Hello,
I'm hooking up a laptop to a Data I/O UniPak 2B Eprom Programmer and
connected through a USB to Serial adapter made by Airlink. I'm using
Promlink 6.10, which is the patched version from MikesArcade.com.
http://mikesarcade.com/arcade/promlink.html
My Settings are Com1, 9600 Baud, Parity None, Data Bits 8, Stop Bits 1 and
of course flow control is off. I/O Format is current set to Absolute
Binary.
I've read some of the threads before on this and I seem to be running into
a similar problem regarding trying to send and receive eprom data. I can
do things such as blank checks, selecting devices, reading eproms, etc.
1) First of all, when I initially start up Promlink, I always get this
message "16 Bit MS-DOS Subsystem - pl.exe The system cannot open Com2 port
requested by the application. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.
Rather than choosing 'Close' I click 'Ignore' and get in.
2) When I read eproms, I can do so and get a sumcheck, but if I save them
to a file I can't identify the file using romident.
3) When I try to send a file to the programmer I will see a progress bar
quickly go to 100% and it will wait indefinitely with a "Waiting for
programmer response..." message.
I've also tried changing a few port settings including lowering or turning
off the buffers.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has been able to work around a similar
problem? Up until now I've always used Windows98 and using an older
version of promlink but it would be nice to use WindowsXP if possible.
Thanks!
Matt
