Hi
I have the GQ-4X and also the Wellon VP990.
I have desoldered a chip, 93S46 and placed on the adapter that came with VP990, this one:

h**p://programatory.com/index.php?p22,adapter-so8-zif-so-8

I have read it on both programmers and the data buffer is slightly different, example:
On VP990, on address 00000010H i have 00 00 6C A4 96 45 68 38
On GQ-4X, on address 00000010H i have 00 00 A4 6C 45 96 38 68

Is this normal ?

thanks in advance

Hi
Surprisingly, i find that GQ-4X is easier to use than the VP990, the VP990 cost me almost 500 Euros and sometimes it can't read simple chips, for example:

I am trying to read a ST 24C04W6 SOIC8 chip placed correctly on the correct adapter, all i get is FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
I have placed the chip exactly the same way on my other programmer GQ-4X and it reads OK
I have tried with device selection of M24C04, M24C04-R, M24C04-W,
ST24C04, ST24C04-R
And it is the same problem, only get FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

What could be the problem please?

Can you help? thanks

Yes. The programmer displays 16bit data in two ways.

If you do only instant copy a chip on same programmer, then you do not need to wory about it.

If you do exchange the data file between those two programmer, you need to make sure the data in a correct order. If not, you have to click on A/B button to swap the order.

Someone told me this:

M93S46 have 16 bit mode to read/write.
VP-990 display 16 bit data by low 8 bit--- high 8 bit
maybe GQ-4X display data by high 8 bit ---low 8 bit

Just looks byte swapped.
