This is an older Flasher 5 Programming tool for ST9 and Renesas M16C/20, M16C/62, M16C/80, M38 and M79 series of Flash Microcontrollers in serial mode I wish it was a Rev 3 for the RC/8 Support But you get what you can get when you can get it. It got the Job done! Backing up the Hakko FM-202 Firmware. I am Not sure if it could be upgraded to Rev 3 hardware. If anyone has a rev 3 please please send me some photos.
Here is What it looks like inside the Segger Flasher 5

Would be Nice to have a R3 but these are hard to locate. A or a Flasher PRO XL would be cool to mess with but still would not be capable of some of the devices.
Update History.
October 2006 Introduced Rev 3:
Flasher 5 rev. 3 comes with 2MByte Flash to store target data.
This allows programming of all RENESAS CPUs with more than 512KB Flash when Software 1.96a or above is used. All Flasher 5 with series number above 51584 can be upgraded by just using the new Flasher software.
December 2007:
Support for RENESAS R32C and R8C added.
March 2008:
Support for RENESAS R8C/28, R8C29, M16C/64, M16C/65, M16C/6s added.
April 2008:
Support for RENESAS M16C/28B, M3062LFGPFP, M3062LFGPGP added.
Hope this teardown helps the person that requested it..
I Requested Schematics From Segger This Was The Response, Another Repair Tool Company that Don’t Support The Right to Repair. Trade Secret? Still Spewing that Line LOL! Note this was for a device long out of production more then 10 years. What I was a standard anti repair F-U if your device breaks buy a new one no repair options and no documents available. So what if you brought a new-one at $1,300 – $1,600 What happen after the 1 year warranty? what happens if you have an accident or a slip and break the device? No repair options not even form the factory!
Yes, the Newer Flashers price range is $1,300 to $1600 after shipping and tax and they do not support the devices the older flashers do so really would be useless for the target device it was intended for.
August 28th 2023 I received a follow up e-mail there may be some hope that Segger may actually support the right to repair. Lets hope the Segger the support engineer was actually correct. We shall see, but have my reservations. It should not be this hard to obtain documentation for a device that has been out of production for more then 10 years.
I Have to replace a corroded Antenna Connector and Repair The PSU On My GMG Jim-Bowie Wifi Controller So Why Not Take Some Teardown Photos.. Of the Inside!
This is the Original GMG Wifi Digital Control Board from my Jim-Bowie Pellet Grill. Behind The Front Cover.. This unit Packs a STM8S207CB Micro Controller (Data Sheet)
With the PCB Separated you will see the Top Right is the ST-Link Programming Header for Use with the STM8Flash Utility. This GMG Controller also uses a Hi-Link HLK-RM04 UART Wifi Module. (Data Sheet/User Manual) Manufacture Product Info.
Screen Shot Of Inside The Wifi Module Default Username is admin Password is admin
Looks Like they are using firmware V1.78 form 2013? Not sure how secure this thing is on the network!! Hi-Link has v1.95 Here.
Open WRT site says the HLK-RM04 Looks Like it can be Loaded With OpenWRT Firmware.. Yes, A bit Involved.. By may be Worth it to do a home brew Project down the road. No sure of anyone has pen tested the factory wifi firmware?
06/04/2019 I was given this link from a Person on Facebook it looks like there has been a Green Mountain Grills Security Penetration Test. It Failed and was reported to MFG Not sure if ever Resolved.
PSU Repair: The 2 Electrolytic Capacitors 470uf 25V Fail and will cause Random shutdowns and Should Be Replaced. The original caps are 1000 hour 105C caps of the lowest quality from a no name manufacture and placed near a high heat source? Recommend replacing with 4000 Hour Polymer Capacitors rated 125C they should last till the fire box burns out.
Hooked to Common ST-Link V2 (Ebay or Amazon about $5 to $10) Via SWIM (Note: You Do Not Need to Disassemble The Unit You Can Get to the Programming Header At The Back) The PCB Silk Screen is incorrect/missing on some units. XX, XX, GND, 3.3V, SWIM, 5V. Use Good Dupont Jumper Cables.

May/June 2020: Re Uploaded Photos.
Update: 10/2021
I have had about 2 dozen of these controllers come in to the shop in 2020 during covid lock-downs, Despite the thick conformal coating it’s been mostly liquid/physical damage failed OTA updates.
10/20/21 I reached out to GMG About Right to Repair and will be giving a Right to Repair Score Shortly.
01/05/2023 Uploaded Firmware and Updated Images, provided more details on backup/recovery. I may revisit this and do a YouTube video on it. If I can obtain some other control boards for other models I will back them up.

Testing the New Xeltek Superpro IS01 on the STM8 3 Wire SWIM Connection on the STM8S207CB I Unbrick about 10-15 controllers a year for people from failed updates this will make it much simpler then having to use a stlink v2 and its horrible software. What I do like about the ST Link it it will provide 5V so unit will power on no big deal.
Software Screen Shot and Option Bytes.
Video Soon!

I recently added this chip programmer to my Xeltek chip programmer farm, with the hope of increasing my throughput and possibly acquiring some gang adapters that are available for it. Unfortunately, the unit was purchased “as-is” and was only checked for power-on functionality, but it seems to be experiencing a power supply issue.
Despite this setback, I’m confident that I can address the problem and get this chip programmer up and running. With a little bit of troubleshooting, I’m hopeful that I can unlock its full potential and make it an asset to my programmer farm.

09/13/2022 I will try and get my notes added soon I have spent a lot of time on this already!
If you want to access the inner workings of the Xeltek Superpro 7000, all you need to do is remove five screws and lift off the bottom cover.
However, it quickly became apparent that this device has undergone repair work around U11, a TPS61175 3-A high-voltage boost converter.
It’s difficult to say for sure what caused the issue. It could have been a post-production repair at the factory, an attempted repair by an end-user, or simply a part failure. Regardless of the cause, it’s clear that there’s more investigating to be done.
Despite the uncertainty, I’m eager to get to the bottom of this and get the Superpro 7000 up and running again. With a little bit of effort and a lot of attention to detail, I’m confident that I can solve this mystery and get this device back to working order and put to good use.
Clearly the pry marks on the Chip and Circuit Board by C34 the work was done by someone who did not know how to solder or was in a hurry! Without a Doubt The smell was the stinky unknown Burnt Flux. Ohh well, it is always a gamble when buying used surplus power on tested only equipment. You never know what issues might be lurking beneath the surface, just waiting to rear their ugly heads. I would bet this is not a factory repair sure don’t look like it unless it was done on the 6th day in the 11th hour of the Chinese work week. Obviously it is a Botched repair attempt. I will remove the chip clean it up properly solder it back in place and make it look good.
As we continue with the teardown of the Xeltek Superpro 7000, we come to the display board. This particular display board has the part number WYPCB177A and the model number WYM2004D, as indicated in the data sheet. Interestingly, it appears to be the same display used in the Superpro 6100N, with a 2004D 20X4 LCD that measures approximately 76-77mm x 46-47mm and features an FFC/FPC connector. During my investigation, I came across a compatible replacement display that I believe would work well as a replacement if ever needed.
The #PCBCake consists of 6 Interconnecting boards held in with 4 screws to the top cover.
Not sure what happened top the photos in this Xeltek Superpro 7000 Universal Programmer Teardown but looked good on my display when taken but look washed out on PC Screen. I am not a professional photographer! I think I need to invest in a real camera and learn to use it properly! Regardless here they are.

The Xeltek Superpro 7000 CPU board, PN SK7K CPU Board v4.0, has a ground off chip at U17, which makes it difficult to identify. However, it does have a Jtag header at J3, so I may revisit it another day and connect it to poke around.
From the datasheet, I learned that the scratched off chip at U17 in the TQ144 Package a ACTEL Proasic3 will either be an A3P060 or A3P125. The Superpro 7000 board is controlled by an S3C6410XH-66 ARM 11 processor at U9.
This CPU board features K9F1208U0C 64M x 8 bits NAND flash memory at U14 (datasheet), as well as two 512Mb DDR SDRAM chips K4X51163PI-FGC6 at U10 and U13 (datasheet). Additionally, it has a DAVICOM DM9000AEP Ethernet controller(datasheet), with a Xeltek AE801 chip at U18.
I’m curious about the P1 header (Serial/UART?) and the P2 header (JTAG?) and J3 on the board, as well as the purpose of J9 and J10. I was told at one point that these Superpro Programmers run a form of embedded Linux. Maybe I should request the source code (just kidding!) Update 08/29/2023 P1 Is Serial/Uart 115200 bps (8-N-1) I Hooked it up to a serial Port Pins 1 tx (Y) and 3 rx (O),
When hooked to a basic terminal this is what is displayed. I think it is missing some data. I will work on it.
SP7K-V1V2 Board For Xeltek Superpro 7000 a lot of 6C596PW Shift Registers & Diodes. Then you have Y2 a SOT package Zener or PNP transistor?
Board Part SK7K -V3 For Xeltek Superpro 7000 the NH245’s I believe is a SN74LVC8T245 8-Bit Dual-Supply Bus Transceiver.
Ground Board Xeltek Superpro 7000 SP7k-GND HCT595 Chips Data Sheet Transistors have marking BKD Assume they are KTC8050S-D Bipolar Transistors
SP7K Stack a little bit clearer on the bottom side! The board to board connector on top is an Oupiin 2349-100G00DN1T
After examining the power supply board more closely, it became clear that the soldering on U11 was very poor, with pry marks on the chip and a noticeable gouge near C34 on the circuit board. As a result, I decided to remove U11 to get a better look. It was clear that there had been a botched repair attempt at some point, as the pads had been lifted and the chip had not been properly soldered down.
Dealing with this kind of issue is always frustrating, and the thick black solder mask on this particular board made it even more difficult to work with. However, with some patience and careful attention to detail, I was able to address the problem and get the board back in working order. In the end, it’s always satisfying to overcome these challenges and bring a piece of equipment back to life.
Before reassembling the programmer, I took the time to clean up the flux a bit. However, it’s clear that a more thorough cleaning is necessary. In fact, I think it would be best to give the board a quick dip in the ultrasonic cleaner for a few seconds to ensure that it’s completely free of any residual contaminants.
Hope this Xeltek Superpro 7000 Teardown helps someone. This is a living blog and I will update as time allows.
I do not have a EX0001 Adapter and Seems that Xeltek has Discontinued them. So this will have to stay on the back burner till another day.
Update, 07/2023 The Xeltek Superpro 7000 EX Adapter’s Uses a Uncommon Oupiin2348-100G00DP1T
On the modern Xeltek GX Adapter it Uses a Common Avery Roust Hirose FX2-100S-1.27SV(71)
According to information provided by Xeltek China, it has been stated with that the EX and GX adapters employ compatible security chips, thus indicating a high likelihood of compatibility between the two. It is worth considering the potential creation of an adapter that bridges the uncommon Oupiin connector with the Hirose connector. However, it is important to note that a definitive decision has not been reached on whether this adapter will be produced, thereby emphasizing the need for further evaluation and deliberation.
I have 3d Printed a Socket Cover for the Xeltek Superpro EX Adapter.
Here is the 3D Printed Cover. I will release the STL File On My Printable Profile As I Did with the Superpro 5000-6100N’s Check Back Here or my Printable’s Profile Regularly.

The pesky Social Media Ad’s for the Baofeng UV-5R for $2.99 + Tax Total $3.24
I was searching for a battery for mine as it went flat after many many years of abuse.
Social media tracking algorithms actively targeted me with Baofeng ads. Every other post i scrolled past seemed to promote the offer of getting a Baofeng UV-5R for just $2.99.
Initially, I suspected it was clickbait or a scam. However, I took action, Using a old android burner phone that i use to install these shady apps on without risking to much of my my personal data. I downloaded the app, the total cost came to $3.24 after tax. Then, I patiently waited for the delivery, which surprisingly only took about 8 days to arrive from China to my doorstep.
