4 Initial Steps

The following instructions will take you through the software installation and back up procedures for your Casira

units. Your first action should be to back up the firmware. Follow the back-up instructions in section 4.5, Back Up

New Casira Units. Each Casira module has settings that are unique to that module, such as its Bluetooth Device

Address and Crystal Trim Value. This data is stored in the Persistent Store as PS Keys. The Persistent Store

also contains values that are specific to a particular design, e.g., whether it uses the Universal Asynchronous

Receiver Transmitter (UART) in H4 or BlueCore Serial Protocol (BCSP) mode.

4.1 Register Online

most important resources for development. The site includes the latest application notes, datasheets, RF

4.2 Installing BlueSuite

Run the installer supplied on the accompanying CD ROM.

4.3 Installing BlueSuite CE Software

This installation contains Windows CE versions of the PC software. To install the CE versions follow these

instructions:

1. Identify the target platform.

CE devices run one of the following versions of Windows CE:

Pocket PC (Palm-sized device, small portrait screen, no keyboard)

HPC Pro 2.11 (Older small notebook-sized PC with keyboard and glide pad)

HPC 2000 (Palmtop device with touch screen and keyboard)

Palm-sized PC 2.11. (Older palmtop-sized PC with keyboard and touch-screen)

The CE version defines the screen size and user-input type for the device (e.g., touch-screen or glide

pad, keyboard present, handwriting recognition present, etc.). Identify your CE version from the above

list.

2. Identify the processor to be used:

On your Windows CE device, identify the processor used in the device. On most platforms, this is found

in Control Panel / System / Device tab. On Pocket PC platforms, select Settings / System / About / Version.

3. Copy the CE Version of Software to the Device.

The Casira CD ROM contains versions of BlueSuite software for various popular Windows CE devices,

all as .CAB files. These files are supplied on the CD ROM.

Select the version for your device from the .CAB files available. If an appropriate version is not available,

contact your distributor, or CSR.

Right-click on the .CAB file and select Copy.

If you have not already done so, establish an ActiveSync connection to your CE device. The device

should now appear as a directory in Windows Explorer. There is more information about ActiveSync at

the end of this installation instruction.

Copy the correct .CAB file to the device by locating the ‘My Documents’ folder on the device. Right-click

and select Paste.

_äìÉ`çêÉ™Casira User Guide

4. Install BlueSuite on the device.

Install BlueSuite CE by running the .CAB file on your CE device from the directory to which you saved it.

You may need to use the CE File Explorer to navigate to the .CAB file.

4.3.1 ActiveSync 3.7.1

Microsoft ActiveSync®3.7.1 is the latest and significantly improved synchronisation software for Microsoft

Windows Powered Pocket PCs. ActiveSync 3.7.1 is easy to install and use and offers the best levels of reliability

to date. ActiveSync 3.7.1 also brings you up to date with compatibility to Microsoft Office XP and Windows XP. If

you do not have this on your computer go to: www.microsoft.com/mobile/pocketpc/downloads/activesync37.asp.

4.4 Installing USB Drivers

There are two sets of device drivers for BlueCore (CSR and WIDCOMM™). Each set contains drivers for

BlueCore to use in normal operation and in DFU mode. The CSR DFU driver offers better reliability and

performance. Use the CSR DFU Wizard if you use the CSR DFU driver. WIDCOMM Bluetooth for Windows

(BTW) software works only with the WIDCOMM driver.

CSR’s BlueSuite software was tested using both sets of drivers.

If you installed previous versions of BlueSuite and CSR USB drivers, note that they will not work with the

WIDCOMM BTW software. The CD ROM provided with your Casira Development Kit will allow you to remove the

old USB drivers and install the new version, which co-exists with both software programs.

4.4.1 Selecting the Driver

If you plan to use only the BlueSuite software to develop your Bluetooth application(s), CSR recommends that

you use the CSR drivers referenced in csrbc01.inf.

If you plan to use both CSR and WIDCOMM software, CSR recommends that you use the drivers referenced in

btwusb_csr_dfu.inf. This file uses the WIDCOMM driver for normal USB operation, but it uses the CSR driver for

DFU operation. Use the CSR DFU Wizard to perform DFU operations over USB as this offers best performance

and reliability.

If you plan to use mainly WIDCOMM software, CSR recommends that you use the WIDCOMM drivers, as

referenced in btwusb.inf.

4.4.2 Changing the Driver

1. Unplug the USB device.

2. Run

install.exe from the CD ROM. Select Purge system of USB drivers for CSR chips. Clear all other

options. Click Install to run the option.

3. Insert the device. When prompted, select the appropriate driver (refer to section 4.4.1, Selecting the

Driver).

4.5 Back Up New Casira Units

The following steps take you through the process of backing up your Casira firmware. Back up the firmware as

your first action with a new Casira. Making a back-up when you upgrade firmware allows you to return to a known

state in the event you incur problems as a result of the upgrade. You can back up the firmware at any time.

To backup Casira firmware:

1. Open the Casira unit. Access to the SPI header is required. Open the Casira case by unscrewing all

three screws located on the underside. Remove the case top.

2. Check the module serial number. The heart of a Casira kit is the radio module, held in place by the blue

clip in the centre of the motherboard. The motherboard itself provides a stable environment for the radio

module as well as easy access to all the important signals.

Each radio module has a unique serial number (this is not the same as the motherboard serial number).

Before proceeding, check the module serial number. Slide the clip up toward the connectors on the top

edge of the motherboard. The module will pop up. Remove the module and look on the underside for

the serial number (in the format S/Nxxxxx). Note the serial number.

To replace the module, fit the top edge of the module into the blue clip. Press down gently until the

module is correctly in place. Slide the clip down to lock it in place.

3. Connect the SPI cable. Take one of the SPI cables and connect it to the CN16 header on the Casira

motherboard. Take the other end of the SPI cable and connect it to the LPT port on your PC.

Note:

Ensure that the LPT port is in Normal mode and not in ECP/EPP mode. This can be configured with

the Device Manager under the System utility in the Windows Control Panel. For some PCs, it may

be necessary to change the BIOS settings. If you have any doubts about changing the port’s mode

and the effect it may have on any other interfacing devices, contact your Information Systems

department for advice.

4. Power up. Using the appropriate country specific AC adaptor, connect the power supply unit to the

mains supply. Plug the power supply unit output into the Casira power input.

5. Run BlueFlash. Start the BlueFlash application (installed as part of BlueSuite on the accompanying

CD ROM).

6. Select the LPT port. In the top drop down menu, select the LPT port to which the SPI cable is

connected. LPT1 is the default.

7. Check the connection. The BlueFlash window displays the status of the processor. The status of the

chip should state that it is idle. The button Stop Processor should not be greyed out.

A connection to BlueCore has not been established if BlueFlash is still trying to identify the flash

memory. The message “Identifying Flash….” will indicate this state. The flash identification process

should take two to three seconds.

If the flash is not identified, ensure that the LPT port is in Normal mode in the Windows Device Manager.

If the flash is still not identified, try to remove jumper CN18 on the Casira motherboard (near the SPI

connector). Due to different configurations of the LPT port on some PCs (particularly laptops), the

Casira’s reset circuit may be being asserted by a connection in the SPI cable to the PC LPT port. This

causes Casira to reset itself continuously. Removing jumper CN18 disconnects the reset pin on the SPI

cable from the Casira reset circuit. Reset the Casira, close BlueFlash and repeat Steps 4-7.

8. Stop the BlueCore Processor. Click Stop Processor. If you successfully connected to the module, the

BlueFlash window indicates recognition of the flash memory type and displays device information in the

top status bar as Figure 4.1 indicates.

9. Verify that the processor has stopped. When the processor has stopped, the Stop Processor button

changes to Start Processor. You can now upload or download the BlueCore firmware.

10. Click on

Dump. To upload the entire Casira flash memory contents to a PC file, click on Dump.

11. Select a filename. A Save as window displays. Select a safe location and create a folder where the

backup will be stored. The firmware dump contains calibration information for the module including host

interface settings. CSR recommends that you use a descriptive filename that includes the module serial

number, your name or company and the Casira setup to make identification easy. For example:

“SN10337 – John Doe – Factory Settings”

Initial Steps

_äìÉ`çêÉ™Casira User Guide

12. Save the file. Click Save. BlueFlash saves the backup into the specified location. The status bar

indicates the upload status during the backup. Do not interrupt this process as doing so may corrupt the

data.

13. Wait for the upload to complete. The backup is complete when the file name displays complete. Two

files will be created: one with .xpv extension, the other with .xdv extension. Both files are required to

restore the firmware (.xpv contains the firmware program space; .xdv contains the data space).

14. Repeat steps if required. Repeat Steps 1-13 of this section for additional Casira units.

15. If your Casira fails to operate properly due to erroneous PS Key modifications or failed firmware

updates, perform a recovery to restore the original firmware and settings with which the Casira was

shipped.
