PIC18F85J50 [solved]

[raye]

Hi All,
This product looks just the thing BUT i cannot get it to work Something im doing wrong im sure. The problem is the BL is not found when i click write and do a reset manually on the PIC.

DS30 version 1.5.3 (engine 2.2.7) with all the check boxes in advanced unchecked and all other settings at default.

My PIC application osc config with 4mhz crystal
PLLDIV = 1 ;Divide by 1 (4 MHz oscillator input)
CPUDIV = OSC4_PLL6 ;System clock divide 6
FOSC = HSPLL ;HS oscillator, PLL enabled

My app is compiled with pic basic pro 2.6 and DEFINE LOADER_USED 1 at the top of the code.

My serial comms on the app works OK so no hardware problems there.

I have made no changes to user_code.inc or any other file.

I build the bootloader .hex in MPLAB 8.86 and the file builds OK

Here is my DS30 settings.inc

any ideas

Hi,
It looks good as far as I can see. The oscillator config seems fine and uart1 pins are digital only. The baudrate is ok with that osillator speed.

The solution from the datasheet?

The PLL will not be available until the PLLEN bit in the OSCTUNE register is set.

Hi Mikael,
Many thanks for that it works great I would like to thank you for a very nice bootloader, well documented and very easy to set up and use.......well done and keep up the good work.

Cheers
