Device / Program
Program command will enable you to place new data from the memory buffer into the target device. The BUSY GREEN led will be blinking during programming. Make sure the device is correctly inserted into the ZIF socket and the latch is down. Then check the buffer device address range before you start. The values will default to the size of the device.
NOTE: <MOTOROLA MICROCONTROLLERS>
The window of windowed devices must be covered with an opaque label during operation at all times.
NOTE: For all DEVICE/FUNCTION operations, the ERROR YELLOW LED, located at the bottom of the ZIF socket is used to indicate the status of the complete operation. It will turn on if an error has occurred; otherwise it will remain off.
Memory device
The target device must be blank checked unless the part is electrically erasable. Although most of EEPROMs and Flash Memory devices have the ERASE function in the menu, some EEPROMs such as AT28CXXX or AT29CXXX don’t have the ERASE function. Note that EEPROMs without the ERASE function are automatically erased before programming.
Programmable Logic Device operation
After programming is complete, verification should be performed according to the semiconductor manufacturer's specifications. In order to test vectors, a vector test should be performed (See vector test under the TEST menu). Finally, the part may be secured so that its content can no longer be examined or modified. The security function will not execute if the device fails to verify or pass the vector test properly.
