      NBURN(1)                GENIX Programmer's Manual                NBURN(1)



      NAME
           nburn - an EPROM burner

      SYNOPSIS
           nburn [ -s ] [ number [ number ] ] byte [ file ]

      DESCRIPTION
           Nburn dumps the specified bytes of file over the auxiliary port of a
           VT101-compatible  terminal  to  a  Data  I/O System 19 EPROM burner.
           File must contain a program in a.out format. A.out  is  the  default
           file name.

           Byte is either e or o.  The e/o option indicates that either even or
           odd bytes are to be dumped.

           The first optional number specifies the offset  into  the  text/data
           bytes  where  nburn  should begin taking bytes.  The second optional
           number specifies the EPROM size.  The default size is  2,  which  is
           2048 bytes, for 2716 EPROMs.  Both optional numbers are decimal mul-
           tiples of 1024 (for example, 4 is 4096).

           -s option dumps the static base segment of file.

           Example:

                This example illustrates how to dump a 13K byte program to 2732
                EPROMs.  Since each 2732 holds 4096 bytes, the program will fit
                into four 2732 EPROMs.  The following four  commands  burn  the
                EPROMs:

                     nburn -s 0 4 e exfile

                     nburn -s 0 4 o exfile

                     nburn -s 8 4 e exfile

                     nburn -s 8 4 o exfile

                Nburn prints the test size and the data  size,  for  the  whole
                file.   When  Nburn completes the dump, it prints the number of
                bytes dumped and the checksum.
