10. In case flashing fails, an error message like below will be displays. This is an indication that

the debugger could not connect to the LPC1769 or LPC11C24. The most common reason is

that the microcontroller was in a low-power mode where debug connection is not possible.

Make sure the microcontroller is in ISP/bootload mode and try again. Also make sure the

small 10-pos flat cable is correctly connected.

5.2 Compiling the Demo Application

This section describes how to compile the demo application or any other sample application in general.

A separate document about the AOAA board software describes the details. The demo applications

have been developed in the LPCXpresso IDE. This is what is described. There are introduction videos

and presentation about how to get started with the LPCXpresso IDE on the LPCXpresso website, see

[8].

First make sure that the latest version of the LPCXpresso IDE is installed.

Secondly, start the LPCXpresso IDE and select a new (and empty) workspace directly.

Third, import the package of sample application projects into the Eclipse workspace. The package can

be downloaded (as a zip-file) from Embedded Artists support page after registering the product. The

zip-file contains all project files and is a simple way to distribute complete Eclipse projects.

Select the Import and Export tab in the Quickstart menu and then Import archived projects (zip), see

figure below.
