3.13. CF Boot Mode
Function overview
In this mode, the file system is loaded, not from the internal flash ROM, but the CF
card.
By placing the binary, which should be in the internal flash ROM, to the CF card, an
entirely different system can be launched. An environment that executes
auto-processing against the local console or target port is provided.
By executing a perl script, data on each target port can be checked and reported to
the local console, or devices connected to the target ports can be auto-controlled.
Selecting boot media
Whether to use CF boot or normal boot is determined by the DIP switch on the front
of the product.
To use CF boot, turn DIP switch 2 on, insert a bootable CF (FFS format) into the CF
slot, and then turn the product on.
