In this Computex 2009, AMI have demonstrated one "AMI Debug RX" debugging solution for computing equipments which could not have used conventional debug card, such as an UMPC. The solution includes an USB debugging device which can be connected to computing devices with AMI BIOS. Once connected, the debugging device can display a series of debug codes which reflects the current states of the hardware being connected.
Debug RX contains two micro USB ports, one for connecting to the hardware that's being debugged, and the other one for connecting to a PC which have the Debug RX software installed. The software allows engineers to perform remote repair/debug functions such as upgrading BIOS. Furthermore, Debug RX device contains flash memory and SD slot which allow engineers to store BIOS dump in Debug RX or upgrade BIOS through firmware stored on Debug RX. A lower-end model may be available in the future for DIY enthusiast and alike.
