4.4 Functions added to QCPU-A
This section describes the new functions added to QCPU-A (A mode) which are not
available with A2USHCPU-S1.
4.4.1 Boot operation from built-in ROM
Boot operation can be performed by booting parameters and sequence programs from the
built-in ROM to the built-in RAM at start-up.
The boot operation from the built-in ROM allows the retention of sequence programs
without using batteries even when the power is off.
The following shows the procedure for the boot operation from the built-in ROM:
(1) Operation methods
There are two methods to operate QCUP-A: The RAM operation uses the built-in
RAM. The boot operation uses the built-in ROM and boots parameters and sequence
programs from the built-in ROM to the built-in RAM at start-up.
QCPU-A allows checking the current operation method by setting DIP switch 3 and
M9073. The following table shows the setting combination.
(a) Procedure for boot program (at start-up only)
How to boot program from the built-in ROM to the built-in RAM
1) Set DIP switch 3 to ON.
2) Turn on or reset the power supply. (BOOT LED turns on.)
(b) Procedure for write to built-in ROM
How to write a program from built-in RAM to built-in ROM
1) Set DIP switch 3 to ON and turn on M9073 "2" is stored in D9076 and "1"
is stored in M9076.
2) Start writing to the built-in ROM. (M9074 is turned on.)
3) When writing to the built-in ROM is successfully completed, M9075 turns on
and D9075 stores the result of writing to the built-in ROM operation.(M9074 is
turned on.)
4) To repeat writing, turn off M9074 once and turn it on again.
(When M9074 is turned off, M9075 is turned off.)
