This line is to be typed behind the DOS prompt. The program will automatically detect its presence, so the user does not have to point it out to the program. The interface is to be connected to one of the LPT ports of the PC. It enriches your view on the (computer) world. The biggest disadvantage is that it is somewhat user-unfriendly.īut there is nothing wrong with being familiar with MS-DOS, not even in the Windows age. The biggest advantage of such a program is that it is quite easy to write. The program inspects these parameters, completes its task and returns to the DOS prompt. This means that the program is started from the DOS prompt, where the program name is followed by one or more parameters. The programmer operates as a DOS command line interpreter. It may also be possible to program the 2401, a 128 bytes EEPROM, but I never had one to verify that myself. The programmer is capable of programming the following devices: Since I've switched jobs I never really needed it anymore. I never got about to make it useful under Linux though. The program is also quite comfortable in a DOS box in just about any Windows version, even Windows XP. The accompanying program handles the rest. The programming tool is to be connected to one of the parallel ports of a PC running MS-DOS or compatible operating system. The total costs for the hardware are very low. The hereby presented EEPROM programmer is a cheap tool to assist in programming these EEPROM devices. Therefore it's very important to have a programming tool with which you can quickly pre-set all main adjustments.Īfter that the adjustments need only some fine-tuning, which is much faster than starting from scratch.

There they are mainly used for storing tuning and calibration data.Įspecially storing the calibration data is very important.Īdjustments are mainly done by software instead of using a screwdriver nowadays.Īdjusting a set from scratch is often a tedious and error prone job.
They are used in equipment like: TV sets, VCRs, Satellite receivers and even cell phones.
