Welcome
Welcome to the world of Xeltek SUPERPRO programmers. Xeltek has produced the
SUPERPRO line of IC programmers since 1985. Our motto is to provide high value
products at affordable prices. In the past 27 years, Xeltek has produced a string of
highly popular and successful programmers including SUPERPRO, SUPERPRO II,
SUPERPRO III, SUPERPRO V, SUPERPRO 680, SUPERPRO 8000, SUPERPRO
3000U, and SUPERPRO 9000 models.
SUPERPRO 3000U is the first model to incorporate both PC connected and stand‐
alone modes operations combined into one programmer. It is also the first
programmer to break the barrier of 40,000 devices supported in the industry.
SUPERPRO 3000U is by far the most popular IC programmer in the industry today.
Pushing the barrier further, Xeltek is proud to announce the family of SUPERPRO
IS416 programmers. SUPERPRO IS416 retains all the good features of SUPERPRO
IS03, but in addition, it is designed to program today's large capacity devices
efficiently and effectively.

using SUPERPRO IS416.
Before using the programmer to program a device, make sure that the programmer is
installed properly and that the computer and programmer are communicating
successfully. Connect the signals with cables according to the device info of IS416.
3.2.1Hardwarepreparation
Before operating programmer, please install the software first, and connect programmer
with PC as follows.

18 / 56
3.2.2 Selectthedevice
To open the Device Selection window, choose one of the following options:
•Select theDeviceSelection icon
•Select theDevice menu and select theSelectDevice(Device) option.
The system then displays the Device Selection screen as shown below.

19 / 56
NOTE: The red device name means that such device(s) need authorization to use.
3.2.3 Loaddataintobuffer
One can load data into the buffer by reading data either from a file or a master chip.
To read data from a file, selectLoadFile from theFile menu. The system
displays theLoadFile dialog box. To make sure the loaded data is correct one
can review the information in theBuffer window.
NOTE: SomeHex orSrecord files contain non-zero file initial address. In this
case, enter the start address in the File Address box.
To read the data from a master chip, complete the following steps:
oInsert the master chip in the socket.
oSelectRead on theDeviceOperation window in the main screen. The
data will be copied from the master chip to the buffer memory.
oTo make sure the loaded data is correct one can review the
information in theBuffer window.
oIf desired, you can save the data to a disk for later use.
NOTE: The read function is not available for some devices, including those
have been encrypted.

20 / 56
3.2.4Setoptions

ClickOperationOption from the Option menu to open the Operation Option
screen. Set each of the following options:
oInsertionTest indicates whether to check the pin contact.
oDeviceIDCheck indicates whether to check the ID of the device.
oBeeper indicates whether the beeper alarms a sound when the
operation succeeds/fails.
oAutoIncrementFunction indicates an automatic increase in the label
number written to each chip.
oAddressChange indicates whether a different start and end address
shall be applied for the programming zone of the device.
To set the order of the batch processing functions, selectEditAuto from the
Options menu. The system displays the Edit Auto screen.
For devices that include the configuration word, you must set the
configuration word before programming to ensure that the chip can be used on
the target system. The configuration words for some devices are contained in the
data file. Therefore, the system automatically loads the configuration word into
the configuration word buffer when loading the data file. For some devices, you
must manually make the selection. SelectDeviceConfigurationWord from
the Device menu to open the ConfigWord screen.
Many devices must meet some special requirements for the programming of a
chip, including special algorithms conventions. Read the device manual or
instructions carefully and adjust the operation steps or buffer data as needed.
3.2.5Executeprogramming
Connect the signals with cables according to the device info of IS416 at first. The
operation procedure for the programming of a chip is described as the following steps:
Blank Check
NOTE: You can skip this step if the chip is brand new.
