interrupted.
Flowchart of device programming with custom-generator serialization
When Custom-generator serialization is used, it means, that before each device programming
is started, serialization engine calls serialization generator executable, to
generate serial .dat file. PG4UW serialization engine manages proper
command line parameters for calling of serialization generator. The data
from .dat file are immediately read to internal programmer buffer and used
as data for programming device. Also next serial number information
(record T02) is remembered in PG4UW.
Typical flowchart of device programming is following:
1. Start of programming batch
2. Device insertion test
3. Serialization sequence, consists from four steps:
call of serialization generator with proper command line parameters to generate
serialization .dat file
waiting for serialization .dat file to be available
reading of serialization .dat file data to programmer buffer (the data will be used for
programming device)
delete serialization .dat file after reading of data from it
4. Device programming
5. Device verification
6. Operation result check.
This is fully managed by PG4UW control program. Serialization generator does not
have to do any operation according to operation result. Control program will call
serialization generator with required command line parameters.
OK - PG4UW makes request for next serial number. Next serial number was read from
.dat file in step 3. Call of serialization generator will have next serial number specified in
command line.
ERROR - PG4UW does not make request for new serial number. Recent serial number
will be used for next device. Next call of serialization generator will have recent serial
number specified in command line.
7. Repeat programming with next device?
Yes goto step 2.
No continue at step 8.
8. End of programming batch
Notes:
In case of error programming result, recent serial number is used, but generator will be
called at step 3. anyway, even if the same number is used as for previously
programmed device.
If error of serialization .dat file is detected, program PG4UW reports serialization error
and stops continuing of programming batch immediately.
Device / Device options / Statistics
Statistics gives the information about actual count of device operations, which were
proceeded on selected type device. If one device is corresponding to one device operation,
e.g. programming, the number of device operations will be equal to number of programmed
devices.
