Operation is taking place
This light coding applies for all operations.
3. When a file has been loaded into the Flash memory and the EEPROM memory if required, the
programmer is ready for programming operations. EEPROM data (or Flash data) can be
typed directly into the buffer windows instead of being loaded from a file. The data can be
entered as ASCII characters or as Hexadecimal numbers.
Programming
The programming operations are listed in the
Device
menu. The programmer must be configured
before programming can be undertaken, and for the
Program
function, data must be loaded into
the buffer windows
The options listed in the
Device
menu are:

Description
Erase
The device is erased and code and EEPROM memories will be empty - blank
value is FFh. All Fuse settings will be cleared to default values (see data
book/CD-ROM for device specific fuse information).
Program
Choose Flash, EEPROM, Lock bits or Fuses on the fly-out menu. If Flash or
EEPROM is chosen, then that part of the device is programmed with the
contents of the Flash or EEPROM buffer window respectively. If lock bits are
selected, the security bits are programmed according to the Security Settings
drop-down list described above. If Fuses are chosen, a dialog box appears with
the fuses available on the selected device. Set the fuses to your requirements.
Read
If Flash or EEPROM are selected, the contents of the device memory selected is
uploaded and displayed in the relevant buffer window. If the device is blank,
then all locations will read as FFh. If the security (lock) bits are set, then the
data will be invalid. Selecting Fuses displays the status of the fuses on the
selected device in a list box.
Verify
The contents of the selected memory area (Flash or EEPROM) on the device is
compared with the contents of the equivalent buffer window and any differences
are shown in Red - correct values are shown in Green.
Fuses
Only available with some devices. Used for such functions as clock selection,
etc. You can read or write to the fuses of the selected device.
Run
Converts the board operation to run mode. The operating voltage selected
earlier comes into effect.
Auto Program
will run all, or a selection of the above options.
Select
Auto-Program Options
to set the required programming operations. A list of operations is
displayed:
