The new Version Flowcode 7.2.05

Post by sfrancke »

Hello

Had installed the update 7.2.05 and wanted to program with my programmer original Atmel AVRISP mkII my AVR chip what had worked with version 7.1.1.0, now does not want anymore. It is the same driver installed for it. The following error message occurs:

C: \ Flowcode7 \ Program Files> "C: \ Flowcode7 \ compilers \ avr \ batchfiles \ .. \ bin \ avrdude.exe" -p m8 -P usb -c usbtiny -U flash: w: "MyAVR_LCD_Ausgabe.hex"
Avrdude.exe: Error: Could not find USB device (0x1781 / 0xc9f)

C: \ Flowcode7 \ compilers \ avr \ batchfiles \ avrc_usbtiny.bat Has reported the error code 1

Thanks for a tip what I do

sorry for my bad English

Hello,

I have now installed again the version 7.1.1.0 and see my Atmel AVRISP MKII programmer is recognized again and I can again from Flowcode directly the program transfer, With the version 7.2.0.5 seems there probably still a bug to its.

Hello Sfrancke,

The problem is that the AVRISP mkII is now end of life so we have defaulted to the Tiny AVR programmer that we now supply.

To change 7.2.0.5 to use the AVRISP mkII programmer you need to do the following.

Click on Build -> Compiler Options.

Click on the Programmer tab.

Change the Location from this.

Code: Select all

$(appdir)compilers\avr\batchfiles\avrc_usbtiny.bat
to this.

Code: Select all

$(appdir)compilers\avr\batchfiles\avrc.bat
Click the save button at the top right hand side of the window.

Give the new setting a name e.g. AVRISP and click OK.

Make sure your new setting AVRISP has the Default checkbox ticked.

Click OK again.

Compile to chip should now work as it did before in 7.1.1.0.

Hi Ben,

I followed all the steps you listed above and recieve this compiler message:

C:\Users\Juried\DOCUME~1>"C:\PROGRA~2\FLOWCO~1\COMPIL~1\avr\BATCHF~1\..\bin\avrdude.exe" -p m168p -P usb -c avrispmkii -U flash:w:"Flowcode1.hex"
avrdude.exe: usbdev_open(): did not find any USB device "usb" (0x03eb:0x2104)

I confirmed proper operation of the AVRISPII with Atmel Studio 7 and all is well, as expected.

Please assist.

CJ

Hello,

Sorry you've not had a reply for a while, but just noticed your post.

Have you tried this FAQ?
http://www.matrixtsl.com/faq/index.php? ... artlang=en

I believe the driver supplied with AVRStudio is incompatible with AVRDUDE and you need to use this alternative driver. I have just tested this here in combination with the changes explained by Ben and it seems to work fine.

I hope this helps.
Steve.
