== Binary == The binary file format is not a format as such. It is an image that is loaded directly into the F256's memory by a utility program running on the PC or Mac, and the F256 is then reset. Such an image must include properly initialized interrupt vectors, especially the RESET vector. Running such an image requires knowledge of its starting address and a properly configured USB connection between the PC or Mac and the F256. Also, a jumper on the F256 Jr. motherboard must be moved to the "Boot-to-RAM" position. This is not necessary on the F256K. Binary images should only be used by the developer while developing, as it is a very user-unfriendly method of distributing software, requiring tethering to a PC or Mac.
