CHAPTER 6 PG-FP4 OPERATION IN STANDALONE MODE
The PG-FP4 has a standalone mode in which the PG-FP4 itself can execute the Erase, Program, and Verify
commands without a host. This mode is useful for using the PG-FP4 on the production line during mass production
and for upgrading the version at a customer’s site.
In the standalone mode, the PG-FP4 uses the flash programming parameters stored in the internal EEPROM area.
Therefore, a new device cannot be selected for flash programming, nor can the programming parameters be changed.
Programming can be done only in the environment set last in the GUI software operation mode.
In the standalone mode, select and execute the command menu by using the control buttons “Next”, “Enter”, and
“Cancel” at the upper part of the main unit of the PG-FP4.
The command menu is displayed on the message display, and the result of executing a command is indicated by
the message display and status LED.
The command menu consists of two levels of menus: a main menu and sub-menu.
The Next button is used to display the next menu of the same level. The Enter button selects or executes the menu
item currently displayed. The Cancel button aborts the command under execution and restores the previous menu
level.
