RNDIS USB Driver for OMAP3530 and WinCE



Hello,

I configure my OMAP EVM3530 to have USBFn RNDIS as Boot Device and Debug Device.  After power-on, I got the output shown below on the UART3 terminal.  A window is also poped up asking to install a USB driver "Microsoft RNDIS KITL for OMAP2430".

Would you please show me Where I can get this driver?  I did install the USB driver that goes with EVMFlash tool and able to download the XLDR to the EVM through USB but I think this must be another one.  I do not know which version of BSP from BSquare that I am using.  It must be 6.11 or 6.12.  Do I need to install 6.14 for RNDIS to work?

I appreciate your help.

Luan

  • I replied to your other post. Anyways, repeating the same info here. I havent tested RNDIS with releases prior to 6.13. In terms of support, I would advise you to move to 6.14.

     

    Here are the steps you need to follow in order to make USB RNDIS work:

     

    Setup Device:

    1.      On the debug terminal, press SPACE when prompted. Using the bootloader menu, set the boot device to USBFn RNDIS.

    2.      Set the debug device to USBFn RNDIS

    3.      In ‘Network Settings’:

    a.      Disable DHCP

    b.      Assign Static IP Address

    c.      Assign IP Mask

    4.      In the bootloader main menu, select “Exit and Continue” to download image.

     

    Setup Host PC:

    5.      Host PC will display ‘Found New Hardware Wizard’

    6.      Select ‘No, not this time’ and press next.

    7.      Select ‘Install from a list or specific location then press ‘next’ button

    8.      Ensure that ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’ is selected. Also ensure that ‘Include this location in the search’ is selected and click ‘Browse” button.

    9.      In the ‘Browse for Folder’ window navigate to: ‘C:\WINCE600\PUBLIC\COMMON\OAK\DRIVERS\ETHDBG\RNDISMINI\HOST’

    10.   Press ‘Next’ button. RNDIS Connection is made.

    11.   In network connections, make sure to set an IP and subnet mask similar to that set on the device.

    Example: Set IP as 192.168.1.24 and subnet mask as 255.255.255.0.

    12.   From Platform Builder, select Target | Connectivity Options. Set:

    a.      Download to Ethernet

    b.      Transport to Ethernet

    c.      Click on the Settings button and select the device (on the debug console, you should see that the device is sending BOOTME packets).

    d.      Apply these settings.

    13.   Attach the device

  • Before installing the new version of BSP, do I need to uninstall the previous one or backup anything?

    Thanks,

    Luan
