Command line parameters
Program PG4UWMC supports following command line parameters:
/prj:<file_name>
Loads project file. Parameter <file_name> means full or relative project file path and name.
There is also available to make Load project operation from command line by entering project
file name without prefix /prj:...
Example:
pg4uwmc.exe c:\projects\myproject.eprj
Makes load project file "c:\projects\myproject.eprj".
/autoconnectsites
The command forces PG4UWMC to connect programmer Sites (start control program
PG4UW for each Site) during start of PG4UWMC, for all Site-s that were used, when
PG4UWMC was recently closed. There is also equivalent option "Auto-connect Sites"
available in "Settings" dialog of PG4UWMC.
Programmers supported by PG4UWMC
The list of currently supported programmers can be displayed in PG4UWMC by menu Help |
Supported programmers. Generally, supported programmers in PG4UWMC are 48-pin
universal programmers with USB interface. Also all of our USB connected multiprogramming
systems are supported. PG4UWMC can handle from 1 to 8 programmer sites. One
programmer site means one ZIF socket module.
Troubleshooting
Serial numbers
For successful using of multiply programmers, correct serial numbers must be specified for
each used programmer in panel Serial numbers. If there is empty field for serial number,
application PG4UW for the programmer Site won't start.
When PG4UWMC application is searching for connected programmers in "Search for
programmers" dialog, serial numbers of programmers are detected automatically. User does
not need (and can not) specify serial numbers by himself.
Communication error(s) while searching for programmers
If some kind of communication error(s) occurs, please close all PG4UW applications and
PG4UWMC and then start PG4UWMC and click button "Connect programmers" to start
PG4UW applications for each Site and connect programmers.
All programmers are connected correctly but unstable working
If communication with programmers is lost randomly during device operation (for example
device programming), please close other programs, especially programs which consumes
large amount of system resources (multimedia, CAD, graphic applications and so on).
Note: We also recommend to use computer USB ports placed on back side of computer and
directly connected to motherboard, because computer USB ports connected to computer
motherboard indirectly - via cable, may be unreliable when using high speed USB 2.0 transfer
modes. This recommendation is valid not only for programmers, but also for other devices.
