1.5 Programming Algorithms and Licenses
FR3070A includes programming algorithms for several devices. In order to
program a specific device, however, a specific license file for that device
must be purchased.
i
Note:
FR3070A comes already preinstalled with the
license(s) you specified at the moment of purchase. You can
purchase additional licenses at any future moment.
Programming algorithms and license files are stored in the SD card (see the
FlashRunner Programmer’s Manual for more information).
1.5.1
Installing New Licenses
When you buy an additional license for a specific device, you will get:
An algorithm file (.alg);
A license file (.lic);
A device-specific script example (.frs).
The .alg file contains the actual programming algorithm for the requested
device (and several other devices of the same family).
The .lic file contains an unlocking code that will let you use the programming
algorithm. A license file enables the use of a specific programming algorithm
on a specific FR3070A instrument (licenses are serial number specific).
The script file contains an example of script to use as a starting point for your
specific programming needs (for more information on scripts, see the
FlashRunner Programmer’s Manual).
To install the new license, do the following (for each programming module):
1. Copy the
.alg
file into the
\ALGOS
directory of the SD card (if an
.alg file with the same name already exists, overwrite it);
2. Copy the
.lic
file into the
\LICENSES
directory of the SD card.
