SAM7-H64 Compiling and Downloading

Hi,

From what I can see all the example projects and literature is based on the SAM7-P64 board. Which is fine, but I’m having a problem modifying the LED blinking program to work. I changed the port which is toggling to corespond to the proper hardware configuration on the H64 board, but I can’t get it to blink. I’m not sure if it is a problem with the configuration of the compiler, or the download process, but I have tried many things.

One thing I noticed is that there was not a “bin” option in the drop down list as mentioned on page 26 of the getting started manual. I attempted to create my own, but I’m unsure if all the settings were correct. I changed my setting to be the same for all setting which were visible in the screen shots of the getting started manual, but still I couldn’t seem to get it to work.

The download process seems simple enough, so I assume it must be a problem with the .bin file that I’m generating. When I initially plugged in the board, the LED was flashing, so I assume it was loaded with a proper version of this program before shipment. Would you be able to post the proper version of that project for this board, or let me know if there are steps I should perform which are missing in the documentation.

Thanks,

Is there Cstartup files in your project? If not, you may have downloaded the wrong project.

I have updated my web page with the correct project placed just next to the Getting Started guide, to avoid confusion.

Hey, Thanks for the info. That worked like a charm… that and setting the proper data direction bits :slight_smile:
