Batch File Command Rules and Descriptions

A-4

Operating the Programmer in Batch Mode

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.
