Re: Programming Problem: Extremely Frustrating
Does the default code work?

If you can back out to very simple, "known good" conditions, and it still doesn't work, you may want to call IFI. I had trouble with the IF loader last year and they were very helpful.

But first try to eliminate as many suspect things as possible, things that IFI cannot vouch for, which means your code and any extra connections. Back off to the default code. Unhook all unnecessary wires until the only wires you have are those required to test download and running.

Get the new firmware and make sure you have the new compiler 2.40. Apparently last year's compiler does not support stuff in the new firmware.
