The following solution is for MACRO peripherals which can still be powered up and communicated to through USB/Serial port and it is for saving their configuration as a file on a PC and restoring it to another device.

If you can power up the device and connect it to a PC, through serial or USB port then we can transfer the settings from one MACRO peripheral to another one. If you connect using USB port on the peripheral, then you need to use the following driver.

Connect a USB cable between the MACRO Peripheral and your PC. The USB device on the MACRO peripheral is a Serial Com RS-232 emulator and it should show up under device manage of windows as a Com port. Check the device manage to make sure you know the Com port number.

If your computer doesn't have the correct drivers for the USB<->Serial device, you can try downloading the latest driver from here. I have included a copy of the file here too.

Once the Com port is up and running, download and install the MACRO maintenance program:

(NOTE: This program is not a product and should be used as is and there is no support or update for it)


Once installed, run the program and select the proper COM port and follow the on screen instructions to save/restore the settings on your MACRO peripheral.

Hi Sina,
Thank you so much, we use the fiber to connect two ACC-68M and one PMAC2-PCI ULTRA-LINE board. Is it same way to initialize the ACC-68M as your instruction ? Thanks

Hi kmtwds,

Yes. This program can be used with Geo MACRO, ACC-24M2A, ACC-65M, ACC-68M, ACC-14M and ACC-82M, MACRO8 and MACRO16 CPUs.
