For the same function, click the "Compile" icon on the tool bar.
In the case of any syntax or compiling error, the "Output" window
pops up to display the error messages. If the compilation is
successfully done, the message "Build successfully, do you want to
download the program?" will be shown on the screen. Click the
[Yes] button if you want to download the program. (Refer to the
"Download" command for downloading operation.)
To download a compiled BASIC program to the target mobile
computer.
Click "Compile" on the menu bar and select "Download". In the
pop-up window, select the BASIC object file (.syn) to be
downloaded, and then click [Open]. Select the correct COM port
properties and then click [OK] to download.
Note that the associated system initialization file (.ini) has to be in
the same directory as the BASIC object file is; otherwise, the
default system settings will be downloaded instead.
