Development Board Physical Reference 4.7 Other Headers 4.7.1 H8 Programming Headers 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 four jumpers that must be set correctly first. Please refer to Table 21 2 for a summary of these jumpers and refer to Figure 7 for the location of each jumper. Required Hardware: One Null Modem Cable and a Host Unit with a serial COM port (System used to flash the SUT) Here is the sequence of events necessary to program the H8. 1. Extract all files (keep them in the same folder) to a single directory of your choice on the host machine or on a floppy disk. 2. Connect a NULL modem cable to the serial ports of each platform (host and unit to be flashed). 3. With the board powered off, move the following jumpers to the programming stuffing option. a. J9G2 (remove) (default: 1-2), Sets SMC_INIT_CLK high. b. J7A1 (2-3) (default: 1-2), link the Host Unit to On Board H8. c. J8B2 (2-3) (default: 1-2), link the Host Unit to On Board H8. d. J9H1 (1-2) (default: 1-X), disable 1 Hz Clock. 4. Attach an AC brick or an ATX power supply to the system and power up the board. 5. From the directory where you extracted the files, run the "kscflash ksc.bin / remote" command to program the H8 via the serial port. 6. Follow the instructions the flash utility provides. 7. With the board powered off, return the jumpers to their default setting. Note: Make sure the board is not powered on, and the power supply is disconnected before moving any of the jumpers.
