SECTION 5 " Software Download

As long as the StartTime has not counted to zero on its own, the timer stops and the software download process halts. When the timer does count down to zero, it uses the ServerIpAddress value and the ScriptFilename value to get the script file. If either of these is not set, an error is noted in the status variable and the software download process is aborted.

The variable’s format is:

File>sdvars set starttime <dd:hh:mm:ss>

EXAMPLE: This command line sets the download start time to begin in 5 minutes:

File>sdvars set starttime 00:00:05:00

Status

Status is a read-only variable set by the software download mechanism to indicate whether the download completed successfully.

CheckPoint

CheckPoint is a numeric variable that is used to check on the progress of an active download in an access point. By setting CheckPoint to a different value after each command in the script file, you can read the value to determine how far the access point progressed through the script file. You can also test for failure if a script file aborts. The variable’s format is:

File>sdvars set checkpoint <value>

For example, consider the following script file commands:
