• user written description of project (it can be arbitrary text,

usually author of project and some notes)

Note: for projects with serialization turned on

Serialization is read from project file by following procedure:

1. Serialization settings from project are accepted
2. Additional serialization file search is performed. If the file

is found it will be read and serialization settings from the
additional file will be accepted. Additional serialization file
is always associated to the specific project file. When
additional serialization file settings are accepted, project
serialization settings are ignored.


Name of additional serialization file is derived from project file
name by adding extension ".sn" to project file's name.
Additional serialization file is always placed to the directory
"serialization\" into the control program's directory.

Example:

Project file name: my_work.prj
Control program's directory: c:\Program Files\Programmer\

The additional serialization file will be:
c:\Program Files\Programmer\serialization\my_work.prj.sn

Additional serialization file is created and refreshed after
successful device program operation. The only requirement
for creating additional serialization file is load project with
serialization turned on.

Command File / Save project deletes additional serialization
file, if the file exists, associated with currently saved project.
