Re: Cypress Tutorial?

No, sorry, not the same issue, although our solutions may be similar (rebuild with appropriate toolset).
Perhaps you can install the old CD on a separate computer and load the previous year's .hex file to the board.

I am afraid we may have to port the code to a variant processor, as the psoc5 uses a different compiler and probably different header files. We don't want to tear up previous driver stations, as we use them for promotions and recruiting. ;-(

Thanks for the response, RayG

As long as you are using the board that shipped in the kit a year ago, then the firmware should work for you. It has not been recompiled since then (no bugs reported since beta last year). If you can provide the exact error, I may be able to help you figure our what's going wrong. If I had to guess based on what you've told us so far, it would be that you downloaded a newer version of the programmer than the board supports, though I've never actually seen a complaint like that from the programmer software.
