Logging and Reporting
Reporting
TeSys Programmer supports report generation to help track job site progress and tracking. The report file can be stored locally based on the location defined in the Advanced Settings. A new report file is created when the size increases above 1 MB, while preserving all old records.
Use Clear Report to clear all history reports.
Logging
TeSys Programmer supports simple logging of console/debug messages in text format. A new log file is created when the size increases above 5 MB, while preserving all old records. The Advance Settings screen provides an option for the user to open the log file and change the file location.
The user can select the type of messages to receive in the log file. The choices are All, Debug, Info, and Error.
Firmware Upgrade Settings
Optimized Mode (default)
Compares the Source Firmware Package and the Target Device Firmware Package (devices and network) and upgrades the devices to the selected source firmware by upgrading only the microcontroller that does not match the package.
Overwrite Mode
Upgrades the device and network firmware to the source firmware version, regardless of the existing version.
Backup and Restore Feature
TeSys Programmer allows you to backup the LTMR configuration before starting the firmware update and restore the configuration at the end of the update over the HMI port using Modbus serial communication. To use this feature select "Enabled" in the Backup and Restore Settings.
When Enabled, all Configuration Registers and Custom Logic will be backed up and then restored after the firmware upgrade.
When Disabled, the device will be reset to factory default settings.
