USB Transfer Error, Flash Memory Programming Failed

[christophereet1]

Hello all,

I am just coming back to an old project using the EASYdsPIC2 board and loaded the dsPIC software Ver 1.2.

I have the chip that came with the board still in. The PIC30F4013 and the Oscillator is 8.000 on the can.

The code I used is just some example. I get the message with the simple led blink.

Under the Project Setup: I have it set to Device P30F4013 and Clock 10.0000

I am using USB18F Firmware V1.2


Now I know that this chip worked because I had a little program I made 3 years ago running on it and now I get this error. ( can't find that program )

I remember I had a problem before and I solved it on my own. I think the setting need to be changed in the Project Edit or something!

under, Project Edit, I set it to "DEFAULT" settings. ( don't think that is correct. )

end.

when I try to install the embedded code I get using and example piece of code

"USB Transfer Error, Flash Memory Programming Failed!"


any idea would be great. Thanks.

Found the problem. It was because I was using an old piece of software for the ds pics. An older version does NOT work for new ds pic 6 boards!

Got it.

I do not know the dsPIC that well but how can you set the clock in the project as 10MHz but the crystal is 8MHz??

If I am misunderstanding then happy to be set straight.
