2.4.5 To Access the Flash MemoryThis section describes the access method to the flash memory.
■Access to Flash Memory
In the emulator debugger (MB2100-01), the direct operation of the content of the flash memory can be
done as well as RAM area.
■What is flash memory synchronization?
When data is written into the flash memory, the data is stored temporarily. The stored data and the contents
of flash memory must be matched.
The matching operation is referred to as "flash memory synchronization" (or, "synchronization of flash
memory").
There are two types of flash memory synchronization:
• Flash memory synchronization [Flash -> Debugger]
Updates the contents of the flash memory.
• Flash memory synchronization [Debbuger -> Flash]
Updates the stored data on the flash memory.
■Methods of flash memory synchronization
Flash memory synchronization can be performed in either a manual or automatic method.
●Flash memory synchronization [Flash -> Debugger]
• Manual flash memory synchronization
Select the [Environment] - [Flash area control] menu. For details, refer to "4.7.4 Flash area control" in
"SOFTUNE Workbench Operation Manual".
• Automatic flash memory synchronization
Flash memory synchronization is automatically performed if the target flash memory area is updated
when carrying out one of the following operations.
- Load the following files.
Target file (Load module file)
Binary file
- Save the following files (specify name).
