About uploading the firmware #12

Closed SCWhite closed 4 years ago

SCWhite commented 4 years ago

HI, this project is really awesome.

I have a few question about uploading the firmware. due to not familiar with XMOS chips, so bare with me if i ask a silly question.

  1. Do I need to get a xTAG debug adapter to upload the firmware? or I can get it done by any JTAG-USB cable?

  2. Seems that I can't use the "USB to Host" to upload the firmware, right ?

  3. I'm getting error message by using windows: "C:/Program Files (x86)/XMOS/xTIMEcomposer/Community_14.2.3/bin/xflash.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" and it might cause by the JAVA runtime environment error according to this post: https://www.xcore.com/viewtopic.php?t=6938 is there a way to use xflash alone? that will be great.

Thanks about making this cool project, looking forward to give it a go.

  1. Yes you need the XTAG adapter.
  2. Firmware upload via USB is not supported (but this can be done with a little bit of work).
  3. You might ask this question to XMOS directly. I use a Mac or Linux.
