Tools For Making A Programmed Rom; Writing A Program To Memory (Eprom) With An Fp Rom Writer; Writing A Program To Memory (Eprom) With Npst-Gr Software And A Commercially Available Rom Programmer - Panasonic FP-M Hardware Manual

2. Tools for Making a Programmed ROM

• Using an FP ROM writer or a commercially available ROM programmer, the contents of the FP-M control board's
internal RAM can be written to ROM (memory).
• The following types of ROM (memory) are available:
- Memory (EPROM): AFP5202
Memory for storing programs. Writing is done with an FP ROM writer or a commercially available ROM
programmer.
- Master memory (EEPROM): AFP5207
Memory for copying programs. Writing is done with attaching a master memory on the user memory socket.

1) Writing a program to memory (EPROM) with an FP ROM writer

• The content of the FP-M control board's internal RAM is written directly to the memory (EPROM).
Necessary tools
• FP ROM writer: AFP5651
• Memory (EPROM): AFP5202
• FP1 peripheral cable
0.5 m/1.640 ft.: AFP15205
3 m/9.843 ft.: AFP1523
Note:
• Refer to page 106, "5-7. How to Program ROM"
and "FP ROM WRITER Technical Manual", for
details about programming ROM.
2) Writing a program to memory (EPROM) with NPST-GR Software and a commercially
available ROM programmer
[Program with NPST-GR Software → Commercially available ROM programmer's internal memory →
Memory (EPROM)]
Necessary tools
• Computer: Commercially available personal computer
(IBM PC-AT or 100 % compatible machine)
System required:
- Main memory: 550 KB or more free
- EMS: 800 KB or more free
- Hard disk space: 2 MB or more
- Operating system: MS-DOS Ver. 3.30 or higher
- Video mode (display mode): EGA or VGA
• NPST-GR Software Ver. 3: AFP266538
• RS232C cable: Needs to be made to match the specifications
of the commercially available ROM programmer.
• Commercially available ROM programmer:
We recommend Aval Data Corporation's PECKER 11.
• Memory (EPROM): AFP5202
Note:
• The .EXE files of NPST-GR Software are
compressed in the system disks. When installing
NPST-GR, you will have to expand them.
