    tockst Guest
    Is it possible to launch Crystal Chip's Boot Manager from a memory card when the chip is placed in recovery mode?

    Thanks in advance.

    From the CC site:
    Recovery Mode

    The CC1.0/CC1.1 has a built-in Recovery Mode which may be enabled at any time to allow you to recover from corrupted firmware. Thanks to an internal checksum, CC will automatically detect corrupted firmware and boot in Recovery Mode. In the event that CC fails to automatically detect corrupted firmware, you may force "Recovery Mode" by pressing reset 3 times on startup.
    So why do you want to boot in recovery mode? (doesn't seem to make much sense)
    It's only usefull when your firmware is corrupted, and if that's the case then simply upgrade your chip with a working one.
    I don't think you can use BM in rec. mode, because the chip doesn't have the latest firmware improvements in that mode. But I can't say for sure.
