2 Available Device Types (process instruments) are shown. Select Device Type whose
configuration you want to download, for example, UDC2500.
3 Previously saved configurations are shown in the File List.
Double-click/double-tap a configuration to be downloaded.
4 Click Start. If using Infrared, first press any instrument button to activate infrared, then aim
the beam at the instrument, then click Start.
5 If the configuration being downloaded includes a change to the instrument’s address (that is,
Infrared/RS4585 device address and/or Ethernet IP address) then a popup asks you if you
want to overwrite the address(s). This helps protect against mismatched addresses between
instrument and the configuration in P.I.E..
Attention:
-In controllers, updates to Ethernet parameters may take up to 60 seconds to take effect.
After you change the instrument’s IP address, to make it recognized you must execute the
“arp-d” command at a DOS prompt.
6 Status of download (% complete) is shown. Also, at bottom of display a green Transmission
Status icon flashes if transmission is normal.
To terminate download, select Abort. If download is successful you are given option to Close
the dialog box.
