ELNEC s. r. o.

Introduction
JetProg is a new generation of Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC universal programmers
built to meet the rigorous demands of the leading engineers
and programming centers.

JetProg supports all kinds of types and silicon technologies of

programmable devices. It provides very competitive price but
excellent hardware design for reliable programming. Best
"value for money" in this class.

JetProg interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers. Programmer
allows you to directly connect to your PC through any
standard parallel (printer) port (no special interface card
needed). We recommend use parallel (printer) port on PCI
bus, IEEE 1284 compatible (ECP/EPP). The JetProg control
program support standard IEEE1284 also.

JetProg offer very fast programming due high-speed FPGA

driven hardware and support of ECP/EPP parallel port.
Consequently and due special protocol is communication
between PC and JetProg programmer fast and very reliable.
The programming AT29C040A takes about 28 seconds it is
faster than most its competitors. As a result, this programmer
is optional solution for middle quantities programming in
production or programming centers.

JetProg, base configuration

• JetProg, base unit
• JetProg, DIL48 socket module
For following text, term JetProg means JetProg in base
configuration.

18
JetProg

JetProg has 48 powerful pindrivers in base unit, expandable

up to 256 pindrivers using "pindriver expansion" modules.
Advanced pin drivers incorporate high-quality high-speed
circuitry to deliver programming and testing performance
without overshoot or ground bounce for all device
technologies. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be
ready to program the full range of today's advanced low-
voltage devices.

Modular design of JetProg allows adapting the programmer

according to customers needs either as very flexible universal
programmer for laboratory or high efficient multiprogrammer in
production line. Multiprogramming capability for most of
supported devices is accomplished by using "multiple socket"
modules.

Powerful pindriver provides logic level, pull-up/pull-down, clock,

ground, one VCC supply and two programming supply and,
certainly read, on each of all 48 pins independently. This
advanced design gives it the ability to program almost every
programmable device in DIL up to 48 pins without adapter or
family specific module. Support for today and tomorrow
programmable devices gives engineers the freedom to choose
the optimum device for new design.

JetProg isn't only programmer, but also tester of TTL/CMOS

logic ICs and memories. Furthermore, it allows generate of
user-definable test pattern sequences.

The programmer has on-board intelligence, comprise of

powerful microcontroller system and support devices. JetProg
has been designed for multitasking operating systems and
is able to perform time-critical programming sequences
independently of the PC operating system status and without
being interrupted by any another parallel process running on
the PC. Consequently, JetProg works without any problem on
systems running Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP.

The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong or

backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-
socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by overcurrent protection and signature-byte check
help prevent chip damage due to operator error.

Built-in protection circuits eliminate damage of programmed

device due to mains supply fluctuations, communication error
or if PC is frozen. In event of such errors microcontroller in
programmer performs, independently on the PC, exactly
specified sequence of steps, so that programmed target device
remains intact. Programmer's hardware offers enough
resources for selftest, that control program is any time be able
to check pindrivers, present and correct level of all voltages,

19
ELNEC s. r. o.

check the timing and communication between programmer and

PC.

An optimally designed printed circuit minimizes negative

programming effects at the socket (such as ground bouncing,
supply voltage instability). All the inputs of the JetProg
programmer, including the ZIF socket, connection to PC and
power supply input, are protected against ESD to protect the
programmer and programmed circuits against damage due
ESD.

JetProg performs programming verification at the marginal

level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves
programming yield, and guarantees long data retention.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN
(MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.
Devices with more than 48 pins are supported by
• pindriver expansion module and universal single socket
module
• simple special package converters

JetProg programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement, production mode - start immediately
after insertion of chip into socket).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provides a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawings of all available
packages are provided. The software provides also
explanation of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and
suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip.

20
JetProg

It is important to remember that in most cases new devices

require only a software upgrade since the JetProg has 48
true pin drivers, which can perform as required under program
control. With our prompt service new devices can be added to
the current list within hours!

Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand

components and careful manufacturing allows us to provide a
three-year warranty on parts and labour for the JetProg
(limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

Note: Due to low power consumption of JetProg in inactive

mode, it doesn't require power switch. When the power LED
indicator glows with a low intensity, the JetProg is in inactive
mode.

Connecting JetProg to the PC

Switch off PC and programmer. Insert the communication
cable included with your JetProg programmer package to a
free printer port on your PC. If your computer is equipped with
only one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the
printer cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the
programmer. Screw on both connectors to counter-connectors.
This is very important. It may be uncomfortable to switch
between printer cable and programmer cable, though it is not
recommended to operate the JetProg programmer through a
mechanical printer switch. Use of an electronic printer switch is
impossible. But you can install a second multi-I/O in your
computer, thus obtaining a supplementary printer port, says
LPT2. So your printer may remain on LPT1 while the
programmer on LPT2.

Switch on the PC.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or the wall-
plug power supply itself) to a mains plug, and then connect the
mini-DIN connector to the programmer's connector labelled
"12VAC". At this time all 'work result' LEDs (and 'POWER'
LED) light up successive and then switch off. Once the
POWER LED lights with low brightness then the JetProg
programmer is ready to run.
Next run the control program for JetProg.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the JetProg, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

From JetProg's point of view the connecting and disconnecting

sequence is irrelevant. Protection circuits on all programmer
inputs keep it safe. But think of your PC please.

JetProg

Problems related to the JetProg PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with JetProg PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target

device and the programmer itself against either short or long-
term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target
device due to incorrect, user-selected programming
parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced
interruption of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by
removing the physical connection to the programmer, but the
content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined.
Don't unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work
with devices (LED BUSY shine).

In-system serial programming by

JetProg
For ISP programming by JetProg is necessary change DIL48
socket module by ISP module.

ISP module attached to JetProg programmer is manual

operated ISP programming solution, suitable for development
and low/middle volume production application.

Optimized advanced pindriver deliver programming

performance without overshoot or ground bounce for all device
technologies. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be
ready to program the full range of today's advanced low-
voltage devices.

The ISP programming solution performs programming

verification at the marginal level of supply voltage, which,

obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long

data retention.

The ISP programming solution provides also the power supply

for the target system.

This ISP programming solution provides very competitive price

but excellent hardware design for reliable programming.

This ISP programming solution is driven by the same software

as the JetProg programmer. The software provide full

BeeProg

Introduction
BeeProg is a first member of new USB-compatible generation
of Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC universal
programmers built to meet the strong demand of the
developers’ community for the fast, the all programmer user
community of users.

BeeProg supports all kinds of types and silicon technologies of

today and tomorrow programmable devices without family-
specific module. Using build-in in-circuit serial programming
(ISP) connector the programmer is able to program ISP
capable chips in circuit.

BeeProg isn't only programmer, but also tester of TTL/CMOS

logic ICs and memories. Furthermore, it allows generating
user-definable test pattern sequences.

BeeProg provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Probably it has best
"value for money" programmer in this class.

BeeProg provides very fast programming due to high-speed

FPGA driven hardware and execution of time-critical routines
inside of the programmer. It is least fast than competitors in
this category.

BeeProg interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers through USB
(2.0) port or any standard parallel (printer) port. Programmer
also supports IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP) high-speed parallel port.
Support of USB/LPT port connection gives you choice to
connect the BeeProg programmer to any PC, from latest
notebook to older desktop without USB port.

BeeProg has a FPGA based totally reconfigurable 48 powerful

TTL pindrivers provide H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read
capability for each pin of socket. Advanced pindrivers
incorporate high-quality high-speed circuitry to deliver
signals without overshoot or ground bounce for all supported
devices. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to
program the full range of today's advanced low-voltage
devices.

BeeProg performs device insertion test (wrong or backward

position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket)
before it programs each device. These capabilities, supported
by overcurrent protection and signature-byte check help
prevent chip damage due to operator error.

33
ELNEC s. r. o.

Built-in protection circuits eliminate damage of programmer

and/or programmed device due environment or operator
failure. All the inputs of the BeeProg programmer, including the
ZIF socket, connection to PC and power supply input, are
protected against ESD up to 15kV.

BeeProg programmer performs programming verification at

the marginal level of supply voltage, which, obviously,
improves programming yield, and guarantees long data
retention.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN
(MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.

BeeProg programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement, production mode - start immediately
after insertion of chip into socket).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provides a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawings of all available
packages are provided. The software provides also
explanation of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and
suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip.

It is important to remember that in most cases new devices

require only a software update due to the BeeProg is truly
universal programmer. With our prompt service you can have
new devices can be added to the current list within hours!

Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand

components and careful manufacturing allows us to provide a
three-year warranty on parts and labour for the BeeProg
(limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

ELNEC s. r. o.

Connecting BeeProg to the PC

Using LPT port

Switch off PC and programmer. Insert the communication
cable included with your BeeProg programmer package to a
free printer port on your PC. If your computer is equipped with
only one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the
printer cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the
programmer. Screw on both connectors to counter-connectors.
This is very important. It may be uncomfortable to switch
between printer cable and programmer cable, though it is not
recommended to operate the BeeProg programmer through a
mechanical printer switch. Use of an electronic printer switch is
impossible. But you can install a second multi-I/O in your
computer, thus obtaining a supplementary printer port, says
LPT2. So your printer may remain on LPT1 while the
programmer on LPT2.

Switch on the PC.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply to a mains
plug, and then connect the mini-DIN connector to the
programmer's connector labelled "15VDC". At this time all
'work result' LEDs (and 'POWER' LED) light up successive and
then switch off. Once the POWER LED lights with low
brightness then the BeeProg programmer is ready to run.
Next run the control program for BeeProg.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the BeeProg, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

From BeeProg's point of view the connecting and

disconnecting sequence is irrelevant. Protection circuits on all
programmer inputs keep it safe. But think of your PC please.

Using USB port

In this case, order of connecting USB cable and power supply
to programmer is irrelevant.

Problems related to the BeeProg PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with BeeProg PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target

device and the programmer itself against either short or long-
term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target
device due to incorrect, user-selected programming
parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced
interruption of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by
removing the physical connection to the programmer, but the
content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined.
Don't unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work
with device (LED BUSY shine).

Multiprogramming by BeeProg
Attaching of more BeeProg programmers to the same PC
(through USB port) is achieved a powerful multiprogramming
system with as much chips supported as BeeProg can and
without obvious decreasing of programming speed. It is
important to know, there is a concurrent multiprogramming -
each programmer works independently and each programmer
can program different chip, if necessary.
During installation of PG4UW at Select Additional Tasks
window you check, if is allowed install BeeProg
multiprogramming control support.
For start of BeeProg multiprogramming is necessary run
special control program pg4uwmc.exe. At this program user
assign BeeProg to control programs, may load projects for all
BeeProg and run PG4UW for every connected and assigned
BeeProg.

Selftest and calibration

If you feel that your programmer does not react according to
your expectation, please run the programmer selftest using
Diagnostic POD, enclosed with the standard delivery package.
For optimal results with programmer we recommend you
undertake every 6 months, an extended test and to check the
calibration. See instructions for selftest in the Diagnostics

LabProg+

LabProg+

Introduction
LabProg+ is a universal programmer that supports
programmable integrated circuits or devices manufactured in
various technologies. Powerful internal pin-driver electronics
controls logic levels, pull-up/pull-down, clock, ground, one
power supply and two programming supplies and is able to
read all 48 pins independently. This advanced design gives
LabProg+ the ability to handle almost every programmable
device in DIL package up to 48 pins without any adapters
and/or family modules. This design philosophy allows ELNEC
to easily add new devices to the device list, giving you the
freedom to implement the optimum device in your designs.

LabProg+ is also a tester of TTL/CMOS logic circuits and

various memories. Furthermore, it can generate user-definable
test pattern sequences. LabProg+ is a true universal and a
true low-cost programmer, providing the best "value for money"
in today's market.

LabProg+ works with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers. No special
interface card is required to connect to the PC since LabProg+
uses the standard parallel printer port. The LabProg+ control
program also supports bi-directional protocols for the parallel
connection to the PC printer port providing fast and reliable
communication speed.

The programmer has on-board intelligence and is controlled by

powerful microcontroller system and support devices.
LabProg+ has been designed for multitasking operating
systems and is able to perform time-critical programming
sequences independently of the PC operating system status
and without being interrupted by any other parallel process
running on the PC. Consequently, LabProg+ works without any
problem on systems running Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP.

LabProg+ performs device insertion test (wrong or backward

position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before
it programs any device. These capabilities, supported by
current limit protection and signature-byte check, help prevent
chip damage due to operator error.

Built-in protections circuits help prevent damage of the

target device due to mains supply fluctuations, communication
errors or if the PC operating system fails. In the event of such
errors the LabProg+ performs independently of the PC exactly
specified special sequences so that the target device remains
intact. LabProg+ performs selftest (diagnostic tests), including
verification of pin-driver voltage/level, for accurate timing of the

47
ELNEC s. r. o.

signals applied to the target device and for reliable

communication with the PC.

LabProg+ incorporates optimal PCB design criteria to minimize

unwanted effects at the pins of the target socket (such as
ground-bouncing and supply/programming voltage glitches). All
the inputs of the LabProg+, including the socket, are protected
against ESD and whilst inserted the target device is also
protected against ESD damage.

LabProg+ performs programming verification at the marginal

level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves
programming yield and guarantees long data retention.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN
(MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.

LabProg programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement, production mode - start immediately
after insertion of chip into socket).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provides a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawings of all available
packages are provided. The software provides also
explanation of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and
suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip.

It is important to remember that in most cases new devices

require only a software upgrade since the LabProg+ has 48
true pin drivers, which can perform as required under program
control. With our prompt service new devices can be added to
the current list within hours!

LabProg+

Advanced design, including protection circuits, original brand

components and careful manufacturing allows us to provide a
three-year warranty on parts and labour for the LabProg+
(limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

Note: Due to low power consumption of LabProg+ in inactive

state, it doesn't require power switch. When the power LED

49
ELNEC s. r. o.

indicator glows with a low intensity the LabProg+ is in inactive

mode.

Connecting LabProg+ to the PC

Switch off PC and programmer. Insert the communication
cable included with your LabProg+ programmer package to a
free printer port on your PC. If your computer is equipped with
only one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the
printer cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the
programmer. Screw on both connectors to counter-connectors.
This is very important. It may be uncomfortable to switch
between printer cable and programmer cable, though it is not
recommended to operate the LabProg+ programmer through a
mechanical printer switch. Use of an electronic printer switch is
impossible. But you can install a second multi-I/O in your
computer, thus obtaining a supplementary printer port, says
LPT2. So your printer may remain on LPT1 while the
programmer on LPT2.

Switch on the PC.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or the wall-
plug power supply itself) to a mains plug, then connect the
mini-DIN connector to the programmer's connector labelled
"12VAC". At this time all 'work result' LEDs (and 'POWER'
LED) light up successive and then switch off. Once the
POWER LED lights with low brightness then the LabProg+
programmer is ready to run.
Next run the control program for LabProg+.

Note: When the PC is switch off and you turn on programmer,

LED maybe not blinking, before programmer maybe
permanent on reset.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the LabProg+, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

From LabProg+'s point of view the connecting and

disconnecting sequence is irrelevant. Protection circuits on all
programmer inputs keep it safe. But think of your PC please.

LabProg+

Problems related to the LabProg+ PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with LabProg+ PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target

device and the programmer itself against either short or long-
term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target
device due to incorrect, user-selected programming
parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced
interruption of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by
removing the physical connection to the programmer, but the
content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined.
Don't unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work
with devices (LED BUSY shine).

Selftest and calibration

If you feel that your programmer does not react according to
your expectation, please run the programmer selftest using
Diagnostic POD, enclosed with the standard delivery package.
For optimal results with programmer we recommend you
undertake every 6 months, an extended test and to check the
calibration. See instructions for selftest in the Diagnostics
menu of PG4UW.

SmartProg2

Introduction
SmartProg2 is next member of new generation of Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC universal programmers.
Programmer is built to meet the demands of the development
labs and field engineers to universal, but portable programmer.

SmartProg2 is a small, fast and powerful programmer of all

kinds of programmable devices. Using build-in in-circuit serial
programming (ISP) connector the programmer is able to
program ISP capable chips in-circuit.

SmartProg2 provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.

Very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven

hardware and USB 2.0 full speed port. It is surely faster than
competitors in this category.

SmartProg2 interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers through USB
port. Therefore you can take programmer and move it to
another PC without assembly/disassembly of PC.

SmartProg2 has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide

H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground
bounce for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate down to
1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of today's
advanced low-voltage devices.

The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong

device position in socket) and contact check (poor contact pin-
to-socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage
due to operator error.

Programmer's hardware offers enough resources for selftest,

that control program is any time be able to check pindrivers,
present and correct level of all voltages, check the timing and
communication between programmer and PC.

SmartProg2 programmer performs programming verification

at the marginal level of supply voltage, which, obviously,
improves programming yield, and guarantees long data
retention.

Warning: SmartProg2 programmer hasn’t protection devices,

which protect the content of programmed device against critical
situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed
in the programming mode due to forced interruption of the
control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due
to removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the
programmed device from the ZIF socket. Incorrectly placed
device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

Front view at ISP connector of programmer.

Specification of ISP connector pins depends on the device,

which you want to program. You can find it in the control SW
for programmer (PG4UW), menu Device / Device Info
(Ctrl+F1). Be aware, the ISP programming way of respective
device must be selected. It is indicated by (ISP) suffix after
name of selected device.
These specifications correspond with application notes
published of device manufacturers. Used application notes you
may find on www.elnec.com, section application notes.

Note: Pin no. 1 is signed by triangle scratch on ISP cable

connectors.

SmartProg2 ISP cable

Warnings:
• When you use SmartProg2 as ISP programmer, don’t
insert device to ZIF socket.
• When you program devices in ZIF socket, don’t insert
ISP cable to ISP connector.
• Use only attached ISP cable. When you use other ISP
cable (other material, length…), programming may occur
unreliable.

• SmartProg2 can supply programmed device only, but

target system cannot supply SmartProg2.
• SmartProg2 apply programming voltage to target device
and checks his value (target system can modify
programming voltage). If the programming voltage is
different as expected, no action with target device will be
executed.

Introduction
SmartProg is next member of new generation of Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC universal programmers.
Programmer is built to meet the demands of the development
labs and field engineers to universal, but portable programmer.

SmartProg is a small, fast and powerful programmer of all

kinds of programmable devices. Using build-in in-circuit serial
programming (ISP) connector the programmer is able to
program ISP capable chips in-circuit.

SmartProg provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.

SmartProg provides very fast programming due to high-speed

FPGA driven hardware and support of IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP)
high-speed parallel port. It is surely faster than competitors in
this category.

SmartProg interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers through any
standard parallel (printer) port (no special interface card
needed). Therefore you can take programmer and move it to
another PC without assembly/disassembly of PC.

SmartProg has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide

H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground
bounce for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate down to
1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of today's
advanced low-voltage devices.

The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong

device position in socket) and contact check (poor contact pin-
to-socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage
due to operator error.

Programmer's hardware offers enough resources for selftest,

that control program is any time be able to check pindrivers,
present and correct level of all voltages, check the timing and
communication between programmer and PC.

SmartProg programmer performs programming verification at

the marginal level of supply voltage, which, obviously,
improves programming yield, and guarantees long data
retention.

68
SmartProg

SmartProg programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provides a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawings of all available
packages are provided. The software provides also
explanation of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and
suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN (MLF) and
other packages.

Advanced design, including protection circuits, original brand

components and careful manufacturing allows us to provide a
three-year warranty on parts and labour for the SmartProg
(limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

Note: Due to low power consumption of SmartProg in inactive

state, it doesn't require power switch. When the power LED
indicator glows with a low intensity the SmartProg is in inactive
mode.

Connecting SmartProg to PC
Switch off the PC and programmer. Insert the connection
cable, included in the SmartProg programmer delivery, to the
free printer port of PC. If your computer is equipped with only

70
SmartProg

one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the printer
cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the programmer.
Screw on both connectors to counter connectors. This is very
important mainly for the connector to programmer. Though
replacing the printer cable by the programmer cable is
uncomfortable, it is not recommended to operate the
SmartProg programmer through a mechanical printer switch.
Use of an electronic printer switch isn't possible.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or wall-plug

power supply self) to a mains plug, connect the connector to
the programmer's connector labelled 15VDC. At this time all
'work result' LEDs (and 'POWER' LED) light up successive and
then switch off. Once the POWER LED lights with low
brightness then the SmartProg is ready to run.

Next switch on the PC and run the control program.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the SmartProg, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

Problems related to the SmartProg PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with SmartProg PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Warning: SmartProg programmer hasn’t protection devices,

which protect the content of programmed device against critical
situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed
in the programming mode due to forced interruption of the
control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due

71
ELNEC s. r. o.

to removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the

programmed device from the ZIF socket. Incorrectly placed
device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

Specification of ISP connector pins depends on the device,

which you want to program. You can find it in the control SW
for programmer (PG4UW), menu Device / Device Info
(Ctrl+F1). Be aware, the ISP programming way of respective
device must be selected. It is indicated by (ISP) suffix after
name of selected device.
These specifications correspond with application notes
published of device manufacturers. Used application notes you
may find on www.elnec.com, section application notes.

Note: Pin no. 1 is signed by triangle scratch on ISP cable

connectors.

SmartProg ISP cable

Warnings:
• When you use SmartProg as ISP programmer, don’t
insert device to ZIF socket.
• When you program devices in ZIF socket, don’t insert
ISP cable to ISP connector.
• Use only attached ISP cable. When you use other ISP
cable (other material, length…), programming may occur
unreliable.

72
SmartProg

• SmartProg can supply programmed device only, but

target system cannot supply SmartProg.
• SmartProg apply programming voltage to target device and
checks his value (target system can modify programming
voltage). If the programming voltage is different as
expected, no action with target device will be executed.

PREPROM-02aLV

Introduction
PREPROM-02aLV is a small and powerful EPROM, EEPROM,
Flash EPROM and serial EEPROM programmer and static
RAM tester, designed for professional mobile applications. In
addition, PREPROM-02aLV programmer with auxiliary
modules support also microprocessors (MCS48, MCS51,
PICmicro, AVR), GALs, etc. Generators for supply voltage and
programming voltage are digitally controlled and level of H can
be limited, therefore programmer can work with 'true LV' device
too - from 2V. Performance, dimensions and speed of
PREPROM-02aLV can be used both in maintenance and in
production.

MEMprog

Introduction
MEMprog is next member of Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP
based ELNEC specialized programmers. Programmer is built
to meet the demands of the development labs and field
engineers for a specialized memory programmer.

MEMprog is little, very fast and powerful portable programmer

for virtually all memory types - EPROM, EEPROM, NVRAM,
Flash EPROM and serial EEPROM - low voltage types
including. MEMprog isn't only programmer, but also static RAM
tester.

MEMprog provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.

MEMprog provides very fast programming due to high-speed

FPGA driven hardware and support of IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP)
high-speed parallel port.

MEMprog interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers through any
parallel (printer) port, but it can utilize all ECP/EPP
advantages.

MEMprog has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide

H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver programming without overshoot or
ground bounce for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate
down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of
today's advanced low-voltage devices.

The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong or

backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-
socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage
due to operator error.

Programmer's hardware offers enough resources for selftest,

that control program is any time be able to check pindrivers,
present and correct level of all voltages, check the timing and
communication between programmer and PC.

MEMprog performs programming verification at the marginal

level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves
programming yield, and guarantees long data retention.

87
ELNEC s. r. o.

MEMprog is driven by an easy-to-use control program with

pull-down menus, hot keys and on-line help. Selecting of
device is performed by its class, by manufacturer or simply by
typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are enhanced by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provides a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawings of all available
packages are provided. The software provides also
explanation of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and
suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, SSOP, TSOP, TSSOP and other packages.

Connecting MEMprog
programmer to PC
Switch off the PC and programmer. Insert the connection
cable, included in the MEMprog programmer delivery, to the
free printer port of PC. If your computer is equipped with only
one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the printer
cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the programmer.
Screw on both connectors to counter connectors. This is very
important mainly for the connector to programmer. Though
replacing the printer cable by the programmer cable is
uncomfortable, it is not recommended to operate the MEMprog
programmer through a mechanical printer switch. Use of an
electronic printer switch isn't possible.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or wall-plug

power supply self) to a mains plug, connect the connector to
the appropriate programmer's connector. Then, on the
programmer lights up LED POWER and the programmer
MEMprog is ready to run. Next switch on the PC and run the
control program.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the MEMprog, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

Problems related to the MEMprog PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with MEMprog PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the

89
ELNEC s. r. o.

lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed

device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Warning: MEMprog programmer hasn’t protection devices,

which protect the content of programmed device against critical
situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed
in the programming mode due to forced interruption of the
control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due
to removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the
programmed device from the ZIF socket. Incorrectly placed
device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

Selftest and calibration

If you feel that your programmer does not react according to
your expectation, please run the programmer selftest using
Diagnostic POD, enclosed with the standard delivery package.
For optimal results with programmer we recommend you
undertake every 6 months, an extended test and to check the
calibration. See instructions for selftest in the Diagnostics
menu of PG4UW.

ELNEC s. r. o.

Introduction
T51prog is a new generation of Windows
95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC specialized
programmers. Programmer is capable to support all today
available microcontrollers of MCS51 series (up to 40 pins) and
AVR microcontrollers (8-40 pins) by parallel and serial way.
T51prog has been developed in close cooperation with Atmel
W&M., therefore programmer's hardware is focused to support
all current and future microcontrollers of Atmel W&M MCS51
family.

T51prog is little, very fast and powerful portable programmer

for MCS51 series and Atmel AVR microcontrollers. T51prog
enables also programming of serial EEPROM with IIC (24Cxx),
Microwire (93Cxx) and SPI (25Cxx) interface types. Using
build-in in-circuit serial programming (ISP) connector
programmer is capable to program MCS51 family
microcontrollers and Atmel AVR microcontrollers in serial way.

T51prog provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.

T51prog provides very fast programming due to high-speed

FPGA driven hardware and support of IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP)
high-speed parallel port. It is surely faster than competitors in
this category.

T51prog interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers. A programmer
allows you to directly connect to your PC through any standard
parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is needed.

T51prog has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide

H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver programming without overshoot or

level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves
programming yield, and guarantees long data retention

T51prog programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

Introduction
51&AVRprog is little and powerful portable programmer for
MCS51 series and Atmel AVR microcontrollers. 51&AVRprog
enables also programming serial EEPROM with interface types
IIC (24Cxx), Microwire (93Cxx) and SPI (25Cxx). The
programmer is equipped by DIL ZIF 40pin socket. The quality
of programmer is completed by comfortable control program.

51&AVRprog interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible

or higher, portable or desktop personal computers. A
programmer allows you to directly connect to your PC through
any standard parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is
needed.

51&AVRprog programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(signature-byte check), and some special functions
(autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provide a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawing of all available
packages are provided. The software provide also explanation
of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and suffixes at the
chips) for each supported chip.

The 51&AVRprog can make for use of DIL to PLCC and SOIC
socket converters.

Warning: Jumper must be in position JP2-JP3 for MCS51

devices and JP3-JP4 for AVR family device. Jumper is
accessible after removing bottom part of programmer case.
Default jumper position is JP2-JP3 (for MCS51 family).

Connecting 51&AVRprog
programmer to PC
Switch off the PC and programmer. Insert the connection
cable, included in the 51&AVRprog programmer delivery, to
the free printer port of PC. If your computer is equipped with
only one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the
printer cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the
programmer. Screw on both connectors to counter connectors.
This is very important mainly for the connector to programmer.
Though replacing the printer cable by the programmer cable is
uncomfortable, it is not recommended to operate the
51&AVRprog programmer through a mechanical printer switch.
Use of an electronic printer switch isn't possible.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or wall-plug

power supply self) to a mains plug, connect the connector to
the appropriate programmer's connector. Then, on the

113
ELNEC s. r. o.

programmer lights up LED POWER and the programmer

51&AVRprog is ready to run. Next switch on the PC and run
the control program.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the 51&AVRprog , proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

Problems related to the 51&AVRprog PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with 51&AVRprog PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's cover. The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the
socket when LED BUSY light off.

Warning! 51&AVRprog programmer hasn’t protection devices,

which protect the content of programmed device against critical
situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed
in the programming mode due to forced interruption of the
control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due
to removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the
programmed device from the ZIF socket. Incorrectly placed
device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

PIKprog+

117
ELNEC s. r. o.

Introduction
PIKprog+ is a member of the new generation of Windows
95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP based ELNEC specialized
programmers. Programmer is capable to support all currently
TM ®
available Microchip PICmicro series microcontrollers (8-40
pins) using parallel and serial algorithms. The PIKprog+
programmer isn't development grade programmer, but meets
all Microchip's requirements to manufacturing grade of
programmers. The PIKprog+ has been developed in close
TM
cooperation with Microchip company, therefore
programmer's hardware is focused to support all current and
®
future PICmicro family microcontrollers.

PIKprog+ is a small, very fast and powerful portable

®
programmer for PICmicro family microcontrollers and serial
EEPROM with IIC (24Cxx), Microwire (93Cxx) and SPI (25Cxx)
interface types. Using build-in in-circuit serial programming
®
(ISP) connector programmer is able to program PICmicro
family microcontrollers using serial algorithms.

PIKprog+ provides very competitive price but excellent

hardware design for reliable programming. Nice "value for
money" in this class.

PIKprog+ provides very fast programming due to high-speed

FPGA driven hardware and support of IEEE1284 (ECP/EPP)
high-speed parallel port. It is surely faster than competitors in
this category.

PIKprog+ interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers. A programmer
allows you to directly connect to your PC through any standard
parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is needed.

PIKprog+ has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide

H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability for each pin of
socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-
speed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground
bounce for all supported devices. Pin drivers operate down to
1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of today's
advanced low-voltage devices.

The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong

device position in socket) and contact check (poor contact pin-
to-socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage
due to operator error.

118
PIKprog+

PIKprog+ programmer performs programming verification at

the marginal level of supply voltage, which, obviously,
improves programming yield, and guarantees long data
retention.

PIKprog+ programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions
(insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special
functions (autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provide a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawing of all available
packages are provided. The software provide also explanation
of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and suffixes at the
chips) for each supported chip.

Various socket converters are available to handle device in

PLCC, SOIC, SSOP, TSSOP, TQFP and other packages.

digital thermometers. The programmer supports LV (3.3V)
devices too.

SEEprog interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or

higher, portable or desktop personal computers. Programmer
allows you to directly connect to your PC through any standard
parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is needed.

SEEprog programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control

program with pull-down menu, hot keys and on-line help.
Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer
or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part
number.

Standard device-related commands (read, blank check,

program, verify, erase) are boosted by some test functions,
and some special functions (autoincrement).

All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format

detection and conversion during load of file.

The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign

individual serial numbers to each programmed device - or
simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification
signatures from a file.

The software also provide a many informations about

programmed device. As a special, the drawing of all available
packages are provided. The software provide also explanation
of chip labelling (the meaning of prefixes and suffixes at the
chips) for each supported chip.

For SEEprog programmer are available DIL to SOIC socket

converters.

Connecting SEEprog programmer

to PC
Switch off the PC and programmer. Insert the connection
cable, included in the SEEprog programmer delivery, to the
free printer port of PC. If your computer is equipped with only
one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the printer
cable. Connect the opposite cable end to the programmer.
Screw on both connectors to counter connectors. This is very
important mainly for the connector to programmer. Though
replacing the printer cable by the programmer cable is
uncomfortable, it is not recommended to operate the SEEprog
programmer through a mechanical printer switch. Use of an
electronic printer switch isn't possible.

Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or wall-plug

power supply self) to a mains plug, connect the connector to
the appropriate programmer's connector. Then, on the

135
ELNEC s. r. o.

programmer lights up LED POWER and the programmer

SEEprog is ready to run. Next switch on the PC and run the
control program.

Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when

connecting the SEEprog, proceed as follows:
• When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert
the communications cable and THEN the power-supply
connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST
disconnect the power-supply connector and THEN the
communication cable.

Problems related to the SEEprog PC

interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with SEEprog PC
interconnection, see section Common notes please.

Manipulation with the

programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert
into the open ZIF socket (the lever is up) and close socket (the
lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket
on the programmer's. The programmed device is necessary to
insert into the socket also to remove from the socket when
LED BUSY light off.

Warning! SEEprog programmer hasn’t protection devices,

which protect the content of programmed device against critical
situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed
in the programming mode due to forced interruption of the
control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due
to removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the
programmed device from the ZIF socket. Incorrectly placed
device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

The programmer software

The programmer package contains a CD with the control
program, useful utilities and additional information. The
permission to freely copy the content of the CD is granted in
order to demonstrate how ELNEC's programmers work.
Differences and modifications to this manual (if they exist) may
be found in www.elnec.com web site.

Installing of programmer software

Installing the programmer software is very easy. Insert
delivered CD to your CD drive and install program starts
automatically. Install program (setup.exe), which will guide you
through the installation process and which will do all the
necessary steps before you can first run the control program.

Program PG4UW.exe is common control program for all

ELNEC's programmers. We guarantee running of these
programs under all of above mentioned operating systems
without any problems. Also background operation under
Windows is error-free.

New versions of programmer software

In order to exploit all the capabilities of programmer we
recommend using the latest version of PG4UW (see appendix
B - Keep-Current Service). You may download the latest
version of programmer software (file PG4UWARC.exe) from
our Internet site www.elnec.com, part download. You may
also obtain CD with this file by snail-mail (a mailing charge will
apply).

Upgrading the programmer software

Copy PG4UWARC.exe to a temporary directory then launch it.
After extraction you will see all available files needed for the
installation process. Then redo a standard installation (run the
Setup program). You may delete all files from the temporary
folder after the installation process is complete.

Using the programmer software

The control program delivered by ELNEC, included on the
CD in your package, is granted to be free from any viruses
at the moment of delivery. To increase their safety our
programs include a special algorithm for detecting possible
virus infections.

140
Software

Run the control program

In Windows environment: double click to icon PG4UW.

After start, control program PG4UW automatically scan all

existing ports and search for the connected any ELNEC's
programmer. Program PG4UW is common for all the ELNEC's
programmers, hence program try to find all supported (JetProg,
BeeProg, LabProg+, SmartProg2, SmartProg, PREPROM-
02aLV, MEMprog, MEMprogL, T51prog, 51&AVRprog,
PIKprog+, PIKprog and SEEprog) programmers.

Notes: When PG4UW is started, program is checked for its

integrity. Than the program display a standard user menu and
waits for your instructions.

If the control program cannot communicate with the

programmer, an error message appears on the screen,
including error code and description of possible reasons
(disconnected programmer, bad connection, power supply
failure, incompatible printer port, ...). Eliminate the error source
and press any key. If error condition still exists, the program
resumes its operation in the demo mode and access to the
programmer is not possible. If you cannot find the cause of the
error, follow the instructions in Troubleshooting section. In
addition, the control program checks communication with
programmer prior to any operation with the programmed
device.

File
This submenu is used for source files manipulation, settings
and viewing directory, changes drives, changes start and finish
address of buffer for loading and saving files by binary,
MOTOROLA, MOS Technology, Intel (extended) HEX,
Tektronix, ASCII space, JEDEC, and POF format. The menu
commands for loading and saving projects are located in this
submenu too.

File / Load
Analyse file format and loads the data from specified file to the
buffer. You can choose the format desired (binary,
MOTOROLA, MOS Technology, Tektronix, Intel (extended)
HEX, ASCII space, JEDEC and POF). The control program
stores a last valid mask for file listing. You can save the mask
into the config. file by command Options / Save options.

Checking the check box Automatic file format recognition

tells program to detect file format automatically. When program
can't detect file format from one of supported formats, the
binary file format is assumed.

143
ELNEC s. r. o.

When the check box Automatic file format recognition is

unchecked program allows user to manually select wished file
format from list of available file formats on panel Selected file
format. Default set is from Options / General options in
panel Load file format at tab File options.

Checking the check box Buffer offset for loading tells the
program to set buffer offset for all data addresses, which will
be written to buffer. This feature is useful for binary and all
HEX formats. Using this one-shot setting disables current
setting of native offset in menu Options / General options in
panel Negative offset for loading at tab Hex file options.

Checking the check box Erase buffer before loading tells the
program to erase all buffer data using entered Erase value.
Buffer erase is performed immediately before reading file
content to buffer and it is functional for binary and all HEX file
formats. Using this one-shot setting disables current setting of
Erase buffer before loading option in menu Options /
General options at tab Hex file options.

If the checkbox Swap bytes is displayed, the user can activate

function of swapping bytes within 16bit words (or 2-byte words)
during reading of file. This feature is useful especially when
loading files with Motorola representation of byte order in file
(big endian). Standard load file is using little endian byte order.

Note: Big-endian and little-endian are terms that describe the

order in which a sequence of bytes are stored in computer
memory. Big-endian is an order in which the "big end" (most
significant value in the sequence) is stored first (at the lowest
storage address). Little-endian is an order in which the "little
end" (least significant value in the sequence) is stored first. For
example, in a big-endian computer, the two bytes required for
the hexadecimal number 4F52 would be stored as 4F52H in
storage address 1000H as: 4FH is stored at storage address
1000H, and 52H will be at address 1001H. In a little-endian
system, it would be stored as 524FH (52H at address 1000H,
and 4FH at address 1001H).

Number 4F52H is stored in memory:

Address Big endian Little endian

system system
1000H 4FH 52H
1001H 52H 4FH

The reserved key <F3> will bring out this menu from any menu

File / Save
This command saves data in the buffer, which has been
created, modified, or read from a device onto a specified disk.
The file format of saved file can be chosen from supported
formats list box. There can be also entered the Buffer start and
Buffer end addresses which exactly specify part of buffer to
save to file. Supported file formats now are binary,
MOTOROLA, MOS Technology, Tektronix, Intel (extended)
HEX, ASCII space, JEDEC and POF.

If the checkbox Swap bytes is displayed, the user can activate

function of swapping bytes within 16bit words (or 2-byte words)
during writing to file. This feature is useful especially when
saving files with Motorola representation of byte order in file
(big endian). Standard save file operation is using little endian
byte order.

The reserved key <F2> will bring out this menu from any menu
and any time.

File / Load project

This option is used for loading project file, which contains
device configuration buffer data saved and user interface
configuration.

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.

145
ELNEC s. r. o.

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.

The dialog Save project contains three additional windows in

Project description panel placed at the bottom of dialog Save
project. The windows are for displaying information about
currently selected project file in dialog Save project and
information about current project, which has to be saved.
Dialog Save project contains also additional button with
picture of key displayed. Clicking on this button password
dialog appears which can be used to save project with
password. Projects with password are special projects also
called Protected mode projects. For more detailed
information about project passwords see Options / Protected
mode.

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)

The first (upper) window contains information about currently

selected project file in dialog Save project.

The second (middle) windows displays information about

actual program configuration including currently selected

146
Software

device, active programmer, date, time. These actual program

settings are used for creation of project description header.

The third (bottom) window is user editable and contains project

description (arbitrary text), which usually consists of project
author and some notes.

author and other text data for more detailed project
description

147
ELNEC s. r. o.

User can directly edit user defined project description only.

Device name, manufacturer, project date and program version
are generated automatically by program.

File / Load encryption table

This command loads the data from binary file from disk and it
saves them into the part of memory, reserved for an encryption
(security) table.

File / Save encryption table

This command writes the content of the memory's part,
reserved for an encryption table, into the file on the disk as a
binary data.

File / Exit without save

The command deallocates heap, cancels buffer on disk (if
exists) and returns back to the operation system.

File / Exit and save

The command deallocates heap, cancels buffer on the disk (if
exists), saves current setting of last 10 selected devices to disk
and returns back to the operation system.

Buffer

Buffer / Fill random data

If this command is selected, the content of the buffer will be
filled with random data.

The reserved key <Shift+Ctrl+F2> will bring out this menu

from any menu and any time.

Buffer / Duplicate buffer

This command performs duplicate buffer content in range of
source EPROM to range of destination EPROM. This
procedure is suitable if there is used for example 27C512
EPROM to 27C256 EPROM position.
Note: The procedure always uses buffer start address 00000h.

Buffer / Checksum
The checksum dialog is used for calculate checksums of
selected block in buffer. The checksums are calculated by next
way :

Byte sum by bytes to "word". CY flag is

ignored
Word sum by words to "word". CY flag is
ignored
Byte (CY) sum by bytes to "word". CY flag is added
to result.
Word (CY) sum by words to "word". CY flag is added
to result.
CRC-CCITT sum by bytes to "word" using
RESULT=PREVIOUS + (x^16 + x^12 + x^5 +1)
CRC-XModem sum by bytes to "word" using
RESULT=PREVIOUS + (x^16 + x^15 + x^2 +1)

Column marked as Neg. is a negation of checksum so, that

Sum + Neg. = FFFFH.
Column marked as Suppl. is complement of checksum so, that
Sum + Suppl. = 0 (+ carry).

Dialog checksum contains following items:

152
Software

From address: This is a start address of block selected for

calculating checksums in buffer. Address is defined as Byte
address.

To address: This is an end address of block selected for

calculating checksums in buffer. Address is defined as Byte
address.

Insert checksum: This is special item used for select which

kind of checksum will be written into the buffer when, the
Calculate & insert was executed.

Insert at address: This is special item that specifies an

address from the buffer where a result of chosen checksum will
be written, when the Calculate & insert was executed.
Address can not be specified inside the range <From
address> to <To address>, from which will be checksum
calculate. Address is defined as Byte address.

Size: This item is used for setting a size of chosen checksum

result, which will be written into the buffer. A size of checksum
result may be 8 (byte) or 16 (word) bits long. If word size was
selected, whole checksum value will be written into the buffer.
In other case only low byte of checksum value will be written
into the buffer.
Note: If word size was selected, a low byte of checksum value
will be written on address specified in box Insert address and a
high byte will be written on address incremented by one.

Calculate: Click on the button Calculate starts calculating

checksums for selected block in buffer. No writes into the
buffer are executed.

Calculate & insert: Click on the button Calculate & insert

starts calculating checksums for selected block in the buffer
and writes the chosen checksum into the buffer on address
specified by Insert address.

Device
Menu Device includes functions for a work with selected
programmable devices - device select, read data from device,

Device / Select EPROM /Flash by ID

Use this command for autoselect an EPROM or Flash as
active device by reading the device ID. The programmer can
automatically identify certain devices by the reading the
manufacturer and the device-ID that are burnt into the chip.
This only applies to EPROM or Flash that supports this feature.
If the device does not support a chip ID and manufacturer's ID,
a message will be displayed indicating this as an unknown or
not supported device.

If more devices with identical chip ID and manufacturer's ID

were detected, the list of these devices will be displayed. A
corresponding device can be chosen from this list by selecting
its number (or manufacturer name) from list and press <Enter>
(or click OK button). Press a key <Esc> or click Cancel button
at any time to cancel device selection without affecting the
currently selected device.

Warning: The control program only support this time

EPROM’s and Flash with 28 and 32 pins. Any of programmers
determines pins number automatically. For other programmers
you must enter this number manually.

The programmer applies a high voltage to the appropriate pins

on the socket. This is necessary to enable the system to read
the device ID. Do not insert into the socket a device that is not
an EPROM or Flash. It may be damaged when the programmer
applies the high voltage.

We don't recommend apply this command to 2764 and 27128

EPROM types, because most of them ID not supports.

Terms explanation:
Access to device address ADDR is written as
Device[ADDR].
Access to buffer address ADDR is written as
Buffer[ADDR].
ADDR value can be from zero to device size (in bytes).
All addresses are byte oriented addresses.

group Insertion test:

insertion test (default ENABLE)

If enabled, the programmer checks all pins of the
programmed chip, if have proper connection to the ZIF
socket (continuity test). The programmer is able to

157
ELNEC s. r. o.

identify the wrong contact, misinserted chip and also

(partially) backinserted chip.
check ID bytes (default ENABLE)
If enabled, the programmer checks the electronic ID of
the programmed chip.
Note 1: Some old chips don't carry electronic ID.
Note 2: In some special cases, several microcontrollers
don't provide ID, if copy protection feature in the chip is
set, even if device ID check setting in control program is
set to "Enable".

group Command execution:

blank check before programming (default DISABLE)

erase before programming (default DISABLE)
verify after reading (default ENABLE)
verify (ONCE, TWICE)
verify options (nominal VCC +/-5%
nominal VCC +/-10%
VCCmin - VCCmax)

group ISP Target Supply Parameters

Enable target system power supply - enables supplying of

target system from programmer. Supply voltage for target
system is switched on before action with programmed device
and is switched off after action finished. If Keep ISP signals
at defined level after operation is enabled, then programmer
will switch off supply voltage after pull-up/pull-down resistors
are deactivated.

Voltage - supply voltage for target system.

Max. current - maximum current consumption of powered

target system.

Voltage rise time - determines skew rate of rising edge of

target supply voltage (switch on supply voltage).

Target supply settle time - determines time, after which

must be supply voltage in target system stabilized at set
value and target system is ready to any action with
programmed device.

Voltage fall time - determines skew rate of falling edge of

target supply voltage (switch off supply voltage).

Power down time - determines time after switch off target

system power supply within target system keeps residual
supply voltage (e.g. from charged capacitor). After this time

158
Software

elapsed target system has to be without supply voltage and

can be safely disconnected from programmer.

group Target System Parameters

Oscillator frequency (in Hz) - oscillator's frequency of

device (in target system). Control program sets programming
speed by its, therefore is necessary set correct value.

Supply voltage (in mV) - supply voltage in target system.

Control program checks or sets (it depends on programmer
type) entered supply voltage in target system before every
action on device.

Disable test supply voltage - disables measure and

checking supply voltage of programmed device, set in Supply
voltage edit box, before action with device.

Delay after reset active - this parameter determine delay

after Reset signal active to start action with device. This
delay depends on values of used devices in reset circuit of
device and can be chosen from these values: 10ms, 50ms,
100ms, 500ms or 1s.

Inactive level of ISP signals - this parameter determine

level of ISP signals after finishing access to target device.
Signals of ISP connector can be set to Pull-up (signals are
tied through 22k resistors to supply voltage) or Pull-down
(signals are tied through 22k resistors to ground).

Keep ISP signals at defined level after operation - enables

keeping set level of ISP signals after access to target device
finished. Control program indicates activated pull-up/pull-
down resistors by displaying window with warning. After user
close this window control program will deactivate resistors.
Device / Device options / Serialization
Serialization is special mode of program. When a serialization
mode is activated, a specified value is automatically inserted
on predefined address into buffer before programming each
device. When more devices are programmed one by one, the
serial number value is changed for each device automatically
and inserted into buffer before programming device, so each
device has unique serial number.

There are two types of serialization:

• Incremental mode
• From file mode

If a new device is selected, the serialization function is set to a

default state i.e. disabled.

159
ELNEC s. r. o.

Actual serialization settings for actually selected device are

saving to disk along with associated device by File / Exit and
save command.
When incremental mode is active following actual settings are
saved to configuration file: address, size, serial value,
incremental step and settings of modes ASCII / BIN, DEC /
HEX, LS byte / MS Byte first.

When from-file mode is active following actual settings are

saved to configuration file: name of input serialization file and
actual label, which indicates the line with actual serial number
in input file.

When program is in multiprogramming mode (multiple socket

programmer is actually selected) the special section - Action
on not programmed serial values due to error - is displayed
in dialog Serialization. In this section two choices are
available:

1. Ignore not programmed serial values

2. Add not programmed serial values to file

Ignore not programmed serial values means the not

programmed serial values are ignored and no action is done
with them.

Add not programmed serial values to file means the not

programmed serial values are added to file. The file of not
programmed serial values has the same text format as
serialization file for ”From-file” serialization mode. So there is
possible to program the serial values later on by ”From-file”
serialization mode.

If device programming is stopped by user, program will not

change the serial values ready for next batch of devices. The
same situation is if device program is incomplete, e.g. for
device insertion test error.

Ignoring or writing not programmed serial values is only used

when at least one device from current batch of devices in
multiple socket module programmer is completely programmed
and verified without errors.

Note: Serialization can work with control program’s main buffer

only. It means the serialization can be used for device areas
placed inside control program’s main buffer. Device special
areas placed outside the program’s main buffer could not use
serialization feature.
Device / Device options / Serialization /
Incremental mode

160
Software

The Incremental mode enables to assign individual serial

numbers to each programmed device. A starting number
entered by user will be incremented by specified step for
each device program operation and loaded in selected
format to specified buffer address prior to programming of
each device.

There are following options, that user can modify for

incremental mode:

S / N size
S / N size option defines the number of bytes of serial value
which will be written to buffer. For Bin (binary) serialization
modes values 1-4 are valid for S / N size and for ASCII
serialization modes values 1-8 are valid for S / N size.

Address
Address option specifies the buffer address, where serial
value has to be written. Note that address range must be
inside the device start and device end addresses. Address
must be correctly specified so the last (highest or lowest)
byte of serial value must be inside device start and device
end address range.

Start value
Start value option specifies the initial value, from which
serialization will start. Generally, the max. value for
serialization is $1FFFFFFF in 32 bit long word.
When the actual serial value exceeds maximum value,
three most significant bits of serial number are set to zero.
After this action the number is always inside 0..$1FFFFFFF
interval (this is basic style of overflow handling).

Step
Step options specify the increment step of serial value
incrementation.

S / N mode
S / N mode option defines the form in which serial value
has to be written to buffer. Two options are available:
• ASCII
• Bin
ASCII - means the serial number is written to buffer as
ASCII string. For example number $0528CD is in ASCII
mode written to buffer as 30h 35h 32h 38h 43h 44h (‘0’ ‘5’
‘2’ ‘8’ ‘C’ ‘D’), i.e. six bytes.
Bin - means the serial number is written directly to buffer. If
the serial number has more than one byte length, it can be
written in one of two possible byte orders. The byte order
can be changed in „Save to buffer“ item.

161
ELNEC s. r. o.

Style
Style option defines serial number base. There are two
options:
• Decimal
• Hexadecimal.
Decimal numbers are entered and displayed using the
characters '0' through '9'.
Hexadecimal numbers also use characters 'A' through 'F'.
The special case is Binary Dec, which means BCD number
style. BCD means the decimal number is stored in
hexadecimal number, i.e. each nibble must have value
from 0 to 9. Values A to F are not allowed as nibbles of
BCD numbers.
Select the base in „Style“ options before entering numbers
of serial start value and step.

Save to buffer
Save to buffer option specifies the serial value byte order to
write to buffer. This option is used for Bin S / N mode (for
ASCII mode it has no effect).

Two options are available:

• LSByte first (used by Intel processors) will place the
Least Significant Byte of serial number to the lowest
address in buffer.
• MSByte first (used by Motorola processors) will place
the Most Significant Byte first to the lowest address in
buffer.

Split serial number at every N byte(s)

The option allows dividing serial number into individual
bytes and placing the bytes at each Nth address of buffer.
This feature is particularly useful for example for Microchip
PIC devices when the device serial number can be the part
of program memory as group of RETLW instructions. The
example of using serial number split is listed in section
Examples bellow as example number 2.

Examples:
1. Write serial numbers to AT29C040 devices at address
7FFFAH, size of serial number is 4 bytes, start value is
16000000H, incremental step is 1, the serial number form
is binary and least significant byte is placed at the lower
address of serial number in device.

To make above described serialization following settings

have to be set in Serialization dialog:

Mode: Incremental mode

S/N size: 4 bytes
S/N mode:: Bin

162
Software

Style: Hex
Save to buffer: LS Byte first
Address: 7FFFCH
Start value: 16000000H
Step: 1

Following values will be written to device:

The 1st device
Address Data
007FFF0 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx 00 00 00 16
The 2nd device
Address Data
007FFF0 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx 01 00 00 16
The 3rd device
Address Data
007FFF0 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx 02 00 00 16
etc.
”xx” mean user data programmed to device
Serial numbers are written to device from address
7FFFCH to address 7FFFFH because serial number size
is 4 bytes.

2. Following example shows usage of SQTP serialization

mode when serial number is split into RETLW
instructions for Microchip PIC16F628 devices.
Note: Serial quick turn programming (SQTP) is Microchip
specified standard for serial programming of Microchip
PIC microcontrollers. Microchip PIC devices allows you to
program a unique serial number into each
microcontroller. This number can be used as an entry
code, password, or ID number.
Serialization is done by using a series of RETLW (Return
Literal W) instructions, with the serial number bytes as
the literal data. To serialize, you can use Incremental
mode serialization or From file mode serialization.

Incremental serialization offers serial number Split

function. Serial number split allows usage of incremental
numbers separated into even or odd bytes and between
each byte of serial number RETLW instruction code is
inserted.

From file serialization is using proprietary serial numbers

file. This file can consist of various serial numbers. The
numbers can have format suitable for SQTP that means
number RETLW b1 RETLW b2 and so on. Note that
PG4UW serial file format is not compatible with SQTP
serial file generated by Microchip MPLAB.

Device PIC16F628 has 14 bit wide instruction word.

Instruction RETLW has 14-Bit Opcode:

163
ELNEC s. r. o.

Description MSB 14-Bit word LSB

RETLW Return with literal in W 11 01xx kkkk kkkk

where xx can be replaced by 00 and k are data bits, i.e.

serial number byte

Opcode of RETLW instruction is hexadecimal 34KKH

where KK is data Byte (serial number byte)

Let’s assume we want to write serial number

1234ABCDH as part of four RETLW instructions to
device PIC. The highest Byte of serial number is the most
significant Byte. We want to write the serial number to
device program memory at address 40H. Serial number
split us very useful in this situation. Serialization without
serial number split will write the following number to
buffer and device:

AddressData
0000080 CD AB 34 12 xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx

Note: address 80H is because buffer has byte

organization and PIC has word organization so it has
equivalent program memory address 40H. When buffer
has word organization x16, the address will be 40H and
number 1234ABCDH will be placed to buffer as following:

Address Data
0000040 ABCD 1234 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

We want to use RETLW instruction so buffer has to be:

Address Data
0000040 34CD 34AB 3434 3412 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

We can do this by following steps:

a) write four RETLW instructions at address 40H to

main buffer (this can be done by hand editing buffer
or by loading file with proper content). The bottom 8
bits of each RETLW instruction are not important
now, because serialization will write correct serial
number bytes at bottom 8 bits of each RETLW
instruction.

The buffer content before starting device program will

look for example as following:

AddressData
0000040 3400 3400 3400 3400 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

164
Software

8 bits of each RETLW instructions are zeros, they

can have any value.
b) Set the serialization options as following:
S/N size 4 Bytes
Address: 40H
Start value: 1234ABCDH
Step: 1
S/N mode: BIN
Style: HEX
Save to buffer: LS Byte first
Check the option ”Split serial number at every N
byte(s)” and split value N set to 2.
(It means split of serial number to buffer at every
second Byte)

The correct serial number is set tightly before device

programming operation starts.
The buffer content of serial number when
programming the first device is:

Address Data
0000040 34CD 34AB 3434 3412 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

That’s it.

3. Following example uses the same serialization options as

Example number 2, instead the serial number split is set
to 3 and 4.

When ”Split serial number at every 3 byte(s)” is set, the

buffer content will look as:

Byte buffer organization:

Address Data
0000080 CD xx xx AB xx xx 34 xx xx 12 xx xx xx xx xx xx

Word16 buffer organization:

Address Data
0000040 xxCD ABxx xxxx xx34 12xx xxxx xxxx xxxx

When ”Split serial number at every 4 byte(s)” is set, the

buffer content will look as:

Byte buffer organization:

Address Data
0000080 CD xx xx xx AB xx xx xx 34 xx xx xx 12

Word16 buffer organization:

Address Data
0000040 xxCD xxxx xxAB xxxx xx34 xxxx xx12 xxxx
Advice: When you are not sure about effects of
serialization options, there is possible to test the real serial

165
ELNEC s. r. o.

number, which will be written to buffer. The test can be

made by following steps:

1. select wished serialization options in dialog

Serialization and confirm these by OK button
2. in dialog Device operation options set Insertion test and
Device ID check (if available) to Disabled
3. check there is no device inserted to programmer’s ZIF
socket
4. run Device Program operation (for some types of
devices it is necessary to select programming options
before programming will start)
5. after completing programming operation (mostly with
some errors because device is not present) look at the
main buffer (View/Edit buffer) at address where serial
number should be placed

Note: Address for Serialization is always assigned to actual

device organization and buffer organization that control
program is using for current device. If the buffer
organization is byte org. (x8), the Serialization Address will
be byte address. If the buffer organization is wider than
byte, e.g. 16 bit words (x16), the Serialization Address will
be word address.
Device / Device options / Serialization / From
file mode
Using the From-file method, serial values are read from the
user specified input file and written to buffer on address
specified in input file.
There are two user options: File name and Start label.

File name
File name option specifies the file name from which serial
addresses and values will be read. The input file for From
file serialization must have special format, which is
described in From file serialization file format below.

Start label
Start label defines the start label in input file. From defined
start label starts reading of serial values from input file.

From file serialization file format

From file serialization input file includes addresses and
arrays of bytes defining buffer addresses and data to write
to buffer. Input file has text type format, which structure is:

[label1] addr byte0 byte1 .. byten

...
[labeln] addr byte0 byte1 .. bytem , addr byte0 byte1 ... bytek
\_______________/ \__________________/
| |

166
Software

basic part optional part

; Comment

meaning is:

basic part
Basic part defines buffer address and array of bytes to
write to buffer. Basic part must be always defined after
label in line.

optional part
Optional part defines the second array of bytes and buffer
address to write to buffer. One optional part can be defined
after basic part of data.

label1, labeln - labels

Labels are identifiers for each line of input file. They are
used for addressing each line of file. The labels should be
unique. Addressing lines of file means, the required start
label entered by user defines line in input file from which
serial values reading starts.

addr -
Addr defines buffer address to write data following the
address.

byte0..byten, byte0..bytem, byte0..bytek -

Bytes arrays byte0..byten, byte0..bytem and byte0..bytek
are defining data, which are assigned to write to buffer.
Maximum count of bytes in one data field following the
address is 64 bytes. Data bytes are written to buffer from
address addr to addr+n.
The process of writing particular bytes to buffer is:
byte0 to addr
byte1 to addr + 1
byte2 to addr + 2
....
byten to addr + n

Optional part is delimited from the first data part by

character “ , “ (comma) and its structure is the same as in
the first data part, i.e. address and following array of data
bytes.

Characters with special use:

[ ] - labels must be defined inside square brackets

',' – character which delimiters basic part and optional part

of data

167
ELNEC s. r. o.

‘;’ - the semicolon character means the beginning of a

comment. All characters from „;„ to the end of line are
ignored. Comment can be on individual line or in the
end of definition line.
Note:
• Label names can contain all characters except ‘[‘ and ‘]’.
The label names are analysed as non case sensitive, i.e.
character ‘a’ is same as ‘A’, ‘b’ is same as ‘B’ etc..
• All address and byte number values in input file are
hexadecimal.
• Allowed address value size is from 1 to 4 bytes.
• Allowed size of data arrays in one line is in range from 1
to 64 bytes. When there are two data arrays in one line,
the sum of their size in bytes can be maximally 80 bytes.
• Be careful to set correct addresses. Address must be
defined inside device start and device end address
range. In case of address out of range, warning window
appears and serialization is set to disabled (None).
• Address for Serialization is always assigned to actual
device organization and buffer organization that control
program is using for current device. If the buffer
organization is byte org. (x8), the Serialization Address
will be byte address. If the buffer organization is wider
than byte, e.g. 16 bit words (x16), the Serialization
Address will be word address.

Example:

[nav1] A7890 78 89 56 02 AB CD ; comment1

[nav2] A7890 02 02 04 06 08 0A
[nav3] A7890 08 09 0A 0B A0 C0 ; comment2
[nav4] A7890 68 87 50 02 0B 8D
[nav5] A7890 A8 88 59 02 AB 7D

;next line contains also second definition

[nav6] A7890 18 29 36 42 5B 6D , FFFF6 44 11 22 33 99
88 77 66 55 16

; this is last line - end of file

In the example file six serial values with labels „nav1“,

„nav2“, ...“nav6“ are defined. Each value is written to buffer
on address $A7890. All values have size 6 bytes. The line
with „nav6“ label has also second value definition, which is
written to buffer on address $FFFF6 and has size 10 bytes,
i.e. the last byte of this value will be written to address
$FFFFF.

Note: Address for Serialization is always assigned to actual

device organization and buffer organization that control
program is using for current device. If the buffer

organization is byte org. (x8), the Serialization Address will

be byte address. If the buffer organization is wider than
byte, e.g. 16 bit words (x16), the Serialization Address will
be word address.
Device / Device options / Statistics
Statistics gives the information about actual count of device
operations, which were proceeded on selected type device. If
one device is corresponding to one device operation, e.g.
programming, the number of device operations will be equal to
number of programmed devices.

The next function of statistics is Count down. Count down

allows checking the number of device operations, and then
number of devices, on which device operations have to be
done. After each successful device operation the value of
count down counter is decremented. Count down has user
defined start number of devices to do. When count down value
reach zero, it means, specified number of devices is complete
and user message about complete count down will be
displayed.

Statistics dialog contains following options:

Check boxes Program, Verify, Blank, Erase and Read define

operations, after which statistics values increment.

Check box Count down sets Count down activity (enable or

disable). Edit box following the Count down check box defines
initial number of count down counter, from which count down
starts.

Statistics dialog can be also opened by pressing right mouse

button on Statistics panel and clicking displayed item Statistics.

Actual statistics values are displaying in main window of

control program in Statistics panel.

Statistics panel contains three statistics values – Success,

Failure, Total and two Count down information values Count
down and Remains.

Meaning of the values is:

Success number of operations which where successfully
completed
Failure number of operations which where not
successfully completed
Total number of all operations
Count down informs about Count down activity (Enabled or
Disabled)
Remains informs about remaining number of device
operations to do

Device / IC test
This command activates a test section for ICs separated by
type to any libraries (on distribution CD). First select an
appropriate library, wished device and then a mode for test
vectors run (LOOP, SINGLE STEP). Control sequence and
test results are displayed to LOG WINDOW. In case of need is
possible to define the test vectors directly by user. Detailed
description syntax and methods of creation testing vectors is
described in example_e.lib file, which is in programs
installation folder. Note. Because the rising/falling edges of
programmers are tuned for programming of chips, it may
happen the test of some chips fails, although the chips aren't
defective (counters for example).

Device / JAM/VME/...Player
Jam STAPL was created by Altera® engineers and is
supported by a consortium of programmable logic device
(PLD) manufacturers, programming equipment makers, and
test equipment manufacturers.

The Jam™ Standard Test and Programming Language

(STAPL), JEDEC standard JESD-71, is a standard file format
for ISP (In-System Programming) purposes. Jam STAPL is a
freely licensable open standard. It supports programming or
configuration of programmable devices and testing of
electronic systems, using the IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test Action
Group (JTAG) interface. Device can be programmed or
verified, but Jam STAPL does not generally allow other
functions such as reading a device.

The Jam STAPL programming solution consists of two

components: Jam Composer and Jam Player.
The Jam Composer is a program, generally written by a
programmable logic vendor, that generates a Jam file (.jam)
containing the user data and programming algorithm required
to program a design into a device.
The Jam Player is a program that reads the Jam file and
applies vectors for programming and testing of devices in a
JTAG chain.
The devices can be programmed in ZIF socket of the
programmer or in target system through ISP connector. It is
indicated by [PLCC44](Jam) or (ISP-Jam) suffix after name of
selected device in control program. Multiple devices are
possible to program and test via JTAG chain: JTAG chain
(ISP-Jam)

consists of a sequence of statements. Jam statement
consists of a label, which is optional, an instruction, and
arguments, and terminates with a semicolon (;).
Arguments may be literal constants, variables, or
expressions resulting in the desired data type (i.e.,
Boolean or integer). Each statement usually occupies
one line of the Jam program, but this is not required. Line
breaks are not significant to the Jam language syntax,
except for terminating comments. An apostrophe
character (') can be used to signify a comment, which is
ignored by the interpreter. The language does not specify

Programmer
Menu Programmer includes commands used for work with
programmers.

Programmer / Find programmer

This item selects a new type of programmer and
communication parameters. This command contains following
items:

177
ELNEC s. r. o.

Programmer - sets a new type of programmer for find. If a

Search all is selected, the control program finds all supported
programmers.
Establish communication - allows manual or automatic
establishing communication for a new programmer.
Speed - sets speed, if a manual establishing communication is
selected, which PC sends data into the programmer. Speed is
expressed as a percent from a maximal speed.

The communication speed modification is important for PCs

with "slow" LPT ports, which haven't sufficient driving power for
a PC<->programmer cable (laptop, notebook, ...). Use this
command, if you have any communication problems with
connected programmer on the LPT port of your PC (e.g.
control program reports a programmer absence, the
communication with the programmer is unreliable, etc.).

If automatic establishing communication is selected, then

control program sets a maximal communication speed.
Note: Items Establish communication and Speed are available
only for PREPROM-02aLV and SEEprog.

Port - selects a LPT port, which will be scanned for a

requested programmer. If All port is selected, the control
program scans all LPT ports, which are available on standard
addresses.

Address for special port - sets address of LPT port, if a

Special port is selected.

Pressing key <Enter> or button OK initiates scanning for

programmer by set parameters. There is same activity as at
start the control program. The command clears a list of default
devices without the current device, if the new selected
programmer supports this one.

This setting is saved to disk by command Options / Save

options.

Programmer / Refind programmer

This menu command is used to refind (reestablish
communication with) currently selected programmer.

To select other type of programmer, programmer

communication parameters and to establish communication
with newly selected programmer use menu Programmer /
Find programmer.

178
Software

Programmer / Handler
In dialog Handler a Handler type and Handler communication
parameters can be set. Handler is an external device for
special control of device operations in control program. When
None Handler is selected, this means default state of control
program, i.e. device operations are controlled directly by user
otherwise control program is in special mode, when device
operations are controlled automatically with co-operation with
Handler.

Dialog Handler contains following items:

Selected Handler select wished Handler type.

Search at port select a COM port, which will be scanned
for a requested Handler.

Pressing key <Enter> or button OK initiates scanning for

Handler by set parameters. If selected Handler type is None,
no Handler scanning will be processed. Current Handler
settings are saved to configuration file by command Options /
Save options or when control program is closed.
Handler is not available for sale.

Programmer / Module options

This option is used for multiple socket programmers for
defining MASTER socket and activity of each socket.
MASTER socket group box allows user to set socket which is
preferentially used for device reading operation.
Enable/Disable socket checkbox array allows user to set
enabling and disabling of each socket individually. Disabled
sockets are ignored for any device operation.

Programmer / Automatic YES!

This command is used for setting Automatic YES! mode. In
this mode you just put a device into ZIF socket and a last
operation will be repeated automatically. Program
automatically detects an insertion of a new device and runs
last executed operation without pressing any key or button. An
insertion of device into ZIF is displayed on the screen.
Repeated operation executing will be cancelled by pressing
key <ESC> during waiting for insert/remove a device to/from
ZIF.

After an operation with a device is executed, one of the OK or

ERROR (status) LEDs on the programmer will lights in
dependence on the result of an operation and the BUSY LED
will blinking.

179
ELNEC s. r. o.

If the program detects removal of a device, then status LED

will switched off, but the BUSY LED will still blinking to indicate
readiness of the program to repeat last operation with new
device.
After the program indicates one or more pins of (new) device in
the ZIF socket of the programmer, the BUSY LED will goes to
light continually. From this the program will wait a requested
time for insert the rest pins of new device. If a requested time
(Device insertion complete time) overflows and a device is not
correctly inserted, the program will lights the ERROR LED to
indicate this state. After new device was inserted correctly, the
program will switch off all status LEDs, except BUSY, and will
start an operation with new device.

This mode may be enabled or disabled by item Automatic

YES! mode. If a new programmer is selected Options / Find
programmer, this mode will be disabled.

In Response time is possible to set a time interval within must

be detected device in ZIF socket to accept an insertion of a
new device. Default is set standard interval. If socket adapter
is used then is recommended to set an elongated interval.

In Pins with capacitors bar may be entered a list of a pins

interconnected by capacitors (for example: if a converter,
which have connected capacitor between VCC and GND, is
used), which may makes problems at detecting insertion of a
new device.
List of pins of device is in form:
pinA, pinB, pinC....
Example: 4,6,17

In Device removal hold off time is possible to set a time

within the program will not insertion of new device into the
programmer's ZIF socket after a (old) device was removed
successfully. This interval is in seconds and must be from 1 to
120 (default value is 2 seconds).

In Device insertion complete time is possible to set a time

within all pins of the device have to be properly inserted after a
first pin(s) detected so that the program will not detects
incorrectly inserted device. This interval is in seconds and
must be from 1 to 120 (default value is 5 seconds).

This list is erased if a new device is selected by Device /

Select default or Device / Select device ...

This setting is saved to disk by command Options / Save

included in delivery programmer package. Be sure that
pins are interconnected properly (i.e. 1-1, 2-2, ..., 10-10).
3. Run selftest of ISP connector in PG4UW (Programmer /
Selftest ISP connector).
We recommend run this test every 6 months.

Programmer / Calibration test

Command executes test of programmer's calibration values.

Programmer / Create diagnostic report

Command Create Diagnostic report is used for writing more
particular diagnostic information to Log window and
consequently copy Log window content to clipboard. The Log
window content can be placed from clipboard to any text
editor. Diagnostic report is useful when error occurs in control
program or programmer and kind of the error is, that user can
not resolve it oneself and he must contact programmer
manufacturer. In this case when customer send message to
manufacturer about his problem it is good to send also
diagnostic report. Diagnostic report can help manufacturer to
localize the reason of error and resolve it sooner.

Options
The Options menu contains commands that let you view and
change various default settings.

Options / General options

General options dialog allows user to control following options
of program.
File options
File options page allows you to set file masks, auto-reload of
current file and choose file format recognizing for loaded files.

File format masks is used for setting file-name masks to use

as a filter for file listing in File / Save and File / Load file
window for all file formats. Mask must contain one of wildcards
(*, ?) at least and must be applied correctly by syntax.

Project file default extension is used for setting project files-

extension used as default extension in File / Load project and
File / Save project dialogs.

182
Software

In group When current file is modified by another process

can be set mode of reloading of actually loaded (current) file.
There are three choices:
1. Prompt before reloading file
2. Reload automatically
3. Ignore change scanning of current file
There are three situations when file modification is tested:
• switching to the control program from another
application
• selecting the device operation Verify or Program
• when repeat of last device operation is selected in
dialog "Repeat?"

Load file format allows to set mode of file format recognition

for loading files. When automatic file format is selected,
program analyses format of loading file and test file for each of
supported formats that are available in program. If file format
matches one of supported formats, the file is read to buffer in
detected format.
Manual file format allows user to select explicitly wished file
format from list of supported file formats. File may be loaded
no completely or incorrectly, if file format does not match to
user selected format.
Hex file options
This page contains several options for loading control by any
of HEX formats.
The first option sets erasing buffer (with desired value)
automatically before the loading by any of HEX formats.
The second option sets a negative offset, which is used for
data addresses modification by loading from any HEX file so,
that data can be written to existing buffer addresses. Manual or
Automatic negative offset mode can be set. We recommend
automatic set of negative offset in special cases only. This
option contain a heuristic analyze, which can treat some data
in file incorrectly. There are especially critical files, which
contain a fragmented addresses range and which exceeds a
size of selected device - some block can be ignored. Automatic
set of negative offset can be disabled by select of any special
devices. No address range in files associated with special
devices can be moved and no block can be removed from the
file when reading the file. For special devices following
negative offset options are available: Yes (negative offset is
turned on) and No (negative offset is not used).

Example:
A file contents data by Motorola S - format. A data block
started at address FFFF0H. It is a S2 format with length of
address array of 3 bytes. For all data reading you can set a
value of negative offset to FFFF0H. It means, that the offset
will be subtracted from current real addresses and so data will
be written from buffer address 0.

183
ELNEC s. r. o.

Warning: The value of negative offset is subtracted from real

address and therefore a result of subtraction can be negative
number. Because take care of correct setting of this value.
Language
This page allows you to select another language for user
interface such as menu, buttons, dialogs, information and
messages. It also allows to select wished help file in another
language. For another language support of user interface the
language definition file is required.
Sound
Sound page allows user to select the sound mode of program.
Program generates sounds after some activities, e.g. activities
on device (programming, verifying, reading, etc.). Program
generates sound also when warning or error message is
displayed. User can now select sound from Windows system
sound (required installed sound card), PC speaker or none
sound.

In the panel Programmer internal speaker sound settings is

possible to set sound options for some programmers with built-
in internal speaker. Sound beeps are then generated from
internal programmer speaker after each device operation for
indicating device operation result – good or bad result.
Log file
This options associates with using of Log window. All reports
for Log window can be written into the Log file too. The Log file
name is "Report.rep" as default. The control program creates
this file with name and directory specified in Log file name edit
box.
Following Log file options are available:

• No default, content of Log window is not copied to

Log file, i.e. all reports will be displayed to Log
window only
• New deletes old Log file and creates new one during
each start of control program
• Append adds Log window reports into existing Log file, If
file does not exist, the new file will be created

The Log file settings can be saved to disk by command

Options / Save options.
Display errors
This option allows to set a form of error displaying as a result
of programmed data verifying. Errors can be displayed to the
screen (max. 45 differences), saved to error file of differences
on the disk or it will not be displayed. In case the displaying
errors are turned off, the control program reports a warning
message in INFO window only. The default error file name is

184
Software

"Verify.err". The file name and directory can be user specified

in edit box Error file name.

Following Display errors settings are available:

• None does not display error values on screen nor to

Remote control
Remote control of PG4UW control program allows to control
some functions of PG4UW application by other application.
This is very suitable feature for integrating device programmer
to mass-production handler system or other useful application.

Remote application that controls PG4UW acts as Server.

Program PG4UW acts as Client. Communication between
PG4UW and remote control program is made via TCP protocol
- this allows the PG4UW to be installed on one computer and
remote control application to be installed on another
computer, and these computers will be connected together via
network.

Default TCP communication settings for remote control are:

Port: telnet Address: 127.0.0.1 or localhost

Address setting applies for PG4UW (Client) only. Port setting

applies for PG4UW (Client) and also for Server application.

Default settings allows to use remote control on one computer

(address localhost). PG4UW (Client) and remote control
Server have to be installed on the same computer.

Note: If firewall is installed on system, firewall can display

warning message when remote control Server or Client is
starting. When firewall is showing warning with question asking
to allow or deny network access for remote Server or Client,
please select 'Allow' option, otherwise remote control will not
work. Of course you can specify in firewall options more strict
rights to allow remote Server/Client access on specified
address and port only.

the programming of a large amount of the same type of
devices.

There are two ways how to switch program to Protected mode:

1. by using menu command Options / Protected mode.

This command displays password dialog. User has to
enter password twice to confirm the password is correct.
After password confirmation program switches to
Protected mode. The entered password is then used to
switch off Protected mode.
2. by reading project, that was previously saved in
Protected mode. For details see File / Save project.

To switch program from Protected mode to normal mode, use

the menu command Options / Normal mode. The ”Password
required" dialog appears. User has to enter the same
password as the password entered during switch to Protected
mode.

Other way to cancel Protected mode of program is closing of

program, because program Protected mode is active until
program is closed. The next program start will be to Normal
(standard) mode (the only exception is case of project loaded
by command line parameter name of project and the project
was saved in Protected mode).

Options / Save options

This command saves all settings that are currently supported
for saving, even if auto-save is turned off. Following options
are saved: options under the Options menu, ten last selected
devices, file history, main program window position and size.

Help
Pressing the <F1> key accesses the Help. When you are
selecting menu item and press <F1>, you access context-
sensitive help. If PG4UW is executing an operation with the
programmer <F1> generates no response.

The following Help items are highlighted:

• words describing the keys referred to by the current Help
• all other significant words
• current cross-references; click on this cross-reference to
obtain further information.

Since the Help system is continuously updated together

with the control program, it may contain information not
included in this manual.

Help / Supported devices

This command displays list of all devices supported by at least
one type of all supported programmers. It is useful especially
when user wants to find any device supported by at least one
type of programmers.
Prefix ”g_” before name of device means the device is
supported by multi-socket programmer.

Help / Supported programmers

This command displays information about programmers, where
supported this program.

Help / Device list (current programmer)

This command makes a list of all devices supported by current
programmer and saves it to ?????DEV.txt text file and
?????DEV.htm HTML file in the directory where control
program is run from. Marks ????? are replaced by abbreviated
name of current programmer, the device list is generated for.

Help / Device list (all programmers)

This command makes device lists for all programmers and
saves them to ?????DEV.TXT text files and ?????DEV.HTM
HTML files in the directory where control program is running
from. Characters ????? are replaced by abbreviated name of
programmers, the device lists are generated for.

Note: The control program loses all information about current

device after this command is executed. Reselect wished
device again by any of select methods in menu DEVICE.

Help / Device list (cross reference)

This command makes cross reference list of all devices
supported by all programmers available on market and
supported by this control program. The resulting list is in HTML
format and consists of following files:

- one main HTML file TOP_DEV.htm with supported device

manufacturers listed

Common notes

Software
PG4UW is common control program for all of the ELNEC
programmers. Thus, during work with him it is possible to find
some items, those refer not to current selected programmer.

Some special devices (e.g. Philips Coolrunner family) require

external DAT files, that aren’t present in standard PG4UW SW
delivery on CD. If you need to program these devices, look at
www.elnec.com, section Download.

You can start control program with different command line

parameters.
Basic rules for using of executive command line parameters:

1. command line parameters are not case sensitive

2. command line parameters can be used when first starting
of program or when program is already running
3. if program is already running, then any of command line
operation is processed only when program was not busy
(no operation was currently executing in program).
Program must be in basic state, i.e. main program
window focused, no modal dialogs displayed, no menu
commands opened or executed.
4. order of processing command line parameters when using
more parameters together is defined firmly as following:

1. Load file (/Load file:...)

2. Load project (/Prj:...)
3. EPROM/Flash select by ID
4. Program device (/Program[:switch])
5. Close of control program (/Close only together
with parameter /Program)

Available command line parameters:

/Axxx check programmer present on LPT port with
address xxx only
example: /A3bc
/SPP force PC <-> programmer communication in
unidirectional mode

Available executive command line parameters:

/Prj:<file_name> forces project load when program is

starting or even if program is already
running, <file_name> means full or
relative project file path and name
/Loadfile:<file_name> forces file load when program is
starting or even if program is already
running, <file_name> means full or

191
ELNEC s. r. o.

relative path to file that has to be

loaded, file format is detected
automatically
/Program[:switch] forces start of ”Program device”
operation automatically when program
is starting, or even if program is already
running, also one of following optional
switches can be used:
switch 'noquest' forces start of device programming
without question
switch 'noanyquest' forces start of device programming
without question and after operation on
device is completed, program doesn't
show "Repeat" operation dialog and
goes directly into main program
window
Examples:
1. /Program
2. /Program:noquest
3. /Program:noanyquest

/Close this parameter has sense together with

/Program parameter only, and makes
program to close automatically after
device programming is finished (no
matter if operation was successful or
no)
/Eprom_Flash_Autoselect[:xx]
forces automatic select EPROM or
FLASH by ID when program is starting
or even if program is already running.
xx means pins number of device in ZIF
(this time are valid 28 or 32 pins only)
and it is required just for older
programmers without insertion test
capability. For others programmers is
the value ignored.

Hardware
Due a large variety of parallel port types, a case may occur
when the programmer cannot "get concerted" with the PC. This
problem may be shown as none communication between the
PC and the programmer, or by unreliable communication. If
this behaviour occur, try to connect your programmer to some
other PCs or other parallel ports near you.

If you find none solution, please document the situation, i.e.,

provide us an accurate description of your PC configuration,
including some other circumstances bearing on the problem in
question, and advise the manufacturer of your problem. Don’t

forget please enter of PC type, manufacturer, speed, operation

system, resident programs; your parallel port I/O manufacturer
and type. Use please Device problem report form for this
purpose (see Appendix A).

ISP (In-System Programming)

Definition
In-system programming allows programming and
reprogramming of device positioned inside the end system.
Using a simple interface, the ISP programmer communicates
serially with the device, reprogramming nonvolatile memories
on the chip. In-system programming eliminates the physical
removal of chips from the system. This will save time and
money, both during development in the lab, and when updating
the software or parameters in the field.
Target device is the device (microcontroller, PLD, etc…),
which is to be in-system programmed.
Target system is the physical Printed Circuit Board (PCB),
which contains the device to be in-system programmed.
ISP programmer is programmer, which has in-system
programming capability (for example JetProg with ISP module,
BeeProg, SmartProg2, SmartProg, T51prog, PIKprog+…).

General rules for in-system programming

We recommended respect following rules to avoid damage PC,
ISP programmer, and target device or target system:
• Ensure common earth point for target system, ISP
programmer and PC.
• For laptop or other PC that is not connected to common earth
point: make hard - wired connection from laptop to common
earth point (for example use LPT or COM port D –
connector).
• Any devices connected to target system must be connected
to common earth point too.

193
ELNEC s. r. o.

Direction of connect ELNEC ISP

programmer to target system:
During in-system programming you connect two electrical
devices – ISP programmer and target system. Unqualified
connection can damage these devices.

Note: When you don’t keep below directions and you damage
programmer during in-system programming, it is damage of
programmer by unqualified manipulation and is out of warranty.

1. Turn off both devices – ISP programmer and target device.

2. Assign same GND potential for all devices, e.g. connect GND
of all devices by wire.
3. Insert one connector of ISP cable to ISP programmer, turn on
programmer and control program.
4. In control program select target device and operation options.
5. Start action on target device (read, program).
6. After direction of control program, connect other ISP cable
connector to target system and turn on it.
7. After direction of control program, disconnect other ISP cable
connector from target system and turn off it.
8. If you need another action on target device, you continue with
step 5.
The recommendation for design of target
system with ISP programmed device
The target system must be designed to allow all signals, which
are use for In-system programming to be directly connected to
ISP programmer via ISP connector. If target system use these
signals for other function, is necessary isolated these signals.
Target system mustn’t affect these signals during In-system
programming.
For in-system programmable devices manufacturers publish
application notes. Design of ELNEC programmers together
with respect of these application notes allow proper In-system
programming. Condition is exactly respect these application
notes. Applications notes, which ELNEC use in ISP
programmers, are published in www.elnec.com, section
Application notes.

Please, read some notes for following recommended circuits.

• Purpose of D1 diode is to protect the target circuit against a
higher voltage, which is provided by ISP programmer.
• If your target board supply differs from mentioned 5V,
choose please the Zener diode (D1) voltage according to
this supply voltage.
• We recommend to use resistors R1, R2, (R3) to separate
the target device from target system. If pins needed for ISP
programming are inputs in target system then separation
by resistors is sufficient and resistors make a low pass filter

194
Common notes

too. If pins are outputs, then use of resistors saves a

programming time. Of course the isolation resistors R1, R2,
(R3) can be replaced by switches or jumpers, if necessary.
In that case, during the ISP programming of target device
the switches (jumpers) must be open. But the using of
switches (jumpers) adds a next manipulation time to
programming procedure.

Other
Attention to multitasking OS's (Windows
95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP). There is needful for regular running of
control program for any ELNEC programmer that printer port,
on which is programmer connected, must be reserved for this
programmer only. Otherwise, any other program must not
simultaneously to use (or any way to modify) this printer port.

PG4UW SW can handle all modes of LPT port (full IEEE 1284
support), thus you don't need to configure LPT port for
connection of ELNEC programmers.

Please don't move Info window during BUSY LED is on -

watching circuit can be activate to switch the programmer in
safe status as in case communication PC-programmer error.

LPT port driver

For programmers connected through parallel LPT port, control
program requires correctly installed LPT port driver. LPT port
driver installation and uninstallation is made automatically by
installation program. Normally there are no problems with the
driver. But sometimes driver can not be initialized correctly. It is
especially in the case that no LPT1 port is present in the
Windows NT/2000/XP operating systems. When the LPT port
driver is not initialized, control program can not detect any LPT
ports in the system.

LPT driver requires port LPT1 to be present in the operating

system. Please check the parallel port LPT1 is present in the
system.

The short description, how to see LPT ports present in

operating system:

1. click to "Start" menu

2. click with right mouse button to "My computer" item and
select menu "Properties
3. in the "System properties" dialog select "Hardware"
page and click to "Device manager" button
4. in the "Device manager" dialog select "Ports (Com &
LPT)" (double click), it will show the list of all present
LPT and COM ports

There should be displayed at least one present LPT port.

If there are present one or more LPT ports but with numbers
other than LPT1, it is necessary to change one of the LPT

202
Common notes

ports to LPT1 port. Follow the steps bellow (continued from

steps 1. - 4.)

5. double click to selected LPT port to show properties of

the port
6. in the "LPT port properties" dialog select the page "Port
settings"
7. change number of LPT port to LPT1 by "LPT Port
Number" setting
8. click OK button
9. restart the operating system

(even if system does not require restart, it is necessary to

perform system restart to correctly initialize our LPT port driver)

That’s all. Our software should work properly with LPT

connected programmer.

When using programmer connected through USB, there is no

need of LPT port driver.

USB driver
For programmers connected through USB port, control
program requires correctly installed USB driver.

We recommend to install control program first and then

connect programmer to USB port. Windows will detect new
hardware as USB programmer automatically.

When the programmer is connected to USB port before control

program was installed, Windows will detect new hardware and
ask user to select driver installation method: automatically or
manually. To detect programmer correctly, control program
installation CD must be inserted to computer's CD-ROM drive
and following steps have to be done:

(driver installation steps bellow are used for Windows XP but

other Windows versions have similar steps)

STEP 1
The first time a new USB device is plugged into a Windows XP
system, a dialog box will appear indicating that the system has
found a new hardware device. There may also be a dialog box
that informs the user that a device data base is being built or
updated.

After these dialogs appear, the Found New Hardware Wizard

dialog box is displayed. Select "Install from a list or specific
location (Advanced)" and click "Next" to continue the
installation.

203
ELNEC s. r. o.

STEP 2
Make sure that "Search for the best driver..." is selected.
Select "Search removable media" and deselect "Include this
location in the search". Click "Next".
STEP 2A
During the install, a dialog will pop up stating, "The software
you are installing for this hardware...has not passed Windows
Logo testing..." Click "Continue Anyway."

STEP 3
The "Completing the Found New Hardware Wizard" will appear
once the programmer has been installed. Click "Finish" to end
the USB installation.

Appendix

Why is it important to use the latest version

of the control program?
• Semiconductor manufacturers continuously introduce new
devices with new package types, manufactured by new
technologies in order to support the need for flexibility, quality
and speed in product design and manufacturing. To keep
pace and to keep you up-to-date, we usually implement more
than 500 new devices into the control program within a year.
• Furthermore, a typical programmable device undergoes
several changes during its lifetime in an effort to maintain or
to improve its technical characteristics and process yields.
These changes often impact with the programming
algorithms, which need to be upgraded (the programming
algorithm is a set of instructions that tells the programmer
how to program data into a particular target device). Using
the newest algorithms in the programming process is the key
to obtaining high quality results. In many cases, while the
older algorithm will still program the device, they may not
provide the level of data retention that would be possible with
an optimal algorithm. Failure to not use the most current
algorithm can decrease your programming yields (more
improper programmed target devices), and may often
increase programming times, or even affect the long term
reliability of the programmed device.
• At least, we are making mistakes too ... .

Our commitment is to implement support for these new or

modified parts before or as soon as possible after their release,
so that you can be sure that you are using latest and/or optimal
programming algorithms that were created for this new device.

Appendix C - AlgOR service

(Algorithms On Request)
AlgOR is a free service, by which we respond, as flexible as
possible on the customer's request to implement programming
support for new devices. This service may be used also for
requesting new features of the control program.

AlgOR process is simple. The user sends to ELNEC a request

for additional support for XXX device to the control program
(we may ask for up-to-date data sheets and samples, if
needed). After completion, the user will obtain a new version of
the control program with requested features. We will, of
course, also return the borrowed samples. If we cannot satisfy
your requirements (too expensive, algorithms not available,
additionally module needed), we will promptly contact to you
and propose an appropriate solution.
