  • Page 16: Dealing With Errors

    Note 2: In the same situation of the target board, cables and PC, if FLASH2 often have error #6 but sometimes success, we recommend to examine the status of supplied power voltage, or miss-arrangement of required MCU port. See the User’s Guide of the arrangement about the proper reference circuit diagrams for the target board.

  • Page 17: Led Status Of Flash2 And Trouble Shootings

    FLASH2 output. No answer from the target MCU. In spite of the correct communications from FLASH2, the target MCU makes no reply. Check the circuit around the MCU in writing, especially the port MD/FWE/RESET and SCI port are controlled correctly. Sometimes, Xtal oscillation failures influence in transferring.

    MCU. If this error rate is more than above recommended 0.16%, the rate can’t be raised at the target program transfer. FLASH2 can control the target MCU into boot mode in programming procedure. For this automatic control function, the user’s interface must be organized for the connections to MCU ports that specified in Renesas Electronics hardware manual for the concerned MCU.

    *Upgrading compatible to 3v and R8C/M16C MCU series are included in this upgrade. Upgrading Control Software information Only upgrading the control software, FLASH2 can adapt to every new MCU of Flash memory MCU Microcomputers. For the series of single power supply, we present the new version for all Flash memory MCU Microcomputers releasing one after another.
