• Flash Eeprom | USB Setup | BiDi RailCom | multiMAUS

Flash firmware running Ubuntu.

• avr-gcc
• avr-libc
• avrdude

• Unpack the OpenDCC sources with unzip¹
• Change in Makefile avr-gcc.exe in avr-gcc
• Change line 100 in @avr-size ${TARGET}

¹) Zip password must be requested by email, see footnote at bottom of http://opendcc.de/elektronik/opendcc/download.html

• Set the wanted parser in the config.h

#define PARSER  INTELLIBOX  // LENZ: behave like a LI101
                            // INTELLIBOX: behave like a IBOX

cd default
make

Before switching on OpenDCC press the STOP button and keep pressed. Instead of the normal mode of operation now a boot loader is started (recognizably by the continuousbright CTRL LED), which waits now for a new software from the PC. This software will be loaded to the internal non volatile memory of OpenDCC.
