Verify
The function compares the content of the buffer to that of the chip. If there is any discrepancy, verify failure message and the address where it started failing will be displayed in the Message window. For PROM or MCU devices, verification of range between start and end addresses (specified by you) is available.
Blank Check
The function checks if the device is in blank state. For a ROM or MCU, checking of a range between a start and end address (specified by you) is possible.
Data Compare
The function compares Buffer and Chip contents and for any discrepancy it finds data table is generated and store in the BIN directory in the name of the device.cmp. For example, if the device is AMD 27256, the file name will be 27256.CMP.
Auto
The function executes series of operations in sequence, which should help with repeat operation. Blank check, Program, and Verify could be included in the function. List of the functions may be put together using the Edit Auto menu.
For GAL devices it executes the Erase function at the beginning and sets the security bits at the end.
Security
The function applies to PLDs and MCUs equipped with security function. If the security is set, the data programmed into a chip will not be read correctly.
Note: Lock and Protect are also names used for the same purpose.
Encryption
The function applies only to some MCU chips with the feature. This will program the content of the encryption table onto the encryption array of the chip. The content of the encryption table can be loaded, edited and saved. Once encryption is completed, the data in the main buffer will be the
Message
Result of the operation and any error message is displayed in the message area.
Environment
It displays the selected manufacturer (MFR), device name (Device), checksum (Checksum) for HEX files, and blow count (Blow Count) for JED file, etc.
Chip Start
Input an address of the chip where you would like a selected function of downloading or uploading to start. This is normally set to zero.
