Programing AmiLoop with Raspberry Pi

Install OpenOCD

Install the tools we need to get and compile OpenOCD:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install automake autoconf build-essential texinfo libtool libftdi-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev

Download the latest source code for OpenOCD with:

git clone http://openocd.zylin.com/openocd

Configure for the Pi and it's gpio:

cd openocd
./bootstrap
./configure --enable-sysfsgpio --enable-bcm2835gpio

Make and install:

make
sudo make install

Make the following connections between the AmiLoop and the Pi

AmiLoop	↔	Raspberry Pi	Pin #
`Vin`	↔	`3.3v`	`1`
`GND`	↔	`GND`	`20`
`IO`	↔	`GPIO 8`	`24`
`CLK`	↔	`GPIO 11`	`23`

The end result should look like this (ignore brown wire in picture):

From the root of this repository run the following command:

openocd -f amiloopv4.cfg

To flash the older v3 firmware instead, use this command:

openocd -f amiloopv3.cfg

To flash a different hex file, make a copy of one of the cfg files and modify the file name on line 11
