This has me scratching my head
What is different about the 18X?
I have a project with an 18X. 5v regulated supply. Standard download circuit.
Been working fine for ages. Doing lots of software updates, no problem.
Then I get a few verification errors, but eventually programs.
Now it errors every time.
OK, suspect the 18X.
Move it to AXE090 same problem.
Now convinced it's the 18X, try a brand new one in AXE090.
Same problem.
Must be download cable then. (although firmware check is OK).
Try 08M. Programs fine.
Try 28X1. Programs fine.
Tried another 3 18Xs, all give instant verifaction error when in AXE090 and in AXE110.
Conclusion.
I can program any chip in any board except any 18X won't program in any of the boards.
Open to suggestions.
PS.
Done a re-boot. No change. Everything fine except 18X.
Tried different ports as well.
Verification error on any download attempt to any 18X including clear hardware.
Firmware check works.
All other chips work.
PPS.
Tried uninstall/install of editor thinking maybe 18X specifc file corrupt.
No change.
PPPS.
Dug out old machine. Editor V4.1.5. No USB.
Programs the 18Xs just fine. (so the chips are fine)
So why not this machine and why only 18X a problem?
Why suddenly, was never a proplem before?
