TH9X show after burning attempt "Eeprom Error"

Post by oti »

Hello,
i installed my SM Board into my TH9X.
After installation of SM Board, i use eepe an a the new er9x firmware.

At the start of burning, i got these following error and my remote show now only "eeprom error" :-(

=================================================================================
AVRDUDE gestartet
C:/Program Files/eePe/avrdude.exe -c usbasp -p m64 -P usb -U eeprom:r:C:/Users/xxx/AppData/Local/Temp/temp.hex:i
=================================================================================

avrdude.exe: error: programm enable: target doesn't answer. 1
avrdude.exe: initialization failed, rc=-1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.


avrdude.exe done. Thank you.


=================================================================================
AVRDUDE ist fertig - Exit code 1
=================================================================================

- i have a REV 2 th9x board
- and a SM Board Vers: 2.3
- i double check the cable connections
- i remove my Dragon Link connection
- i cleaned the connection on board with 100% isopropanol alcohol

no connection and no plug and play :?

What could be the problem?

thanks for help

I believe the new SP board requires that tx power is on while programming.
You didn't mention if it was on?
Also what OS are you using?
If windows look in device manager to see if the USB connection is shown. Also note the com port used and make sure that's entered in eepe.
Hopefully one of these items were missed and caused the error.
More details please

Hi,
i check the power and I got the same error message.

Operation System is Windows Vista 32 Bit.

The device manager show me a libusb-win32-device with smartieParts 9x programmer driver.
The device looks ok!

Settings at eepe are shown at the screenshot.

I have no ideas what is wrong?

Thanks
Oti

Hi,
i found the problem.

I pressed the SM Board from top with my finger, again the main board of the TH9x.
I hear a noise of the mass pins and the SM is moving a little bit.
After that, i try again to burn the firmware and now it works!

Thanks
Oti

I have this error after sending to TX:

If I use Companio9X it works ok.. so it is not my HW problem.
And after all - my TX is working as well... just this error - I cannot write models to TX.
