Hi,

Hi,

Your DA1468x PRO kit came with a Segger J-Link Lite interface, that you must connect to your PC and the PLT board via USB. The updated GU firmware file can be found in the folder:DA1458x_DA1468x_PLT_v_4.1.0.132\executables\binaries\GU.

You should use the flash programmer in the SmartSnippets toolbox to upgrade the firmware.

Hi,

Hi,
I only see one file in the folder and the programmer said I successfully programmed the board(I included the screenshot) . Even after updating the firmware,I receive the same error "GU FIRMWARE VERSION IS NOT VALID" (code 25) log says the version is v 3.5.

You only uploaded the

You only uploaded the firmware to the RAM of the GU. Please see attached instructions on how to upgrade the flash on the PLT board.

Thanks !

Thanks !
I manage to update the firmware now. And it works fine.

一个问题:
固件是在GU板本身还是PLT主板上更新的?

Hi wsiaxel,

Hi wsiaxel,

The fw concerns the Golden Unit only.

Thanks MT_dialog

The Golden Unit board itself

黄金单位板本身没有任何外部存储器。这意味着固件升级是在PLT板的内存上完成的。

Hi wsiaxel,

Hi wsiaxel,

There is an external memory on the PLT tool, that memory is connected to the GU, and the fw that is uploaded on the GU when the device starts up its loaded from that flash memory. To sum up the flash that holds the fw is located on the PLT tool but the fw burned concerns the Golden Unit not the PLT tool.

Thanks MT_dialog
