Minipro TL866 programmer's abilities

[AndyCZ]

Has anyone using this programmer for flash memories like 29FXXX, 28FXXX as I have no luck to program it? Reading works fine.
Is it all this programmer can do or I have it damaged?

have tried read/write these flash chips I mentioned?

[CustomCars]

Sure my customers use it many time. Some time first read gone bad because they not checked connected pins..
But when have good connection R/W no problem. Fast and really cheap.
About 100E with tax and many adapters

I've had the same problem and the adapter was at fault... You may have the same problem, compare with mine one... If you look at my picture where arrow shows circuit is not finished... Repair with wire, solder to pin 1, see other picture... Hope it helps...

thanks guys! Overcurrent protection, adapter errors, check the chip connected... these are the main speaches of this programmer. I'm realy tired from it :)
autocargo I have adapter ok. One guy from this forum suggested remove C23 and bridge grounded together. This helped for a while but now not working again.
I sent two emails to technical support but never got reply.

I remove bridge from C23, unchecked erase and verify and I can write 29F200 (sometimes) :)

Any idea how to get rid from this "protection" for ever?

I have this tool to with many adapters,, I have same problem sometime with 29f200 too ( or other many chip) cause is mostly bad pins contact.
