TRF7970A EVM Firmware Update failed

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TRF7970A

Hi,


Since I flashed the newest firmware from the download section (sloc300) into the TRF7970A I can't connect to the target with the GUI (SLOC301). I get a timeout error when the gui tries to connect. Also with other tools like HTerm I do not get any responds. I also tried the lagency firmware (SLOC250) with the same error. Do I'm using the wrong firmware for working with the GUI?

Thanks for help.

  • Roland - 

    did you check COM port settings in device manager (on PC)? needs to be set to 115200, 8N1

     also, there may be a limitation for COM port #...you can also try to set it to a lower COM port # (if above does not fix it) (maybe below COM12 or so)

  • It already worked fine but sometimes the GUI crashed so I decided to try the newest firmware. In the device manager it's all configured like explained in the data sheet. I' also tried to reinstall the driver but nothing changed. I also tried differt usb port an differt com ports... nothing
  • I found my mistake.
    I compiled the project with my TI v 4 compiler but the original was build with ti v 3. So then I flashed it without compiling again (because there is also a binary available) it works fine.
