Good image download image files used to merge into one or more of the programming board of.

• Image download in progress, it should ensure that the USB port of the connection has been disconnected.
• IDT software must be activated, and then access veneer, or veneer will not enter the download mode.
• If the IDT software is configured to “Auto Run” mode, the software should be closed after the download is complete or cancel the “AutoRun” mode configuration, so as not to make the other board to the download mode.

Image download steps are as follows:

Step 1 in the “ImageDownload” tab, click the toolbar , configuration-related information (configuration operations, see ” Configuring Download Parameters ”).

Step 2 Select “Operation> Run” or click the toolbar Start the download.

   If the IDT software is configured to "Auto Run", then automatically start the download. 

Step 3 Connect the host and the board, and a single on-board power, start the download.

Step 4 Wait for the download to complete.

  Users can select the download process "Operation> Stop" or click the toolbarStop downloading.

Step 5 After the download is complete, board the blue indicator light flashes quickly. At this point the board from the USB interface, cable pull out.

—- End

Download process may be an exception occurs, such as user unplug USB, the hardware exception occurs, data transmission errors. Software prompts the user to download fails, as shown in Figure 1. Then you need to reset the board to re-power (no need to re-insert the board), reset the software will automatically re-download.

Figure 1 Download Error

Image merger-related images and data for the packaged image file, available to ImageDownload to download.

Image merge steps are as follows:

Step 1 into the “ImageMerge” tab.

Step 2 Click, Add the files need to be merged.

Step 3 Select the question (requires) the merged file (that is, before the file types check box is selected).

    If you use the "COM + USB" mode download, must be packaged RamInit items and USBLoad items.\\
    If the download Modem image, must be packaged CPLoad items and CP items.\\
    If you need to load the customized installation package into the image, Customer must pack items.\\
    RamInit items and USBLoad items must be selected or not selected; CPLoad items and CP items must be selected or not selected.\\
    

Step 4 Select “Operation> Merge” or click the toolbar The merger.

Step 5 In the pop-up “Version” dialog box, enter the combined image file version number.

Step 6 In the pop-up “Save As” dialog box, select the merged image file save path and complete file name.

—- End

• Add a file selection box is automatically selected for the merged file do not need to, you can uncheck.
• The initial download or upgrade, all the file types to be selected.
• Need to “ flash.bin “and ” IPL.bin ” file into a “ Flash.nb0 ” and “ IPL.nb0 ” file, please use the “ bintonb0 ” folder in the tool for conversion.
• Custom installation package file must use the “customer file generation tools” folder in the tools packaged into a file.

Version check is designed to: prevent users from making an image upgrade, the hardware platform is not compatible with the image downloaded to the phone.

Version check of the strategy is as follows:

• In the combined version of the image will be packaged into an image file, the details, see “ image merger “and” Step 5 . ”
• In COM + USB mode to download (the production line to download), the version number in the image file is written to the phone's NV .
• In USB mode download (image update), the image file in the version number from the phone NV read the version number of the check, the check will be allowed to download.

In order to facilitate the OEM manufacturers for their own version of the definition of validation programs, IDT has achieved an open version of the program interface, the interface defined in the header “ Iversion.h “in. Which contains 3 a need to implement interfaces, such as Table 1 shows.

" IVersion.h "document to be delivered package from the directory" 03 production test tool "in the" version check "folder access.

Table 1, the interface need to implement

　 Implement a custom version of the following steps:

Step 1 Create a project a dynamic link library.

Step 2 to define a concrete class to implement IVersion interface.

Step 3 Define a form IVersion * GetVersionSolution (void) function, the function creates a specific class of the object and returns its pointer.

Step 4 will GetVersionSolution export as a dynamic link library interface.

Step 5 generates a compilation called VersionSolution.dll dynamic link library file.

—- end

If the OEM manufacturers do not implement their own version of the verification program, which does not provide its own VersionSolution.dll , IDT will use the default version of the verification program.

• The version number of image description in the form of: 1.0.0 .62 ; the version number is ” . “numbers divided into 4 segments, respectively: the main version number, sub-version number, revision number and firmware models, they are all decimal integers; where the major version number and value of sub-version number is 0 ~ 255 , revision number value is 0 ~ 65535 , firmware, type a value of 0 ~ 4294967295 .
• The version number needs 8 bytes to store in the NV storage forms such as in Figure 1 below.

 Figure 1, the storage form of version number\\

• Check the version number, only the firmware comparison model, the firmware is identical to that verification by model, or that the check failed.
