All of Opticon's Demo Applications for the OPL9712 support downloading of data through Opticon's proprietary protocol called NetO (Net-Oh). As with all communications there are two sides. In this case these are the terminal (the OPL9712) and the host (usually a PC). This section covers setting up and using such a communication channel. |

NetO32 is now in 'Polling' mode. Note that you should see the yellow light on the cradle blinking steadily. This means it will sit here indefinitely sending queries to the cradle and waiting for the right response to start a download. Multiple downloads can all be done without ever closing NetO32. When you are done using NetO32 simply select 'Protocol' > 'Stop' and NetO32 will discontinue polling mode. The application can then be closed. |

By default, the OPL-9712 is set up to send data wirelessly to your computer. We will need to set it to communicate using the cradle before proceeding. To do that, follow these steps:
|
|
|

* From the main menu, select 'System menu.' (use the arrow keys to move up and down, and the trigger to select an option.)
|
|
|

* From the system menu, select 'Communicate,' and then 'Interface.' In the Interface menu, select the 'Cradle' option(press trigger to select it). A check mark should appear under it, indicating that 'Cradle' is selected.
