No-DTR Download and Native mode

I had been using the no DTR download method with the VM mode devices, and I'm wondering if the method is still valid with the new compiler. I haven't been able to get it to work as of yet, although I can successfully download via the standard method.
Are the internal workings of the DTR-less download unchanged in the Native mode devices? How about the compiler/IDE. In other words, should I need to make any specific changes in order to download, sans DTR, with native mode?

Yes, but now that you mention it I realize that it hasn't been tested. One thing that does need to be done, just as it does with the VM mode devices, is to set the ATN character value. It is disabled by default.

Is this still the proper method?
Code: Select all
Public ATNChar as Persistent Byte Based &H0013
ATNChar = &H04

Yes, it's the same as for VM-mode devices. All of the address assignments in System Persistent Memory are the same between the two.

That's what I thought.
Can you verify that the No-DTR download works in native mode? I can't get it to work here, but the problem might not be related to the compiler/downloader.

I have verified that it does not work. As yet, I don't know why.
