CHAPTER 2 SETUP AND OPERATION

Page 5

new<return>

Perform the following when using PC SmartLINK:

1. Press the < F1> key to view the main menu.

2. SmartLINK has a buffer which is used to

temporarily store the program. If you followed

these instructions without exiting SmartLINK, the

previously uploaded program is in the buffer and

may be downloaded. However, lets assume you just

started SmartLINK. Press the L key to get the

program from the disk.

3. Enter the filename you saved it under then press the

< F2> key.

4. Press D to download the program.

5. Press the < F2> key to return to the programing

mode. List the program by typing:

list

NOTE: Some PC SmartL INK versions drop the first

line of uploaded code. To make sure the entire

program is uploaded, make the first program

line a REM.

Other communications software

The following is general information when using another

terminal emulation program (Procomm, Windows

Terminal, etc.).

When uploading or downloading files, select ASCII text

format. XMODEM, YMODEM, or other formats are

not used.

RPBASIC-52 does not know when you are typing in a

program or if something else (laptop or mainfr ame) is

sending it char acters. The upload and download file

does not contain any special codes; th ey are sim ply

ASCII characters.

Uploading programs is simply a process of receiving an

ASCII file. You or your program simply need to send

"LIST" to receive the entire program . The default baud

rate (9600) is rather high. M ake sure your PC and

communications software ca n work at these bau d rates.

PROCOM M was tested on a 12 Mhz 286 PC and it

worked fine. Windows Terminal on the same PC had

problems at m uch slower baud rates.

Downloading a program requires transmitting an ASCII

file. As you type in (or download) a line, RPBASIC-52

tokenizes that line. The time to do this depends upon its

complexity and how many lines of code have been

entered.

RPBASIC-52 m ust finish compiling a line before starting

the next one. When a line is compiled, a "> " character

is sent. This should be your terminal programs pacing

character when downloading a program.

If your communications program cannot look for a

pacing prompt, set it to delay transmission after each line

is sent. A 100 ms delay is usually adequate, but your

program may be long and complex and require more

time. A r esult of a short transmission time is missing or

incomplete program lines.

COM 0 on the RPC-52 does not recognize the CT S or

RTS lines. The CTS line is pulled high on the RPC-52.

The effect of not recognizing these lines is your PC or

terminal cannot hold off the RPC-52' s transmission.

Converse, the RPC-52 cannot hold off the host from

sending it data.
