right. If an error in the command line is encountered, the program
stops with an error text showing the allowed values of the parameters.
If the parameter
-t
is found, the program stops without processing
any following parameter. If you do not specify the parameter
-t
at all,
the program does not stop and enters the interactive mode after hav-
ing processed the complete command line.
If you wish to specify a name parameter containing spaces or special
characters, use the conventions valid for your operating system. In
Windows™ systems, for instance, enclose the name in quotation
marks.
The quiet program mode reduces the program text output, contrary to
that, the debug mode provides a detailed output for error analysis.
Tips
To backup the complete device memory, execute the command:
PulseLoader 6 -y MemoryData.txt -t
The text file
MemoryData.txt
will contain the memory data in hexa-
decimal format. To restore the device memory, use the command:
PulseLoader 6 -Y MemoryData.txt -t
It restores the data immediately without any confirmation, thus be
careful when executing it.
Note also that the backup and restore needs several minutes to finish.
Utility FlashLoader
The FlashLoader is a simple Windows™ program running in text
mode. It enables you to upgrade the firmware of the pulse controller.
You should perform the upgrade if you have received or downloaded
a new firmware file from the device manufacturer. Launching the utility
FlashLoader.exe
without any parameters displays a simple help
text with the expected syntax of the command line.
Before upgrading the firmware, you should first test the device and the
communication by verifying the current firmware version. To do so,
start the following command:
