5.5.1 Toolbar
A toolbar is a panel with quick selection buttons located
under the program menu (see Program Controls).
If you want to remove the toolbar, simply uncheck the
Display icons and descriptions on the toolbar button
options in the Settings menu as described in Program
settings.
5.5.2 Status Bar
The status bar is a panel in the bottom part of the window
(see Program Controls). It presents information on the
programmer, the device, changes to the file since the last
saving, etc.
Individual parts of the status bar react to double-clicking
and to the context menu that opens after right-clicking.
If you want to hide or re-display the status bar, choose
Program settings ➙ Panels ➙ Display the status bar
in the lower part of the window.
5.5.3 Menus
The following texts describe in detail individual items in
the UP software menus.
Menu commands can be triggered with mouse by clicking
on a particular menu item or from the keyboard by
pressing the key together with the shortcut, i.e. the
underlined letter in the menu.
The menu bar consists of the following menus
(categories):
• File Menu
• Edit Menu
• View Menu
• Device Menu
• Options Menu
• Help Menu
File Menu
File ➙ New
Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+N
The program creates a new empty file. If the currently
open file has not been saved, the program prompts the
user to save it.
File ➙ Open...
Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+O
The program opens the Windows standard dialog listing
the files saved on the disc. The supported file formats are
described in Appendix C: Intel-HEX File Format. Files with
extensions .hex or .a43 are loaded as Intel-HEX, others as
binary. There are also filters available making it possible
to open all files as .hex or as .bin.
File ➙ Open next file...
The program imports another .hex or .bin file with an
optional offset. This function is useful if the user needs to
load another file into device's memory. Files with
extensions .hex or .a43 are loaded as Intel-HEX, others as
.bin.
For example, this command provides for merging of
several .hex files (e.g. bootloader + program).
