Auto : TopMax / ChipMax will select a valid parallel port as the default address in your PC.

LPT1 : The parallel port 378 in HEX will be chosen for TopMax/ChipMax address.

LPT2 : The parallel port 3BC in HEX will be chosen for TopMax/ChipMax address.

LPT3 : The parallel port 278 in HEX will be chosen for TopMax/ChipMax address.

Port Speed: Because the ISA-bus clock speed is not as fast as that of the CPU, we designed this option to facilitate the problem caused when using a fast computer such as Pentium 90/133/166 MHz The default value is 0. For computers that have CPU speed of greater or equal to 133 MHz, we recommend that you set the Port Delay to 40. In most cases, this option will help to solve the communication problem between your PC and TopMax / ChipMax).

NOTE: TopMax / ChipMax power switch should be ON. The Parallel cable is connected between TopMax / ChipMax and your PC parallel port. Make sure that the shields on each side of the cable are locked. See section 6 Troubleshooting if you are having difficulty with installation and communication.

Config Option / USB Option (USB programmer)

USB option / Enable START button

This option allows you to use a start key in USB programmer hardware rather than PC control software. Once you check in the option and choose a master socket, the socket location will be selected as a master socket without opening the gang program mode (separate menu screen). So you can use the multiple programmer, ProMax-4G (8G), as a single-socked programmer. We can see the socket number in either beginning menu screen or gang program mode menu.
