TMCL Program Downloader ======================= What is this? ------------- The TMCL downloader is a PC software that can be used for downloading a binary TMCL program file into a module. One could say that it is the "Download" function of the TMCL IDE in a program of its own. The idea behind this is to have a simple utility that can be given to customers who will then be able to update their applications, without the need to give them the TMCL source code and without the need for them to use the TMCL IDE for this purpose. How to use it ------------- For using this program, a TMCL binary file is needed. Such a file can be generated by the TMCL IDE. Check the option "Generate binary file" in the "Assembler" tab of the "Options" dialogue (please see also chapter of the TMCL manual). Just start the program, select that file, the COM port and the module address that is to be used and then click "Start". The TMCL program will then be downloaded into the module, just like the "Download" function in the TMCL IDE. At the moment, this program only supports serial ports as interface to the modules.
