The
Exit
menu option closes the programming utility.

The
Read from Module
menu option allows the user to read an existing configuration
from a connected Module and auto populate the settings into the utility. This option is
similar to the Read Module button on the Modify Devices screen but is available at any
time through the menu. Reading a configuration will erase and overwrite any settings or
options currently selected.
The
Write to Module
menu option allows the user to write the currently open configuration
to a connected Module. The option is similar to the Write Module button on the Map Action
screen but is available at any time through the menu.

The
Write Firmware
menu option allows a user to re-
flash a connected Module’s
firmware. This option can be used to upgrade a Module to a new firmware version if the
user has an upgraded firmware to flash. When selected, the user will be prompted for a
firmware file. Note that firmware files and configuration files are different
– the Write
Firmware function cannot be used to update a Module’s configuration.
The
Write Blank Configuration
menu option allows a user to essentially erase the
configuration memory of a Module. The use of this feature is not encouraged unless
requested by a support technician. There is no need to erase a configuration before
updating or re-writing a new configuration.
