Instructions to Flash BIOS to SPI
The development board requires a two-partition SPI image for SPI-0 and SPI-1
respectively. The Descriptors sit on SPI-0 while the BIOS on SPI-1.
1.
Remove all the power supplies to the board.
2.
Connect the Dedi-Prog SF100 at J8E1.
3.
Set jumpers J8C4 and J8C5 at 1-2.
4.
Set jumper J8D1 at 1-2 for SPI-0 and flash the .bin image corresponding to
SPI-0.
5.
Set the jumper J8D1 at 2-3 for SPI-1 and flash the .bin image corresponding
to SPI-1.
6.
Once the programming is successful on the SPI, set J8C4, J8C5 and J8D1 at
1-X
7.
Remove the Dedi-Prog connector.

H8 Programming
The microcontroller firmware for system management/keyboard/mouse control can be
upgraded in two ways. The user can either use a special DOS* utility (in-circuit) or
use an external computer connected (remote) to the system via the serial port on the
board.
•
If the user chooses to use an external computer connected to the system via the
serial port, there are three jumpers that must first be set correctly. Please refer to
