VE - Verify S-Records Against Memory
Command Input
VE [PORT] [ADDR] [;[X] [C]] [=text]
Options
Description
The VE command compares data to the an S-record that is in
memory. This command is similar to the LO command, except that
the data is compared to memory instead of being stored to memory.
The VE command accepts serial data from a host system in the form
of a file of Motorola S-records and compares it to data already in the
memory. If the data does not compare, then you are alerted via
information sent to the terminal screen.
If PORT is not specified but ADDR is specified, insert two commas
in front of ADDR. If this number is omitted, port 1 is assumed.
ADDR is an offset address which is to be added to the address
contained in the address field of each record. This causes the
records to be compared to memory at different locations than
would normally occur. The contents of the automatic offset register
are not added to the S-record addresses. (For information on S-
records, refer to Appendix D)
The optional text argument is a command that is sent to the host
before the debugger begins to look for S-records at the host port.
This allows you to send a command to the host device to initiate the
download. This text should not be delimited by any quote marks,
C Ignore checksum. A checksum for the data contained within an S-
Record is calculated as the S-Record is read in at the port.
Normally, this calculated checksum is compared to the checksum
contained within the S-Record and if the compare fails an error
message is sent to the screen on completion of the download. If
this option is selected, then the comparison is not made.
X Echo the S-records to your terminal as they are read in at the host
port
