4–9 Downloading 1000e/1200e/1400e Application Files
5. Select or clear the following download options:
Download Option Description
Overwrite Existing File If a file of the same name already exists in the
terminal’s storage, it will be erased automatically.
Clear the check box if you want to be warned
before the existing file is erased. The default is to
prompt before overwriting the existing file.
Format If Full All files downloaded to the terminal occupy space,
even if they are erased. The only way to free up
space is to format the terminal storage. If Format If
Full is selected, the terminal’s storage will
automatically be formatted if there is not enough
space to accommodate the downloaded file. Clear
the check box if you want to be warned before the
terminal storage is reformatted (or if you want to
be able to select another storage location if the
selected one is full). The default is No.
Important: The terminal’s storage can hold more
than one application file. If you select Format If
Full, all files in the selected storage will be
removed. Ensure you have backups of any files
you do not want to delete. See the instructions for
uploading files in Chapter 3 to back up terminal
files.
Download If Newer When this box is checked, the application file is
downloaded only if it is newer than the file of the
same name in the terminal’s memory. The default
is No.
If the Make Application Current box is not
selected, the Download If Newer option is not
available.
Ignore Compatibility Warnings When this box is cleared, a warning message is
displayed if the application you are downloading to
the PanelView terminal is incompatible with the
terminal’s type or its firmware version. If this box is
checked, the warning message is not displayed.
By default, this box is unchecked, and a warning
message is displayed.
Note: Although an incompatible file can be
downloaded, it cannot be selected as the current
application.
If the Make Application Current box is selected,
the Ignore Compatibility Warnings option is not
available.
Make Application Current This box is selected by default. When selected, the
newly-downloaded application will become the
currently-active application. When the terminal is
switched to Run mode, the current application is
executed. Clear this check box if you don’t want
the downloaded file to be selected automatically
as the current application.
Note: The application file is automatically
selected after a successful download if there is no
current application in the terminal, whether this
option is enabled or not.
