These PC requirements are valid for 2.66/01.2010 version of control program for
programmers. For other version see www.elnec.com.
Free disk space requirement depends also on used IC device size and number of attached
programming sites. For large devices the required free space on disk will be approximately
1000MB + 2x Device size x number of programming sites attached to this PC.
Very easy indication, if your PC in hardware/software configuration is good enough for the
current software version and current situation with PG4UW/PG4UWMC, is to run Windows
task manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del) and see the performance folder. It have to be max. 80% of CPU
usage at full run of programming system.

Why is it important to use the latest version of the control
program?
• Semiconductor manufacturers continuously introduce new devices with new package types,
manufactured by new technologies in order to support the need for flexibility, quality and
speed in product design and manufacturing. To keep pace and to keep you up-to-date, we
usually implement more than 5000 new devices into the control program within a year.
• Furthermore, a typical programmable device undergoes several changes during its lifetime
in an effort to maintain or to improve its technical characteristics and process yields. These
changes often impact with the programming algorithms, which need to be upgraded (the
programming algorithm is a set of instructions that tells the programmer how to program
data into a particular target device). Using the newest algorithms in the programming
process is the key to obtaining high quality results. In many cases, while the older algorithm
will still program the device, they may not provide the level of data retention that would be
possible with an optimal algorithm. Failure to not use the most current algorithm can
decrease your programming yields (more improper programmed target devices), and may
often increase programming times, or even affect the long term reliability of the programmed
device.
• We are making mistakes too...
Our commitment is to implement support for these new or modified parts before or as soon as
possible after their release, so that you can be sure that you are using latest and/or optimal
programming algorithms that were created for this new device.
• free technical support (phone/fax/e-mail).
• free lifetime software update via Web site.
We also offer the following new services in our customer support program: Keep-Current and
AlgOR.
•Keep-Current is a service by which ELNEC ships to you the latest version of the control
program for programmer and the updated user documentation. A Keep-Current service is
your hassle-free guarantee that you always have access to the latest software and
documentation, at minimal cost. For more information see

BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+
Introduction
BeeHive204 is very fast universal 4x 48-pindrive concurrent multiprogramming system
designed for high volume production programming with minimal operator effort. The chips are
programmed at near theoretical maximum programming speed.
BeeHive4+ is fast universal 4x 48-pindrive concurrent multiprogramming system
designed for high volume production programming with minimal operator effort. The chips are
programmed at near theoretical maximum programming speed.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ consist of four independent isolated universal programming
modules, based on the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer hardware. Therefore the sockets
can run asynchronously (concurrent programming mode). Each programming module starts
programming at the moment the chip is detected to be inserted in the socket properly independently on the status of other programming modules. It result three programming
modules works while you replace the programmed chip at the fourth.
Modular construction of hardware - the programming modules works independently - allows
for continuing operation when a part of the circuit becomes inoperable. It also makes service
quick and easy.
Hands-free operation: asynchronous and concurrent operation allows a chip to begin
programming immediately upon insertion of a chip. The operator merely removes the finished
chip and inserts a new chip. Operator training is therefore minimized...
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ support all kinds of types and silicon technologies of today and
tomorrow programmable devices without family-specific module. You can be sure the next
devices support require the software update and (if necessary) simple package converter
(programming adapter), therefore the ownership cost are minimized.
Using built-in in-circuit serial programming (ISP) connector, the programmer is able to
program ISP capable chips in circuit.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ provide very competitive price coupled with excellent hardware
design for reliable programming. It has probably best "value for money" programmer in this
class.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ provide very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven
hardware and execution of time-critical routines inside of the programmer. It is at least so fast
than competitors in this category, for many chips much faster than most competitors. As a
result, when used in production this programmer waits for an operator, and not the other way
round.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ interfaces with the IBM PC/compatible, portable or desktop
personal computers through USB (2.0) port.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ provides a banana jack for ESD wrist straps connection to easy-toimplement the ESD protection control and also other banana jack for earth wire.
17
FPGA based totally reconfigurable 48 powerful TTL pindrivers provide H/L/pull_up/pull_down
and read capability for each pin of socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality highspeed circuitry to deliver signals without overshoot or ground bounce for all supported
devices. Pin drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of
today's advanced low-voltage devices.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ performs on each programming module device insertion test
(wrong or backward position) and contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before it
programs each device. These capabilities, supported by overcurrent protection and
signature-byte check help prevent chip damage due to operator error.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ have the selftest capability, which allows run diagnostic part of
software to thoroughly check the health of the each programming module.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ have a built-in protection circuits for eliminate damage of
programmer and/or programmed device due to environment or operator failure. All ZIF socket
pins of BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ programmer are protected against ESD up to 15kV.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ perform programming verification at the marginal level of supply
voltage, which, obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long data retention.
Various socket converters are available to handle device in PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP,
TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN (MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.
BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program with pulldown menu, hot keys and on-line help. Selecting of device is performed by its class, by
manufacturer or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, program, verify, erase) are boosted
by some test functions (insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special functions
(autoincrement, production mode - start immediately after insertion of chip into socket).
All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format detection and conversion during
load of file.
The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign individual serial numbers to
each programmed device - or simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification signatures from a file.
The software also provides a lot of information about programmed device. As a special, the
drawings of all available packages, explanation of chip labeling (the meaning of prefixes
and suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip are provided.
The software provide full information for ISP implementation: Description of ISP connector
pins for currently selected chip, recommended target design around in-circuit programmed
chip and other necessary information.
The remote control feature allows Pg4uw software to be flow controlled by other application
– either using .BAT file commands or using DLL file. For BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ is remote
control limited for ISP programming only. Please use BeeHive204AP for automated off line
programming.

Action Group (JTAG) interface).
VME files are interpreted by VME Player. VME file is a compressed binary variation of SVF
file and contains high-level IEEE 1149.1 bus operations. VME files are generated by design
software which is provided by manufacturer of respective programmable device. Chips are
programmed in ZIF or through ISP connector (IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test Action Group (JTAG)
interface).
Multiple devices are possible to program and test via JTAG chain: JTAG chain (ISP-Jam) or
JTAG chain (ISP-VME).
It is important to remember that in most cases new devices require only a software update
due to the BeeHive204 / BeeHive4+ is truly universal programmer. With our prompt service
you can have new devices can be added to the current list within hours!
Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand components and careful
manufacturing and burning allows us to provide a three-year warranty on parts and labor for

Manipulation with the programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert it into the open ZIF socket (the
lever is up) and close socket (the lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket on the programmer's cover. The
programmed device is necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the socket
when LED BUSY light off.
Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target device and the programmer
itself against either short or long-term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target device due to incorrect, userselected programming parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced interruption
of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by removing the physical connection to the
programmer, but the content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined. Don't
unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work with devices (LED BUSY shine).

contact check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before it programs each device. These
capabilities, supported by overcurrent protection and signature-byte check help prevent
chip damage due to operator error.
The selftest capability allows running diagnostic part of software to thoroughly check the
health of the programmer.

BeeProg2 / BeeProg+
Built-in protection circuits eliminate damage of programmer and/or programmed device due
environment or operator failure. All the inputs of the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer,
including the ZIF socket, ISP connector, connection to PC and power supply input, are
protected against ESD up to 15kV.
BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer performs programming verification at the marginal
level of supply voltage, which, obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long
data retention.
Various socket converters are available to handle device in PLCC, SOIC, PSOP, SSOP,
TSOP, TSSOP, TQFP, QFN (MLF), SDIP, BGA and other packages.
BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program with pulldown menu, hot keys and on-line help. Selecting of device is performed by its class, by
manufacturer or simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, program, verify, erase) are boosted
by some test functions (insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special functions
(autoincrement, production mode - start immediately after insertion of chip into socket).
All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format detection and conversion during
load of file.
The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign individual serial numbers to
each programmed device - or simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification signatures from a file.
The software also provides a lot of information about programmed device. As a special, the
drawings of all available packages, explanation of chip labeling (the meaning of prefixes
and suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip are provided.
The software provide full information for ISP implementation: Description of ISP connector
pins for currently selected chip, recommended target design around in-circuit programmed
chip and other necessary information.
The remote control feature allows being Pg4uw software flow controlled by other application
– either using .BAT file commands or using DLL file. DLL file, examples
(C/PAS/VBASIC/.NET) and manual are part of standard software delivery.
Jam files of JEDEC standard JESD-71 are interpreted by Jam Player. Jam files are
generated by design software which is provided by manufacturer of respective programmable
device. Chips are programmed in ZIF or through ISP connector (IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test
Action Group (JTAG) interface).
VME files are interpreted by VME Player. VME file is a compressed binary variation of SVF
file and contains high-level IEEE 1149.1 bus operations. VME files are generated by design
software which is provided by manufacturer of respective programmable device. Chips are
programmed in ZIF or through ISP connector (IEEE 1149.1 Joint Test Action Group (JTAG)
interface).
Multiple devices are possible to program and test via JTAG chain: JTAG chain (ISP-Jam) or
JTAG chain (ISP-VME).
31
Attaching of more BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmers to the same PC (through USB port) is
achieved a powerful multiprogramming system, which support as many chips, as are
supported by BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer and without obvious decreasing of
programming speed. It is important to know, there is a concurrent multiprogramming - each
programmer works independently and each programmer can program different chip, if
necessary.
It is important to remember that in most cases new devices require only a software update
due to the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ is truly universal programmer. With our prompt service you
can have new devices can be added to the current list within hours!
Advanced design including protection circuits, original brand components and careful
manufacturing and burning allows us to provide a three-year warranty on parts and labor for
the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ (limited 25,000-cycle warranty on ZIF socket).

10) USB connector for PC ↔ BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ communication cable
Connecting BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ to the PC
Using USB port
In this case, order of connecting USB cable and power supply to programmer is irrelevant.
Using LPT port
Switch off PC and programmer. Insert the communication cable included with your BeeProg2
/ BeeProg+ programmer package to a free printer port on your PC. If your computer is
equipped with only one printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the printer cable.
Connect the opposite cable end to the programmer. Screw on both connectors to counterconnectors. This is very important. It may be uncomfortable to switch between printer cable
and programmer cable, though it is not recommended to operate the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+
programmer through a mechanical printer switch. Use of an electronic printer switch is
impossible. But you can install a second multi-I/O in your computer, thus obtaining a
supplementary printer port, says LPT2. So your printer may remain on LPT1 while the
programmer on LPT2.
Switch on the PC.
Connect the connector “8” to a mains plug using attached cable. At this time all 'work result'
LEDs (and 'POWER' LED) light up successive and then switch off. Once the POWER LED
lights with low brightness then the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ programmer is ready to run.
Next run the control program for BeeProg2 / BeeProg+.
Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when connecting the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+,
proceed as follows:
•When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert the communications cable
and THEN the power-supply connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST disconnect the power-supply
connector and THEN the communication cable.
From BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ point of view the connecting and disconnecting sequence is
irrelevant. Protection circuits on all programmer inputs keep it safe. But think of your PC please.

Problems related to the BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ PC
interconnection, and their removing
If you have any problems with BeeProg2 / BeeProg+ PC interconnection, see section
Common notes please.
Manipulation with the programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert into the open ZIF socket (the
lever is up) and close socket (the lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket on the programmer's cover. The
programmed device is necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the socket
when LED BUSY light off.
Note: Programmer's protection electronics protect the target device and the programmer
itself against either short or long-term power failures and, partly, also against a PC failure.
However, it is not possible to grant the integrity of the target device due to incorrect, userselected programming parameters. Target device may be not destroyed by forced interruption
of the control program (reset or switch-off PC), by removing the physical connection to the
programmer, but the content of actually programmed cell may remains undefined. Don't
unplug the target device from the ZIF socket during work with device (LED BUSY shine).

Microwire (93Cxx) and SPI (25Cxx) interface types. Using build-in in-circuit serial
programming (ISP) connector programmer is capable to program MCS51 family
microcontrollers and Atmel AVR microcontrollers in serial way.
T51prog2 provides very competitive price but excellent hardware design for reliable
programming. Nice "value for money" in this class.
T51prog2 provides very fast programming due to high-speed FPGA driven hardware and
USB 2.0 full speed port.
T51prog2 interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or higher, portable or desktop
personal computers through USB port, what is important for new, LPT-port-less computers
(notebooks for example).
T51prog2 has 40 powerful TTL pindrivers provide H/L/pull_up/pull_down and read capability
for each pin of socket. Advanced pindrivers incorporate high-quality high-speed circuitry to
deliver programming without overshoot or ground bounce for all supported devices. Pin
drivers operate down to 1.8V so you'll be ready to program the full range of today's advanced
low-voltage devices.
The programmer performs device insertion test (wrong or backward position) and contact
check (poor contact pin-to-socket) before it programs each device. These capabilities,
supported by signature-byte check help prevent chip damage due to operator error.
T51prog2 performs programming verification at the marginal level of supply voltage, which,
obviously, improves programming yield, and guarantees long data retention
T51prog2 programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program with pull-down menu, hot
keys and on-line help. Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer or
simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, program, verify, erase) are boosted
by some test functions (insertion test, signature-byte check), and some special functions
(autoincrement).

Introduction
SEEprog is universal programmer of all serial EEPROM in 8-pin DIL package. SEEprog
programs EEPROM with interface IIC, SPI and Microwire, and also specialty as for example
digital thermometers. The programmer supports LV (3.3V) devices too.
SEEprog interfaces with the IBM PC Pentium compatible or higher, portable or desktop
personal computers. Programmer allows you to directly connect to your PC through any
standard parallel (printer) port - no special interface card is needed.
SEEprog programmer is driven by an easy-to-use control program with pull-down menu, hot
keys and on-line help. Selecting of device is performed by its class, by manufacturer or
simply by typing a fragment of vendor name and/or part number.
Standard device-related commands (read, blank check, program, verify, erase) are boosted
by some test functions, and some special functions (autoincrement).
All known data formats are supported. Automatic file format detection and conversion during
load of file.
The rich-featured autoincrement function enables to assign individual serial numbers to
each programmed device - or simply increments a serial number, or the function enables to
read serial numbers or any programmed device identification signatures from a file.
The software also provides a lot of information about programmed device. As a special, the
drawings of all available packages, explanation of chip labeling (the meaning of prefixes
and suffixes at the chips) for each supported chip are provided.
For SEEprog programmer are available DIL to SOIC socket converters.

Connecting SEEprog programmer to PC
Switch off the PC and programmer. Insert the connection cable, included in the SEEprog
programmer delivery, to the free printer port of PC. If your computer is equipped with only one
printer port, substitute the programmer cable for the printer cable. Connect the opposite cable
end to the programmer. Screw on both connectors to counter connectors. This is very
important mainly for the connector to programmer. Though replacing the printer cable by the
programmer cable is uncomfortable, it is not recommended to operate the SEEprog
programmer through a mechanical printer switch. Use of an electronic printer switch isn't
possible.
Connect the mains connector of the power supply (or wall-plug power supply self) to a mains
plug, connect the connector to the appropriate programmer's connector. Then, on the
programmer lights up LED POWER and the programmer SEEprog is ready to run. Next
switch on the PC and run the control program.
Caution! If you don't want to switch off your PC when connecting the SEEprog, proceed as
follows:
75
ELNEC s. r. o.
•When connecting the programmer to the PC: FIRST insert the communications cable
and THEN the power-supply connector.
• When disconnecting the programmer from the PC: FIRST disconnect the power-supply
connector and THEN the communication cable.
Problems related to the SEEprog PC interconnection, and their
removing
The LPT port have to be set to SPP (standard parallel port) mode. In some cases BIOS of
computer don't allow to switch proper mode by software, therefore we recommend to do it
manually. If you have any problems with SEEprog PC interconnection, see section
Common notes please.
Manipulation with the programmed device
After selection of desired device for your work, you can insert into the open ZIF socket (the
lever is up) and close socket (the lever is down). The correct orientation of the programmed
device in ZIF socket is shown on the picture near ZIF socket on the programmer's. Only 8 bottommost pins of the DIL14 ZIF socket are active! The programmed device is
necessary to insert into the socket also to remove from the socket when LED BUSY light off.
Warning! SEEprog programmer hasn’t protection devices, which protect the content of
programmed device against critical situations, for example power failures and PC failure
(interrupted cable...). Moreover, a device is usually destroyed in the programming mode due
to forced interruption of the control program run (Reset or switching the computer off) due to
removing the connecting cable, or unplugging the programmed device from the ZIF socket.
Incorrectly placed device in the ZIF socket can cause its damage or destruction.

Pg4uw-the programmer software
Program Pg4uw.exe is common control program for all ELNEC programmers. We guarantee
running of these programs under all of above mentioned operating systems without any
problems. Also background operation under Windows is error-free.
Using the programmer software
The control program delivered by ELNEC, included on the
CD in your package, is granted to be free from any viruses
at the moment of delivery. To increase their safety our
programs include a special algorithm for detecting possible
virus infections.
Run the control program
In Windows environment: double click to icon Pg4uw.
After start, control program Pg4uw automatically scan all existing ports and search for the
connected any ELNEC programmer. Program Pg4uw is common for all the ELNEC
programmers, hence program try to find all supported programmers.
Notes: When Pg4uw is started, program is checked for its integrity. Than the program display
a standard user menu and waits for your instructions.
If the control program cannot communicate with the programmer, an error message appears
on the screen, including error code and description of possible reasons (disconnected
programmer, bad connection, power supply failure, incompatible printer port...). Eliminate the
error source and press any key. If error condition still exists, the program resumes its
operation in the demo mode and access to the programmer is not possible. If you cannot find
the cause of the error, follow the instructions in Troubleshooting section. In addition, the
control program checks communication with programmer prior to any operation with the

when loading files with Motorola representation of byte order in file (big endian). Standard
load file is using little endian byte order.
Note: Big-endian and little-endian are terms that describe the order in which a sequence of
bytes are stored in computer memory. Big-endian is an order in which the "big end" (most
significant value in the sequence) is stored first (at the lowest storage address). Little-endian
is an order in which the "little end" (least significant value in the sequence) is stored first. For
example, in a big-endian computer, the two bytes required for the hexadecimal number 4F52
would be stored as 4F52H in storage address 1000H as: 4FH is stored at storage address
1000H, and 52H will be at address 1001H. In a little-endian system, it would be stored as
524FH (52H at address 1000H, and 4FH at address 1001H).
Number 4F52H is stored in memory:
Address Big endian system Little endian system
1000H 4FH 52H
1001H 52H 4FH
Panel Buffer offset for loading
Panel Buffer offset for loading contains one-shot offset setting for loading data from file to
buffer. The setting is used to specify optional offset of loaded data to store to buffer. When
Load file dialog window is opened, offset has always default setting None. It means, no offset
is used to store read data in buffer.
Available offset options are:
None this setting means, no offset is applied for loading data from file to buffer.
Positive offset set of offset value, which is added to current address to store data to buffer.
This offset is available for all formats and is used in x8 format, if current
buffer organization is x8, or in x16 format, if current buffer organization is
x16.
Negative offset mode has two options:
Negative offset and Automatic negative offset - set by two ways: manual or automatic.
For manual set use option Negative offset and put wished offset value to its edit box.
For automatic offset detection use option Automatic negative offset. This value is subtracted
from current address for save data to buffer.
Negative offset value (manually defined or automatically detected) is subtracted from current
buffer address for store data to buffer.
Negative offset is applied only for all HEX file formats and is using always x8 format. Negative
offset settings are ignored for binary files and other non-HEX files.

Notes:
• Since the value of negative offset is subtracted from real address, the result of subtraction
can be negative number. Therefore take care of correct setting of this value!
• We recommend automatic set of negative offset in special cases only. This option
contains a heuristic analyze, which can treat some data in file incorrectly. There are
especially critical files, which contain a fragmented addresses range and which exceeds a
size of selected device - some block can be ignored.
• Automatic negative offset option is not available for some kinds of special devices, that
require HEX files with exactly specified blocks used for the devices - for example
Microchip PICmicro devices. For these special devices, there are available only manual
offset settings (None, Positive offset, Negative offset).
Example for negative offset using:
A file contains data by Motorola S - format.
A data block started at address FFFF0H.
It is a S2 format with length of address array of 3 bytes.
For all data reading you can set Negative offset option and value of negative offset to
FFFF0H.
It means, that the offset will be subtracted from current real addresses and so data will be
written from buffer address 0.
List of file format codes and error codes
There can occur some errors during file download in some of supported formats. The error is
written to LOG window in face "Warning: error #xxy in line rrr", xx is file format code, y is error
code and rrr is line number in decimal.
File format codes:
#00y - binary
#10y - ASCII Space
#20y - Tektronix
#30y - Extended Tektronix
#40y - Motorola
#50y - MOS Technology
#60y - Intel HEX
Load file error codes:
#xx1 - bad first character - header
#xx2 - bad character in current line
#xx3 - bad CRC
#xx4 - bad read address
#xx5 - bad length of current line
#xx6 - too big negative offset
#xx7 - address is out of buffer range
#xx8 - bad type of selected file format
#xx9 - the file wasn't loaded all

File / Save
Saves data in the buffer, which has been created, modified, or read from a device onto a
specified disk. The file format of saved file can be chosen from supported formats list box.
95
There can be also entered the Buffer start and Buffer end addresses which exactly specify
part of buffer to save to file. Supported file formats now are binary, MOTOROLA, MOS Technology, Tektronix, Intel (extended)HEX, ASCII space, JEDEC and POF.
If the checkbox Swap bytes is displayed, the user can activate function of swapping bytes
within 16bit words (or 2-byte words) during writing to file. This feature is useful especially
when saving files with Motorola representation of byte order in file (big endian). Standard
save file operation is using little endian byte order.
The reserved key <F2> will bring out this menu from any menu and any time.
File / Load project
This option is used for loading project file, which contains device configuration buffer data
saved and user interface configuration.
The standard dialog Load project contains additional window - Project description - placed
at the bottom of dialog. This window is for displaying information about currently selected
project file in dialog Load project.
Project information consists of:
• manufacturer and name of the first device selected in the project
• date and time of project creation
• user written description of project (it can be arbitrary text, usually author of project and
some notes)
Note: for projects with serialization turned on
Serialization is read from project file by following procedure:
1. Serialization settings from project are accepted
2. Additional serialization file search is performed. If the file is found it will be read and
serialization settings from the additional file will be accepted. Additional serialization file
is always associated to the specific project file. When additional serialization file settings
are accepted, project serialization settings are ignored.
Name of additional serialization file is derived from project file name by adding extension ".sn"
to project file's name.
Additional serialization file is always placed to the directory "serialization\" into the control
program's directory.
Example:
Project file name: my_work.prj
Control program's directory: c:\Program Files\Programmer\
The additional serialization file will be:
c:\Program Files\Programmer\serialization\my_work.prj.sn
Additional serialization file is created and refreshed after successful device program
operation. The only requirement for creating additional serialization file is load project with
serialization turned on.

Command File / Save project deletes additional serialization file, if the file exists, associated
with currently saved project.
File / Save project
This option is used for saving project file, which contains settings of device configuration and
buffer data saved. Data saved to project file can be restored anytime by menu command File / Load project.
The dialog Save project contains three additional windows in Project description panel
placed at the bottom of dialog Save project. The windows are for displaying information
about currently selected project file in dialog Save project and information about current
project, which has to be saved. Dialog Save project contains also additional checkboxes
and button with picture of key displayed.
The first checkbox named "Set Protected mode of software after loading of this project file" and button with key are used to save project in special mode called Protected mode.
Clicking on the button with key displayed, password dialog appears which is used to specify
Protected mode password of recently saving project. Projects saved with active Protected
mode checkbox and password are special projects also called Protected mode projects. For
more detailed information about Protected mode projects see Options / Protected mode.
The second checkbox named "Require project file checksum before first programming"
has special function. When the checkbox is checked, program Pg4uw will ask user for
entering correct project checksum before allowing to start the first device programming. The
checkbox has effect after loading of project file, which was saved with the checkbox checked.
Usage of the checkbox is recommended for additional check, that correct project file is
recently loaded. There is also recommended to use this checkbox along with active Protected
mode (the first checkbox "Set Protected mode of software after loading of this project file"
checked).
Project information consists of:
• manufacturer and name of the first device selected in the project
• date and time of project creation
• user written description of project (it can be arbitrary text, usually author of project and
some notes)
The first (upper) window contains information about currently selected project file in dialog
Save project.
The second (middle) windows displays information about actual program configuration
including currently selected device, active programmer, date, time. These actual program
settings are used for creation of project description header.
The third (bottom) window is user editable and contains project description (arbitrary text),
which usually consists of project author and some notes.

File / Load encryption table
This command loads the data from binary file from disk and it saves them into the part of
memory, reserved for an encryption (security) table.
File / Save encryption table
This command writes the content of the memory's part, reserved for an encryption table, into
the file on the disk as a binary data.
File / Exit without save
The command deallocates heap, cancels buffer on disk (if exists) and returns back to the
operation system.
File / Exit and save
The command deallocates heap, cancels buffer on the disk (if exists), saves current setting of
recently selected devices to disk and returns back to the operation system.

Buffer
Menu Buffer is used for buffer manipulation, block operation, filling a part of buffer with string,
erasing, checksum and of course editing and viewing with other items (find and replace
string, printing...).
Buffer / View/Edit
This command is used for view (view mode) or edit (edit mode) data in buffer (for viewing in
DUMP mode only). Use arrow keys for select the object for edit. Edited data are signified by
color.
You can use <F4> hot key also.
View/Edit Buffer
F1 display help of actual window
F2 fill block causes filling selected block of buffer by requested hex (or ASCII)
string. Sets start and end block for filling and requested hex or ASCII string.
Ctrl+F2 erase buffer with specified blank value
Ctrl+Shift+F2 fill buffer with random data
F3 copy block is used to copy specified block of data in current buffer on new
address. Target address needn't be out from source block addresses.
F4move block is used to move specified block of data in current buffer on new
address. Target address needn't be out from source block addresses.
Source address block (or part) will be filled by topical blank character.
F5swap bytes command swaps a high- and low- order of byte pairs in current
buffer block. This block must start on even address and must have an even
number of bytes. If these conditions do not fulfill, the program modifies
addresses itself (start address is moved on lower even address and/or end
address is moved on higher odd address).
F6 print buffer
F7 find string (max. length 16 ASCII characters)
F8 find and replace string (max. 16 ASCII chars.)
F9 change current address
F10 change mode view / edit
F11 switch the mode of buffer data view between 8 bit and 16 bit view. It can be
also doing by mouse clicking on the button to the right of View/Edit mode
buffer indicator. This button indicates actual data view mode (8 bit or 16
bit), too.
F12checksum dialog allows to count checksum of selected block of buffer
change mode view / edit

Ctrl+Home/End jump on start / end current device
Shift+Home/End jump on start / end current buffer
Backspace move cursor one position left (back)
Warning:Editing of ASCII characters for word devices is disabled.
Print buffer
This command allows write selected part of buffer to printer or to file. Program uses at it an
external text editor in which selected block of buffer is displayed and can be printed or saved
to file, too. By default is set simple text editor Notepad.exe, which is standard part of all
versions of Windows.
In Print buffer dialog are following options:
Block start
Defines start address of selected block in buffer.
Block end
Defines end address of selected block in buffer.
External editor
This item defines path and name of external program, which has to be used as text viewer for
selected block of buffer. By default is set simple text editor Notepad.exe, which is standard
part of all versions of Windows. User can define any text editor for example Wordpad.exe,
which is able to work with large text files. In user defined text editor user can print or save to
file selected block of buffer.
The external editor path and name is saved automatically to disk.
Find dialog box
Enter the search string to Find to text input box and choose <Find> to begin the search or
choose <Cancel> to forget it.
Direction box specifies which way you want to search, starting from the current cursor
position (In edit mode). Forward (from the current position or start of buffer to the end of the
buffer) is the default. Backward searches toward the beginning. In view mode searches all
buffer.
Origin specifies where the search should start.
Find & Replace dialog box
Enter the search string in the Text to find string input box and enter the replacement string in
the Replace with input box.
In Options box you can select prompt on replace: if program finds instance you will be asked
before program change it.
Origin specifies where the search should start.
Direction box specifies which way you want to search, starting from the current cursor
