If you want to:

select:

the workstation:

· discard any changes
· close the open file

[Y]

· exits the AMP editor

terminate the quit procedure

[N]

returns to the screen that was displayed

before the quit procedure started

After you have edited and saved the AMP file, download the file to the
control so that it becomes the currently active AMP file. Use the

download application of ODS to download AMP files in these ways:

from the workstation to the control

to a storage device, then from the storage device to the control

Important: If you are using a DH+ network to download AMP using the

pass through feature, see page 2-32 for details on enabling pass through.

When you download directly to the control, connect the workstation to the
control. Refer to your integration and maintenance manual for more

information.

When you use serial communications and download to a control with a

standard MTB panel, connect the interface cable to the serial

communication port on the front left side of the standard MTB panel. This

port is interfaced directly with port B on the processor.

Important: The 9/230 has only one serial port. It is labeled and configured

as Port B.
