Modus Toolbox: Error: kitprog3: failed to acquire the device

When trying to program my application on Modus Toolbox, this error occurs:

The exact application worked perfectly before but in the last few weeks this error keeps appearing and i dont know how to get it to work again. Everything seems to be as before so dont know why it is not working now when it was working previously.

Could it be a problem with the psoc 6 wifi bt prototyping kit itself? is so should i get a new one?

All help would be much appreciated!

Thank you,

Evan

Hi @EvanK4 

Can you please share the hex file of your project here?

Since your logs show power dropout,
Is it possible for you to monitor the power supply and see if it is below the desired level or fluctuating?

Best Regards

Which Evaluation kit are you working on??

I faced the same issue on CY8CKIT - 062S2 - 43012 Combo Kit

Basically the issue was with the J15 Jumper which was not connected properly. The voltage supply for the target was an issue. By placing this jumper properly, I was capable of resolving this issue.
