Transferring Application Files with

User PROMs

If the application file is greater than 64K, you can’t burn it into the
EPROMs. If this is the case, the following message appears:

“This application exceeds the memory limit (64K) for hex files or
PROMs. Delete one or more objects, messages, or screens to reduce size
to 64K or less”.

PanelBuilder takes a few seconds to generate the hex files. When the
operation is completed, a message appears, informing you that the hex
files have been generated successfully. The Burn FILENAME menu
opens, (where FILENAME is the name of the application you selected).

The download to the burner is done in two parts, because one file is
burned into two EPROM chips—the high bytes in one and the low bytes
in the other.

If you want to configure your computer’s serial port to communicate
with the EPROM burner, choose Configure Port.

b

If you want to calculate the amount of memory the application file
would occupy in a PanelView 1200 terminal, choose Application
Size. This is not the same as the disk space used by the application on
your PC.

c

Choose Send User Mem High Byte to send the data for EPROM chip
U52 to the EPROM burner.

d

Choose Send User Mem Low Byte to send the data for EPROM chip
U53 to the EPROM burner.
