Pack Tool

RTL87x2G and RTL8762D

RTL87x2G is the abbreviation of a series IC type.

The packaging process for the RTL87x2G and RTL8762D is the same. Take RTL8762G as an example as follows.

Before starting, select the appropriate demo under the sdk directory ( \subsys\gui\realgui\example\screen_800_480\root_image_800_480 ), or create a new packaging directory based on the example. Then copy the .bat and .py scripts to that directory. Ensure that the root folder, as well as the .bat and .py scripts, are all located in this directory.

The user data generation process is as follows:

RTL8762G Generate User Data

1. Copy all generated .bin files to the folder \src\app\dashboard\application\root_image\root.

2. In the directory \src\app\dashboard\application\root_image, double-click the script file mkromfs_0xa00000.bat to execute it. This will generate an image of the root folder. After execution, a new .bin file and a .h file will appear in this directory.

3. The .h file contains the address offset of each file in the file system, allowing direct access without using the file system. Before developing the GUI code, add the folder containing the .h file to the include directory.

4. The .bin file is the image file of the root folder. Use the MPTool tool to burn the root_xx.bin file into the Flash storage.

RTL8763E and RTL8773DO

RTL8763E is the name of a series IC type, including RTL8763EWE-VP/RTL8763EW-VC. The packaging process for RTL8773DO is similar to that of RTL8763E.

Before starting, navigate to the SDK directory ( \tool\Gadgets\gui_package_tool ) and choose the appropriate IC directory. Select the 8763E directory for RTL8763EW and the 87x3D directory for RTL8773DO.

The process for generating user data is as follows:

RTL8763E Generate User Data

1. Copy all the generated .bin files to the folder \tool\Gadgets\gui_package_tool\8763E\root.

2. Double-click gen_root_image.bat in the \tool\Gadgets\gui_package_tool\8763E directory to execute the script and generate an image of the root folder. A new .bin file and .h file will appear in the directory.

3. The .h file contains the address offset of each file in the file system, allowing direct access without using the file system. Before developing the GUI code, add the folder containing the .h file to the include directory.

4. The .bin file is the image file of the root folder. Use the MPTool tool to burn the root_xx.bin file into the Flash storage.

RTL8773E

RTL8773E is the name of a series IC type, including RTL8773EWE/RTL8773EWE-VP. The user data packaging process is as follows:

Generate Root Bin

1. Copy generated images .bin to this folder \src\app\watch\gui_application\root_image\root\8773e_watch and Copy generated font .bin to this folder \src\app\watch\gui_application\root_image\root\font.

2. Modify build address: You need to adjust the address to 0x238b400 by modifying this file mkromfs_0x4400000.bat ( python_bin_mkromfs_0x4400000.py --binary --addr 0x238b400 root root(0x4400000).bin). The --addr corresponds to the flash map userdata address +0x400 (image header size).

3. Double-click mkromfs_0x4400000.bat in the \src\app\watch\gui_application\root_image directory to execute the script and generate an image of the root folder. A new bin root(0x4400000).bin file and h file ui_resource.h will appear in the directory.

4. Between them, .bin is the image file of the root folder, and .h is the address offset of each file in the file system, which can be accessed directly without using the file system.

RTL8773E Generate User Data

Note

The generated ui_resource.h requires the following code to be added manually.

#if defined _WIN32
#else
#include "flash_map.h"

#define   MUSIC_NAME_BIN_ADDR       APP_DEFINED_SECTION_ADDR
#define   MUSIC_HEADER_BIN_ADDR     (MUSIC_NAME_BIN_ADDR + 0xA000)
#define   MUSIC_NAME_BIN_SIZE       (MUSIC_HEADER_BIN_ADDR - MUSIC_NAME_BIN_ADDR)
#define   MUSIC_HEADER_BIN_SIZE     0x5000
#endif

Adding Header Information

Using the MPPG Tool to add header information to user data files, the process is as follows:

MPPG Tool Add Header Information

1. In the menu, select Tool‣Prepend header for user data.

2. Add the path to flash_map.ini.

3. Add the path to the user data file (root_xx.bin).

4. Generate the burnable user data file.

Note

The Max size must be larger than the Actual size; otherwise, the user data size in the flash_map needs to be changed.
