To flash the image to EMMC:

1 Download the latest UUU tools from NXP (included in mfgTools)

2 Copy the image files from your Yocto build's tmp/deploy/images/sm3s-imx8mp directory to the UUU directory 
 
 imx-boot-sm2s-imx8mp-sd.bin-flash_evk 
 avnet-image-weston-sm2s-imx8mp.wic.zst or avnet-image-weston-sm2s-imx8mp.wic

3 Adjust the 4-pole dipswitch to 1=ON, 2=OFF, 3=OFF, 4=OFF

4 Connect to the micro USB connector (next to the dipswitch)

5 Power on the board

6 Run the following command in Windows PowerShell: 
 .\uuu.exe -b emmc_all imx-boot-sm2s-imx8mp-sd.bin-flash_evk avnet-image-weston-sm2s-imx8mp.wic.zst

Or in Linux: 
 
 .\uuu -b emmc_all imx-boot-sm2s-imx8mp-sd.bin-flash_evk avnet-image-weston-sm2s-imx8mp.wic.zst
