M172P All-In-One USB Stick

[Yan_St-a]

Greetings!

It is useful to clarify one moment in creating "all-in-one" USB programming stick for M172P.
Is there any parity in uploading files if I put both firmware and program files in same USB?

There are 2 expected behaviors (described in short):

1. (most likely) 2 cycles : Insert USB - upload firmware - reinsert USB - upload prog - BINGO!
2. (best for use) 1 cycle: insert USB - upload firmware - upload prog - remove usb - BINGO!
3. (unexpected) I have to use 2 different USB's.

Thanks.

Hi,

for M172 we are in the case 3, M172 searches first for a bios so this has the priority (and after fw update M172 reboot so it will find again a bios update...).

for the coming soon M173O we will be in case 2.
