Commands
Add
7. If you selected a manufacturer in step 6, a list of devices produced by the
selected manufacturer is displayed. Type the number next to the device
you wish to add to your Custom Menu, then press ENTER to add the device.
(CTRL+N to see the next page of devices.)
8. If prompted, insert the Algorithm/System disk that contains the algorithm
you wish to add. (If the correct disk is not inserted, the programmer will
prompt you for the disk to insert when it is needed.)
If you get the message Cannot access file_name.sys, the
programmer could not find a system file on the disk inserted into the
programmer's drive. Insert the Algorithm/System disk that contains the
file. For instance, if the programmer could not access the file
mem_alg.sys, which contains memory device algorithms, insert the
Memory algorithms disk.
9. Select additional devices from the current screen (or press F2 to return to
the manufacturer list if you were using that list). Repeat steps 6 through 8
as necessary. When you are done, press F2 once or twice until you are
prompted to insert the Custom Menu disk.
10. Insert the Custom Menu disk, then press ENTER to save your changes to
disk. To add additional devices to your Custom Menu, use the Add
command, described below.
More Commands/Configure System/Customer Menu Algorithms/Add
This command allows you to add devices to a Custom Menu. To add devices to
a Custom Menu, follow these steps:
1. Select Add. The programmer prompts with
Source Disk
Algorithm Type (D,E,K)
Algorithm Media (F,M)
Destination Disk
Custom Menu Algorithm Disk
where D is default algorithms, E is extended algorithms, K is Keep Current
algorithms, F is floppy disk, and M is Mass Storage Module.
2. Select the algorithm media and algorithm source of the device you want to
add to your Custom Device List. In the Custom Menu algorithm disk field,
select the disk drive where the Custom Menu is located.
3. If prompted, insert the Algorithm/System disk that contains the algorithms
from which you want to choose, then press ENTER to continue. Follow the
directions on the screen, inserting disks if prompted.
CAUTION: This operation uses RAM as a temporary storage buffer and
alters the contents of RAM.
4. The programmer displays a list of devices (if algorithm type K was selected
in step 2) or a list of device manufacturers (if algorithm type D or E was
selected in step 2). Select a device or device manufacturer by typing the
number next to it, then press ENTER. If the device or device manufacturer
you want is not listed, type CTRL+N to see the next page.
