The following example gives these sample values for the parameters: a
10-character ASCII hexadecimal serial number at address 12345
(hexadecimal), increase the serial number by an increment of 2 for each
device programmed, and print each serial number on the device label (in
hexadecimal). The Program entry field in the
Setup/Serialization
dialog
box might look like this:
serializ.exe
–l10 –fh –a12345 –i2 –h
Parameter Description
–a
Address of serial number.
Defines the device address (hexadecimal value) where the
serial number will be programmed in the device. For
example, –a12345 places the serial number at hexadecimal
address 12345.
Default
: Zero (–a0)
–f
Format of serial number.
Defines the format of the serial number in the device.
These three formats are supported:
–fb = Binary
–fd = ASCII decimal
–fh = ASCII hexadecimal
Default:
Binary (–fb)
–i
Serial number increment.
Defines the decimal value to be used to increment the
serial number after each successfully programmed
device. For example, –i2 increases the serial number by 2
for each device programmed.
Default:
1 (–i1)
-l
Length of serial number.
Defines the number of bytes the serial number occupies in
the device. The following settings are supported.
1 through 4 Binary
1 through 8 ASCII hexadecimal
1 through 10 ASCII decimal
Default:
2 (–l2)
–m
Pure Set gang serialization mode.
Serial numbers are generated one device size apart in
programmer RAM instead of in a single block just beyond
the fixed data in RAM. TaskLink then programs devices
in a single-pass operation with a set size equal to the
number of installed sockets.
–o
Byte order of serial number.
Serial numbers are placed in RAM with the most
significant byte (MSB) or the least significant byte (LSB) at
the first (lower) RAM address. This setting applies to
binary and ASCII formats. The settings are
–om = MSB at first RAM address (Motorola-style)
–oi = LSB at first RAM address (Intel-style)
Default:
MSB at first RAM address (–om)
