13 ADwin-Gold II-Boot
ADwin-Gold II-Boot starts a previously programmed application automatically after
power-up. After installation of this application an operation without computer is possi-
ble.
With ADwin-Gold II-Boot the following steps are executed after power-up:
–
Loading the operating system
–
Loading of the compiled processes, compiled by
ADbasic
(max. 10).
–
Automatic starting of the process no. 10. Here you have also to program the start
of all other processes.
Disable boot loader
If you do not wish to work with the boot loader option:
–
Boot the system after power-up and the previously saved processes are dis-
abled.
–
After switching off and powering up anew, the boot loader option is enabled
again.
By programming the Flash-EEPROM without processes and only with the file
<ADwin11.btl>
the system will only be booted after power-up, but no processes can
be executed.
With the installation of the
ADwin
