Sofei Technology SP8 series programmer Chapter 4 Offline Programming SP8-F,SP8-FXSupport offline programming, in the offline mode, the programmer does not need to connect to the computer. Programmer built-in128MbitData storage, no additional storage device required. The offline function has the characteristics of simple use and high burning efficiency. When the programmer works in the offline mode, it will automatically detect the chip placement, start the programming work, and prompt the programming result through the status indicator and built-in buzzer.

Sofei Technology SP8 series programmer ISPPower Mode ISPDuring programming, the target chip has two power supply modes to choose from. power supply mode can beFlyPROset in the operating options of the software. ⚫ powered by programmer That is, the programmer provides voltage to the target board, and the power supply voltage is3.3Vor5V(existFlyPROset in the operating options of the software). In this mode, if the programmer detects that the target board power supply already exists, it will give a power supply conflict error message.
