| -2- Selecting between USB and UART interface |
| 6 | +The project build is based on Makefile system. |
| 7 | +Makefile is present at project root and try to handle multi-platform cases. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Multi-plaform GCC is provided by ARM here: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/+download |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +### Windows |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Native command line: |
| 14 | +Make binary can be obtained here: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +* Cygwin/MSys/MSys2/Babun/etc...: |
| 17 | +It is available natively in all distributions. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +* Atmel Studio: |
| 20 | +An Atmel Studio Makefile-based project is present at project root, just open samd21_sam_ba.atsln file. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### Linux |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +Make is usually available by default. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +### OS X |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +Make is available through XCode package. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +## 2- Selecting available SAM-BA interfaces |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +By default both USB and UART are made available, but this parameter can be modified in sam_ba_monitor.h, line 31: |
6 | 34 |
|
7 | 35 | Set the define SAM_BA_INTERFACE to
|
8 |
| -SAM_BA_UART_ONLY for only UART interface |
9 |
| -SAM_BA_USBCDC_ONLY for only USB CDC interface |
10 |
| -SAM_BA_BOTH_INTERFACES for enabling both the interfaces |
| 36 | +* SAM_BA_UART_ONLY for only UART interface |
| 37 | +* SAM_BA_USBCDC_ONLY for only USB CDC interface |
| 38 | +* SAM_BA_BOTH_INTERFACES for enabling both the interfaces |
11 | 39 |
|
12 |
| -SAM_BA_INTERFACE value should be modified in |
13 |
| -Project Options -> C/C++ Compiler -> Preprocessor -> Defined symbols |
14 |
| -Project Options -> Assembler -> Preprocessor -> Defined symbols |

| -3- Start application check |
| 41 | +## 3- Behaviour |
17 | 42 |
|
18 |
| -Bootloader checks for the state of BOOT_LOAD_PIN (configurable by the user from main.h). If BOOT_LOAD_PIN is pulled low, bootloader execution is resumed. |
19 |
| -Else, the first location of application is fetched and checked. If it is empty (0xFFFFFFFF), then bootloader execution is resumed. Else it jumps to application and starts execution from there. |
| 43 | +This bootloader implements the double-tap on Reset button. |
| 44 | +By quickly pressing this button two times, the board will reset and stay in bootloader, waiting for communication on either USB or USART. |
20 | 45 |
|
21 |
| -Currently, BOOT_LOAD_PIN is PA15 of SAMD21G18A, pin 5 of Arduino Zero board. |
| 46 | +The USB port in use is the USB Native port, close to the Reset button. |
| 47 | +The USART in use is the one available on pins D0/D1, labelled respectively RX/TX. |
