PDVS2mini FIRMWARE UPGRADE (ATMEL AVR DRAGON)
An alternative method of updating the firmware is by using an Atmel AVR Dragon.
Launch Atmel Studio 7 and select TOOLS, DEVICE PROGRAMMING.
Connect the AVR Dragon to a USB port of your PC.
On the PDVS2mini bridge J1 (this selects 3.3V for ICSP). It is bridged by default.
On PDVS2mini (fresh batteries only, do NOT use DC power) fit a jumper to JP1 power bypass, the
PDVS2mini will power up.
Connect an ISP cable (6-way both ends type) from the PDVS2mini ICSP header to the AVR Dragon ISP
header (note orientation and pin1).
On Atmel Studio Select AVR DRAGON, ATm
ega1284, ISP……then hit APPLY.
The PDVS2mini will be interrogated, you should see the programming voltage report 3.3Vdc and if you
select FUSES you should see the sett
ings populate, hit LOCK BITS you should see the same…….don't
touch anything, this is just proving the PDVS2mini is being interrogated live.
Go to MEMORIES and under FLASH select the HEX file, press PROGRAM. You should see the Erase,
Program and then Verify cycles. This should take about 40secs total.
When finished unplug the PDVS2mini and remove JP1 power bypass.
