The LLC user-space tool, plugins and library will be installed to the
./bin subdirectory and the cw-llc
driver will be copied to the
./drivers/<kernel_version> subdirectory.
Connect the EVK-VERA-P174 evaluation kit to the PC and connect the USB device to the virtual
machine, if required. The VERA-P1 module enumerates itself on the USB as “NXP SAF510x DFU”
device with the USB device ID 1fc9:0102, which can be checked using the
lsusb command:
$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1fc9:0102 NXP Semiconductors
Run the
load script to detect the VERA-P1 module and download the radio firmware through USB via
the Device Firmware Update (DFU) protocol, if required. If prompted for a firmware, select option 2 to
download the SDRMK5Dual.bin for evaluation of VERA-P174 or option 4 to select SDRMK5Single.bin
for evaluation of VERA-P173.
$ ./load
Load SAF5X00 firmware via DFU-util
** NOTE: dfu-util may fail under VMWare; you may need to unplug your board after
download and restart ./load **

In case of a virtual machine environment, repeat to run the
load script until the cw-llc driver module is
loaded. As the USB device changes roles after firmware download, ensure that the new 802.11p radio
device with the USB device ID 1fc9:0103 is automatically connected to the virtual machine.
Once the device is properly detected, the
load script will display an output as shown below:
$ ./load
