List,
Do any of you know of free utilities that can be used to download 
executables (*.abs, *.exe) to cpu32 uprocessors? 
Thanks,
Jose

BD32 from Motorola and Macraigor's OCD work depending on your OS.

For a good answer you really need to say which OS and BDM module you are using.

List,
Thanks for the replies. I'm using a Wiggler, on a Win2k machine, to connect 
to a Motorola 68376 development board via a BDM port. I'm looking for a 
console application that will load an executable to the 376. Sorry for the 
confusion.
Jose

A wiggler with Macraigors OCD and a bit of programming will get you going, 
but it is a windows app, not a console app.

On the EFI332 project someone came up with a program called fmu.c that is 
compiled and loaded into RAM. Your ROM image is then loaded into another 
location in RAM that fmu knows about.

When run, fmu erases the ROM, then programs the ROM image from RAM. It's 
pretty bare bones, but it works.

Macraigors OCD can load fmu and your ROM images for you.

P&E flogs a command line program. It's not cheap for what you get. It is 
very cryptic. And if CPROG32S is representative, it might not even work.

Andrei,
I'm going to use Motorola's BD32 app to talk to the 376 and a driver called 
UserPort to use BD32 on my Win2k machine. Thank you, and the list, for your 
help.

Jose,

Please let me know if you get it to work. To my knowledge, nobody has 
managed to make BD32 work on any of Microsoft's NT based operating systems 
yet. The OS will not allow you to get at the parallel port to the 
satisfaction of BD32, even if you use giveio.

Does anybody know of different results?

If you do a web search for bd32nt, you will find an NT port of bd32. I
can't vouch for it however.

I did it once. There is a driver called rainport, which you can 
install. It redirects io accesses to a proper function which does the 
appropriate action. You can assign the allowed port adresses, so that 
it will only work with one lpt port and does not affect any other 
ports. The main disadvantage was that NT ran very very slowly, because 
of the polling of the parallel port. Every in or out command results 
in thousands of assembly instructions which you can clearly feel. So 
I´m not using it any longer. I´m using an old 486 with DOS (or Win 
3.11) to download and debug software or hardware.

List,
The good news is, after ignoring ~15 error messages, BD32 successfully 
loaded the S-record using the NT machine (400Mhz PII). The .cgf file 
contained the following two lines:
ICD1
1000
The bad news is I don't know which driver is resposible. The workstation has 
several port drivers including one for the wiggler and one for the xilinx 
tools. I'm not sure if the other drivers would have worked because the other 
time I did not ignore the error messages. The lab admin wants to remove 
UserPort and see if BD32 still works, but, we're unable to remove the keys 
from the registry. He feels that those might be affecting the other drivers. 
Have any of you installed and been able to completely remove all remnants of 
UserPort?
Jose

BD32 seems to work okay on XP.  It (XP) generates an interface task 
called NTVDM.EXE for each DOS window.  The bad news is that BD32 hogs 
about 99% of the (XP)CPU.  It appears to run in a tight polling 
loop.  I haven't run it much, but I've downloaded small pieces of 
code into the internal CPU RAM on a '376 board just for a test.

I tried running the newer (Win32 Console app) BD32nt also on XP, but 
it simply doesn't run.  It appears that the driver is not 
communicating with the board's BDM interface. I get the looping error 
message "reset still active on BDM".

On both tests, I used a P&E ICD - Rev D BDM pod.

This also happened on the NT machine. Did BD32 give you a bunch of errors 
before it opened?

With BD32, there were continuous errors on opening the program until 
I changed the 2 lines in the BD32.CFG file to "ICD1", "1".  This file 
previously contained the 2 lines "lpt1" "1".

I had mine set to "ICD1", "200" and it still did it.
