3.7 Telnet Interface
A Telnet server is integrated within the BDI. The Telnet channel is used by the BDI to output error
messages and other information. Also some basic debug tasks may be done by using this interface.
Enter help at the Telnet command prompt to get a list of the available commands.
Telnet Debug features:
• Display and modify memory locations
• Display and modify general and special purpose registers
• Single step a code sequence
• Set hardware breakpoints (for code and data accesses)
• Load a code file from any host
• Start / Stop program execution
• Programming and Erasing Flash memory
During normal debugging with Tornado, there is no need for connecting to the Telnet server. The
Telnet interface may be useful during the first installation of the bdiWind system or in case of special
debug needs (e.g. setting breakpoints on variable access).
Note:
The Telnet command RESET does only reset the target system. The configuration file is not loaded
again. If the configuration file has changed, use the Telnet command BOOT to reload it.
Note:
The DUMP command uses TFTP to write a binary image to a host file. Writing via TFTP on a Linux/
Unix system is only possible if the file already exists and has public write access. Use "man tftpd" to
get more information about the TFTP server on your host.
