Flash Downloader

 ·  Posted: 22.06.2017 - 18:13  ·  #1
I am trying to write my own Delphi program to download to an XMEGA using FlashDownLoader.

But it seems to me that there is an extra 2 byte parameter to the 'D' command that is not documented, and it appears to specify the number of bytes that are to follow.

Am I correct?

Also, can the user signature row be updated with this driver, and if so, how?

Hello Merlin,

yes, the UserRow is supported. For better understanding and for
help to build your own one I attach the complete Delphi sources.

Thanks again Rolf. On reading the source it seems that the extra two bytes I was referring to only apply if the download refers to a CPU and the CPU type is PDI, which I guess includes XMEGAs.

Also sending the user row involves sending the command 'U' which the documentation states 'Host requests an upload of the content of the Loaders buffer'.

Perhaps 'DocuTools' FlashLoader Command list needs updating?

Similarly AVRCo Standard driver section 3.51.5.4 FlashDownloader Functions

Hi Rolf.

On examining the code further, for XMEGAs at least U erases the User page, (which is the first part of the transfer), followed by D command then R command, which is correctly documented. There are no parameters for U and R commands.

Sorry to have misled you.

Also, Only DocuStdDriver.pdf updated, not DocuTools.pdf.

Ich wärme das kurz auf: Welche Delphi-Version benötigt man für die Compilierung des Programms?
