication number 1746-UM004A-US-P.)
