Qualcomm Robotics RB5- Setting up board in EDL Mode
Qualcomm Robotics RB5 RidgeRun documentation is currently under development. |
Connecting the board in USB flashing mode (aka EDL mode)
In this section we will explain the steps on how to setup the board in the EDL Mode[1]. EDL Mode is used for recovering/flashing the board over USB.
1. Power off the board and unplug the USB type-C cable.
2. Set the switch DIP_SW_0 to “0 1 1 0 0 0”, please check figure 1 and 2. This configuration means that the board debug UART is enabled and that the board will power on automatically when main power is asserted.

4. While pressing the F_DL button, power on the device with the proper power supply. Do NOT stop pressing the button.
5. While pressing the F_DL button, plug in the USB type-C cable between the board and the host computer. Stop pressing the F_DL button.
6. To check if everything went well, you can check the USB connections with dmesg.
dmesg | grep usb
It will show something like:
