Updating the Firmware on the CPU
IMPORTANT!
ALWAYS CUT THE POWER TO THE CPU AND MODULES BEFORE CONNECTING THE PROGRAMMER-CABLE
The programmer cable must only be connected when the CPU and modules are NOT powered. (Switch off the PC2 completely!)
CPU and modules will get power from the programmer cable.
If the CPU or modules are powered and connected with the programmer-cable it will damage your computer, CPU and/or modules and programmer-cable.
Connecting the programmer cable while CPU and/or modules are powered is not covered by our warranty.
Connect the programmer to the computer and CPU or modules
Cut power to the CPU (switch of the PC2)
Connect the Programmer cable to your computer with the USB cable.
Connect the programmer to the CPU. (see images below)
The "flat cable" should always be on the outside of the PCB
As soon as you connect the programmer the CPU or module should start-up, it gets power from the Programmer.
Connect programmer to CPU
Connect programmer to Relay module
Connect programmer to Motor module
Open the "HCS08 Programmer" software on you PC
You'll find it in the "USBDM 4.12.1.262" folder
Once the HCS08 program opens it looks like this (Right image -->)
Click the tab "Target" in the flash programmer
Click the "Load Hex File" button to select the correct FW-File...
First check the Hardware "Build revision number" on the CPU or Module.
You can find the build version of the CPU, Cover or relay module on the module itself.
It is printed on the PCB. (See images above)
Download the Firmware files here...
To check the connection and let the software automatically select the device click the "Detect Chip" button.
