DESCRIPTION
       astribank_hexload is a second-stage firmware loader for Xorcom Astribanks. Note that some older models use fpga_load(8) instead.

       It  is  used  to  load  a  file	in  the  Intel HEX format into a Xorcom Astribank. It can be used to load either an FPGA firmware or a PIC
       firmware. It is normally run by the script xpp_fxloader.

OPTIONS
       -D device-path
	      Required. The device to read from/write to. This is bus_num/device_num, where bus_num and device_num are the first  two  numbers	in
	      the output of lsusb(8) or dahdi_hardware(8).  On older versions of this toolyou needed a complete path to the device, which would be
	      /dev/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num, or /proc/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num.

       One of the following is required:

       -F
	      The firmware to load is a FPGA firmware.

       -p
	      The firmwares to load is are PIC firmwares. All (typically 4) should be on the command-line.

       -O
	      The firmware to load is an Octasic echo canceller firmware image file.

       -o
	      Don't load firmware. Just print the version number of the currently-loaded Octasic echo canceller firmware.

       -E
	      The firmware to load is a special EEPROM burning one.

       Other options:

       -v
	      Increase verbosity. May be used multiple times.

       -d mask
	      Set debug mask to mask. Default is 0, 0xFF is "everything".

       -h
	      Displays usage message.

       -A
	      When loading a Octasic echo canceller firmware, set the channels of the first Astribank module to use aLaw (G.711a).  This  is  what
	      you'd normally use for BRI and E1. If not set, the default mu-Law (G.711u), which is what you'd normally use for FXS, FXO and T1.
