Creating a new Blinky image

Building a Custom Blinky

Blinky is the Hello World of embedded boards. This will replace your factory image with a new custom image that makes the onboard LEDs blink. Before you go any further, verify that you can restore the factory image of your board. Read the overview of creating a custom board image.

e2 Studio

Start e2 Studio.

Create a new workspace.

Go to the Workbench.

Go to the Project Explorer view.

File -> New - Synergy C Project

Specify a project name.

Configure your Synergy Project

Important: Your board must be S5D9_IOT_ENABLER. If this option does not come up, you will need to install the Board Support Package. See the previous section on Software Configuration

Select Blinky as the Project Template.

Enter the Synergy Configuration perspective and look for the BSP tab.

In the BSP tab, make sure you have the proper Board and Device.

Select Build.

The .srec file will be placed in the Debug folder.

If your board is connected to the J-Link debugger, can now press Debug and the binary will move over to your board.

You can also use a separate tool called, J-Flash Lite. To make the process easier to learn as a step by step process, I'm going to break the process into two steps, build and then flash. I'm going to show you how to use J-Flash Lite to to move the binary over. When you're actively building and debugging, you can use e2 Studio to manage the process automatically.

Using J-Flash Lite

Connect debugger board

Connect debugger board to Windows workstation with USB cable
Connect debugger board to Renesas S5D9 board with ribbon cable and JTAG connector
Connect Renesas S5D9 board to USB power source (such as your computer's USB port)
