The DTAM Programming Software (DPS) is a self-prompting, menu driven
package that allows you to create and edit applications for the DTAM Plus or
DTAM Micro operator terminals. DPS does not require any programming
knowledge.
DTAM Plus Series C and later versions require 2707-NP Programming
Software release 7.0 and later.
DTAM Micro Series C and later versions require 2707-NP Programming
Software release 8.0 and later.
Because of the hardware enhancements made to the DTAM Plus and DTAM
Micro products, a minimum level of firmware is required for these products
to operate with the programming software. Previous series of these products
have not been released with the newer firmware required. As a precaution:
You should upgrade the software for the DTAM Micro or DTAM
Plus to Version 9.0 or above.
