some message like the following is displayed:
"Invalid file type, or all file data overflow"
Solutions:
1) Confirm the file type and ensure the buffer being able to load all the files.
2) Find the offset address of the file. If it's difficult for the user, he can select the
option "Display the minimum start address after the file is loaded" to show the start
address of the file after the file is loaded. Thus the start address of file will be
displayed after the file is loaded. For example:
File Offset Address (min): 0x0000E0000 (Hex)
This means the offset address of the file is not 0. The user needs to move the data at
the address to the address 0 of the buffer. To do that, the user should reload the file
and enter E000 in the file start address edit line in the File Type dialogue box.
5.1.2 File Data Need to Be Separated for Programming
By using the File Load Mode in the File Type dialogue box, users can select the data
of a file and write the data to several chips of the same type. The operation mode is to
load the file multiple times according to the needs.
The first method: Based on byte (8bit), divide the file into two parts by the odd and
even address, and program the two parts into two chips respectively. When the file is
loaded, the user selects "Even (taking the first byte out of every two bytes)" in the
File Load Mode, the data in the address 0,2,4,6.... will be written to one chip. The
user selects "Odd (taking the second byte out of every two bytes)", the data at the
address 1.3.5.7.... will be written to the other chip.
The second method: Based on the byte (8-bit), take the first byte, the second byte, the
third byte and the fourth byte out of every four bytes, write the file data to four chips
respectively. When the file is loaded, the user selects the first byte out of every four
bytes in the File Load Mode box, the data at addresses 0, 4, 8, 12 (it is C in HEX)....
will be written to one chip. The rest can be reasoned out by analogy.
The third method: Based on the word (16-bit), write the former two bytes and the
latter two bytes of every four bytes to two chips respectively.
5.1.3 Program Two or More Files to One Chip
In this mode, you will need to load several files into the buffer first, and then write
them to the chip. The following example shows you how to program three files to a
chip.
