ArgumentDescription
-c <filename.ext>The path to a configuration file.
-dIf set, contents of each Flash page is deleted before writing. Else, previous data will be preserved if not specifically written to.
-e <filename.ext>The path to an EEPROM file (data that goes into EEPROM).
-f <filename.ext>The path to a Flash file (code that goes into Application Section).
-h <filename.ext>The name of the output header file. This file is later included in the bootloader.
-k <filename.ext>The name of the output key file. This file is later included in the bootloader.
-l [BLB12] [BLB11] [BLB02] [BLB01]Lock bits to set. These lock bits are set after all data has been transferred and before control is transferred to the updated application.
-nNonsense. Add a random number of nonsense records to an encrypted file. As nonsense records are ignored by the bootloader, this setting does not affect the application, only the predictability of the output file.
-o <filename.ext>Output file name. This is the encrypted file that may be distributed and sent to the target when it needs to be updated.
