Download Compact 7 OS Run-time Image to VDX-6318
With the
MyTargetDevice
connectivity profile created and the SBC target device associated with this
profile, you are ready to download the Compact 7 OS run-time image from the Development station
to the target device.
Work through the following steps to download the OS run-time image to the target device:
From the VS2008 IDE, select and use
MyTargetDevice
device profile as shown in Figure 30.
Fig. 30 -
select MyTargetDevice from VS2008 IDE
From the VS2008 menu, select
Target → Attach Device
to initiate the download process and
bring up the
Device Status
screen, as shown in Figure 31.

Waiting for bootme request from target device
Power on (or reset power) the target device.
As the Compact 7 splash screen is showing, press “1” to launch the Ethernet bootloader,
EBOOT.BIN
, before the 10 seconds delay is timed out.
As the
EBOOT.BIN
launches, it sends a series of BOOTME messages to the development
station to trigger the OS run-time image download process.
As the image download takes place, the
Device Status
screen displays download activities,
as shown in Figure 32.
Note:
Once launched, the Ethernet bootloader, EBOOT.BIN, will continue to broadcast BOOTME messages
to the development station and timed out after about 3 minutes. If you failed to initiate the OS run-
time image before the timed out period, you need to re-initiate the download process again.
