Sorry about the lack of detail... The board is a PB-0555 from Axiom Manufacturing. All I have to gone on for the ROM monitor is the following from the board manual (available from http://www.axman.com/files/MPC5XX/PB-555/doc/Manuals/PB555man.pdf): ______________________________________________________ You can also load a program into memory and execute it using this utility. A simple "hello world" program is provided for you on the disk as an example. Follow these steps: 1. Select 1 on the main menu. At the monitor prompt > type dl and hit <enter>. 2. Select the send text file (or upload) command from your terminal program and locate the file named "HELLO_R.S19" included on the software disk. Send this file to the board. 3. If your terminal is set to Echo characters sent, you should see each line of the file sent. The last line of the file contains the START address of the hello program, which is 3FA004. 4. Type go 3FA004 at the prompt. You should see the phrase "Hello World!" echoed back to the screen, which is all that this simple test program does, each time you hit a key. 5. To exit from this test program, hit the RESET button on the board. ________________________________________________________ Another excerpt from the manual: ________________________________________________________ The utility software provided uses the serial port connected to your PC running a terminal program as described under "Getting Started". While you can use almost any commercial or free serial communications terminal interface, it is important that you configure it to work properly with this board. The following settings are important: 1. BPS: 9600, Data Bits 8, Parity none, Stop Bits 1 2. Flow Control should be set to HARDWARE 3. Emulation should be ANSI 4. When uploading files to the board, be sure to send in Text mode. 5. When programming CMFI memory, you must use ONE of the following: a. 15 millisecond pace delay after each line b. wait for echo character following each line _________________________________________________________ This is all the information I can provide. So it is expecting text mode transfer. It seems as though ascii-xfr is sending more than just the plain .s19 file that the monitor is not expecting. I can communicate with the board and issue commands, the download just doesn't work. Thanks for the interest. Any ideas are welcome. -Kyle McDowell >===== Original Message From bgat at billgatliff dot com ===== >Kyle: > > >Whose board is it?
