more details, please refer to the related user manuals.

3.2.2 Offline Programming
Offline Programming means that the Nu-Link Adapter can update the firmware of the NuMicro™
Family single chip directly without accessing software programs (as shown in Figure 3-6). Offline
programming is useful for mass production since the original code or firmware file does not need to be
delivered and only the Nu-Link Adapter is needed for mass production. In addition, the Nu-Link
Adapter supports “Limited Offline Programming,” which can effectively control the authorized number
of the firmware. For details, please refer to the ICP Tool User Manual.
