Here are a few common tips and tricks when beginning SDK 2.1.1 development:
Java JRE Error:
The WICED SMART SDK utilizes a 32-bit version of an Eclipse based IDE which requires a 32-bit version of JRE to be installed.
If you have the 64-bit JRE installed you will need to install the 32-bit version as well.
The JRE is designed to allow both 32 and 64 bit variants to be installed on the same system.

| No BCM20737 detected |
| 1. Verify the BCM20737 tag is connected _AND_ powered |
| 2. Verify SW2 and SW3 switches are towards Vusb and Vreg respectively and all SW4 |
| switches are set to ON |
| 3. Press the reset button on the tag and retry |
| |
| If this problem persists, the EEPROM on the tag may be corrupted |
| Please see Appendix D in the Quick Start Guide for recovery instructions |

Download failed. This version of the SDK only supports download to BCM20736A1 and BCM20737A1 devices
If this happens, 2 things might be wrong:
- You may NOT have installed the Silicon Drivers:
- The WICED Sense Kit is NOT in download mode so:
- Hold the External WAKE Button (1) down for 3 seconds and try to download again.
