Programming the Controller

1. Turn Power on - the red LED will be on solid when new and has not been programmed or flashing if already has an application
2. Generate the application in ACE Software
3. Push the application from ACE Software to the controller - Red, Blue, and White LED's will be on solid
4. Red LED will resume flashing when complete
