IAR+CC DEBUGGER+ CC111 fatal error

hi! 

I have been using the code size limited  version of IAR for 8051-version 8.30 to start development for a project using the CC111/CC1110. I m using CC debugger 2540 to load the code. It worked correctly until now.

But now, the red ligth is always on and when I try to debug it I see that : 

"Thu Apr 17, 2014 17:14:51: Fatal error: Failed to identify device. Check connections and/or reset hardware Session aborted!"

Do you have any suggestions??

  • The RED light on the debugger indicates that it is not able to detect what kind of device it is connected to. The status of the LED is not related to the PC tool or any driver, so this is either a problem with the debugger or the connected hardware. 

    Have you read the suggestions in the troubleshooting section (chapter 9) in the CC Debugger's User's Guide (www.ti.com/lit/swru197)?
