One of my colleagues asked a technical question about a PROGACMP capability (soft reset of ARM Cortex processors). He was told that the feature was added in a software version after the one we have currently.
How can we best upgrade to the newer version needed? Our CEM will need to do so too.
An additional question we had was whether we can also use "GO 1" or "GO 0" in a command line script too, to perform the right type of reset.
Thanks
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out with this inquiry. If the software has been purchased more than two years ago, the only solution would be to purchase a new software license for PROG-HL-ARM to be able to use the new "GO" functionality with the latest software. As for the second question, the parameter for the "GO" command is either 0 (hard reset) or 1 (soft reset). For hard reset, the target processor MUST have the RESET line connected from the hardware. Soft reset depends on the specific target processor you are using, however, in most cases we are using AIRCR to reset the processor.
