Help with IPAC

<< < (2/4) > >>

Zipper:
Andy Warne at Ultimarc will be around again in a week or two. Send him an e-mail with your problem, because I think there may be a batch of i-pacs which aren't functioning correctly (losing programming after reboot). Not too sure where I heard this.
If it is an i-pac problem, I'm sure Andy will be able to help.

Rick Sigouin:
I'm definitely leaving the jumper on ALT.

Looks like were having the same problem metzer2.  Problem is I'm running from DOS, so I can't do what you did.

I'll send a message to Andy and see.

Thanks for your help guys.  I appreciate it.

Rick Sigouin,

You can do it from DOS, I do it all the time.

Just add the following command to your autoexec.bat

IPACUTIL MYCONFIG.CFG /B /S

Replace MYCONFIG.CFG with the name of your config file.  The /B tells the utility to batch load your config to the IPac instead of going into the programming mode.
The /S sets it to silent mode, this just means it won't display any messages while it loads.  You can leave the /S off if you like.

Thanks Eric,  I'll try that!

metzer2:
Thanks for the tip on the silent switch /S Erik.  I was tired of getting the DOS confirmation box and manually closing it.  I tried putting EXIT in my batch file but it wasn't performing the carriage return to execute it.

btw, I also used the switch to avoid timeout issues.  It takes longer to program but always succeeds.
