This section describes how to back up and restore the
controller’s pages, memories and presets using a Macintosh
personal computer. See also:
• “RAM Card: Memory” on page 7-4
• “IBM-Compatible” on page 7-13
• “Crossloading” on page 7-30
Hardware/Software Requirements
• Hard or floppy drive with at least 260KB available space.
• One Macintosh-to-modem cable (male DIN 8 connector
on one end and a male DB25 connector on the other end).
• Female DB25-to-male DB9 adapter (do not use a null
modem adapter because that will prevent the data from
being transferred).
• White Knight
™
or any other commercially-available
Macintosh communication software. White Knight is
recommended, since the procedure that follows is based
on White Knight.
Connecting the Computer and Controller
1. Connect the DIN 8 end of the Mac-to-modem cable to your
computer’s free modem/printer port. If all modem/printer
ports are currently being used, you will have to disconnect
one port in order to proceed.
2. Connect the male DB9 end of the adapter to the controller’s
communication port, located on its rear panel.
