CipherLab BASIC Programming Part I
1.3.3 DOWNLOAD BASIC OBJECT FILES
Use the BASIC Compiler or the standalone BASIC download utility, Synload.exe, to
download a compiled BASIC program. Synload.exe provides only the download function
of the BASIC Compiler, that is, it cannot be used to view or edit any BASIC code.
Both the .ini and .syn files must be downloaded to the target mobile computer. Be careful
that if the .ini file is missing, the BASIC Compiler will download the default settings
instead. In this case, it may cause errors during execution. In contrast to the BASIC
Compiler, Synload.exe will not process the downloading if the .ini file is missing, and an
error message will be shown on the display.
After the BASIC object file is downloaded, the target mobile computer will reboot itself to
execute the BASIC program. If any run-time error occurs, an error message will be
shown on the display. Please refer to Appendix VI — Run-Time Error Table
for a list of
run-time errors. If the program is not running as desired, modify the BASIC source code
and download it to the target mobile computer again.
