Description on how to use dsPicProgrammer to download firmware to DsPIC30F 5011 Development Board

Loading Bootloader (Once only)[edit]

Hardware Requirement[edit]

PC with USB port (with Windows)
ICD2 Programmer
Target Board
5V Power Supply

Software Requirement[edit]

MPLAB IDE v7.50: v7.60 is not compatible with our current ICD2 Programmers. There are consistent "Devices cannot be founded" warnings. See manual for details.

Files[edit]

dsPicBootloader (bl_$(MODEL).hex).

Procedure[edit]

Loading Bootloader
Step	Remarks
Install MPLAB IDE	Do NOT connect ICD 2 (via USB) to PC Execute MPLAB vX.XX Install.exe
Install USB Driver	Follow the instruction in (C:\Program Files\Microchip\MPLAB IDE\ICD2\Drivers\Ddicd2.htm)
Select Target Chip	Run MPLAB IDE on PC Select: Configure>Select Devices... Choose the correct dsPic model
Load Bootloader	Select: File>Import... Select bl_$(MODEL).hex
ICD 2 <-> PC	Plug-in ICD 2 to PC via USB cable
Target <-> ICD 2	Connect six pin cable to target board. Beware of the pin assignments. Only pin 1 - 5 are used. Power-up the target.
ICD 2 <-> PC	Select: Programmer>Select Programmer>MPLAB ICD 2 If this is the first time the ICD 2 is connected to PC, MPLAB IDE will automatically download the required OS to ICD 2, wait until it has finished If you have not connected and powered up the target, you might see Warnings on invalid device IDs, and/or running self tests. See results of self test if necessary: Programmer>Settings, Status Tab. Refer to ICD2 User's Guide Chapter 7.
Start Programming	Select: Programmer>Program Wait until finishes
Finishing	Power-down the Target Select: Programmer>Select Programmer>None Unplug USB cable

Download and Loading Firmware[edit]

dsPicProgrammer User Guide[edit]

dsPicProgrammerUserGuide_V2.0.1

Hardware Requirement[edit]

PC (Linux/Windows) with COM Port OR USB-COM converter cable
Target Board (with bootloader)
5V Power Supply

Software Requirement[edit]

dsPicProgrammer

Files[edit]

Application hex file (e.g. app.hex)

Procedure[edit]

Setup COM Port[edit]

Connect your USB-COM converter cable to your computer
Or Using a real COM PORT

Find out your COM port Number[edit]

Go to Control Panel \ Device Manager

Find out your Device COM Port Number

Get the Dspic Programmer[edit]

Download dsPicProgrammer.zip, from updated directory or svn server
Unzip the dsPicProgrammer.zip, then you have an unziped file.

Download Firmware[edit]

Save your .hex file(foo.hex) to the folder called firmware.
Run dsPicProgrammer.bat (Windows) / dsPicProgrammer.sh (linux)
- Make sure your device is connected through a "Direct RS232 Cable" to PC Serial Port.

Choose a COM port
Choose a baudrate

115200 is communication speed [in bps]

Choose a .hex file

Press start
Then press Yes to confirm programming the device

The status during programming

The programming have been completed, press OK the close the message box

Troubleshooting[edit]

Invalid COM Port[edit]

In case of selecting an invalid COM port, you should see the error message:
gnu.io.NoSuchPortException: Choosing COM Port Error
Solution: check the COM port ID, or close any programs that are using the COM Port

Missing firmware file[edit]

In case of selecting a firmware file that does not exist, you should see the error message:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: foo1.hex <The system cannot find the file specified>
Solution: check the file path

Missing RXTX driver[edit]

In case of missing the RXTX driver, you should see the error message:
Exception in thread “main” java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: gnu/io/UnsupportedCommOperationException
Solution:
- Copy RXTXcomm.jar to /dsPicProgrammer/rxtx/lib
- Copy rxtxSerial.dll to /dsPicProgrammer/rxtx/bin (Window)
- Copy librxtxSerial.so to /dsPicProgrammer/rxtx/bin (Linux)

Missing JAVA[edit]

In case of missing JAVA JDK or JRE, an error message will be prompted.
Solution:
- Copy the contents under directory C:/Program Files/Java/jre$(VERSION)/ to /dsPicProgrammer/jre
