This advantage is also provided by an alarm host equipped with the system programming tool of the present invention.
For a better understanding of the nature and technical aspects of the present invention, reference should be made to the following detailed description of the invention, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which are provided for purposes of illustration and description and are not intended to limit the invention.
Drawings
The foregoing and other aspects of the present application will be more fully understood and appreciated by reference to the following detailed description, taken with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a prior art system programming tool.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system programming tool according to the present invention.
Detailed Description
To assist those skilled in the art in understanding the claimed subject matter, specific embodiments of the invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 2, the present invention provides a system programming tool 10 for performing firmware upgrade and configuration update on a control host (not shown), which is an alarm host in this embodiment. The system programming tool 10 includes:
a first interface 20, configured to connect to the control host; a second interface 30 for connecting to a host computer (not shown); a communication protocol module 40, configured to process communication data of the first interface 20 and the second interface 30; a multi-file storage module 50 for storing and managing a plurality of files; and a file selection module 60 for selecting a file designated among the plurality of files accessing the multi-file storage module 50.
In this embodiment, the plurality of files includes: multiple versions of firmware files and/or configuration files. These different versions of firmware and/or configuration files are numbered from 1 to N, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1. File selection module 60 may employ a dial switch or jumper to provide the user with a set of numbers that increment from 1 to N. By selecting the number, the user can make the control host access to the specified file corresponding to the number. For example, when the user selects number 1, the control host can access the firmware file or configuration file with number 1, and update or upgrade with the firmware file or configuration file.
The multi-file storage module 50 includes: a file input output unit 501, a file allocation table unit 502, and a file data block unit 503. The file input/output unit 501 includes: file reading, file writing, file deleting and file querying. The file allocation table unit 502 is configured to record location information of a file, where the location information of the file includes: one or more items of information such as file name, file size, file attribute, starting address of data blocks occupied by the file, number of data blocks occupied by the file and file number. The file data block unit 503 equally divides the physical memory into a plurality of blocks 5031, 5032 … … 503n, each block containing an occupation flag indicating whether the block is occupied by data.
