Programming a Device From PC Memory
3-16
Operating in the Display Window
Once the programming begins, it proceeds packet by packet in180-byte seg-
ments. Before a packet is programmed, the programmer verifies that the desti-
nation device address is inside the valid address ranges defined for the current
device type. If the address is not inside the range, the following error message
is displayed.
Address out of range, Press any key
During the programming process, the programmer displays a status message
on the bottom line to indicate the address currently being programmed.
Programming at address 7000 (hit ESC key to abort)
This message is updated when the programmer starts programming the next
packet.
If, for some reason, you want to terminate the programming process before it
is completed, press the
key to abort the process and return to the display
command menu.
If an error is detected during programming, the red LED below that device is
turned on. At the end of the programming process, only those devices whose
LED is off have been programmed properly. If you want to examine the loca-
tions that failed to program, you must create an error file by using the verify
command found in Section 3.13 on page 3-22.
When the programming process is complete, the programmer beeps, and the
following message is displayed:
Programming Complete, Program another device?(y/n)
If you want to program more devices using the same parameter values,
replace the device(s) in the programmer with the new one(s), and press
.
