incompatible firmware

[dmedore]

I have successfully compiled code, but when trying to flash the firmware using PEAK-Flash it tells me that the firmware is incompatible

I am able to successfully compile and flash other projects that I have created. So what causes the firmware to be incompatible?

Thanks

Also, are you sure you have the right hadware-example as a basis?

Thanks! I got careless when deleting some of the example code, adding that back in resolved the issue.

I also have the problem that I get the message "Incompatible firmware". I have not deleted that line of code, however it is red underneath, i also get red messages from the crc_data.h. I think these things are related....Can somebody help me out?

Hi,

please post a screenshot of the problem, showing which device you want to flash. Next, please compile one of our examples and try to flash it to your PCAN-Router FD. Does it show the same problem?

regards

Michael

I have not written my own code yet, I was trying to put different examples on it for learning how it works, but even those don't work. I have the CAN TO USB adapter and the PCAN-Router (IPEH-002210-P 05525). Hope you understand my problem, if not please let me know.

If you follow the instructions in the package, you will get it work.
X hundreds of customers get it work, so why should it not work on your system.
Without seeing the compiler / linker output etc. we are not able to give you some help… sorry…

I have tried to install the devpack according to the manual twice, but I still encounter the same issues where a significant portion of my code components are not recognized. From my perspective, there isn't much explanation beyond extracting the file to a local directory and running the VSCode file. The only part that doesn't work for me is executing the 'make' command via the terminal of VS Code. However, I am able to run the 'Make' command using CDM, and I get files in the .out directory with no error messages. I came across these instructions in the PCAN Router Documentation. Only when I try to upload it to my PCAN Router via the Flash software, I receive a message stating that my file is not compatible. Do you have any idea what might be causing this issue? Thank you in advance, Stef.

We do not know what exact you do different to x hundred other customers - where it work.
So we are sorry, always posting "it do not work" without any real and useful outputs is not very helpfullly...
So sorry - no we do not know what you do different / wrong.
We have a Video that shows the single steps - maybe that explains it better for you.
! Take care that, when using the PEAK-Flash Tool, that you want to flash a Device that is connected to the CAN Bus - not a local Device !
