So, you have a Microcontroller code burner G540 but you don’t know how to use it.

In this Article we will teach you how you can burn a simple code with G540.

Please Remember the following things:

  • G540 software won’t support 64-bit Edition of Windows.
  • To use G540 with 64-bit Windows, you need to create a Virtual Computer using Oracle VM VirtualBox or similar
  • We recommend using Windows XP or Windows 7 32-bit

Lets Get Started:

  • Connect G540 Burner with a computer using appropriate cable (USB/Serial) and install the software. It is recommended to use Windows XP (32-bit) or a 32-bit based Windows NT OS.
