Maple Mini uploader v0.1

I found my small project – actually one bash script. You can use it for uploading your *.bin file (from your IDE) to Maple Mini.

Instructions:

Install dfu-util from http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/

v0.8. I didn’t try latest version

(http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/)

I tried Maple Mini in Perpetual Bootloader Mode (http://docs.leaflabs.com/docs.leaflabs.com/index.html)

– Plug your board into the USB port.

– Hit the reset button (it?s the button labeled RESET). Notice that your board blinks quickly 6 times, then blinks slowly a few more times.

– Hit reset again, and this time push and hold the other button during the 6 fast blinks (the normal button is labeled BUT). You can release it once the slow blinks start.

Copy *.bin file from your IDE (for the same microcontroller like in Maple Mini) into this direction and run executable maple_mini_uploader file. Only one *.bin file can be in this direction!

Command:

sudo bash ./maple_mini_uploader
