steve-chamberlin 8503797424 Programmer host software support for 4MB SIMM. Also renamed chipType to chipLayout to better reflect what it does. 2016-05-25 10:33:05 -07:00
Doug Brown 6110068d04 Got it working so you can flash and read chips on the SIMM individually. 2013-07-04 18:34:27 -07:00
Doug Brown 09686d2199 This is an incomplete implementation of the new "erase some of the SIMM"
feature. The erase capability is there, so next up comes the write.

The next step is to add a mechanism to the protocol to start writing at
a location other than 0 (although this is not needed for this particular
feature, I'd like to have it in there first). Then, I have to update
this software to use that new protocol and make sure verification still
works. I'm about 50% done I'd say.

Doug Brown b57f0a83e1 Refactored verification code so Programmer is in charge of it rather
than MainWindow. Also, I think I have verify while writing working
but I can't test it yet because I haven't implemented in in the
firmware. Bumped version number up as well.

Doug Brown 23b28c2cc7 Added ability to edit read/write filenames by hand. 2012-09-29 21:55:50 -07:00
Doug Brown 97f31bfec4 The verify after write only reads the amount of data needed now -- so if
you flash a 512 KB file to a 2 MB SIMM, it will only read back 512 KB.

I haven't tested this other change yet, but after a verify, it should now
tell you which chips are returning bad data.

I also fixed a newly-introduced bug which caused the "erasing SIMM" message
to never appear because the code path that caused it to appear wasn't being
reached after my 8 MB SIMM support change.

Doug Brown 8121a6ae38 Added (untested) support for new ROM SIMM.
Also fixed a few places where I didn't close the port if an error
occurred.
Updated version number to 1.0.1, but I won't release this version
until I know the bigger SIMM works.

Doug Brown 7dca71235d Now saves the selected chip size and the verify after write setting. 2012-08-25 19:20:33 -07:00
Doug Brown 57cffcf16b Added other SIMM capacities to dropdown list, now defaults to 2 MB SIMM. 2012-08-25 19:04:28 -07:00
Doug Brown 7a2bfdf2fc Removed dead code and added a Mac OS X read me file.
I had left some old code when I was changing the communication
scheme around, so I removed it. It was just commented out and
taking up space.

I also added a read me file for Mac OS X users to explain the USB
CDC modem popup message.

Doug Brown 1582190714 Fixed problem that caused nonworking progress bar in OS X. Oops! 2012-05-26 14:22:23 -07:00
Doug Brown 04711c3851 Added about box with version info/licensing/credits.
Inserted GPL license header into source code.

Doug Brown cec709c840 Added verify-after-write capability
In order to do this, I changed the Programmer class to no longer take a
filename, but a QIODevice. It should have been done that way originally.

I also rearranged code so that I close the serial port BEFORE sending out
any signals. This was causing a problem if I tried doing something in a
slot connected to one of those signals.

I also fixed a few places where I was forgetting to close the serial
port.

Doug Brown b8bf3e878b Added provisions to programmer protocol for specifying readback
size.
2012-05-19 22:56:30 -07:00
Doug Brown 0e9736dcb2 Prettified more source code and began work on a dropdown menu for the
chip size.
2012-05-13 20:30:21 -07:00
Doug Brown 0dfe69cbf8 Added better error checking to the ROM SIMM flasher for when the
programmer board is unplugged. The UI seems a lot cleaner now too.

Removed dead code. Moved to a more consistent function naming style.
2012-05-13 15:33:22 -07:00
Doug Brown 4d38eb6d3e Moved the progress bar and status information to a new screen. Looks
much better now. Also added better status information for when we are
first making communication with the programmer.
