Software

A terminal emulator is required to communicate with the programmer. We recommend Cutecom. HyperTerminal or similar will also work as long as the emulator is able to send a file.

Usage

Connect to the programmer using settings 115200 8N1.

On connection the programmer will introduce itself and offer a prompt.

Flashing Uboot

We recommend downloading uboot from pepe2k repository. Github link.

You must erase the chip before flashing uboot. At the prompt type e and enter. Then answer y to confirm (or anything else to cancel). This will take around 6 seconds to complete.
