Note
—
the flash operation used (overwrote) the RAM
This is simply an informational message indicating that the contents of the RAM
may no longer be what you expect.
Flash programming code must be executed from RAM because code cannot be
fetched from FLASH while flash is being programmed. Because of this, E86MON
is copied to RAM prior to any flash write operation. This will overwrite any prior
RAM contents.

A program corresponding to the parameter given in the
L

Use the

command with no parameter to display a list of loaded programs.
Program operation failed
Your Flash device may require replacement.
Record does not start with colon at file line number x
This message indicates a problem with your .HEX file or that line noise was
encountered during the download. Some processor variants, especially on early
SD186EM and SD188EM systems, are susceptible to minute baud rate variations
between the board and the terminal. If you suspect this is the case, set your terminal
program for 2 stop bits.

You tested a permanent variable change, and then tried to update the boot area of
the Flash memory. Set all permanent variables the way you want them (from the
boot monitor) before running and updating the E86MON software from the
application area of the Flash memory.
