After downloading AMP, you must turn off the control and then turn

it on again. The new AMP parameter values are then used for

software execution.

be connected to the storage device. In this procedure the specific storage

device is an Allen-Bradley 1770-SB cassette recorder.

Turn “ON” the cassette recorder.

Load an AMP data cassette into the cassette recorder.
