Thanks, I'll have a look.

I have installed Flash Magic 4.62.1584 and the command line interface seems to work OK.
I have used the following command:
fm @readflash.txt
where readflash is:
COM(3, 38400)
DEVICE(LPC2367, 4.000000)
HARDWARE(BOOTEXEC, 50, 100)
READ(0x0000,0x3FFFF,TEST.HEX)

The only problem is that the resultant hex file is in a different format from the original:
Start of original file:
:020000040000FA
:1000000018F09FE518F09FE518F09FE518F09FE5C0
:1000100018F09FE5586FA0B818F09FE518F09FE51D

Start of retrieved file:
:020000040000FA
:4000000018F09FE518F09FE518F09FE518F09FE518F09FE5586FA0B818F09FE518F09FE540000000F03C0100343D0100843D0100CC3D0100000000001C3E0100A4BD010065

Can the format be changed?

I am using a USB-to-serial adapter for my comms.
However I have tried another PC direct to COM1 and still get the same results.

I am using version 4.31.1368

I have done as you suggest and get a directives.txt as follows:
COM(3, 38400)
DEVICE(LPC2367, 4.000000)
HARDWARE(BOOTEXEC, 50, 100)
ERASE(DEVICE, PROTECTISP)
HEXFILE(C:\Program Files\Flash Magic\check.hex, NOCHECKSUMS, NOFILL, PROTECTISP)
VERIFY(C:\Program Files\Flash Magic\check.hex, NOCHECKSUMS)

When I run the command "fm @directives.txt" I get the message "Connection failed: invalid command"

Thanks for your prompt response Andy.

I have tried the following command:
"fm com(3,38400) read(0x0000,0x3ffff,test.hex)"
and get one of the following two responses:
"Connection failed: COM port error " or
"Connection failed: unable to connect (no response from device)"

I have also tried:
"fm com(3,38400) hexfile(check.hex,NOCHECKSUMS,NOFILL,NOPROTECTISP)"
with the same result

Please note that the Windows version works fine, so I assume that the COM port is OK.

I want to use the command line facility to read the contents of flash into a file.
First I need to configure the communications and I have tried using "fm COM(3, 38400)".
I get no response from this command, but the manual says I should get either:
"Connected" or
"Connection failed: <reason>"
I have tried other port and baud rate settings, but nothing works.

Please help
