RTCUProg 5.01

RTCUProg is a stand-alone programming and set-up tool that can be used as a "light-weight" alternative to the RTCU IDE in cases where the advanced development features in the RTCU IDE are not required. The RTCUProg utility is therefore ideal for non-technical people that must only perform maintenance tasks.

RTCUProg is now available in version 5.01 with the following new features:

  • Adjust unit clock
  • Set unit password
  • Software features upgrade functionality (fex. MAX upgrade, GPRS enable, etc.)
  • Set unit GPRS parameters: TCP/IP and Gateway settings
  • Enhanced handling of timeout / no answer situation during a CSD (datacall) session
  • Enhanced stability of Background update over serial with heavy loaded unit
     

RTCU Communication Deployment Package 5.00


The RTCU Communication Deployment Package forms the basis for all communication with the RTCU Units using Cable, CSD (data call) or GPRS.
The functionality included in the package is extremely comprehensive and well tested as this package is actually used in all Logic IO products, including the RTCU IDE and RTCUProg programs.

Available for download is the latest "RTCU Communication Deployment Package" version 5.00 with the following enhancements:

  • Read/Write support to XFLASH Persistent Memory
  • Function to read data from datalogger according to tag value

  • Set/Get Unit Gateway settings
  • Functionality to Read and Clear the fault log in unit
  • Software features upgrade functionality (fex. MAX upgrade, GPRS enable, etc.)
  • Enhanced handling of timeout / no answer situation during a CSD (datacall)
