Hi Sir,

I am using Sitara AM335x EVM Board and using AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01 Software.for testing the board I followed the procedure given in starterware user manual to boot from UART, with the use of uart bootloader(which is located in binary directory).

for testing code I set profile#0 for boot. and made hw settings as per given in user manual. but after sending binary file thorugh Teraterm using xmodem protocol I am not able to see StarterWareAM335x BootLoader print on console.(console remains blank and shows any prints of bootloader).I tested default binary provided by starterware it is also not working. Please guide me how can I solve it..?

Regards,

Vishvajeet

    We have to use startarware boot loader with EVM board. But its not working, it is not showing anything on terminal.
    so temporary we are using U-BOOT(Version - 2015) to boot our application.
    But finally we have to use startarware bootloader only. so please suggest solution.

    Binary Path for starterware bootloader -
    C:\ti\AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01\binary\armv7a\cgt_ccs\am335x\evmAM335x\bootloader\Release_UART
    (C:\ti\AM335X_StarterWare_02_00_01_01: is a Starterware installed directory) and used boot.bin binary file for uart boot.

    Board revision and type -
    EVM board has 7” LCD,
    EVM board has following revision ids.
    display board: rev. 1.3A
    daughter board: rev. 1.2B
    base board: rev. 1.6A

    boot switch setting -
    Switch SW4 Function:
    SYSBOOT[15:14] = 01b (EVM has 24 MHz clk.Oscillator)
    SYSBOOT[13:8] = dont care(set to default/unchanged)

    Switch SW3 Function (boot mode select):
    SYSBOOT[7:0] = 00010111b (Boot modes - MMC0,SPI0,UART0,USB0)

    Switch SW8 Function (profile selection):
    SW8[4:0] = 0000b

    We have followed all steps as per given in UserGuide_02_00_01_01_Starterware of Starterware(v2.0.1.1).
    Please reply me how can resolve it..?
