New software - Version 2.76

[Dataman (Daniel Smith)]

Dear Dataman users,

New software has just been posted on our software pages for the Dataman MEMPro universal memory programmer.

Version 2.76 features the following amendments:

New Device Support
Many new devices have been added in this revision, please download the full device list to verify your chip is supported: DatamanMEMProDeviceList.pdf

Major Changes
Added possibility to enable or disable SW readiness indication to detect new device in ZIF socket by a sound signal (in Automatic YES! mode)
Improved setting of indication of active Automatic YES! mode, also added possibility to modify this setting from Pg4uwMC
Added support of new CHIL file format for CHiL Semiconductor devices
Changed term "Log window" to new term "Programmer activity log"
Fixed RAM operation memory size test to 220MB. If amount of RAM is lower, software will display warning with proper information.
"Privileged instruction exception", programmer find bug fixed
Project checksum type detection for SW version older than 2.72 bug fixed
Fixed Save file/project dialog behaviour in Windows 7, to correctly accept file name specified by user in "File name" edit box
Fixed in Pg4uw for Windows Vista / Windows 7 - prevent software from using VirtualStore UAC file virtualization (substitution of drive c:\ for [VirtualStore] folder, etc...)
Fixed in Pg4uwMC - button Settings is correctly enabled after deactivation of Protected mode
Fixed in Pg4uwMC - sound settings for good and failed operations are now correctly accepted even immediately after connecting of Programmer Sites
Fixed in Pg4uwMC - in case of load project error is forbidden device operation by disabling of button "Run All" even if Auto YES! mode is selected
Fixed in Pg4uwMC - checksum test for older projects improvement to prevent warning messages "Project checksum does not match between Sites"
