Unit Receive Mode
WAITING FOR DOWNLOAD
Initiate the download by executing the proper command(s)
in the download tool running on the host computer. The
data transfer operation starts, and the status messages
are displayed on the terminal screen.
The progress of the download is indicated by a series of
ten asterisks (each asterisk indicates that 10% of the
download is complete). When the last asterisk is
displayed, the download is complete.
To stop the download operation, press the CANCEL key.
The terminal restarts automatically.

**VERIFYING FILES**
CHECK CERTIFICATE
(FILENAME.CRT)
**AUTHENTIC**
or
--- FAILED ---
When the download is complete, the terminal restarts
automatically. The file authentication module on the
receiving terminal begins to check for new certificate
(*.crt) and signature (*.p7s) files included in the
download. These special files then process one at a time;
certificates process first, then signature files.
When the file authentication module is invoked, the status
display informs you of the progress of the file
authentication process. If file authentication succeeds for a
specific certificate, the “
AUTHENTIC” message is displayed
directly below the certificate filename. If file authentication
fails for a specific certificate, the “
FAILED” message is
displayed for five seconds below the filename and the
terminal beeps three times, allowing you to note which
certificate failed to authenticate.
The authentication process then continues to the next
certificate until all new certificates are authenticated.
