15.2 Connection
If FDT is connecting to a device that supports the locking feature it will check the current locked state of
each erase block that has a corresponding lock bit (as defined in the project configuration file). Then,
depending on the current connection setting (selectable from the Locking Dialog - see section 15.3), FDT
will do one of three things:
1. Automatically Disable Locks
FDT will automatically disable the locking of device on connection. This will allow all blocks on the
device to be written or erased - whether they are currently locked or not.
2. Query User
FDT will ask the user what to do about the locking of device on connection:
Figure 15-3 Query on Connection Message
If "Yes" is clicked, then the master lock bit will be disabled, as in (1). If "No" is selected th en the locking
settings will be left alone, as below.
3. Do Nothing
FDT will not change any of the current lock settings on the device. Subsequently, FDT will abort the
operation if an attempt is made to write or erase to a locked block.
