Operating Modes
The BNA Bootloader provides two different
operating modes:
•
Normal Mode
(default)
•
Stay in Bootloader Mode
Normal Mode
is the default, which directly starts an
application firmware found in Flash memory. If no
firmware could be found, then the bootloader
command shell is started by the BNA (
Figure 6-1
).
This execution flow can be influenced only by
pressing the Mode Button and changing the mode
to
Stay in Bootloader Mode
.
Stay in Bootloader Mode
interrupts the default boot-
loader startup sequence and tells the bootloader not
to start an possible existing application firmware in
the Flash memory.

Switching the Operating Mode
In order to switch the Bootloader operating mode, a
pointed object, like an unfolded paper clip or a
sharp pen, is required.
For changing the operating modes, there is a time
window of about 3 seconds after reset. The
following steps must be performed to successfully
change the bootloader mode (Refer also to
