Main Menu to download message files.
This option allows you to download:
•
All DL20 Files including:
-
MSTRFILE.DAT (DL20 special function file)
Created with menu option 5 - Set Up DL20 Special Functions
-
IOFILE.DAT (DL20 serial port configuration)
Created with menu option 3 - Set Up DL20 Serial Port
-
PIOFILE.DAT (DL20 parallel port configuration)
Created with menu option 4 - Set Up DL20 Parallel Port
-
MSG####.DAT (all DL20 message files)
Created with menu option 6 - Edit/Create Messages (Message Files)
If downloading a large number of message files this option is faster than
downloading selected DL20 files.
