Flash Program 205/210/212 Indicator (SMT Version)
Items required:
PC with Microsoft Windows OS and USB port
AVR-ISP program kit: Either AVRISP-U or AVR-USB
Upload and save the indicator software file to a location on your computer such as
Documents.
Important! Confirm that the indicator software is in a hex file format where the file name
ends with .hex such as 200rev2.6.2.hex or if custom software such as SO123456.hex. Should
the file be compressed, the file name will end with .zip such as 200rev2.6.2.zip. Zip files must
be decompressed before they can be loaded into the indicator. To decompress the file save
the .zip file to a location on your computer that will be easy to locate like Documents, then
open the file. The window will have an option to Extract all files (See Figure 1) click on this
and use the folder extraction wizard to decompress and save the file (s). Ensure that you
select a location to save the file to such as Documents so you can locate the file when using
the AVR programmer.
