Misc. Options:
Production Control:
Skip Blank Locations - If selected, any "Blank" value will be skipped during programming,
which can greatly reduce programming time on large devices that are only using small portions
of the Code space. Keep in mind however, that after serializing an MCU in a "Blank" area of the
code space, verifying will pass because of skipping over the blank area. Likewise, blank
checking will fail because a "non-blank" value is detected. This normally is not an issue but could
be confusing when manually selecting individual programming tasks out of sequence. NOTE:
This setting has no effect on 18 series MCU's and some newer FLASH MCU's due to multi-word
programming algorithms.
Disable Task Confirmation Messages - If selected, all "Are You Sure?" type messages will be
disabled. We suggest enabling this option after you are thoroughly familiar with the programs
operation.
Warn if CODE/Data Protection is Enabled - If selected, a warning dialog will appear if the
Fuse Options are set to "Protect" any area of the MCU. (see:
(Fuses)
Use High Speed Transfers - Select this option to enable higher speed communication between
the PC and Quickwriter. This will double the speed of Reading from the device and may reduce
total programming time slightly on some MCU's. If any communication errors are detected while
this option is enabled, QuickWriter will automatically switch back to the normal transfer speed
until "Reset QuickWriter" is selected, a new port is selected, this option is re-selected or the
program is restarted.
Use Microchip Checksums - If selected, QuickWriter's buffer checksum calculation will adhere
to Microchip's method of calculation which does not include the EEDATA and only includes
Code and User IDs depending on the values of the Fuses and the device selected. The resulting
calculation is displayed as a 16 bit HEX value.
To match Microchip's "Code Protected" checksum value, enable this option and "Read" a code
protected device.
If not selected, QuickWriter's checksum will include all enabled buffers (Code, EEDATA, User
IDs and FUSES) and the resulting calculation is displayed as a 32 bit HEX value.
