When
a
Task
is
run
and
it
calls
for
a
data
file
to
be
downloaded
into
RAM,
the
2500
will
fill
RAM
with
a
specific
data
pattern
depending
on
how
this
field
is
set.
•
None
—
RAM
is
not
changed
from
its
current
state.
The
file
will
download
and
write
over
the
current
contents.
•
Default
—
RAM
is
initialized
to
the
unprogrammed
state
for
the
device
type
selected.
This
will
not
always
be
the
same
value
since
some
devices
are
all
Os
and
others
are
all
Is
in
their
blank
(unprogrammed)
state.
•
Specific
—
When
selected,
a
second
field
appears
on
the
screen,
allowing
you
to
choose
a
2-digit
hex
value
to
use
when
filling
RAM.
The
other
parameters
listed
in
the
Memory
Device
Parameters
dialog
box
are
not
normally
used
when
programming
with
a
2500.
Refer
to
TaskLink
s
online
Help
for
a
description
of
these
parameters.
Data
Sumcheck
This
option
enables
TaskLink
to
perform
a
check
on
the
integrity
of
the
data
in
RAM.
We
strongly
recommend
that
you
set
this
option
to
help
reduce
programming
errors.
When
the
sumcheck
of
the
programmed
device
is
entered
in
this
field,
TaskLink
compares
it
to
the
RAM
sumcheck
after
downloading
a
file
or
loading
from
a
master
device.
If
the
sumchecks
do
not
match,
TaskLink's
red
warning
box
displays
both
sumchecks,
and
the
Task
stops.
TaskLink
also
monitors
the
RAM
for
any
changes
during
programming.
This
command
is
available
only
through
the
Edit
Task
dialog
box.
From
that
box,
select
<
More
>
and
the
parameter
is
displayed
on
the
More
Task
Parameters
window.
Other
TaskLink
Parameters
Several
non-mandatory
parameters
for
both
memory
and
logic
devices
are
available
from
other
pull-down
menus
on
the
main
screen.
The
next
sections
describe
these
menus
in
the
left-to-right
order
that
they
are
displayed
on
TaskLink's
main
screen.
TaskLink
supports
a
family
of
Data

programmers,
each
with
unique
requirements.
Only
those
commands
that
are
used
with
the
2500
are
described
in
this
manual.
Information
on
all
TaskLink
commands
is

Two
of
the
options
that
are
particularly
useful
with
the
ProMaster
2500
are
described
in
the
following
sections.
Purge
ProMaster
After
Processing
This
option
directs
the
2500
to
remove
all
devices
from
the
track
sections,
moving
them
to
an
output
tube.
The
operator
does
not
have
to
manually
remove
devices
from
the
tracks
and
load
them,
observing
correct
polarity,
into
tubes.
TaskLink
displays
a
purge
dialog
box
when:
•
Devices
are
in
the
track
at
the
end
of
a
Task
or
programming
session.
•
A
Task
has
been
terminated
by
the
operator.
•
The
next
Task
in
a
Kit
uses
a
different
device
type.
The
Purge...
dialog
box
prompts
the
operator
to
choose
<OK>
to
start
purging
parts
from
the
system.
If
<
CANCEL
>
is
selected,
any
parts
in
the
tracks
must
be
removed
by
the
operator.
Remove
the
input
tube
if
it
has
any
devices
and
make
sure
that
at
least
one
empty
output
tube
is
installed
before
selecting
<OK>.
TaskLink
will
send
all
devices
detected
in
the
input
track
through
the
2500
before
it
completes
the
purge
operation.
Enable

TaskLink
(VI.

or
higher)
will
create
and
load
your
data
files
on
either
the
2500,s
floppy
drive
or
the

To
see
the
new

displayed
on

menus,
you
must

Tasks
and
Kits
Introduction
to
Kits
Kits
are
Tasks
that
have
been
daisy-chained
together
so
several
can
be
run
as
one
large
job.
The
most
common
use
for
Kits
is
to
string
together
the
separate
Tasks
used
to
program
all
the
devices
for
a
single
board.
In
Figure
3-23
there
are
four
devices
that
must
be
programmed
and
labeled
for
the
sample
board.
Each
device
has
one
Task
that
controls
the
process
for
producing
that
device.
The
Kit
acts
like
a
super-Task.
To
illustrate
this
point,
assume
that
60
boards
need
to
be
built.
When
the
Kit
fbr
this
board
is
run,
the
Task
1
pass
limit
is
set
to
60
devices.
When
that
count
is
reached,
TaskLink
displays
a
message
prompting
the
system
operator
to
change
over
for
the
second
Task.
When
ready
for
Task
2,
the
operator
presses
.
TaskLink
starts
Task
2,
and
60
devices
for
that
Task
are
programmed.
This
process
continues
for
Task
3
and
Task
4.
The
messages
screens
are
typically
used
when
the
Tasks
define
devices
using
different
package
types
(Task
1
uses
DIPs
and
Task
2
uses
PLCCs).
In
this
case,
a
message
screen
might
remind
the
operator
about
the
steps
required
to
change
over
from
one
package
type
to
another.
A
Kit
can
include
a
maximum
of
20
Tasks.
All
the
Tasks
for
a
Kit
must
be
in
the
same
database
file
(called
the
Source
Database
in
the
Kit
dialog
box),
but
the
Kit
can
be
stored
in
the
Source
Database
or
a
different
database
file.
When
the
Kit
is
run,
the
system
operator
specifies
the
number
of
Kits
(equal
to
the
number
of
complete
boards)
to
be
built.
Selecting
Kit
Parameters
The
process
for
creating
a
Kit
is
similar
to
creating
a
Task.
From
TaskLink
s
main
screen,
select
Add
Kit...
and
press
(see
Figure
3-22).
