1.2 Powering-up the Programmer

To power-up the programmer, perform the following steps:
CAUTION: When using this equipment, follow ESD prevention procedures. Adapter modules and devices are ESD susceptible.
  1. Silicon Sculptor 4 does not have any power ON/OFF switch. Connect the accompanying switching power supply to the programmer.
  2. To the back of the programmer, connect the USB cable to type-B USB port.
  3. Connect the USB cable to type-A USB port on PC.
  4. To launch SculptW software, double click the SculptW desktop icon or go to Windows Start > Programs list and select the SculptW icon. When running the software for the first time after installation, run the application as administrator.

The programmer powers-up.

The programmer LEDs turns on for a brief amount of time while the software is being initialized. The green LED light must stay on after the initialization process is completed. If the programmer does not power-up, close the software and check the USB and power connections (and/or use another USB port of the PC) and try again.

Check the software screen to ensure that the software recognizes the programmer. Programmer and adapter module (if attached to the programmer) must appear on the status bar at the bottom of the SculptW software.
