    Downgrading From U-Boot 1.1.4/1.1.6 To U-Boot 1.1.3 On Cc9P9360 Modules To Run Old Wince5.X or Lxnetes-3.X Firmware, Using Nvram From Eeprom

    This document provides instructions for downgrading the U-Boot firmware from version 1.1.4/1.1.6 to version 1.1.3 on CC9P9360 modules in order to run older WinCE5.x or LxNETES-3.x firmware. It describes downloading the new U-Boot 1.1.3 binary, invalidating the environment in EEPROM, resetting to boot the new U-Boot, and saving the environment. It also notes that some modules have a resistor R2 that provides an interrupt from the on-module RTC while others do not.

    Downgrading from U-Boot 1.1.4/1.1.6 to U-Boot 1.1.

    3 on CC9P9360 modules to
    run old WinCE5.x or LxNETES-3.x firmware, using NVRAM from EEPROM.

    EOL Replacement

    CC-9P-T225-Z1 U-Boot 1.1.6 NVRAM in Flash, no R2


    FS-382 U-Boot 1.1.3 NVRAM in EEPROM, R2 populated
    populated

    CC-9P-T236-Z1 U-Boot 1.1.4 NVRAM in Flash, no R2


    FS-383 U-Boot 1.1.3 NVRAM in EEPROM, R2 populated
    populated

    FS-3013 U-Boot 1.1.3 NVRAM in EEPROM, no R2 CC-9P-V225-Z1 U-Boot 1.1.4 NVRAM in Flash, no R2
    populated populated
    Modules CC-9P-x2xx-Z1 have programmed NVRAM in a flash partition maintained by U-Boot 1.1.4 or higher. U-Boot
    1.1.3 and operating systems WinCE5.x, LxNETES-3.x expect NVRAM in on module EEPROM.

    Downgrade U-Boot and NVRAM into EEPROM from U-Boot console as following:

    Connect ethernet with TFTP server providing your latest U-Boot 1.1.3 binary or USB stick with this binary. If it fits
    your need, you can also use latest U-Boot 1.1.3 FS.3 binary from Digi:
    http://ftp1.digi.com/support/patches/uboot113fs3-binaries.zip
    http://ftp1.digi.com/support/patches/UBootFixes_113F3.htm

    On U-Boot 1.1.4/1.1.6 console type:


    # printenv ethaddr
    ethaddr=00:04:F3:xx:yy:zz <- remember the MAC address

    # update uboot tftp u-boot-cc9p9360val.bin <- to update via ethernet/TFTP


    or
    # update uboot usb u-boot-cc9p9360val.bin <- to update from USB mem stick

    # imm 50 500.2 <- invalidate environment in EEPROM


    0500: dd ? ff <- enter any value different from displayed one
    0501: 2b ? . <- enter "." to end modification of EERPOM
    # reset <- to boot (your) U-Boot 1.1.3 (check its output)

    U-Boot 1.1.3 should now boot with message:


    *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment
    # setenv ethaddr 00:04:F3:xx:yy:zz <- enter MAC you remembered above or from label/sticker
    # saveenv

    If you fail to downgrade, you can use the recovery instructions.

    Check if placment option R2 affects your application


    The CC9P9360 modules do have a on module Dallas DS1337 RTC. On modules FS-383 and FS-383 the interrupt
    output of this RTC is connected via a 0 Ohm resistor R2 to GPIO13, in order to allow software to get this interrupt.

    On all other CC9P9360 modules (e.g. FS-3013 and all CC-9P-?2?? replacements) the resistor R2 is not populated,
    allowing to use GPIO13 for other purposes (e.g. serial ring indicator). Drawback is, that you can't use the DS1337 RTC
    interrupt input in your software. If your software depends on this, you should either change the software or patch the
    module with a 0 Ohm connection on R2.
