Power Up to Configure?

[Todd Charles]

Do I need to "power up" the board before I am able to connect it to the configurator? When I open the configurator I get an error message "Could Not Connect To The Controller". I also cannot get it to work with Hyper Terminal. All Voltages check out on the board and I have double checked my cable.

Yes, you need to have the unit powered up first. No special power-up sequence needed, however.

Thank you Brent! I haven't had a chance to try this yet but am sure it is my problem. The only reason I even considered this option was after reading about your beta software programming procedure.

Edit: This did work!! Thanks again!
