Using of Multi-project for running of device operation
Typical usage of existing Multi-project file has following order.
For single programming in PG4UW:
Load created Multi-project by File / Load project menu command in PG4UW main
window or Load multi-prj button in Multi-project Wizard.
After successful loading of Multi-project, Multi-project Wizard is opened automatically.
In Wizard run wished device operation using one of available device operation buttons
(Blank, Verify, Program, Erase), mostly Program device operation is used. Selected
device operation is executed as sequence of sub-project loading and consequent sub-
device programming for each sub-device defined in Multi-project. And this is main
purpose of Multi-project - to automate running sequence of device operations for each
chip of multichip device. The side effect of this concept is, that device progress indicators
are reset to 0 at beginning of each sub-device operation, so it looks like progress bar is
"jumping" to 0 few times while multichip operation is running.
After programming of all sub-devices is completed (or error occurs), standard "Repeat"
dialog is displayed. Programmed device can be removed from programmer socket and
new device can be inserted. Pressing Yes button in dialog Repeat or YES! button on
programmer *, will start multichip device programming sequence again.
* If Automatic YES! function is turned on, no Repeat dialog is displayed after device
operation is completed, but Automatic YES! window will appear. The window shows
status of programmer socket and notice about removing of programmed device and
inserting of new device to programmer socket. After inserting of new device, multichip
device operation sequence will start automatically. For more details about Automatic YES!
function, please take a look at Programmer / Automatic YES!.
For multiprogramming by PG4UWMC or standalone programmer:
Load Multi-project by Load project menu.
Run wished device operation by one of available device operation buttons (Blank, Verify,
Program, Erase), mostly Program device operation is used. Selected device operation is
executed as sequence of sub-project loading and consequent sub-device programming
for each sub-device defined in Multi-project. The side effect of this concept is, that device
progress indicators are reset to 0 at beginning of each sub-device operation, so it looks
like progress bar is "jumping" to 0 few times while multichip operation is running.
After programming of all sub-devices is completed (or error occurs), information with
result of device operation is displayed in PG4UWMC. Programmed device can be
removed from programmer socket and new device can be inserted. Pressing operation
button for the Site or YES! button on programmer Site *, will start multichip device
programming sequence again.
* If Automatic YES! function is turned on, sequence of device operation is started again
automatically after removing of programmed and inserting of new device to programmer
socket. For more details about Automatic YES! function, please take a look at
Programmer / Automatic YES!.
Notes:
serialization is not supported in multiprogramming mode (only single programming
supports serialization)
count-down function is not supported now
