File transfer
The file transfer function allows method files
to be transferred between Rocket 4D and a
remote computer via a USB data key (not
supplied).
Using the file transfer function, custom
methods may be installed and existing
methods may be transferred from one
evaporator to another. Log files and system
information can also be downloaded from the
evaporator.
Note:
For reliable operation, use a small
data key (4 GB or less) that does not have
protection, encryption or drive partitioning.
The data key should be kept relatively empty
and defragmented. If errors occur, clear the
data key and reformat using FAT32 standard
(do not use quick format).
Insert the data key into the USB port (under
the left hand side of the control panel).
The Rocket 4D acknowledges the presence
of the data key by emitting three short beeps
and displaying a USB icon on the screen.
USB Data key
When a data key is used for the first time,
Rocket 4D creates a root folder called
\ROCKET\
, with sub-folders:
\ROCKET\ARCHIVE
and
\ROCKET\DATALOG
.
Files transferred from Rocket 4D to the
data key, are automatically filed in the
appropriate folder. To transfer files from a
data key to Rocket 4D, they must be in the
root of the
\ROCKET\
folder.
To Copy methods from a USB data key
to the evaporator:
1.
Using a PC, ensure there is a root
folder called
\ROCKET\
on the USB
data key and copy the new method(s) to
it.
2.
Insert the data key into the evaporator
USB socket (located under the left hand
side of the control panel).
