communications with the ACU, Starting the Upload
process, erasing the module, then finally uploading
the .s19 file itself.
For each line of hex data that is programmed during the ACU software upload procedure ProgTerm will display
one of the following characters:
“*” (successful programming),
“_“ (failed programming),
“!” (protected memory access).
Although ProgTerm actively monitors the upload process for any errors, If you see any “_” characters
while programming it means that the ports did not get locked properly and you must stop the upload (by pressing
Cancel to abort) immediately and restart the upload sequence.
This completes the upload process, it is recommended that you verify all parameters to ensure that they are
properly set to values that is compatible with your antenna and antenna control unit.
