hex55 Update?

Robert Applebee

I am using v4.3.5 of hex55 to generate a boot image for a SPI flash.

Command line = hex55 -boot -v5505 -serial8 myApp.out -o myApp.bin

The problem is that myApp.bin does not have the 0x09AA signature as the first word. I saw a previous post that said he needed to update hex55 utility. Wherer can I find an update?

Hi Robert,

hex55 comes as part of the compiler install. You can download a later version of the compiler from here:

Thanks

I downloaded and installed "C5500 Code Generation Tools v4.3.9" but my version of hex55 is still 4.3.5 and it still doesn't produce a boot image with 0x09AA as the first word.

Turned out all I needed was the -b flag to generate a binary file.
