What to do if Abatron Computer Accessories are not working with the target system?
If you're unable to work with the target system after successfully loading the firmware on your Abatron Computer Accessories, consider these potential causes: * Check the pin assignment (BDM/JTAG connector) of the target system. * Ensure correct target system initialization by entering an appropriate target initialization list. * Verify that the IP address entered is correct (BDI2000 configuration). * Inspect the BDM/JTAG signals from the target system for any short-circuits or breaks. * Consider the possibility of damage to the target system.
Why can't the firmware be loaded on Abatron Computer Accessories?
If the firmware cannot be loaded on your Abatron Computer Accessories, it might be due to several reasons: * The BDI might not be correctly connected with the target system. * The target system's power supply could be switched off or out of the operating range (4.75 VDC ... 5.25 VDC), indicated by the MODE LED being OFF or RED. * A damaged built-in fuse could be the cause, also indicated by the MODE LED being OFF. * The BDI might not be correctly connected to the Host. * A wrong communication port (Com 1...Com 4) might be selected.
What to do if Abatron BDI2000 are not working with the target system after firmware loading?
If you're experiencing issues with the target system after successfully loading the firmware on your Abatron Computer Accessories, several factors could be at play. First, verify the pin assignment (BDM/JTAG connector) of the target system. Ensure correct target system initialization by entering an appropriate target initialization list. An incorrect IP address in the BDI2000 configuration could also be the cause. Check for any BDM/JTAG signal issues from the target system, such as short circuits or breaks. Lastly, consider the possibility of damage to the target system itself.
Why the firmware can not be loaded on Abatron BDI2000?
If the firmware cannot be loaded on your Abatron Computer Accessories, consider these potential causes: * The BDI might not be correctly connected with the target system. * The target system's power supply could be switched off or operating outside the range of 4.75 VDC to 5.25 VDC, indicated by the MODE LED being off or red. * A damaged built-in fuse, also indicated by the MODE LED being off. * Incorrect connection between the BDI and the host. * Selection of a wrong communication port (Com 1...Com 4).
What to do if Abatron BDI2000 Computer Accessories do not work with the target system after loading firmware?
If the Abatron Computer Accessories aren't working with the target system after the firmware loads, it could be due to a wrong pin assignment (BDM/JTAG connector) of the target system. Check that target system initialization is correct by entering an appropriate target initialization list. Ensure that you've entered the correct IP address in the BDI2000 configuration. There might be incorrect BDM/JTAG signals from the target system (short-circuit, break, etc.), or the target system itself may be damaged.
How to fix firmware loading issues on Abatron BDI2000?
If the firmware isn't loading, the BDI might not be correctly connected with the target system or the host. Ensure the target system's power supply is switched on and within the operating range (4.75 VDC ... 5.25 VDC). A damaged built-in fuse could also be the cause. Finally, a wrong communication port (Com 1...Com 4) might be selected.
What to do if Abatron Computer Accessories are not working with the target system after loading firmware?
If the Abatron Computer Accessories aren't working with the target system after the firmware loads successfully, check the following possible causes: * Incorrect pin assignment (BDM/JTAG connector) of the target system. * Incorrect target system initialization, requiring an appropriate target initialization list. * An incorrect IP address entered in the BDI2000 configuration. * BDM/JTAG signal issues from the target system, such as short circuits or breaks. * Damage to the target system.
How to troubleshoot firmware loading issues on Abatron BDI2000 Computer Accessories?
If the firmware cannot be loaded, consider these potential causes: * Incorrect BDI connection with the target system. * Target system power supply issues (switched off or outside the 4.75 VDC ... 5.25 VDC range), indicated by the MODE LED being OFF or RED. * A damaged built-in fuse, also indicated by the MODE LED being OFF. * Incorrect BDI connection with the Host. * Selection of a wrong communication port (Com 1...Com 4).
What to do if Abatron Recording Equipment is not working with the target system after loading firmware?
