UNIT•Y SOFTWARE UPLOAD
39
02R software
Software to control the 02R and the interaction between the UNIT•Y card and the console
reside in the two EPROM’s on the 02R Main board (described on page 6).
UNIT•Y software
The algorithms on the card are passed by the host processor to the signal processor, both
on the UNIT•Y card. DSP and host code reside in Flash RAM on the card. When new
algorithms are added, the Flash can be updated via a simple upload program running on a
Mac or a PC.
Upload program and application software may be downloaded free of charge from the TC
web-site, or you can obtain it from your dealer. Remember to consult the Read Me file
included in the software package before commencing. We also recommend you to back-up
all presets as described on page 18 before uploading any software.
If you have a
Mac
, a normal Mac serial cable is connected from one of the serial ports on
the computer (printer or modem) to the identical connector on the back of the 02R.
Turn off AppleTalk, if you use the printer port, and run the Mac upload program. Data is
uploaded to the UnitY card no matter what screen you look at on the 02R. You will see an
alert box counting on the console when data is being received.
The procedure take less than 1 minute. Afterwards new software is ready to use on the
UNIT•Y card. If you have more UNIT•Y cards on the console, the procedure needs to be
repeated.
If you have a
PC
, a 9-pin to Mini DIN cable has to be made first:
9-PIN SUBD (PC)
8-PIN MINI DIN (02R)

Connect the cable to a Com port and run the PC upload program. Data is uploaded to the
UnitY card no matter what screen you look at on the 02R. You will see an alert box
counting on the console when data is being received.
The procedure take less than 1 minute. Afterwards new software is ready to use on the
UNIT•Y card. If you have more UNIT•Y cards on the console, the procedure needs to be
