Building The Image; Sending The Hex Image - Motorola MC3000R - Win CE 5.0 Core 312 MHz Integration Manual

Building the Image

Once the script is created, the hex image defined by the script can be built.
As part of the build, TCM performs a check on the script which verifies that all files referenced in the script exist.
This check is important for previously created scripts to ensure that files referenced in the script are still in the
designated locations.
NOTE The mobile computer communication must be established and external power must be provided, before
resetting the mobile computer into IPL.
To build an image:

A check is performed and if there are no errors, the partition hex files are created.
5.
If the build fails, the hex files are not be created and TCM displays an error message. Two of the most common
reasons for a build failure are:
•
Files defined in the script can not be found. This error can occur when the files referenced by the script are
no longer stored on the development computer or the folders where they are stored were renamed.
•
The total amount of flash memory space required by the script exceeds the image size. To correct this,
reduce the number of files in the partition or increase the size of the partition. See
on page 4-10 for more information about setting the image size appropriately.

Sending the Hex Image

Once the hex file is built, it can be downloaded to the mobile computer.
