- 8051 RELOCATER, notes on use.
-
- (0) COMMAND LINE, INPUT FORMAT
- This is a simple utility to relocate hex files. A typical use would be
- the following: you assemble a stand-alone program for address 0. However,
- when loading the program in preparation to blast it into EPROM, you have to
- upload it to memory address 4000 and then blast it to address 0.
-
- The typical conmmand line for this utility is:
-
- reloc Offset File
-
- For example:
- reloc 4000 debug
-
- will take the file debug.hex and generate the output in debug.hx. The input
- file must be suffixed in .hex, and the output will always have the .hx suffix.
-
- The offset must be a 4-digit hexadecimal number. The source file's
- addresses are shifted by the amount indicated by this offset. Address
- calculations are done modulo 10000 hex, so an offset of c000 will effectively
- shift addresses at or above 4000 back by 4000.
