Red Earth Systems USB Board Programmer - FAQ
What does it do?
It replaces an aging Stag Board Programmer. These programmers are no longer being sold by Stag. The programmer used an ARINC language to describe the programming algorithm and had an interface to an adapter board to physically connect to the part to be programmed - whether it were board or chip (via an interface card).
What Operating Systems?
Windows 2000, XP and Vista-32 - plus any variant (Home, Professional, SP2) on them.
What hardware is required?
A PC with a USB1.0 (minimum) port. The programmer can work with better - i.e. USB1.1 or USB2.0.
What about my own ARINC scripts for programming my own (custom) boards?
No problem - it will run them.
