DescriptionA tag list is a list of structured configuration parameters which has been compiled into an executable file for the netX chip in NXO or NXF format. Support for NXI files for netX 90 and netX 4000 is added starting with version 1.4.0.0. It contains parameters to configure the firmware. The information contained in the tag list (e.g. the location of the file system) must be available before any configuration files are accessed. The Tag List Editor provides a graphical user interface which allows the manipulation of tag lists and firmware files containing a tag list, which includes NXF and NXO files as well as the 2nd Stage Loader (BSL), which is in NXF format starting from version 1.3. Note, that the Tag List Editor is a tool for experts. Misusing this tool can have serious consequences for your device and/or the network in which the device is used. The Tag List Editor allows you to: • edit the tag list • edit the device header • construct an NXO file from its basic components. If you are an OEM who uses a Hilscher netX chip, you can thus use the Tag List Editor to change certain parameters contained in the loadable standard firmware for the netX provided by Hilscher, in order to make it operable with your own hardware setup and in order to let you use your own customized product identification on the network bus. For more information on adapting loadable standard firmware, see section Customizing Hilscher Standard Firmware for OEM Devices on page 20. Also included in the Tag List Editor are two command line tools: • makenxo combines a header binary, ELF file and tag list to an NXO file. • tagtool allows you to print, compare, replace and manipulate tag lists and to print, compare and manipulate device headers of NXF, NXO and BSL files. |
