A Troubleshooting

Problem
The firmware can not be loaded.

Possible reasons

• The BDI is not correctly connected with the target system (see chapter 2).

• The power supply of the target system is switched off or not in operating range

(4.75 VDC ... 5.25 VDC) --> MODE LED is OFF or RED

• The built in fuse is damaged --> MODE LED is OFF

• The BDI is not correctly connected with the Host (see chapter 2).

• A wrong communication port (Com 1...Com 4) is selected.

Problem
No working with the target system (loading firmware is ok).

Possible reasons

• Wrong pin assignment (BDM/JTAG connector) of the target system (see chapter 2).

• Target system initialization is not correctly --> enter an appropriate target initialization list.
• An incorrect IP address was entered (BDI2000 configuration)

• BDM/JTAG signals from the target system are not correctly (short-circuit, break, ...).

• The target system is damaged.

Problem
Network processes do not function (loading the firmware was successful)

Possible reasons

• The BDI2000 is not connected or not correctly connected to the network (LAN cable or media

converter)

• An incorrect IP address was entered (BDI2000 configuration)
