Operation
-mode dualhdkskew is to set the board into Dual HDK Mode with skew ON
Note: Once the HDK is set to Dual HDK Mode it will stay in this mode until another command is issued
to put it into another mode. It is recommended to always switch back into Idle Mode before switching in
between modes.
To set up the second board “B” with skew OFF run the following commands:
C:\ Command Prompt

-port COM4 is the PC’s COM port that the HDK communicates on as indicated by Windows
Device Manger
460800 is the baud rate of the PC connection
-r is the rate index of the bit rate the file is to be decoded at. See Table 23 Standard Rate Table
for AMBE-3000. To use rate words to set the rate – the format must be six words in hex separated
by a space as shown in the following example:
-r 0x0460 0x0986 0x0000 0x0000 0x0000 0x5660
-mode dualhdk is to set the board into Dual HDK Mode
Note: Once the HDK is set to Dual HDK Mode it will stay in this mode until another command is issued
to put it into another mode. It is recommended to always switch back into Idle Mode before switching in
between modes.
Now connect the two boards “A” to “B” using a cable as shown in Figure 24 Two HDK boards
