Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L137, AM1707

Hi,

We are currently using EVM OMAPL137 board & DaVinci-PSP-SDK-03.20.00.12 for linux.

For loading dsp-spi-ais, arm ubl-spi & U-boot  we are using OMAP-L137_FlashAndBootUtils_2_20. 

we have followed the link given below for how to use serial flasher for OMAPL137

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Serial_Boot_and_Flash_Loading_Utility_for_OMAP-L137

But after executing the given command sfh_OMAP-L137.exe -flash_dsp <DSP UBL AIS file> <ARM UBL binary file> <binary application file> it gives the following messages

(AIS Parse): BOOTME received!

(AIS Parse): Performing Start-Word Sync...

The board kind of hangs at above given condition. 

Can anyone provide me solution for above given issue.

Thanks & Regards

Jitendra

    you might need to give flashType argument while flashing.

    Hi Nagabhushana,

    I tried using flashtype argument but then also it was giving the same error.

    The command used is given below:

    sfh_OMAP-L137.exe -p COM5 -baud 230400 -flashType SPI_MEM -flash_dsp <DSP UBL AIS file> <ARM UBL binary file> <binary application file> .

    Can you help us in above issue.

     

    Thanks & Regards

    Jitendra

    Hi Jitendra,

    sfh_OMAP-L137.exe supports many target types, OMAPL137_v2, OMAPL137_v1, C6747, AM1707 (default is OMAPL137_v2). Can you verify whether the behavior changes if you specify a different -targetType option?

    Hi Jitendra,

    Could you please specify file/path relative to the PSP that you are using for the files listed in  <DSP UBL AIS file> <ARM UBL binary file> <binary application file> ?

    You need to be careful which you chose because they must have the proper magic number in order to load correctly. I know it is possible to repair the boot image on the Spectrum Digital AM1707 EVM with images packaged in 3.20.00.14 PSP. If I get some spare time, I'll try and recreate my test setup. I've since moved on to a custom board and have not worked with the EVM in some time.

    On a final note, I don't remember using the -flash_dsp option to flash the AM1707EVM. To the best of my recollection, the AM1707 does not have a dsp in it. You should be using the ARM UBL and your binary image. 

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    Hi Jitendra Jagasia,

    Even I had the same issue , i specified -targetType as OMAPL137_v1 and it worked. and you  need -flash_dsp option.
