1.5.3 Diagnostic Software Disk
The CDU does not rely on a dedicated external device for system diagnostics. All of the unit diagnostic
tests and configuration functions are included on a Diagnostics Software Disk that runs on a standard
DOS-compatible personal computer (PC) which plugs into the CDU’s rear mounted Diagnostic Port.
The Diagnostic Software has been designed to permit easy customization of the operation of the CDU.
Most of the variable default values and functions are user selectable, set by the factory at purchase
time, or by railway technicians via a PC computer after purchase. The Diagnostic Software program on
the disk is named
“diagunit.exe”
and its use is described in Sections IV.
The Diagnostic Software Disk can be ordered under the following part numbers:
Description Part Number

5.25” Diskette N451232-1265

1.5.4 CDU Executable Software Disk
The CDU uses a FLASH type programmable non-volatile memory chip to store its application software
as opposed to a standard EPROM. This eliminates the need to disassemble the unit and physically
replace the EPROM in the event that software upgrades are issued.
The CDU Executable Software disk allows the user to download CDU software upgrades into the
CDU’s internal FLASH memory. This disk contains two files; (1) the latest upgrade version of the CDU
executable software named
“cdu.hex”
, and (2) the Cab Unit Flash Loader program named
“load.exe”
. The use of this disk is described in Appendix A.
The CDU Executable Software disk is available on a 3.5” diskette under US&S part number N451232-
0821.
