Programming a Device From PC Memory

Once the programming begins, it proceeds packet by packet in180-byte seg- ments. Before a packet is programmed, the programmer verifies that the desti- nation device address is inside the valid address ranges defined for the current device type. If the address is not inside the range, the following error message is displayed.

Address out of range, Press any key

During the programming process, the programmer displays a status message on the bottom line to indicate the address currently being programmed.

Programming at address 7000 (hit ESC key to abort)

This message is updated when the programmer starts programming the next packet.

If, for some reason, you want to terminate the programming process before it

is completed, press the key to abort the process and return to the display command menu.

If an error is detected during programming, the red LED below that device is turned on. At the end of the programming process, only those devices whose LED is off have been programmed properly. If you want to examine the loca- tions that failed to program, you must create an error file by using the verify command found in Section 3.13 on page 3-22.

When the programming process is complete, the programmer beeps, and the following message is displayed:

Programming Complete, Program another device?(y/n)

If you want to program more devices using the same parameter values, replace the device(s) in the programmer with the new one(s), and press .
