the standard file format (.fm3), as well as in the secure file format (.fm3s). The “s” at the end of the file extension stands for “secure”. The secure file will be saved to the same directory as the standard file.

To perform the Secure Download, close all open files in PowerTools Pro. Then click on Device\ Secure Download on the menu bar as shown below.

A window will then pop up asking the user to select the secure file that they wish to download. Select the secure file that was just saved, and then click on the “Open” button. This will download the secure file to the target device.

A secure file (.fm3s) cannot be opened or modified. The file extension cannot be changed to allow the user to open it. The secure file is only valid for use by the secure download function. If a user attempts to upload a secure file, a message will appear indicating that the file residing in the system has been protected by the user. An example of this is shown below.
