Hex2000 options for F2808 SCI-A boot

Siraj Podikunju

I am trying to create the hex file to download firmware through the SCI-A port of a F2808.

I've tried sending the file created by running "hex2000 program.out -boot -sci8 -a" but the new code does now seem to load. I send the file after setting GPIO34 to zero and resetting the CPU. I use HyperTerminal to send the file.

Are there any other options I need to specify to create the right boot image file?

Thank you.

Hi Siraj,

which are the GPIO pins you're using for SCI connection?

Thanks for following up, Raffaele.

One of my colleagues discovered C2oooprog at codeskin.com and that helped us understand and resolve our issues - just sending the hex file does not work! The process is not that simple and C2oooprog automates it all. Thanks to codeskin.com.
