Terminal Configuration: Building and Sending the Hex Image
Note: If you place files in the compressed drive <CMP>: during the build,
TCM displays the message:
About to complete erase drive X
warning that the contents of drive <x:> will be erased. Verify that the
drive letter listed is the correct Stacker drive and NOT your hard
drive!
If the hard drive is listed (or a drive other than the expected Stacker
drive), press the Cancel button to cancel the build and refer to the
section Stacker Post Installation in Chapter 2 for information on
properly setting up Stacker.
During the build, TCM copies the “hidden system” files, the compressed volume files, and
the uncompressed volume files, in that order.
If the build is successful, TCM displays the elapsed time, hex file size (flash space used by the
script), end segment address, and image size. To calculate the amount of flash remaining,
subtract the hex file size from the Image Size set in the Script Properties Window.
If the Build Fails
If the build fails, TCM displays a series of messages. The first describes what caused the build
to fail, the second states that the build failed.
If the total amount of flash required by the script exceeds the image size, a TCM error results
and the build fails. To correct this situation, reduce the number of files in the uncompressed
volume or reduce the size of the compressed volume. Refer to the section Set the Script
Parameters in this chapter for more information on setting the image size appropriately.
