ADwin-light-16
-Boot
This option is only available in conjunction with the Ethernet interface, that
means with the
L16-EXT-ENET
or the
L16-EURO-ENET
.
After power-up ADwin-light-16
-Boot automatically starts an application
which has been programmed before. Thus after initializing the application an
operation without PC is possible.
ADwin-light-16
-Boot executes the following steps after power-up:
– Loading the operating system
– Loading the processes generated with the
ADbasic
compiler (max. 10)
– Automatic starting of the process n
o
10. Here you have also to program
the start of all other processes
If you do not wish to work with the bootloader option:
– Boot the system after power-up and the programmed processes are dis-
abled
– After switching off and powering up anew, the bootloader option is
enabled again
By programming the Flash-EEPROMs without processes the system will only
be booted after restart with the file
<ADwin9.btl>.
A process will not be exe-
cuted.
With the installation of the
ADwin
-Developer software from the
ADwin-
CD-
ROM, the program for the bootloader option (ADethflash) is automatically cop-
ied. The version of the CD-ROM should be 3.00.2735 or higher.
Use the program ADethflash for an
ADwin
system with an Ethernet interface.
At standard installation you will find the program in the directory
<C:\ADwin\Tools\Ethernet Interface\...>.
Notes for the bootloader with Ethernet interface can be found in the documen-
tation "
ADwin
Driver Installation".
Together with with an Ethernet-Interface and bootloader you can save and
read up to 2,000 Long or Float values with 32 bit via
ADbasic
process in the
built-in Flash-EEPROM memory. You can find a more detailed description in
the program <
ADethflash.exe
>, if you click on the button "Info about
eeprom support".
