A problem with ZAP ICD 6812(paged) V3.70a

Started by Yogeesh July 1, 2003
Hi,

We are using M68KIT9S12DP256 Evaluation board (EVB), P&E multilink BDM interface, CXPROG and ZAP ICD 6812
(paged) V3.70a on Win98SE.

The problem is that when we try opening ZAP, a dialog box comes up with the message "Can't find Target
speed"!!! Clicking OK brings up ZAP configuration window. We were surpried to see that the Cable version
was '??' and even after selecting DP256 as target, problem continues. We even uninstalled and re-installed
everything.

The connections are as below:

* From PC's LPT1, thru a dongle, P&E BDM Multilink cable to EVB's BDM-IN.

We have been using this setup for the past 6 weeks without any concerns. We encountered this problem when
we tried loading an ".s19" file thru ZAP's command window. It started giving error messages indicating "INVALID
RAM ADRESS" a lot of times.. We thought, it tried loading each record and is coming with this message and as
the file was quite large, just did CTRL+ALT+DEL. And from then on, this has been ths state...

Any help to resolve this issue is welcome....

Cheers,
Yogeesh.

Hi,

I had something like this happening as well. Dont fear, it is usually corrupted
code downloaded to the target that screws arround with the Flash protection
registers and then lock you out on the next reset. P&E has just the antidote for
this shocker - "unsecure" its called, you can download it free.....now.

AN2400/D, available on the Motorola web site, is a good starting point.

The "Device User's Guide" and latest flash section of the Motorola
documentation for your particular part tell you (almost) all you need to
know, but in a very compact form without much background.
