16 Getting Familiar With Your BASIC Interface Software
Xfer
Tools > Xfer sends a XFER command to the BASIC module. Use the
XFER command to transfer the currently selected program in ROM to
RAM and select RAM mode. After the XFER command executes, you
can edit the program in the same way you would edit any RAM
program.
Erase and Prog
From the Tools menu, you can choose the following options:
• Tools > Erase sends an ERASE command to the BASIC module.
The ERASE command deletes the last program stored in
EEPROM through the PROG command.
• Tools > Prog programs the resident EEPROM with the current
program in RAM.
• Tools > Prog1 programs the resident EEPROM with the port
information for all three ports, as well as MTOP information.
• Tools > Prog2 causes the first program stored in ROM (ROM 1)
to be run each time power is applied.
Hex Upload and Hex Download
From the Tools menu, you can choose the following options:
• Tools > Hex Upload opens a dialog that lets you enter/select a
file name (default extension .hex) and two numbers. These two
numbers are absolute microprocessor addresses. BASIC software
then sends the following command: PUSH ADDR1, ADDR2 :
CALL 101. The resulting data (in Intel Hex format) is saved to
the specified file.
