Product ID configuration method and program loading method of embedded equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a product ID configuration method and a program loading method of corresponding embedded equipment. The product ID configuration method is suitable for product ID configuration of the embedded equipment and includes steps: (i), connecting a system startup disk to the embedded equipment, wherein a system mirror image file and a product configuration file are stored in the system startup disk; (ii), powering on the embedded equipment, and after the system startup disk is started, utilizing a guiding program to at least copy the system mirror image file in the system startup disc into a local storer of the embedded equipment; (iii), after the local storer is restarted, utilizing a started driving program to automatically read product ID in the product configuration file and writing the product ID into a system registration list by the embedded equipment. Therefore, system development complexity of the embedded equipment like LED asynchronous control cards can be lowered, and product hardware cost can be lowered and / or product stability can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of product ID information configuration, in particular to a product ID configuration method and a program loading method of an embedded device. Background technique [0002] Currently, in the LED asynchronous control system industry, there are product ID (unique identification of product hardware in industrial design) configuration management methods and system version information configuration management methods similar to other electronic products; Stored in the local SPIFlash (that is, the SPI interface flash memory) and then read the corresponding information from the SPI Flash after the system starts, or directly compile the system configuration information and product ID into the system's kernel registry when the product is produced item. [0003] Among them, the method of using local SPI Flash to store and solidify the product ID will undoubtedly increase the hardware cost; and the method of compilin...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Among them, the method of using local SPI Flash to store and solidify the product ID will undoubtedly increase the hardware cost; and the method of compiling the product ID into the kernel registry entry of the system is mainly based on the different environment variables set by the operating system before system compilation. The product ID is compiled and marked, but when different products are developed simultaneously under the same development environment, there will be different system compilation projects due to different environment variables, which will lead to the development of cross-compiled BSP (Board Support Package, board-level support package). It will bring problems such as increased development and compilation time, increased development complexity, and increased risk of product cross-compilation
