M-IDE Studio for MCS-51

The M-IDE Studio for MCS-51 is the primary means for performing compiling for
the MCS-51 devices. The M-IDE Studio for MCS-51 has a comprehensive set of
features that allows you to edit, compiling, and debugging file.

The M-IDE Studio for MCS-51 also allows you to write a programming language
with c programming. Using the software, you can see the error by viewing report in
file LST.

Figure 1 - M-IDE Studio for MCS-51

You will notice that most of the toolbar buttons and menu options are disabled. This is
because a file has not been made. To make a file, do the following:

1. New File

To make a new file, click on File menu or shortcut as shown in figure 1, after made a
new file, then you'll see the page look similar as figure 2.

Figure 2. A Blank New File

User Manual
2. Writing a Program

To implementation the program, you may write the assembly program in blank file.
After writes the program, see that is no colour in the page.In this case you must save
the program as shown in figure 3.

Figure 2. Writing a Program

3. Save As

Save your file with extension according to your program, in this case if your program
is assemly then you must save the file with extension *.ASM, as shown in figure 3.

Figure 3. Save as dialog

After saving the program you will see the program with colour, this indicates that the
mnemonic is right reseved, as shown in figure 4

Figure 4. Mnemonic instruction

4. Compiling

To load the file into your device, you need to compile the file *.ASM to be HEX file.
To compiling file *.ASM into *.HEX you can click shortcut as shown in figure 4.

5. Troubleshooting Error

Assembly errors apply to the consistency of the assembly language program in syntax
and semantics. If one of these errors is detected, it is flagged in the list file, and
program execution continues.

Figure 5. No massage error

6. File error example

As you see in figure 6, we have an error instruction, with S JMP that should be SJMP.
Before you can detect the error you must save the file and compile the file again.

Atmel Microcontroller ISP Software
The Atmel Microcontroller ISP Software is the primary means for performing in-
system programming (ISP) for the Atmel devices. It provides an intuitive interface for
in-system programming that can be run from your personal computer. The Atmel ISP
Software has a comprehensive set of features that allows you to view, program, and
erase data from an Atmel ISP device.

Figure 1 - Atmel Microcontroller ISP Software

The Atmel Microcontroller ISP Software also allows you to load hex files containing
the code you want to add to the device. Using the software, you can manipulate this
code, verify it against the existing code on the device, and program the code onto the
device.

You will notice that most of the toolbar buttons and menu options are disabled. This is
because a device has not been selected. To select a device, do the following:

1. Make sure the board is connected to the LPT port of your computer with the Atmel
ISP cable and that the board is turned on.

2. Select the LPT port that the board is connected to by selecting Select Port from the
Options menu (You could also press the select port toolbar button).

Figure 2 - Port Select Dialog

3. You can then select a device by choosing Select Device from the Options menu or
by clicking on the toolbar. You should see a dialog box similar to the one in Figure 3.

12
 Microcontroller AT89s51 Trainer Kit
User Manual

Figure 3 - Device Select Dialog

4. Select the device that you are trying to program from the tree control by clicking on
the desired device.

5. Next select whether you want to read and write from the device in page mode
(read/write a page at a time) or in byte mode (read/write byte by byte).

6. Enter the external clock frequency (MHz) provided to the device in the text box.

7. Select OK.

Once you finished selecting a device you will see one or two windows appear
depending on whether or not the device has internal data memory. The window(s) will
look like Figure 4. Each window signifies a buffer. There are two types of buffers, a
code buffer and a data buffer. The code buffer corresponds with the in-system
programmable flash memory of the chip and the data buffer corresponds with the
chip’s internal data memory.

Figure 4 - Buffer Window

After determining if the device can be programmed or not, it is time to load the
program that you wish to encode onto the chip into the software. The Atmel
13
 Microcontroller AT89s51 Trainer Kit
User Manual
Microcontroller ISP Programming software can load in programs that are in the
Intel Hex file format.

To load in a program from disk:

1. Select Load Buffer from the File menu or click on the toolbar. You will see
a dialog similar to Figure 4.

.
Figure 5. Load Buffer Dialog

2. Select the HEX file that contains the program you wish to encode onto the chip and
click Open.

File 6. Open file Hex dialog

3. The buffers will then be updated with the contents of the hex

Figure 7. Update buffer data

4. Initialize Target

The Initialize Target command sets the device to programming mode. This is needed
when swapping devices after already selecting the device in the Atmel ISP Software.
Additionally, it is needed when setting the device out of run mode. This command can
also be activated by clicking on the toolbar.

Figure 8. Initialiazed Device

5. Programming the Device

Once the program has been loaded into the buffer(s) the most straightforward way to
program the device is to select Auto Program from the Instructions menu (You can
also press on the toolbar). Auto program performs all of the most common tasks done
when programming a device.

15
 Microcontroller AT89s51 Trainer Kit
User Manual

Figure 9. Auto Programming sub menu

Auto programming performs the following commands:

• Erases the device
• Writes out buffer(s) to the device
• Verifies programmed device with buffer contents
• Prompts user for lockbit settings (if supported by device)
• Prompts user for fusebit settings (if supported by device)

After selecting Auto Program you should see a progress dialog similar to the one
shown in Figure 10.

Figure 10 Progress Dialog

6. Lockbit Settings

The Lockbit Settings command allows the user to set the lockbit protection mode for
the current device. A dialog box, similar to Figure 11, showing the protection modes
supported by the current device is displayed to the user. After selecting a protection
mode, the software sets the device to the specified mode.

Figure 12. Auto Programming Dialog

7. Run Target

The Run Target command removes the device from programming mode and sets it
into a run state. When the device is in this state, programming commands can not be
sent to the device. Most of the commands in the Atmel ISP Software are disabled
during this state. To return to a programming state, the Initialize Target command
must be executed.

8. Troubleshooting

This section discusses some of the common problems you might encounter when
using the software and what to do when you encounter them. The program reports that
the device is locked even after a Chip Erase command has been executed. The
software is most likely having trouble communicating with the device. Check the
cable connection and make sure the device is on. Then run the Initialize Target
command from the Options menu.

Figure 14. Error according to device error

The program reports write failures when attempting to write the buffer(s) to the chip.
This usually occurs when the XTAL frequency is not set to the correct value in the
software. To set the XTAL chose Select Device from the Options menu and input the
correct XTAL frequency that is being used by the device. Then run the Initialize
Target command from the Options menu.
The software reports “…Atmel ISP Cable is not connected…” but the cable and
device appear to be connected properly. Make sure the correct port is selected in the
software. This is done by selecting Select Port from the Options menu.
