Before using the programmer to program some device, please make sure the
programmer is installed properly, and communication is established successfully
between PC and programmer.
Some SMD devices need adapters. Please make sure that
they are available for the
devices
. Insert the chip correctly (Device information for SMD and non-standard
insertion will appear on the screen when the device is selected, if device information
does not appears, check if chip insertion orientation follows the guideline of the
standard chip insertion markings near the pin-driver socket).
3.2.2 Select the device
Click the "Device Selection" button or click the "Device" from the main menu and
select the device. The
“
Device Selection
”
window will appear. First select the Device
Type (such as E/EPROM, BPROM, SRAM, PLD, or MCU), then select the
Manufacturer and Device Name in the window. Click OK button or double-click the
device to confirm your selection. You can also enter the device part name in the
“
Search
”
box so that the selection is narrowed and can be done quickly.
3.2.3 Load data into Buffer
The process of programming a chip is the process in which the buffer data are written
into the storage units of the chip according to the requirements of the manufacturer.
Data can be loaded into the buffer in the following two ways:
1) By reading data from a file
You may load a file into the buffer by clicking
“
File
”
in the main menu and selecting
‘
Load File
’.
The dialog box for loading a file appears after the
‘
Load File
’
is selected.
In the dialog box, select the folder and file name you wish to load. Then select the
appropriate file type in the
‘
File Type
’
dialog box appearing subsequently. After
confirmation, the selected data will be loaded into the memory buffer. Please go to
the Buffer edit window and check if the data is loaded correctly.
Note: Some Hex or S record files contain non-zero file start address. In this case, the
start address should be entered in the File Address box.
2) Reading data from master chip:
Insert the master chip in the socket and make the selection of the device to read from.
In the screen of
“
Function items for operations on the devices
”, click Read
to copy
the data from the master chip into the memory buffer. At this point, you may go to the
memory buffer edit screen and check if the data is loaded correctly. The data may be
saved to a disk for later use.
Note:
S
ome devices have no read function or are encrypted, under this condition data
cannot be read
from.
3.2.4 Set Options
1) Operation Option, including:
Insertion Test option. Checking the pin contact before programming.
Device ID Check option. Checking the device
’s ID
before programming.
