4 The SX-Key/Blitz Interface
4.4.5 Configure Window
Figure 10 - The Configure Window
This window is accessed via the Configure item on the Run menu and allows you to setup various
properties of the software.
We have already addressed the Serial Port section at the top of the window. Click one of the radio
buttons to select the COM port where your SX-Key/Blitz is connected.
When the option Create backup (.bak) files is selected, the editor will save a copy of the previous version
whenever a modified source code file is saved.
The group Assembler Options allows you to configure the SASM assembler.
When Use SASM is selected, the editor will call SASM to translate the source code in the editor window
into SX machine code. SASM is an enhanced version of Ubicom’s SASM assembler that has been
adapted to the SX-Key Version 2 software. When you un-check this option, the original Parallax
assembler will be invoked instead. Because there are some differences in language syntax between the
two assemblers, it might be necessary to use the Parallax Assembler with older, legacy, source code (see
Chapter 7 – The SASM Assembler and Chapter 8 – The Parallax Assembler for the differences
between the assemblers).
