17.3.3 Transmitting Firmware Files
When a board support package (BSP) has been downloaded and unzipped, the
flash firmware file will be the one with “.BIN” as its file name extension.
Once the RFU utility has been configured, the flash firmware files can be
downloaded to the gateway by two different methods. The simplest way is to
drag the application firmware .BIN file’s icon and drop it onto the RFU utility’s
main screen. This will automatically initiate the download process.
Alternatively, select the “File…Load Flash Image” menu item (refer to Figure
42).

The flash image (.BIN file) selection window will then appear (refer to Figure
43). Browse to the location of the flash image file and select it. Clicking “OK”
will then initiate the download process.

While downloading, the RFU utility will indicate the download status. Once
complete, summary information will be displayed in the bottom status bar (see
Figure 44).
