The Auto-erase function, when selected, will begin each Program function by bulk erasing the
program memory area of the target processor.
The Verify function will read the entire contents of the target processor and verify the program
data read against the HEX file. The configuration data read from the target processor is verified
by comparing it against the configuration settings in the GUI (Graphical User Interface). The
comparison is made in this way since the user has the ability to override the HEX file’s
configuration settings with the settings in the GUI.
The Read function will read the entire contents of the target processor and place all of its
program, EEPROM, ID and configuration data in a dialog window that is launched
automatically.
Quick Start Guide
This guide requires the use of a Windows 98/2000 PC that is equipped with a USB port.
1.
Download the DLL version of the device drivers from either dlpdesign.com or ftdichip.com.
Unzip the drivers onto a blank floppy disk or into a folder on the hard drive.
2.
Download the serializer program from either dlpdesign.com or ftdichip.com. Unzip the
package and place it in a folder on the hard drive.
3.
Download the Windows download application from dlpdesign.com, unzip the program file
and place it either on the desktop or in a folder on the hard drive.
4.
Download the example software (DLPIO16X) from dlpdesign.com, unzip the package and
place it in a folder.
5.
Connect the DLP-IO16 board to the PC via a standard, 6-foot USB cable. When prompted,
select the folder where the DLL version of the device drivers were stored in step one.
Windows will then complete the installation of the device drivers for the DLP-IO16 board.
Reboot the PC if prompted to do so.
6.
Run the serializer program and write the VID (0403), PID (6001), a description string of your
choosing and serial number as instructed in the instruction manual (PDF) that was
downloaded with the serializer software. Terminate the serializer program and disconnect
the DLP-IO16 board from the USB cable. Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the DLP-IO16
board. Reboot the PC if instructed to do so.
7.
Run the download application that was saved to the hard drive in step 3. Select the Open by
description radio button and click on Search. In the dialog window select the description
