Is there any way to read the configuration that was pushed to a Soarer's Converter?

I pulled my M112 out and hooked it up to my PC. I cannot find the config file I used to set the M122 up in the first place. Is there any way to read the current config off the converter itself and dump it to a text file or sc file?

Looks like I posted my config on here in my M122 thread. So, a simple cut and paste and I'm good to go.

Indeed you can. Along with the soarer's firmware download, you should also have some utilities that came with the firmware.

Here's a description of the tools from the documentation:
So you first want to use scrd to get the binary off the board. Then use scdis to convert it to text so you can edit it, reflash, etc.Tool
Descriptionscas - Assembles one or more config text files to a config binary file
scdis - Dissassembles a config binary file to a config text file
scwr - Writes a config binary file to the converter
scrd - Reads a config binary file from the converter
scboot - Causes the converter to jump to the bootloader v1.0+
scinfo - Displays converter's version and memory information v1.0+
scaswr - Combination of scas and scwr (Windows only) v1.1+
Let me know if you need help with any of those steps.

Thanks! In my quarantined boredom, I decided to pull the M122 out and try to customize it with the Soarer's converter.
