Introduction
There are 2 ways to program (con
fi
gure) the Engine, Code Programming and Command Programming.
Code Programming
The Engine reads a set of specially encoded barcodes to program options and features. In the following
sections, we will explain the options and features available and provide the barcodes to program them.
This method of programming the Engine is most straight forward. However, it requires manually readings of
each barcode. As all manual operations, errors are more likely to occur.
Command Programming
The Host can send the Pro CMD strings to program the Engine. In the following sections, the Pro CMD
strings will be included with the barcodes for Code Programming.
This method of programming the Engine could be automated. A software program can be developed to
download all the con
fi
guration data to the Engine. The program can also verify the download.
Note: Except some temporary programming, the programming results are restored in non-volatile memory.
They will not be lost when the Engine is powered off.
