Srec_cat - Multiple Values problem trying to insert CRC into binary file

 If you're facing issues with `srec_cat` when trying to insert CRC values into a binary file, it's important to ensure that you're using the tool correctly and that your input files and data are formatted properly. Here's a general process to insert a CRC value into a binary file using `srec_cat`: 1. **Create a File with CRC Value**: First, create a file containing the CRC value in the desired format. You can use a simple text file to store the CRC value. 2. **Generate a Checksum**: Use a tool or code to generate the CRC value for the binary data. Ensure that the CRC value is computed correctly according to the algorithm and parameters you need. 3. **Convert the Binary File to S-Record Format**: Use `srec_cat` to convert your binary file to the S-Record format. This step involves specifying input and output file names, ensuring that the binary data is properly formatted, and specifying the format for the output S-Record file.    Example:    ```sh    srec_cat input.bin -
