as outlined in the Phoenix Link software overview.

Operating Phoenix Link
1) The Phoenix Link software must be running at the host computer to communicate with your
shape cutting control. Start the Link software at the host PC from the desktop shortcut or select
the Windows Start Button, then select Run. From the opening prompt, type
C:\Link\Parts\Link.exe (or appropriate path to the Link.exe) and select OK. The Phoenix Link
window will appear. The Link software window may be minimized during operation if desired.
2) At the control, press the Files softkey and select to Upload or Download to Host. As the control is
connecting to the host computer, a status display in blue text for the communication can be
viewed in the lower right corner of the screen.
3) The control will initialize the port, open the port, and then try to contact the host. If this attempt at
communication fails, an error message will be displayed in red. If successful, the control will
download the available folder and part file names to be viewed on screen.
Note:
If the “Show
Host File Names” parameter at the control has been set to “No”, only folder names will be viewed.
