Boot Loader
A DIVISION OF TRIMBLE
60 Firmware Overview
Boot Loader
The boot loader provides low-level functionality. This program provides the low level
hardware support for configuring communication settings, loading
Application Firmware
and storing and retrieving data to/from flash.
When a module is powered up or reset, the boot loader code is automatically loaded and
executed.
Note
Unlike previous ThingMagic modules (M4e and M5e) the ThingMagic Nano
bootloader should effectively be invisible to the user. The ThingMagic Nano
is by default configured to auto-boot into application firmware and for any
operations that require the module be in bootloader mode the MercuryAPI
will handle the switching automatically.
