The original *.scr file remains intact, and the compiled file is given the same name, but with a *.hex extension. It is this *.hex file that is downloaded into the portable.

When compilation is complete, the PPGXFER window opens, displaying the message Initiating Download.

If a connection between the PC and the PDT is successfully established, the window shows further messages as the compiled *.hex file is loaded into the portable. Refer to What Happens During a Download? on page 91 for more information.
