RS-232 Operation and Console Commands
The HDMV may also be controlled via RS-232 commands; this feature requires an RS-232 card
installed on your computer or a USB to RS-232 adapter. First connect the RS-232 cable between
your PC and the HDMV.
Next connect to the device using HyperTerminal or a similar serial
data application and an DB9 for RS-232 connection. The settings for
the connection are shown in the picture on the right.
Any serial data application similar to HyperTerminal will be able to
connect to the HDMV provided the Bits per second are 115200, the
data bits are set to 8, the Parity is “None,” the stop bits are “1,” and
there is no ow control. HyperTerminal comes standard on windows
XP and can be enabled on Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows

Programming the EDID
The EDID (Extended Display Identication Data) of your monitor or display can be programmed
into the HDMV. This will allow the HDMV to pass essential display information between the display
and the attached sources. Information pertaining to color depth, resolution, and sound must be
properly congured in order for the optimum viewing .
To program the EDID rst disconnect any inputs to the HDMV and plug a monitor in to the output.
Next power the device on.
Plug an RS-232 cable or USB to RS-232 adapter into the HDMV and your computer.
Any serial data application similar to
HyperTerminal will be able to connect to
the HDMV provided the Bits per second are
115200, the data bits are set to 8, the Parity
is “None,” the stop bits are “1,” and there is no
ow control. HyperTerminal comes standard
on windows XP and can be enabled on
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows
8. There are many applications available for
Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems.
1. Connect a monitor to the output port of the HDMV.
2. Connect to the HDMV using RS-232 (use PuTTY or HyperTerminal).
3. Type in “debuguon” followed by <ENTER> to go to Debug Mode. You will not see any
feedback until you press the <ENTER> button.
4. If this has been done properly, you should see the message “CLI Menu Enabled” on the
terminal client.
5. Enter “?” to see the rest of the options.
6. To learn screen, enter the following command:
wEDID a 3
7. Wait for all the debug messages to stop.
8. Once done, the EDID is learned and your sources should be able read the EDID of your
monitor.
*Note: other debugging options such as enabling and disabling hotplug, changing output
mode, and resetting the unit can be accessed through the CLI Menu.

How to Upgrade the Video Firmware
Download the latest rmware upgrade from the SmartAVI website.
Open either Chip45Boot2 or a serial data application such as HyperTerminal. Chip45Boot2 may be
downloaded from the Chip45 website. HyperTerminal, Putty, TeraTerm are widely distributed and
free to use.
Using Chip45Boot2 GUI
Using HyperTerminal
1) Connect an RS-232 cable or USB to
RS-232 adapter from your computer to
the HDMV.
2) Open Chip45Boot2 GUI and select the
appropriate com port.
3) Select a baud rate of 115200 (if
connection fails select a lower
baud rate)
4) Press “Select Flash Hexle” and locate
the rmware upgrade. (Don’t forget to
download the upgrade rst.)
5) With the power to the HDMV o, press
“Connect to Bootloader” then turn the
power to the HDMV on.
6) Once connected click on “Program Flash”
7) When nished click “Disconnect from
bootloader” and power cycle the
HDMV.
Occasionally Chip45 may give an error
“Unable to connect, with a red status ag.”
Clicking “connect” just after seeing this
message will sometimes connect. Also
consider lowering the baud rate.
12
With a Terminal Program:
1) Set PC serial port to 19200 baud, 8N1, XON
XOFF (we suggest to start with 19200 baud,
even though higher baud rates are possible,
depending of target MCU clock.) Set the
line endings on your terminal program to
‘CR+LF’ for outgoing messages, this means
to “send line ends with line feeds.”
Emulation should be set to “VT100.”
2) Hold shift-U keys pressed while powering
on or resetting your target
3) See the welcome message “c45b2” plus
version number plus prompt on the next
line now the boot loader is ready to accept
the rmware.
4) Type “pf” to load the rmware. An echo of
“pf+” will return.
5) Send text le, go to desktop and “show all”
and select the hex le. (Send it as a text le
although it is a hex le.)
