Todd,
There are Two options on the Windows program HBDL.EXE
1. Download - This downloads a bootloader then a file to the
external RAM of the handy board.
2. Burn - This (attempts) to download a file to the HandyBoards
68Hc11 internal EEPROM. Thus 'BURN' the Eprom.
So DOWNLOAD is what you would use, if you are requiring to use
Interactive C, HB-Buffalo monitor program, or some other Handy Board
operating system.
It is most unlikely that you will ever need to use BURN. However, it
is there if you ever wish to write a (almost) permanent program that
is Burnt to the Handyboard EEPROM.

| when using hbdl what does the burn the board option do? It says download to eprom. What file should you download to the eprom? Is this necessary? Thanks, Todd (25 years ago, 27-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
