does not ask for further programming confirmation after
answering the first dialog.
▸ Display fuse warning messages
The user can choose if warning messages should be
displayed for some fuses. It is recommended to leave this
option on.
▸ Except for programming: Close status
window
This option closes the status window if no error occurs
during erasing, blank check, programming verification
and reading.
▸ After programming: Close status
window
This option closes the status window if no error occurs
during programming and the subsequent verification.
▸ Beep after successful finishing
With this option active, the program calls up the standard
Windows system beep if the operation (such as erasing,
programming, etc.) went smoothly.
▸ Beep after unsuccessful finishing
With this option active, the program calls up the standard
Windows system beep if an error or warning occurs during
the operation (such as erasing, programming, etc.).
▸ Turn off all sound for UP
With this option on, the program does not produce any
sounds.
▸ Delay for VDD switching on/off when
supplied from programmer
This option is important for programming PCB-placed
devices via an ICSP cable. It determines the length of the
delay after voltage is connected to or disconnected from
a device.
Both PRESTO and FORTE feature an overcurrent
protection. This means that a test for excessive current of
approximately 100 mA in power supply voltage is
performed after connecting power to the device and
expiration of the delay time set in Switch on.
Similarly the delay time set in Discharge specifies how
late after switching the power supply off a check should
be performed if no voltage is present any longer at the
pin.
If a blocking capacitor is connected to the device's power
supply pins (recommended), the voltage at the pin
changes more slowly. This could cause problems during
programming, but they can be eliminated by prolonging
the charging and discharging time.
Too long a time increases the risk of damaging the device
if connected incorrectly while too short a time could
cause programmer's circuits to still detect excessive
current flowing to the application's capacitors. A formula
for an approximate determination of the necessary time
can be found in Appendix B: Use of ICSP.
▸ Do not perform Device ID check before
programming
This option switches off the Device ID check before
programming.
▸ Do not perform blank check before cfg
word programming
Most rewritable devices can overwrite the configuration
word without erasing the whole device content. Skipping
the blank check of the configuration word utilizes this
possibility, i.e. the program ignores the not erased word.
This option does not apply to the whole-device
programming in which the device is erased completely. It
concerns only the configuration word and its overwriting.
