TRANSFER SETUP:
Opens the window to
the right. Used not only to send the currently
open project (or a portion of that project) to an
ELC or a handheld programmer; but also to
upload a project from an ELC that is connected
to the PC.
VERIFY WITH ELC:
Verifies that the
currently open project is the same as the one
stored in an ELC that is connected to the PC.
PASSWORD SETTING:
Used to set the
password in the ELC. The password is required for any communication to the ELC.
Once a password is set, the only way to gain access to the ELC memory is to have that
password. If you do not have the correct password, you can clear the memory in the
ELC to gain access. If you are working with a PB model ELC and have forgotten the
password, enter four spaces when requested for the password and a window will appear
to confirm that you want to delete the entire ELC program. If you are working with a PC,
PA or PH, remove the battery for 10 minutes or click COMMUNICATION>FORMAT ELC
MEMORY to delete the entire ELC program. Once the program is deleted, you will have
access to the ELC memory.

processor is set.
