Texas Instruments TMS370 manual Nonexecutable Batch Commands, Defaultable Commands

Batch File Command Rules and Descriptions

A.2.2 Nonexecutable Batch Commands

Nonexecutable commands do not invoke any action. They set certain pro- gramming parameters and define the device type. These commands can be classified as defaultable or nondefaultable. Defaultable commands are not re- quired in the configuration/batch file; the commands have their own default values if not specified. Nondefaultable commands must be specified in the configuration/batch file because no default is provided.

Defaultable Commands
DT = device table file	Specify a device table file to be loaded as
	the current device table. The default is the
	manufacturer-supplied file device.tbl.
E = error output file	Direct the verification output (if any) to
	error output file. The default is the COFF
	file name specified with its extension re-
	placed by .err. For example, the COFF file
	a.out will have a default error file a.err.
	(This command is ignored when you are
	using the gang programmer.)
O = COFF file	Specify the COFF file that will supply the
	data used to program/verify the device. If
	a COFF file is specified in the invocation
	command line, it takes precedence over
	the configuration/batch file.
PO = comm port number	Specify the PC communication port to be
	used. The default is port #1. The choices
	for comm port number are 1, or 2.

Nondefaultable Command

DV = device family @ device first name

This command specifies the device type to be used for the program/verify op- erations. The choices for device family are TMS370, 2732, 2764, 27128, 27256, or 7742. The device first name is any name defined in the current de- vice table.

The device type must be specified before any action can be performed on the device.
