iSYSTEM, February 2003 5/8
Software in the combination with the development board can be used as a basis for developing
future applications also on your hardware. This project illustrates various programming issues,
which are essential to all winIDEA projects:
• Initialization of bus interface unit
• Initialization of configuration registers
• Implementation of dispatch table
• Format of linker definition file
• Correct project settings (Project>Settings), which ensure that iSystem tools are invoked
successfully
More interesting examples are also included on support CD.
Troubleshooting
EVB-56x doesn’t show life signs by first start
a) Check the power supplied to the EVB board – Diodes LD1 and LD2.
b) Ensure that FLEN is set accordingly to the EVB version (option M)
c) For first start the POD does not need to be connected to the debug port. EVB is
shipped with power on bootable test application. The debug port sometimes keeps the
device under reset until the connection is established.
d) Press the RESET button.
e) Try to load the code and run the board through the emulator.
Unable to download the code to the board
a) Check the power supplied to the EVB board
b) Ensure that the debug cable is configured and plugged into proper connector
c) Ensure that FLEN is set accordingly to the EVB version (option M)
d) Ensure that the correct workspace was loaded into winIDEA.
e) Check the hardware configuration:
• Tools>Hardware Plug-In
• Hardware>Hardware …
• Hardware>Emulation Options
f) Reset the board and try to connect again
Unable to program the Flash memory
a) Check the power supplied to the EVB board
b) Ensure that the debug cable is configured and plugged into proper connector
c) Ensure that FLEN is set accordingly (On for internal flash, Off for External)
d) Ensure that the correct workspace is loaded into winIDEA.
e) Check the hardware configuration:
• Tools>Hardware Plug-In
• Hardware>Hardware …
• Hardware>Emulation Options
• Flash>Setup….
f) Disconnect the power for few seconds and repeat the process
