Q 1. I would like to create a custom flash image. How does one edit the Flash_image.xml file?
A 1. View the sample flash_image.xml and follow the instructions in the sample file.
After the necessary tools and deliverables have been installed on the user’s system, do the following:
1.
Extract the sample_cirrus.zip file to “C:\CirrusDSP\DSPCondenser\projects\sample_cirrus”
folder.
2.
Verify that “C:\CirrusDSP\DSPCondenser\projects\sample_cirrus\flash_image.xml” folder
