3. The binary file downloaded to CX400 for updating the F/W in corrupted case must be led with
the prefix commands. “Prefixed commands + binary data” can be sent to CX400 by entering “
Copy <prefix Commands file>+< Binary Data file> LPT1: “ in DOS prompt.
The syntax of Prefix is :
<Prefix >: 0x1B+0x24+0x33+"Start offset(1 byte)"+"Data Count(1 byte)"
"Start offset" èTo Define the Starting offset for programming the On-Board Flash ROM.
The actually Starting Offset is got by multiplying "Start offset(1 byte)"
with (2** 16 ).
By the way CHIP ERASE is performed only when "Start Offset"is set to zero.
"Data Count" è To Define the Data Count in the following Binary Data.
The actually Data Count is got by multiplying "Data Count" with (2** 14 ).
< e.g. >
1. 0x1B+0x24+0x33+0x00+0x04 + " Binary Data programmed on Flash ROM"
è Send the above data to Printer, then thhe Binary Data will be stored on Flash ROM
from offset 0x000000 to 0x00ffff.
2. 0x1B+0x24+0x33+0x20+0x40 + " Binary Data programmed on Flash ROM"
è The Binary Data will be stored on Flash ROM from 0x200000 to 0x2fffff.
3. 0x1B+0x24+0x33+0x00+0x80 + "Binary Data programmed on Flash ROM".
è The Binary Data will be stored on Flash ROM
