Configuration and procedure (ISP Tool)

"ISP Tool " software is provided by NOVATEK to upgrade the
firmware of Scaler IC. It is a windows-based program, which
cannot be run in MS-DOS.

System and equipment requirements:
1. An i486 (or above) personal computer or compatible.
2. Microsoft operation system Windows 98/2000/XP.

(Need to install, it can not be performed directly.Double press
"EasyUSB WriterV3.0.exe" to start installing,then chose the path
that you want to install ,then it will perform automatically.)
4. Firmware uploading tool, as shown in Fig1.


Fig. 3

4. Double press the "H00" file or "H01 file" ,then it acquires the
hex file automatically, and a message will be showed in
the dialog box to notice the operator. At this moment, please
verify the checksum of the hex file with the firmware control
table to make sure the suitable file will be used. Mentioned
firmware control table will be provided by suppliers shown in
Fig. 4.

6. Press "Auto"button of the toolbox. Program will perform the DDC instructions
loading process automatically. When the loading process
completed, and the dialog box appeared the message of General
Programing Success. If Program perform fail ,resume step 5.
DDC Data Re-programming
In case the DDC data memory IC or main EEPROM which
storage all factory settings were replaced due to a defect, the
serial numbers have to be re-programmed.
It is advised to re-soldered DDC IC and main EEPROM from the
old board onto the new board if circuit board have been
replaced, in this case the DDC data does not need to be re-
programmed.

* According to the design concept of this product, DDC data will
be divided into two parts to deposit in different place:
DDC data of VGA interface are saved in scaler IC.

Additional information
Additional information about DDC (Display Data Channel) may
be obtained from Video Electronics Standards Association
(VESA). Extended Display Identification Data(EDID) information
may be also obtained from VESA.

System and equipment requirements
1. An i486 (or above) personal computer or compatible.
