7 LOADING PROGRAMS
7.1 Loading An Application Program
[Tools][Program Device]
Application programs and/or configuration settings can be separately loaded into a device. Loading a new
program or configuration setting automatically clears the device of the previous program.
The default directory for all programs is ..\iLink\Programs\<filename>.extn. Each family of programs has
its own unique extension as listed below:
DS-CPU3 <filename>.stn
DS-12840i <filename>.rtx
DS-4483 <filename>.lgr
IRIS 300 <filename>.irs
Depending on the device connected, iLink will automatically list only those files that can be loaded to the
device. The following example relates to loading a program to a DS-4483.
Select [Tools][Program Device] from the menu to go to the User Program window.
In the example above, iLink is reporting that a program is currently loaded and running in the device.
Loading an alternative program will replace the existing program in the logger.
Using the [Browse] button invokes a listing of the files saved in the default directory. Alternatively the
filename can be entered manually.
