how do i use this to convert my saved exteep to hex

ronster · 12-06-09, 04:24 AM

just drag and drop your exteep over the swapbinhex icon and it will convert it from a hex to a bin file

I do beg your pardon G77

I got the idea that the guy was doing his first card maybe?? and wanted to make his exEEprom.hex file

could be wrong though

i just added that you can do the conversion both ways

some programmers want bins, some want hexes. when you take a dump from a chip, it will be in .bin but to 'understand' it its better to 'look' at it in hex.

i.e. if he were to be lifting the 56pin tsop on his sa4200 to get the bk
