 >> Turns out that the Problem is that the
Data I/O System-19 I am using doesn't want to load the Hex file as INTEL. It will only
load a File if it is flagged as BINARY and that doesn't give a proper code Image. I am
trying to get a fellow to see if his System-19 will load the file and burn the 2708
Properly then I can get mine Fixed I HOPE.

  What is the command sequence that you are using with the Data IO Sys-19
 to get it to understand Intel Hex?
 Dwight Dwight;
I have been using a program called PL [Version 26 & 34] that I 
downloaded from Magnetics & Memories of Philadelphia.
It is driven by a Configuration file that can be Setup for the Device 
Type and File type and Baud Rate, etc.
I am in contact with Al Marin of M & M and he is looking in on the Problem,
My Latest attempt was to EDIT out a Intel Hex file to make it PURE 
Binary but that doesn't want to load properly either.
I burnt a Prom with a few additional lines of Code that I had to shrink 
as it didn't match the input file when I load RAM from the device and 
created a File from it. But alas even that did not perform as it should 
on the N*.
I could not see the OUT [6, 2, 3] instructions being executed the way 
the do with the Original 2708.
If I go back to the 2708 that Andrew L Burnt for me the Code performs in 
accordance with the Listing.
