OSBDM08 firware has an option to use bulk endpoints (EP2) rather than the single control endpoint (EP0).    This option provides higher speed transfers but is not allowed by the  USB standard for low speed devices as it would  potentially tie up the bus for long periods of time.

XP appears to allow the use of this option even though it is not standard.

I do not believe that this option is actually used by the Codewarrior software, or more precisely by the interface DLL supplied with Codewarrior.

It appears that Vista does not allow these types of transfers but, even worse, it does not even allow a device supporting this configuration to  be configured.  That is, it won't even allow the device  to be correctly  opened even if the offending endpoints are not actually used.

This means that OSBDM08 will not function _at all_ under Vista.  I have confirmed this on several machine using Vista.

Deleting the offending endpoint allow operation under Vista.

Attached is minimally updated version of the Firmware that does this.  This is based upon the "OSBDM package build 7" posted above.

I do not have the appropriate hardware to test this particular build so  use it at you  own risk.  Please post if you can test this build.

bye

Dear Dan,

It's good to see this moviing forward.

Since you are working on this hardware/software can I ask you to consider/respond to the following two queries about the OSBDM software/hardware?  These may have some affect on your work.

Wow, finally Freescale has decided to steer the OSBDM FORWARD into the right direction, we have 2 of these sitting on the bench which have never worked properly except occasional miracle connections!

I suspect the problem originate either from the firmware,  driver file or the combination of the lot, will definitely try out the new uploaded firmware and driver etc.... hopefully this time it will actually work! Consistantly! and Reliably!

APPLAUDE TO FREESCALE!!!!

Eventhough we already have both the P&E HCS08 and HC08 BDM.

Thanks Learner!

What was the change for this version?

If we are going to get help supporting the OSBDM, maybe we should focus on pgo's version.  It supports both S08, RS08, S12 and has power control.

We just need to get it supporting ColdFire V1 Flexis parts.

Hello,  Dan

Many thanks for this great work.

I have a question : In CW 6.2, the osbdm seems not supported by the the new Flexis MCF51ACxxx. Is it any reason ?

Regarding the wonderfull  work of PGO, another challenge would be to adapt the TBLCF software to the OSBDM, in order to allow to use it with Eclipse/GCC/GDB and m68k-bdm-gdbserver (http://bdm.sourceforge.net) for a complete and free GNU toolchain for flexis MCF51xxx.
