4.1.3 Using the command line
MCU programming with PC Bootloader tool can be also done via command line interface as follows:
bootloader –f <file_name> –p <com_port> [-e <eeprom size>]
For example following line:
bootloader –f C:\work\SerialNet_ZigBit_Rf230B.srec –p COM4
can be used to load C:\work\SerialNet_ZigBit_Rf230B.srec image via port enumerated as COM4. Figure 4-2
shows a screenshot with an example of successful firmware upload using command line control.
Note: With the command line COM-port settings will be automatically used as given in Table 2-1 and cannot be changed.
Besides, when the
-e <eeprom_size> option is specified the EEPROM section is cleared.
To see help information run:
bootloader -h
