TSI-1575 APPLICATION CODE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE The following procedure requires the use of a terminal emulation communications program to install the new 1575 software. This example shows the procedure using Procomm Plus for DOS. Many other communication programs can be used if they are configured similarly. The key to loading the 1575 is to wait for the '->' prompt before sending the next line of the ASCII hex software file. The 1575 needs time to program the received data into FLASH memory before it can accept the next line of the software file. The ability to wait for a prompt character makes the download go as fast as possible, without overrunning the 1575's input buffer. Procomm and other programs have the ability to define a Line Pace Character, which would be the '>' character (62 decimal, 3E hex). 1. Configure Procomm Plus - Go to Setup Menu (Alt-S) Select Protocol Options Select General Options Set Abort Xfer if CD Lost = no Select Protocol Options Select ASCII Protocol Set Char Pacing = 0 msecs Set Line Pacing = 0 tenths of a sec Set Pace Character = 62 (use '>' as pace character) Set CR Translation (Upload) = None Set LF Translation (Upload) = STRIP Escape out 2. Connect the computer to the TSI-1575 RS-232C interface and observe the 1575 prompt. The computer must be operating at the TSI-1575 baud rate. 1575> 3. Type "$$DOWNLOAD" at the prompt and enter. 1575>$$DOWNLOAD 4. The TSI-1575 should responds as follows: HELP Display this screen of commands ECHO (ON,OFF) Turn character echo ON or OFF ERASE Erase all FLASH blocks for A & B ERASE (A,B) Erase all FLASH blocks for A or B ERASE (P1,...,P4,M1,...,M8) Erase specified FLASH blocks LOAD Erase & start download of Motorola S-record file STATUS Show Status of downloaded code RB addr Read bytes starting at specified hex address WB addr value Write 8-bit hex value at specified hex address WW addr value Write 16-bit hex value at specified hex address GO Start execution of downloaded code Bootstrap Version : V1.03, Jan 8, 1999 Application code : Installed & Confirmed Expected Checksum : 09947959 (sample, actual will vary) Actual Checksum : 09947959 " Bytes of Code : 627506 " User Dload Request : No Trap Occurred : No Dnld> 5. Type LOAD at the "Dnld>" prompt. Watch FLASH erase messages. Special "->" prompt should appear as follows: Dnld>LOAD Erasing ...

Upload FLASH (this requires approximately 15 minutes at 38.4K baud) Page Up ASCII protocol A:1575_XXX.hex (Refer to disk for value of XXX) (Assumes the upload disc is in A: drive) ->S00B0000313536372E6F75749B . . -S804000200F9 7. After the last S-record is uploaded, the "Dnld>" prompt should return. Dnld> 8. Type "GO" to run newly loaded application code.
