BL0086 mloader error

Post by mgennip »

I am getting an error when trying to compile to chip.

What does this mean?

I installed the latest USB drivers for the BL0086 AVR board.

I can detect an attached E-blocks2 board (with auto-id).

Hello,

What version of mLoader are you using? Is it supplied with a version of Flowcode or downloaded seperatley from our site? Has it worked previously?

Is Open = No means mLoader cannot open a connection to the board, is there anything else that might have a connection open, e.g. another instance of mLoader running maybe in the background.

Might be worth restarting the computer and unplugging replugging the board to see if that helps at all.

mLoader version is 4.0.0.1, installed by the Flowcode v8 installer.
Flowcode version is 8.0.0.6

This is the first time i use this BL0086 board and mLoader.

I have found that when i run mLoader.exe (from the program files\flowcode directory) i can send, erase and execute the Hex-file compiled from Flowcode.

It seems that Flowcode does not correctly calls mLoader when using 'compile to chip'

Hello,

Thanks for letting us know and glad the stand alone mLoader is working well.

It may be that the problem has already been fixed in Flowcode v8.2 can you update your installation to this and then run the check for updates to get all the latest component and definition updates.

I think the numbers at the end may be the AVR config flags.
