    Hello!

    I am having two problems when using the programming board.

    1. When trying to download the program to the sensor (Rene in my case), it appears the following error

    uisp -dprog=dapa --erase
    pulse
    Atmel AVR AT90S8535 is found.
    Erasing device ...
    pulse
    Reinitializing device
    Atmel AVR AT90S8535 is found.
    sleep 1
    uisp -dprog=dapa --upload if=binrene/main.srec
    pulse
    Atmel AVR AT90S8535 is found.
    Uploading: flash
    Error: Data polling readback status: write=0x74 read=0xff
    If device was erased disable polling with the -dno-poll option.
    make: *** [install] Error 2

    Some times if I try several times (more than 15) I can download the program. Any suggestions?

    2. By mistake I program one Rene with the switch in the Little Guy position, now every time I put this Rene in the programming board I have the following error:

    uisp -dprog=dapa --erase
    pulse
    Probably the AVR MCU is not in the RESET state.
    Check it out and run me again.
    make: *** [install] Error 2

    What can I do to have it working again?

    Thank you

    Manuel

      Hi,

      We have three things to try:

      1) Make sure that your using fresh batteries or are plugged into a power supply.

      If that doesn't help,
      2) Modify the makefile so that the uisp command contains the flag -dno-poll

      And if that doesn't help,
      3)Try this:
      - Flip the switch to the Little Guy position.
      - Do 'uisp -dprog-upload --erase'
      - Flip the switch to the Big Guy position and try the 'make install rene' again.

      Good luck.

      (Thanks to Rob Szewcyzk for help on this question.)
