Flash Boot Bank Select Configuration Switch (S4)

A 4-position SMT configuration switch is located on the board to control Flash Bank B Boot
block write-protect and Flash Bank A write-protect. Select the Flash Boot bank and the
programmed/safe start ENV settings.

The Bank B Boot WP switch is OFF to indicate that the Flash Bank B Boot block is write-
protected. The switch is ON to indicate no write-protection of Bank B Boot block.

The Bank A WP switch is OFF to indicate that the entire Flash Bank A is write-protected. The
switch is ON to indicate no write-protection of Bank A Boot block.

When the Boot Bank Sel Switch is ON, the board boots from Bank B, when OFF, the board boots
from Bank A. Default is ON (boot from Bank B).

When the Safe Start switch is set OFF, normal boot sequence should be followed by MOTLoad.
When ON, MOTLoad executes Safe Start, during which the user can select the Alternate Boot
