2510 Memory test dialog
Switch on the 2510 while holding down the [Auto] key until the 2510 displays [dd]. Select the COM
port on the 2510 Memory test dialog and click Test 2510 Memory to start the memory test. During
the test, the display of the 2510 will flicker a lot - this is normal. At the end of the test the 2510
displays [rd] if the memory test is Ok, a flashing [er] [xx] indicates a problem with the 2510 flash chip.
Binary 2510 files
In contrast to the files saved from the 2510 list dialog which are basically just 'reference' files, the
binary 2510 file contains the complete binary image of the 2510 download file. The binary file may be
saved right after the download file has been created. When the binary file is saved, the notes, a list
containing the fixture configuration with DMX addresses and a list of sequences are all embedded in
the binary file. The notes and lists may be viewed when re-loading the binary file. It is not possible to
re-construct the original fixture configuration or sequences from the binary file. If it is necessary to
maintain 2510 file lists for different fixture configurations use different user libraries for each
configuration.
Since the binary file contains all data for download and documentation for the fixture setup and
sequences it is a useful format for storing or distributing a 2510 download file for a known
configuration. Make sure to include useful information about special fixture settings etc. in the notes
on the 2510 list dialog before saving the binary file.
Loading a binary 2510 file
A binary file is loaded from the File -> Load Binary 2510 file menu entry in the 2510 list dialog.
Load Binary 2510 file dialog
Use the standard Windows file dialog to locate and select the 2510 binary file. Once the file has been
loaded, click Download to 2510 to download the data to the 2510. The notes and lists attached to
the binary file may be viewed on the different tabs. While it is not possible to print the information
directly from the dialog, the content may be moved by simple cut and paste to any application such
as MS Word or Windows Notepad in order to make a printout.
