Im having brand new out of the box cores presenting problem.
DC shows the message:
While sending pilot bios, Target communication error.

Yes, they are RED PCBs

A red pcb is lead free and the lead free solder is finiky about heat during reflow. There was a discussion somewhere else about the same thing, can't remember where. No "real" proof since the user did not want to take a soldering iron to parts he might have to return, but the conclusion was reached that there is a bad solder joint. You need a really good microscope to see some of these (if they are not BGAs). The problem is that when RESET is toggled the PC gets no response. So which is it the Reset signal or the serial signal, the ground, the connector.....

Hope you feel like a hunt, or you just return them.

Let us know one way or another.

I assume you've checked your programming cable (i.e. it is working with other RCM's)?

Any suggestions?

Thanx
Hi

Is any idea how to compile new lib and add it to
rabbit lib. I tried to compile it on Dynamic 9.10,
does not compile with out adding void main (void).

Thanks.

You will ALWAYS need to have a file some where that has main().
That's how C works. It can use functions and constants from other
library files, however. In C, you would use "include" to reference
headers. In Dynamic C, you use "use" to pull in functions from other
files.

Read the manuals, run the examples. Many of the examples are
single-file programs, but you will fine some theat use the #use
directive. It will take you some time and effort to get the hang of this.

I also recommend that you pick up a copy of K&R, as it is an excellent
training on C by the guys who invented the language. For more info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)
It is a bargain at any price. If you do some digging, you may even
find some on-line excerpts.

Good luck, and enjoy the learning experience!

DC is not like a normal C compiler. It does not support separate
compilation of libraries. When you compile your program, your source and
all the libraries it uses are compiled at once.

If writing a new lib, just add a "#use new.lib" to a .c file with main()
and add new.lib to the lib.dir file.

Hi

I created my own test.c file and I want to add my own
lib file, TESTLCD.LIB, the main function is in test.c
file. I want to compile TESTLCD.LIB so I can use
function defined in that file in my test.c file (which
include void main(void)). If you open GPS.lib it does
not contain any void main (void). I tried with the
info mentioned in Dynamic c 9.10 doc.

#use "testlcd.lib" /* add to test.c */

and add testlcd.lib in lib.dir

Please let me know any thing else need to done.

Thanks.
