Workaround to program sb5101.

Post by usbbdm »

Here is how to program sb5101. I do not know the reason yet. When I know I will fix it in latter release.

The reason is that after the "detect" the DEBUG status is ON!!. You have to power off/ on the modem to have the debug back to off. So when "Program" command is sent you need to see debug off!!.

Here is how to program the sb5101.

1. type detect
2. Power off/on the modem. (You should see the debug status is off now).
3. load the code (ldram )
4. issue the program command.

This works on software 0.05. Happy testing!!

I have found why sb5101 can not be programmed. This is not a bug in the JTAG software, but the newer version of software will allow to config sb5101 to bypass this problem. Still work on programming DCT700 in non DMA mode, I hope next release will support both mode so sb5120 also can be programmed.

If anyone want to program sb5101 and can not wait for the 0.06 release let me know, add one line to the script will allow you program the sb5101 without using the turn off/on work around.

Confirmed by a member who use the JTAG to program sb5101 with 0.05 software.

If you use script add the following line after each "detect"
"poke ff300000 1a"

If you manually program, when you see "DEBUG ON" after "detect" type "poke ff300000 1a" this way you do not need to power off/on the modem to program. (The work around). 0.06 will allow you config it so no need to manually or script add this line.
