Alternate firmware update
If you don't want to register and download STM32CubeProgrammer then you can also use the dfu-util
command-line utility to download new firmware into the PowerDAC-B.
For this you will have to use the command-line to update firmware.
Download dfu-util here: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/dfu-util-0.11-binaries.tar.xz
After unpacking open shell/command window and change directory to “dfu-util-0.11-binaries“
Depending on your operating system change directory to the directory containing the
dfu-util
executable for
your operating system.
Disconnect
blue
USB power cable from the PowerDAC-B.
Use tweezers to set the red jumpers on rear of PowerDAC-B
to PROGRAM configuration (see Jumper settings on page 9).
Now connect a
USB cable
from the PowerDAC-B to your computer.
Now copy the firmware file (see page 10) e.g.
PDRS140.bin
into the same directory containing the dfu-util
executable.
From this directory execute:
dfu-util -a 0 --dfuse-address 0x08000000 -D PDRS140.bin
If this completes without errors (File downloaded successfully) your firmware should be updated.
Disconnect the USB cable from PowerDAC-B and reset jumpers back to normal or fixed.
After power-up PowerDAC-B the new firmware is used.
