Figure 9.1: If an MCU already contains serialization information at a specified location then a conflict window will appear giving the user the option to retain the old serial number, or program in a new one. The Serialization Dialog screen, shown in Figure 9.2, allows the user to configure how serialization is done. Serialization can be enabled, or disabled, by selecting the check mark in the ENABLE Serialization check-box. When serialization is disabled all edit lines and check boxes are disabled. When serialization is enabled, most fields have to be set to ensure that the result will be as the user expects. The necessary fields include:

Figure 9.3: This window will appear when there is a conflict between memory allocated to code and the SN. To avoid this pop-up, select the option to "Remove code contents in the location where the serialization and model are defined" in Figure 9.2.The location in the target device's flash memory where the SN will be stored is specified in the \Memory Location - SN Start Address in Memory" field of the serialization dialog screen (see Figure 9.3). Specified address must be even and should be specified in empty memory space, not used by program code or data block. However, if you'd like to integrate the SN with existing code, by programming the SN to a code location, then check the box
Remove code contents in the location where the serialization and model are defined .
The SN memory formats will be described in the following subsections.

Figure 9.6: Serial numbers read from a file. 9.10 Example Output
The screenshot below shows the example output of using the SN input file from Section 9.9.
...
The output above can be generated using the following setup shown in Figure 9.8 In this case the SN will be written to address 0x08001000; however this destination address can be changed at any time without modifying the SN input file or other settings.
