objcopy options for header KDS MK10

[kappa74]

Good morning,

I use KDS1.1.1 for micro K10. I created a compilation profile for updating my software using the bootloader.

In the Toolchain I checked "Create flash image" and in "Cross ARM GNU Create Flash Image" I select Motorola S-record with option --srec-len=80 --srec-forceS3.

The file created starts with:

"S01300004652493350525F626F6F742E7372656348"

but is not recognized by the bootloader. To solve it, I need that the first line is: "S0030000FC"

Is there any option in objcopy for KDS to remove the comment in the first line of the Motorola file, to get "S0030000FC"?

Thank you

Regards

Mirko

The SRecord tool can be used for all kind of binary file (and S-Record) manipulations, including CRC generation (CRC Checksum Generation with ‘SRecord’ Tools for GNU and Eclipse | MCU on Eclipse )

I ran into the same problem. After calling objcopy to convert the ELF/COFF file into a S-Record I use the tool 'srec_cat' to remove the header:

srec_cat FileNameWithHeader.srec -o FileNameWithOutHeader.srec -header=""
