NAME
fpga_load - Xorcom Astribank (xpp) firmware tool
SYNOPSIS
fpga_load [-g] [-r] [-v] -D {/proc/bus/usb|/dev/bus/usb}/BUS/DEV
fpga_load [-g] [-v] -D {/proc/bus/usb|/dev/bus/usb}/BUS/DEV -I firmware.hex [-b dump.bin] [-i]
fpga_load -h
DESCRIPTION
fpga_load loads the FPGA firmware to the Xorcom Astribank device. The syntax resembles that of fxload(8).OPTIONS
-b dump.bin- Before writing firmware, bump the processed binary file to dump.bin.
-D DEVICE
- Required. The device to read from/write to. On modern UDEV-based system this is usually /dev/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num, where bus_num and device_num are the first two numbers in the output of lsusb(8). On older systems that use usbfs, it is usually /proc/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num.
-r
- Reset the Astribank and renumerate its USB connection to power on product ID.
-g
- Dump all eeprom data to standard output.
-I fireware_file
- The firmware file to write to the device.
-i
-
Show information about the firmware file (valid only with -I option).
Example:
In particular, the calculated checksum should match the output of sum(1) on the binary firmware file generated by the -b option.
-v
- Increase verbosity. May be used multiple times.
-h
- Displays usage message.
