1.6.2. Preloader

The Preloader is a boot-strap program that configures some components of the board including the memory controller during start up. It normally runs automatically if it were burned into one of the Flash devices on the board.

For testing purposes or before the Preloader has been burned into Flash, the Preloader can be run by downloading and executing it from the DS-5.
