Prog offset for bootloader

Post by jadiflow »

Hi,

I just got my ECIO28 module, and while installing I read that I need to offset the program in memory to start above hex800; space below that is used for the ECIO bootloader.

Q: Does Flowcode automagically take care of that (there is an example where this is implemented), or do I tell it to?

TIA,

Jan Didden

Maybe I have found the answer: I need to select 'ECIO-28' as the target processor, no?
Would be nice to get confirmation, though.. ;-)

Hello Jan

The Programming software ECIOprog handles all of this for you so you dont need to worry about it either in Flowcode or programming in C / Assembler.
