Help and Support
There is no seperate toolchain,DFP,BSP for EV-COG-AD4050WZ, the DFP,BSP for EV-COG-AD4050LZ works with EV-COG-AD4050WZ.The user needs to change only the pin muxing based on his/her application.For help regarding pinmapping refer to the Hardware Details section.
Do you need help or have general support questions, than I hope this page helps you resolve those.
This page has a quickstart troubleshooting approach that goes over some very general questions and common pitfalls, but if you have a specific issue which requires more information or detail please contact us through EngineerZone or Email. (links can be found further down on the page where to direct specific questions)
What to do When Things Go Wrong
There are many things that can go wrong with an ecosystem this complex, but if you are having issues getting the board or software working, here are a few simple things you can try before contacting Analog Devices.
Check the Power
Program the EV-COG-AD4050LZ
Sometimes a flashed program doesn't run properly or can make it difficult to run the debugger.
The first thing to try in this case, is to
drag and drop a known good .HEX or .BIN program into flash.(something with quick visible indicators works best)
If drag and drop is not working, it may be necessary to erase the flash. To do so:
-
Make sure that the
USB is connected and on
UART header (P8) 1 & 2 and 7 & 8 are shorted.
Power cycle the EV-COG-AD4050LZ board while holding down the boot switch.
Select the mbed serial COM port in the CrossCore Serial Flash Programmer, and erase the flash.
-
If the mass erase didn't work, and you are trying to drag and drop a large .BIN file on EV-COG-AD4050LZ hardware, it's possible that the mbed interface file needs to be updated to support your application.
-
-
Not receiving/transmitting data to the
UART
Make sure that the
UART header (P8) is positioned in the correct destination to transmit/receive
UART data.
