I tried to read the flash from the device to backup the program, however the data that came out (no errors reported) was essentially blank. I did notice that there's a lock bit set "PROG_VER_DISABLED", but I have no idea what that means. I can't seem to find a definition of these lock bits anywhere. I'm guessing this is why I cannot backup the chip?
Oh bugger! I completely forgot about the lock-bits. You will not be able to make a backup. Sorry about that.
