Firmware problem
Re: Firmware problem
Hi
If you do everything according to this description, you must succeed.
The condition is one, the driver for FTDI chip has to be installed correctly beforehand.
And, of course, don't forget to turn on the printer's power.
I can tell you something more.
Simply start with this step.
You may also try to describe your intensification in detail. Then we will know whether you have made a mistake somewhere.
For the time being, we only know that you have failed to perform this responsible operation correctly. But we do not know the cause of the failure.
I wish you success and perseverance.

- 1. turn off the power supply,
- 2. Connect the USB cable,
- 3. Put on the jumper cap,
- 4. Turn on the printer power supply,
- 5. observe LED D7 - must not be extinguished,
You can read more about this here,
- 6. start the Flash Loader Demonstrator program,
- 7. Be sure to set the correct address for the input.

Re: Firmware problem
Ok, i need to install the bootloader before firmware? Led D7 is on, its mean the bootloader is instaled?
Re: Firmware problem
Yes, the bootloader must be present for firmware programming to succeed.
An illuminated D7 LED indicates that the botloader should be active.

Re: Firmware problem
Of course, remember to remove the jumper cap after the programming process and reset the controller board.
