Procedure for Hardware/Software Setup of Flash Adapter
The following steps are required to set up the Hardware and software of the flash programming adapter.
1. Download the FLASH programming utility from the CD.
2. Connect one side of the ribbon cable to Adapter (J1) and other side to the user target board (Note: The user
board should have the 10-pin header for the cable). The pin outs for the header is shown in the figure 4, and

connected).
8. Switch on the power supply. Execute the < download> command from the Flash-programming interface.
9. If download is okay select the .mhx file (this file has been created after compiling the program) from the
user application software. Now select the <auto> command. A complete programming sequence will be
executed (Erase complete flash memory, blank check write file to flash memory and verify data). These
commands can be executed individually as well.
10. After successful execution of this command, set all the DIP switches to OFF, or disconnect the
programming cable.
