On 9/16/10 Wiggerl asked, “I tried to flash the hex file of the UEZ Demosoftware V 1.05 on my ARM-57TS-LPC2478 Board via USB-ICP and CA-ARM7DIMM Cable but i always fail during the flash process.

The following devices are used:

Evaluationboard: ARM-57TS-LPC2478 Rev. 1.1
Flash Device: USB-ICP Version 1.07
Flash Cable: CA-ARM7DIMM
Flashprogramm: Flash Magic V 5.6
UEZ Demosoftware: hex file V 1.05

The programm writes down “Unable to communicate. (transmit/receive)”.
I tried it with Baud Rate: 9600 and 19200 but both didn’t work.
I also checked the settings for the USB Serial Port driver:

bits per second: 9600 or 19200
data bits: 8
parity: none
stop bits: 1
flow control: none

May you can help me what’s wrong with this flashing process.”

Answered:

Did you verify the correct COM port setting (i.e. COM1 vs COM2, etc)

You will need to examine your computer properties for the proper COM port number.
