Downloading the 2510 download file

2510 download dialog

This dialog is used to download data to the 2510. Make sure to select the right COM port and follow

the on screen instructions to download the data. If the access to comport fails (error accessing COM

port) it may be that another LightJockey device is currently configured to the same COM port (such as

a 2532 direct access or 2518 controller in RS232 mode). Use the hardware setup dialog to disable the

configured device, then, if necessary re-configure the COM port once the data has been downloaded.

The download procedure consists of a data download part and a verify part. The communication from

the PC to the 2510 is one-way only so the LightJockey cannot directly verify the download, or indeed,

even if a 2510 is connected at all. The download is automatically verified by downloading the data to

the 2510 a second time and letting the 2510 compare with the stored data. To check that the

download has been performed correctly check the result after download in the 2510 display. If the

downloaded data verifies correctly the 2510 will display [rd], if there was an error during download or

during verify the 2510 will flash [er] and [xx] where xx indicates an error code.

Error codes 02 and 03 download failed, but the contents of 2510 has not been changed.

Other error codes download failed, and the contents of 2510 has been compromised.

After a successful download, the 2510 must be switched off then on again to start the playback.

Using the 2510 for playback

Once programs have been downloaded to the 2510, it must be switched off and on again to initialize

correctly.

2510 Startup

During startup the 2510 flashes [25][10], then the firmware revision [X.X], then the download host

application ([LJ] for LightJockey). Finally, the number of downloaded sequences is flashed 3 times. If

a dedicated startup sequence has been setup, the 2510 will start running this sequence while flashing

[SU] in the display. The startup sequence may be aborted at any time by pressing any key on the

2510. If no startup sequence has been assigned or after the startup sequence has finished, the 2510

will start to playback the downloaded sequences in the default 2510 Startup Mode selected in the

2510 list dialog.
