dfuApp: Device does not support download

I recently upgraded my LPCXpresso to version 4.1.0 (Windows 7) and soon after I started getting the following error when trying to debug my code.

I get the same error for all of my LPCXpresso boards.  I installed 4.1.0 on another machine and the boards work fine, so it appears that something is wrong with my v4.1.0 installation on my main machine.  I’ve reinstalled the “USB Device with DFU Capabilities” driver but that did no good.

If I run the following dfuApp command line with an LPC11C24 boarded attached.

dfuapp.exe /f LPCXpressoWIN.enc /l log.txt

I get the following output which I can’t decode….

Anyone have a clue on what my problem is?

Once I changed the dfuapp timeout, the “Device does not support download” error has gone away. Thanks very much for the help with that. But that has expose a new problem.  Most of my LPCXpresso boards now work just fine, but my LPC11C24 board has the following Connect to emulator or board error.

I’m running Windows 7 and the error occurs whether I’m running native or under a VM.  Forcing the chip into ISP mode does not help. Changing USB cables does not help.  I dropped down into the command shell and ran several tests which might help someone tell me what’s wrong.

This vital piece of information was missing from your previous posts.

I can confirm that the dfuapp and the drivers have not changed in LPCXpresso for over a year and therefore the most likely cause of this issue is that you have upgraded your VM, which has introduced the issue.

To increase this timeout:
Window->Preferences
LPCXpresso
  Debug Emulator

and change the "LPC-Link Boot delay" to 500

OK now we're getting somewhere.  The idea of increasing the timeout in the ./Scripts/bootlpcxpresso.cmd worked.  Once I edited the script and ran it, the error message disappeared and the LPC-link probe appeared on my device list.

However the LPCXpresso IDE still displays the old "Device does not support download" error.  And if I run ./bin/DFUAPP.exe I still get the error message too.  Do I have to do something other than modify the ./Scripts/bootlpcxpresso.cmd??

It seems to be coming down to an VM interaction with Windows 7.  I’ve been running LPCXpresso on Windows 7 under Parallels for several months without problems but now I get the following error.

The following configurations work OK on my Mac laptop.

[LIST]
[*]Dual-boot the computer directly into Windows 7. OK.
[*]VMWare running Windows 7. OK.
[*]Parallels running Windows XP. OK.
[/LIST]


But Parallels running Windows 7 doesn't work any more.  I’ve even tried installing a new VM with a fresh install of Windows 7 and LPCXpresso but no luck.

I’ve looked at your FAQ regarding running under a VM but I don’t think that applies here since as far as I can tell the DFU loader doesn’t get as far as installing the new firmware (“Device does not support download??”).

Any suggestions on how to debug this?

You can try using the ./Scripts/bootlpcxpresso.cmd from a command-line prompt to determine if it succeeds in uploading the probe firmware and/or experiment with different dfuapp.exe timeout values. A different timeout setting may be a better fit for your USB controller. For example, instead of

"%BOOT_HOME%\..\dfuapp" /f "%BOOT_HOME%\..\%ROM%" /tl 250 /l dfuapp.log

try

"%BOOT_HOME%\..\dfuapp" /f "%BOOT_HOME%\..\%ROM%" /tl 500 /l dfuapp.log

As the boards work on another PC, the most likely reasons are hardware related (if you get this far, there is not an installation problem). Try:
- USB cable. You need to use a shielded USB2 compliant cable
- Power. Try another USB port.
