Communicating with PrecisionFlo LT
Communication with the PrecisionFlo LT is carried out
through the Graco Shell program (included). This is a
text based menu program that you can use to perform
the following tasks:
• Upgrade software
• Display software versions
• Download job and alarm logs
• Backup and restore setup parameters
• Restore the factory defaults
You can access the Graco Shell program via the pro-
gramming port on the side of the control box. Plug one
end of the programming cable into the RJ12 (phone jack
style) on the control box and the other end of the cable
into the serial (COM port) of a computer.
For more information on the use of Ethernet and
Ethernet Kit 118329 see Appendix D , Ethernet Kit
118329 , page 106.
The laptop computer used to interface to the Graco
Shell must be running some type of terminal emulation
software. Some examples are Hyper Terminal or Tera
Term. Graco recommends using Tera Term which can
be downloaded from
http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/
VA002416/teraterm.html . The following communica-
tions parameters must be used (these are the default
parameters in Tera Term).
Once the programming cable is connected and the com-
munications software is running, the user can activate
the Graco Shell by pressing the Enter key on the key-
board. The main menu will be displayed.
The main menu will look as follows:
****Welcome to the Graco Control Application Menu****
