DCT6200\DCT6208 Installation Manual
The software download may take up to 45 minutes (or longer if the system is experiencing
high demand). As long as the progress indicator is spinning, the download is progressing.
When the progress indicator alternates between rapid and sluggish movement, this may
indicate that the stream is spinning too fast for existing plant conditions.
!
When the software object download is complete, the LED displays:
EF
For up to 60 seconds during flash erasure
FP
For up to 60 seconds during flash programming
!
When the LED display is blank, the DCT* is ready for initialization and service
authorization using the addressable controller. Verify that the DCT* is powered up or reset
within two minutes of a completed download.
