FRDM-K64F

Click to show/hide

Flashing this board requires pyOCD. To install this dependency, run:

pip3 install --user pyOCD

On Linux platforms, you also need to install the following udev rules as root, then unplug and plug back in any boards you may have connected:

echo 'ATTR{idProduct}=="0204", ATTR{idVendor}=="0d28", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"' > /etc/udev/rules.d/50-cmsis-dap.rules

Building for FRDM-K64F requires some configuration information which depends on your local network:

  • An IP address to use for the IoT gateway
  • Whether the board should use DHCP, or a static IP address

This information must be written to the file zmp-samples/dm-lwm2m/boards/frdm_k64f-local.conf in the Zephyr microPlatform installation directory.

To use DHCP, with gateway IP address A.B.C.D, create the file with the following contents.

CONFIG_NET_DHCPV4=y
CONFIG_NET_APP_PEER_IPV4_ADDR="A.B.C.D"

To use a static IP address X.Y.Z.W for the FRDM-K64F instead, use this.

CONFIG_NET_APP_MY_IPV4_ADDR="X.Y.Z.W"
CONFIG_NET_APP_PEER_IPV4_ADDR="A.B.C.D"

In addition, zmp-samples/dm-lwm2m/boards/frdm_k64f-local.conf must contain a line which specifies the IP address of the COAP proxy. In this case, that’s just the IP address of your gateway device. To use IP address L.M.N.O, add a line like this after the other networking configuration:

CONFIG_LWM2M_FIRMWARE_UPDATE_PULL_COAP_PROXY_ADDR="L.M.N.O"

To build and flash:

west build -s zmp-samples/dm-lwm2m -d build-dm-lwm2m -b frdm_k64f
west sign -t imgtool -d build-dm-lwm2m -- --key mcuboot/root-rsa-2048.pem
west flash -d build-dm-lwm2m --hex-file zephyr.signed.hex
