Getting Started with JTAG Flash Loader Connect the Jtag cable 10 pin ribbon cable(2x5 IDC) with the red wire connect to pin 1 (square pad) of the, J2 connector on IsoPod, or J6 connector on MiniPod, or J8 connector on ServoPod, or J2 connector on PlugaPod, or J2 connector on TiniPod. Connect the Jtag DB25M direct to your PC parallel port (or through an extension straight through cable if more length is required). Apply the power to the IsoPod. At the DOS command Prompt, manually enter the command line below, flash_over_jtag flash805.cfg filename.s Where "flash_over_jtag" & "flash805.cfg" are included with the JTAG software, and filename.s is the Srecord file need to to be flashed) To use LPT2 you must specify the port address as below, flash_over_jtag flash805.cfg V060-2.S -p0x278 More details are explained in the flash_over_jtag manual Note: flash805.cfg file should work for both DSP56F803 & DSPF805 CPU. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note for XP/NT/2000 Users These Operating Systems do not allow ordinary user programs direct access to system hardware. Hence, in order to use the JTAG Flash Loader (which flashes programs via the parallel port), additional software must be employed. One example of this software, with instructions below, To get it running under WinNT/2000/XP a special kernel driver is needed. These systems do not allow direct access to I/O ports. Version Epsilon 0.4 of flash_over_jtag no longer requires the use of Userport.sys and userport.exe . Instead, it loads zlportio.sys if needed by WinNT/2000/XP systems to access the parallel port. Just make sure the file zlportio.sys is in the directory in which flash_over_jtag is run, so that it may automatically load the port driver. For example, c:\IsoMax\V6\ If you are experiencing an error message concerning the port driver not being loaded, use the included driver_remove.exe to remove any old versions of a port driver. Then retry the flash_over_jtag command to reload the version of zlportio if needed Under Win95/98/Me all this is not needed, and flash_over_jtag will not load zlportio.
