First Steps with the PC EDITOR
To avoid accidentally overwriting an existing PRESET, it is important that you follow the correct routine when initiating a
session between TOTAL RECALL and your computer.
1] With TOTAL RECALL powered up and connected to your PC's serial port as described,
Run
the PC EDITOR program
by selecting the Tr EDITOR icon in the Windows PROGRAMS menu.
2] The PC EDITOR should now be loaded. A welcome screen will appear. This closes after 5 seconds (or click on it). Select
NEW from the FILE menu.
You will be presented with 2 options - NEW UNIT and NETWORK SCAN.
If your TOTAL RECALL has already been installed and set-up
and you now wish to view and/or modify some para-
meters, do the following:
Select
NETWORK SCAN
. The program will scan your PC's serial ports. When
Done
, it will present a list of IDs. The
ID
number
of TOTAL RECALL is
1
(this cannot be changed). The ID list will show if TOTAL RECALL (ID 1) is correctly
connected or not. Pressing
OK
will prompt
the system to retrieve (
UPLOAD
) all the parameters and all previously saved
USER PRESETS from TOTAL RECALL to your computer. A window will automatically open on your computer screen.
You can now view the settings and edit them (depending on the
Lock
mode).
