TABLE 9-6: MANUAL SELECTION OPTIONS

Memories

Program Check to program Program Memory into target.

selected as a debugger.

Erase all before Program Check to erase all memory before programming begins.

Unless programming new or already erased devices, it is important

to have this box checked. If not checked, the device is not erased

and program code will be merged with the code already in the

device.

Program Memory

Start, End The starting and ending hex address range in program memory for

programming, reading, or verification.

If you receive a programming error due to an incorrect end

address, you need to perform a reconnect, correct the end address

and program again.

Note: The address range does not apply to the Erase function.

The Erase function will erase all data on the device.
