Hi, I work on a project where a Software loading is needed for the Nios. The RedBoot was considered, but the host computer (which delivers the above software to be loaded on the Nios) is not a P...

Honored ContributorHi again,
First of all, thank you very much for refering to my question. A new concept is being considered now - the big picture is that we are talking about a complicated system, which contains several processors on different boards, communicating solely through a serial RS232 UART. So what we have now, is a Host-PC at one end, several intermediating Uarts in the middle and a Nios II at the other far end. Theoretically, RedBoot can now play a role again, but maybe the timeouts for the incoming-outgoing messages between the host and the Nios should be changed, or maybe another issues which I am not aware of should be reconsidered... Can you think about a solution here? What must be considered? Thank you again, Ofer
