Flashing a new image into TRMxx
INDUSTRIAL LINE is easy. You need following parts:
- TRM System, e.g. TRM416,
TRM816, TRM9xx
- PC system with terminal
software, e.g. Hyperterminal at MS Windows
- Nullmodemcable
- Image file, normally called
*.IMG, e.g. dnpx.img with a size 4.063.232 byte
Below you will find our simple
step guide:

Step 1:
Connect TRM system with your PC using serial nullmodemcable. Use COM1 at
TRM. Use a serial COM port at your PC. Note: if you PC does not have a
serial port, use a USB --> serial adapter.
Step 2:
Start terminal software on your PC, e.g. hyperterminal under MS Windows. Configure terminal software at
following parameters: 115200 bit/s, 8 data, 2 stopp, NO parity
Step3:
POWER ON terminal system. You will see the the booting
procedure inside of the TRM inside your terminal output - at the screen
of your PC!

Step 4:
Press and hold CTRL L (STRG L) during boot will start the flash loader
automatically.
Note: Pressing / holding CTRL L (STRG
L) will start the flash loader. If you are too slow / too late with
pressing you can miss the startup point. If the boot is finished it is
too late. Then you have to reboot and try it again. Do not worry if you
fail the correct point in the beginnet - you will be better and every
terminal has this flash loader point! But sometimes the timeout is very
short.
 Step 5:
After the flash loader is started use function 1 for download an image
using YMODEM-PROTOCOL
Step 6:
Transfer *.IMG file via terminal software into the TRM. Note: This will
take approx. 10 minutes!
Very important: Do not interrupt a
running flash process! This can damage the flash system urgently. If a
flash process is started, you have to wait until it is finished!
Step 7:
After flashing is complete, press CTRL C (STRG C) for rebooting the TRM.
The new flash image system will be used automatically after the next
boot! |
