3.2 Programmer Control Mechanisms
The programmer can be controlled from EQTools in
‘EDS - Development mode’
or using the
programmer keypad / Status LEDs. An overview of the various control mechanisms is given below.
EQTools – EDS Development Mode
In EDS mode, the programmer can be fully controlled from the PC. It is possible to read / write a
target IC, program configuration fuses / security fuses etc via a graphical GUI. This mode is suitable
for development, programmer configuration and small-volume production applications.
Standalone Operation (Keypad)
This indicates that the programmer can be operated without being connected to a PC or other control
system. In this case an operator can control programming operations using a keypad on the
programmer.
