can't run Xconfigutor

Post by dutcher »

Hi everyone,
Thanks for reading my post.
Can someone explain how to run Xconfigurator.
I know there are more forums about this subject. But I can't still figure it out.
I found this forum about it (http://www.xcore.com/viewtopic.php?t=4815)
The steps he explained in the end didn't work for me. I got a error when I but the code in the Command Prompt.
I hope someone can help me out.

kind regards,

Hi dutcher, can you give some more details about the operating system you are using, the exact command you run and the error you get. It is quite hard to try to guess what might be going wrong without that information.

I have download Xconfigurator.
I get a map. I open xCORE-AUDIO-configuration-utility.1.0.0 --> xConfigurator_1_0_0 -->bin --> Win32 (I have windows 10 don't know if this matters) than I get a application called xConfigurator. When I want to open this I get this (see picture).

You need to run the configurator from the command prompt - it is a command-line tool. You can launch the command-prompt with WINDOWS+R and then typing cmd.

On the command prompt you run need to change to the folder that contains xConfigurator (copy the path from the Explorer bar):

Code: Select all

xConfigurator -c hi_res_2_dac_hpa.cfg -o custom_xhra_firmware.bin
Hope that helps.

It doesn't look like you have changed to the folder that contains the xConfigurator binary.

I can't find the xConfiguator binary file. There are 4 different files but this is the only one I can open

The binary is the one you double-clicked on: xCORE-AUDIO-configuration-utility.1.0.0 --> xConfigurator_1_0_0 -->bin --> Win32

So you need to change to that folder on the command-line and run from there.

thanks for your reply,
I followed the steps descriped in this forum: (http://www.xcore.com/viewtopic.php?t=4815#top),
And I finally got it. Now I have the bin file created in downloads. called: custom_xhra_firm ware.bin
But I till can't open the program xConfigurator.
What do I need to do next to open xConfigurater and be able to burn the configuration file in to the chip with a spi flash programmer?
