Owner manual

The standard dialog Load project contains additional window - Project description - placed
at the bottom of dialog. This window is for displaying information about currently selected
project file in dialog Load project.
Project information consists of:
• manufacturer and name of the first device selected in the project
• date and time of project creation
• 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.
File / Save project
This option is used for saving project file, which contains settings of device configuration and
buffer data saved. Data saved to project file can be restored anytime by menu command File
/ Load project.

box is only for information and is not writable.
Description of project being saved

selected device, program mode, date and time, etc., and is not writable. These actual
program settings are used for creation of project description header.
