srm
srm is a CLI tool for upgrading device firmware using the SRM online service. The tool communicates with the siliXcon SRM server. Hence the name.
The SRM bootloader is a local tool for performing the flashing process. This tool establishes a dialog with the device, our server and optionally, with the user - to offer available options. The firmware (container) release selection is either manual or automated.
The current version of LaunchPad features a GUI for upgrading device firmware. Note that this tool is designed for low-level operations and no longer supports interactive mode.
Any CLI tool has an embedded manual page. To view it, execute e.g. srm -?
Command line mode
srm mediates communication between the device and SRM server. It read main
information from the device and it send to the SRM server together with
mandatory parameter SRM QUERY. This data is processed by SRM server.
The result from the server is processed by srm.
srm [connection options] [general options] {SRM QUERY}
The parameter SRM QUERY is mandatory and specifies the operation. The
available operations are:
UPGRADELISTLISTALL
You can specify the firmware version you want to list or upgrade to. Specification of the QUERY is described in the SRM query documentation.
Output for srm LIST:
Output for srm LISTALL:
If output format is set to JSON, the standard output for srm -f json LIST 2>NUL is:
And similar output we get for srm -f json LISTALL. Standard output is:
