How to Upload Collected Data
Using the M5100 Keyboard Wedge
We assume that you followed the previous steps in this section, connecting the M5100 Keyboard
Wedge and the interface cable, you are now ready to upload the collected data. The cursor must be in
the active application for you to upload your data. You can use Notepad for testing your M5000 PDT
program settings.
1. In the Main Menu of the
M5000 PDT, choose Communications, select Send, Data Files.
2. From your PC, select the M5000 Programmer, select Communications, Send and then select the
collected data file. Your data then begins transmitting into your application and appears as
keyboard data.
3. Once your file is successfully transmitted and a key is pressed you are prompted with a
confirmation message to Erase Uploaded Data Files? (No), if desired, press Y or toggle an arrow
