ARM DS-5 Using the Debug Hardware Configuration Utilities

Managing the firmware on your debug hardware unit4.5 Upgrading an LVDS probeYou can use the RVI Update utility to install an upgrade to your Low Voltage DifferentialSignaling (LVDS) probe. This upgrade procedure is necessary only if you want to make use ofthe Serial Wire Debug (SWD) feature. This is a once-only upgrade that is required if your LVDSprobe was released with RVI v3.0, because this type of probe is not SWD-capable.To upgrade your LVDS probe:1. In the RVI Update utility, select Upgrade LVDS Probe... from the RVI menu.2. You are prompted to confirm your option to upgrade the probe. Select Yes, and the RVIUpdate utility begins the update process, during which you are reminded not to disconnectthe probe, nor to power off your debug hardware unit, until the process is completed. Thisis shown in the following figure:Figure 4-11 Progress during probe updateNoteTo perform the upgrade you must have v3.1 firmware or later installed on your debughardware unit.You must also have an LVDS probe that is at least at v2.If you have a v1 probe (board number HPI-0090x), you must replace it with a laterversion. If so, contact ARM for more information.4.5.1 See alsoTasks• Installing a firmware update or patch release on page 4-5.Concepts• Troubleshooting firmware upgrade installations on page 10-9.ReferenceARM DSTREAM System and Interface Design Reference:• Serial Wire Debug on page 3-5.ARM RVI and RVT System and Interface Design Reference:• Chapter 7 Serial Wire Debug.ARM DUI 0498F Copyright © 2010-2012 ARM.
