Troubleshooting Tips
If you experience trouble running the sample code with the Z8FMC16100 Series Motor
Control Development kit, determine if any of the following items can resolve the issue
before contacting
Zilog Technical Support
for assistance.
•
Verify that you are using ZDS II version 5.0.0 or later.
•
Ensure that you are using the unmodified sample project code as described in
Execut-
ing Sample Code in Debug Mode using ZDS II
on page 6.
•
Verify that you have properly connected the USB Opto-Isolator Smart Cable to the
host PC and the MC MDS board as described in
Step 3. Install the USB Smart Cable
Driver Software and USB Smart Cable
on page 7. Ensure that pin 1 of the cable is
properly aligned with DBG connector pin 1 of the MC MDS board.
•
After you have connected the 5 V DC power supply to the MC MDS board, the green
3.3 V DC LED D4 must be illuminated. If it is not illuminated, verify that power is
properly connected to the board as described in
