CCS and Parallel Port init

videopac — Mon, 22 May 2006 18:28:52 GMT

Hi!

I am using the 7.3 version of the CodeWarrior for the Hybrid series (56F8356 to be specific) and after updating from 6.x to 7.3 the CSS and the Parallel Port init programs seems not to work. The Parallel Port init icon located near the time display in the windows "tool bar" shows: "Code Warrior: parallel port open failed (invalid port number ?)"

The port does work since I am using the JTAG flash loader program without problems.

So, the difference seems to be the new version of the CodeWarrior. Any ideas as to what I can have done wrong?

Best Regards,

Rikard

Just an update... I tried this on my laptop (an IBM with a docking list => lpt1) and then the CodeWarrior load started but almost at once I got the message "core not responding" or similar. But I could see the downloading start. Then I tried to do the flash over JTAG (that works with my regular computer) but that would not work. The program says that there is no hardware (Wiggler) connected. Sigh.

I can also mention that my regular computer has Windows 2000 and the laptop Windows XP Pro.

Any ideas? This is getting really frustrating! That it worked ok before upgrading from 6.x to 7.3 and not now...

Thanks,

Rikard

Hi,

We experienced several problem when the parallel on host was used with a sample parallel cable or via the wiggler interface.

To avoid them an USBTap can be used.

For details, please have a look to our web site:

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=USBTAP&tid=CWH

Some customer meets a problem similar to your issue due to the voltage of the Parallel port.

See below details:

Customer engineers examined the parallel port and found that the voltage supplied to the wiggler through the parallel port was about 1v. At least 3v must be supplied to the wiggler for proper operation.

Several users meet the same problem.

Can you please check it on your side ?

See below some tips fixing XP problems.

> (A) In windows XP/2000, the parallel port dialog checkbox entitled

> "Enable Legacy Plug and Play" should be checked. This setting is

> located

> in the Control Panel-->System-->Hardware->Device

> Manager->Ports->Printer

> Port (LPTX) dialog.

> (B) Here are the steps to modify the parallel port registry key

> appropriately:

> 1. save the winxp1.reg file to your hard drive

> 2. make sure you are logged in as the system administrator

> 3. run the winxp1.reg file (by double clicking on it)

> 4. A question will be displayed "Are you sure you want to add the

> information in c:\winxp1.reg to the registry?"

> 5. Click the Yes button

> 6. A message will display "Information in c:\winxp1.reg has been

> successfully entered into the registry."

> 7. restart your computer to apply the new changes

Try the following steps in the CCS Console window:

2. Start à Settings à Control Panel à System à Hardware à Device Manager

Ports à Printer Port(LPT1) double click on this and on the window go to the Resources tab.

Look at the I/O Range. The first I/O range is the address of the parallel port.

3. delete all

config cc parallel:0x0378

After doing this you should connect to the board without any problems.

Hope this will help you

Regards

Pascal
