IPC@CHIP DK41 / DK51

Getting Started V2.2

For transfer via the TCP/IP network, the IPC@CHIP can be identified by either the serial number or IP

address.

Press the respective start button for the type of transfer you have selected to use. After the hex file

transfer has been completed, the Flash programming cycle will require about 15 seconds during which

'P’ characters can be seen coming out to the terminal. The terminal will indicate "Done” when the

programming cycle has completed, as shown below. This will be followed by an IPC@CHIP reboot.

Done

At the CHIPTOOL display you may see some error messages if the CHIPTOOL is not able to re-

establish communication following the @CHIP-RTOS download. This can often be the case because

the flash disk needs to be reformatted due to a change in size of the @CHIP-RTOS and the

consequent loss of set-up information (e.g. IP configuration). You will then need to repeat the IP

configuration steps.

3.2.3 CHIP.INI configuration file

The @CHIP-RTOS holds its non-volatile configuration information in a CHIP.INI file found in the root

directory of the A: Flash disk drive. This ASCII text file can be adjusted either directly with a text editor

or with particular commands from the terminal. The figure below shows a few example entries that

might be found in a CHIP.INI file.

[IP]

ADDRESS=192.168.200.1

NETMASK=255.255.255.0

GATEWAY=192.168.200.10

DHCP=0

[STDIO]

STDOUT=COM TELNET

FOCUSKEY=6

[SERIAL]

COM_BAUD=9600

Refer to the HTML @CHIP-RTOS API Documentation for a complete specification of the entries

possible in this configuration file.

Since SC12@CHIP-RTOS version 1.10Beta / SC13@CHIP-RTOS version 0.91Beta, it is also possible to enter the MAC-address of the

internal Ethernet controller, instead of the serial number.
