Q: How do I modify ADSLOAD.HWT to match my ADS development system?

When you download the standard version of ADSLOAD.HWT, the file may not be correctly set up for your system configuations. ADSLOAD.HWT must be set up for both the size of your CE image and the amount of RAM your system has.

At the top of ADSLOAD.HWT you can find a section that looks like this:


; Onboard flash set aside for NKLOAD.BIN
0xA110C401 0x00800000 ; 8MB
;0xA110C401 0x00A00000 ; 10MB
;0xA110C401 0x00C00000 ; 12MB


; Location in RAM to load CE image
;0x00B002AD 0xC0800000 ; 8MB CE, 16MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC0600000 ; 10MB CE, 16MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC0400000 ; 12MB CE, 16MB RAM


0x00B002AD 0xC8800000 ; 8MB CE, 32MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC8600000 ; 10MB CE, 32MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC8400000 ; 12MB CE, 32MB RAM


;0x00B002AD 0xC9800000 ; 8MB CE, 64MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC9600000 ; 10MB CE, 64MB RAM
;0x00B002AD 0xC9400000 ; 12MB CE, 64MB RAM


The semicolon is seen as a comment marker, so any line with a leading semicolon is ignored. We have tried to provide all possible configurations, so in most cases you will be able to simply comment and uncomment a couple lines to get the file to match your system.

For example, only the red lines in the above sample will be used by the system.

The first section is the addressing for NKLOAD.BIN. Make sure that this allocation is larger than the NKLOAD.BIN image size you are using. In the above example, we are using an 8 MB image.

The next section is the RAM addressing for loading the image. This is dependent both on the size of the image you are using (NKLOAD.BIN) and the amount of available RAM in your system. In the above sample, we are using an 8MB image on a system with 32MB of RAM.

If you do not see a line to match your image and/or hardware configuration, feel free to contact us for additional help.
