Uploader

The uploader utility is a simple uploader and terminal app for LPC8xx chips.
The LPC8xx is assumed to be connected via a modified FTDI interface.

Installation

The following applies to Mac OSX and Linux:

• make sure Go has been installed and GOPATH has been set up
• enter this command: go get -u github.com/jeelabs/embello/tools/uploader
• the resulting binary will be available as $GOPATH/bin/uploader

Usage

Report the chip type and its serial id using interface "/dev/ttyUSB0":

uploader /dev/ttyUSB0

Upload "firmware.bin" to the LPC8xx board:

uploader /dev/ttyUSB0 firmware.bin

Upload, waiting for the board to be inserted:

uploader -w /dev/ttyUSB0 firmware.bin

Upload, connect as terminal after the upload (at 115200 baud):

uploader -s /dev/ttyUSB0 firmware.bin

Upload, connect as terminal, quit when the connection is idle for 5 seconds:

uploader -s -i 5 /dev/ttyUSB0 firmware.bin

Upload "firmware.bin" to a remote telnet system, such as ser2net:

uploader -t 192.168.1.123:4000 firmware.bin

Whereby the ser2net config is assumed to have a entry of the following form:

4000:telnet:600:/dev/ttyUSB0:115200 remctl
