"Location of Flash Master File"
Specifies the location of the Flash Master File (FLASH.MST). The contents of the
FLASH Master File will be displayed in the box at the bottom of the dialog box, and
may be used to select binary files for FLASH downloading. (See above). If necessary, you
can use the [Browse] push button to locate the FLASH Master File.
Click on [Finish] to install the specified BIN file in FLASH memory at the RTU.
Once the Flash download has begun, you will NOT be allowed to shut down LocalView,
unless you cancel the download, or it has been completed.
The progress of the Flash download will be displayed in the window. Any mismatch in file
versions, or if the type of .BIN file does not match the type of RTU, the download will be
aborted.

“What is the Link Level Timeout Period”
This defines the maximum amount of time (in seconds) that Open BSI will wait to
receive a response to any one data link transaction. If 0 is entered as the link timeout
period, the system will use a default timeout calculated based on the baud rate of the
line.
