PSoC problems

We are having trouble programming our PSoC, we have the right hex file, the program says that the PSoC is connected and powered, but whenever we try to program it we get a message saying
"FAILED! PSoC device is not acquired! Check connection of the chip to the programmer"

We have the 9v battery plugged in

What should we do?

Re: PSoC problems

I don't have any helpful suggestions, sorry. But the board gets its power from the USB connection and the battery should not be necessary.

BTW, where did you find the hex file? I have been playing with the SoC a while back but couldn't find the hex file.

Did you make the mistake of installing the generic Cypress DVD that came with the board?

Re: PSoC problems

Yes, I did install the Cypress disc. Should I not? If so, where do I get the proper software?

Thanks.

Re: PSoC problems

Don't install the Cypress DVD software. It conflicts with the FIRST versions of the same software.

Uninstall and clean out all the Cypress software, then reinstall the Cypress software from the Driver Station Update.

I see. Thanks for the pointer. I will try that tonight.
