FW rev r.s\
protocol ver 4.0\ Hello command.
Note 1: No other commands will be
available until the card has received
this hello.
Note 2: This command will also
enable checksums.
Note 3: Cards are designed to be
hot-swappable. To sync with the start
of a new command, the cards will
wait for a <lf> character before
looking for a valid command.
conf 0 - conf 0 *too long to list* Configuration settings
Retrieves the card's configurable
settings. Each addressable block is
represented by a single line. Dynamic
status may be included in response,
but is usually reported in info only.
- - info info *too long to list* Dynamic status info
Blocks with static settings only will
usually not be included, see conf
above.
- - chk off chk off ok Checksum off
If issued twice in succession, this
command will disable checksums.
Note: Responses will still have the
checksums appended.
NOTE1:? command turns the
checksum on again
- - locate on
<seconds>
locate off locate on 3
locate off ok Card locator
This command will cause all the
LEDs to flash for a user specified
number of seconds. If omitted, the
value <seconds> will be set to a
default of 120 seconds. The flashing
can be terminated at any time with
locate off.
- - address Address address <address> Card address
This command will force the module
to check and update its current rack
and slot address. This is normally
only done at start-up.
- - filename filename sditd3gdx5-0-
103.mfw
filename sditd3gdx-0-
321.ffw <name>'.'<extensio
n> Firmware update
The <name> part must match the
card's hardware and include a
revision number, and the extension
must be either 'ffw' for FPGA
firmware or 'mfw' for microcontroller
firmware. After running this
command, the board will be ready to
receive its new firmware in Intel-hex
format.
- - fin Fin ok Finalize
Finalize the programming of the
microcontroller. See description of
the uC boot loader (separate
