Recognition Problem

[rnixon]

How are you connected to UART0? USB or DB9?

What are all the jumper settings on your development board? You need to make sure they are jumpered to the right port for rx.

It is connected through UART0. I do not know what the jumper settings are. Can you tell me how to check and change them?

[rnixon]

UART0 is just the UART on the processor. What really counts is how UART0 is connected to your computer. If you are using a dev board from NetBurner it is either USB or DB9. I can't really help you much if you don't know which is the one connected, and cannot read your physical jumper settings on the dev board.

Which revision of the development board do you have?

With this we can try to help identify the links you need to setup. Rnixon is right, if you don't have the links set correctly, the RX line won't work and could explain why the board is not receiving the 'A' when you send it.

Just in case you have the latest revision, check JP3 and make sure this is linked for RS232 and not USB or RS485.

I have Rev 1.7 . And the UART0 is connected through the serial port on the dev board. It comes up with the information in MTTTY when I reset the dev. board that says "Waiting 2 sec... 'A' to abort" but it won't let me input 'A'.

Dude, we're really trying to help you, but how many people have to ask you for the jumper settings on the dev board before you give in and tell us what they are?

I got the input into MTTTY working. Sorry fr giving you a hard time about it. I corrected my jumper settings and all. But now after I type in FLA to load a program it takes it a long time and when it has not made any progress, I cancel it and it gives me an error of "Errors were occurred in download Flash not downloaded" Please let me know what I can so about this. FYI my jumper settings are UART0 RX.

Never mind. I found documentation on what I needed. Thanks for all the help.
