Device / Read
Read the data in the source device mounted on the ZIF socket into the buffer for examination.
The checksum will be displayed on the checksum line. The buffer may be edited, saved to a disk, or used to duplicate the chip.
CAUTION: Reading the device into the buffer destroys the buffer contents through the specified range. Make sure everything in the buffer that is needed has been saved.
PLD test vectors are not stored in a logic device; therefore, they cannot be read.
The test vector buffer will be empty after reading the PLD.
NOTE: Devices that have been secured cannot be read properly. Secured chips may appear all blank, fully programmed, or scrambled.
Device / Verify
Assure that data in the device matches data in the memory buffer. If your device has the security fuse blown, a verification error is detected. The verify operation requires that the exact data pattern or file that was used to program the device be resident in the memory buffer.
