5. New bay type activation

Once upload process is completed it is possible to use new bay type, customized bay type is always
with number = 999.

Following 'OK' device restarts and is ready to operate with new customized bay type.

Notes:
• It is a good habit to activate new bay type definition with 'empty' device, after cold restart.
• If BTC file has got any mistake – configuration would be rejected. Two the most common mistakes
are:
o bay type use I/O elements not available into actual hardware set.
o bay type use I/O elements already occupied by active signal assignment
• The same way user can upload another '.hex' files which could be customized character set or
macros.
