Erasing flash memory…

Memory successfully erased

Send .bin file using Xmodem protocol..

At this point the binary file unimux-suhd-csx-x.binmust be sent. To do this, from HyperTerminal:

1.go to “Transfer” menu in the Menu Bar of the HyperTerminal window

2.click the item “Send File …”

3.in the dialog box which pops up on the screen, browse for the file to be sent and select it

4.select “Xmodem” from the Protocol drop-down menu

5.press “Send” button

The transmission will start shortly. Wait until the transmission is finished. There will be some pauses during transmission, since the processor writes blocks of 4KB.

When the transmission is complete, the HyperTerminal window should show the following status message and return to the menu prompt:

Device successfully programmed!

To exit from the bootloader, press <x>.

Update the HID Port Controller Firmware

The HID port controller firmware comes as a file in Intel Hex format and has the extension .hex (i.e. filename.hex). To upgrade any of HID controllers (there is one per CPU port) with this firmware, press <p> from the terminal window. The following message should appear on the screen:

Send .hex file using XModem protocol...

At this point, the hex format file unimux-suhd-cpkmx-x.hexhas to be sent, using HyperTerminal and the same procedure as before. When the transmission is done, the following message will be shown in the HyperTerminal window:

File transfer OK!

Please, type the two-digit number of the port to be updated, <A> to program all or <X> to exit
