The following SmartTERM File menu items briefly describe some basic features of the application.
Download File...
Launches a file-open dialog box that selects a file (usually a DMC file) to be
downloaded to the controller. This command uses the DL command to download the
file, clearing all programs in the controller's RAM.
Upload File...
Opens a file save-as dialog that creates a file for saving the DMC program that is in
the controller's RAM. This command uses the UL command to upload the file.
Send File...
Launches a file-open dialog box that selects a file (usually a DMC file) to be sent to
the controller. Each line of the file is sent to the controller as a command and is
executed immediately.
