Use this command to download configuration and application data over the serial port into RAM or FLASH. The 68K Monitor accepts a transfer of ZMODEM binary data to the D25 initiated either by the D25 user or by the sending terminal.

When the transfer is complete, the DOWNLOAD command returns control to 68K Monitor’s command line.

Application code download only works when:

executing from the BootROM, and

the monitor has erased the FLASH region.

While the command downloads the file, it recognizes the ZLIB format of the compressed data and uncompresses it.

Syntax

Below is usage and syntax information for this command

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Command Format

rz [/(Vlevel Mtimeout Ctimeout Wwindow)]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Variables

/Vlevel

verbose level, which determines the level of

 

 

 

 

 

debug messages displayed (default is zero, any

 

 

 

 

 

non-zero value will activate debug messages).

 

 

 

 

/Mtimeout

set receive message timeout to the user specified

 

 

 

 

 

value (the default is 2000 ms).

 

 

 

 

 

 

/Ctimeout

set inter-character timeout to user specified value

 

 

 

 

 

(default is 500 ms).

 

 

 

 

 

 

/Wwindow

set receiver window size to user specified value

 

 

 

 

 

(default is 1400 bytes).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Special

Before the start of the download, the system must suspend all

 

 

 

Considerations

non-protected process running in the system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• If there are parameters on the command line, the monitor

 

 

 

 

assumes that the D25 initiated the download, and allows 20

 

 

 

 

seconds for the user to activate the software that will send

 

 

 

 

data to the D25.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• If there are no parameters, the monitor assumes that the

 

 

 

 

sending software initiated the download and it will not

 

 

 

 

provide a wait period.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The command “rz” is the standard prefix used by the

 

 

 

 

 

 

ZMODEM binary protocol to start a file transfer. A terminal

 

 

 

 

using this command can connect to the D25 Monitor and

 

 

 

 

 

 

simply start sending ZMODEM data without any further user

 

 

 

 

input to the D25.
