The getting started guide for RFlasher shows a product counter option in auto mode (as per section 3.4). 

This option doesn't seem to actually be available (ride7 7.64.16.0244).  Am I correct that it doesn't exist?  If it doesn't exist is there someway to mimic this behaviour with the command line tools or similar?

Hello,

Yes this option does exist, and it is available in Ride 7.64. However, it might be unavailable with some RKits. Which Rkit you are using? Which version?

It is possible to mimic this behavior by writing scripts or programs that manipulate hex files. Ride includes some hex file manipulation tools for helping doing this (copyhex, cathex, bin2hex, hex2bin, ...). It is not as user-friendly as the Poduct Counter mode of RFlasher, but it might allow to perform more complex operations if you need to... and it will work with all RKits. ;)

Best Regards,

Vincent

I'm using the STM8 rkit.  Though it is a fairly old version (2.42.12.0083)

Does this feature actually work with this rkit?

Thanks
