Dear All,

   

 

   

I tryed to download with USB Control Center. I selecetd this option : Program ->  FX3 -> RAM.

   

But this tool said "Bootloader is not running : Please reset your device to download firmware."and I can not continue to download process.

   

I confirmed Streamer tool was running correctly, but in Bulkloop tool, does not work well showing "no device".

   


I installed SDK including host driver and "Cypress FX3 USB StreamerExample Device" was shown in device manager in win7.

   

My environment is as follows.

   

・SuperSpeedExplorerKitSetup_RevSS

   

・Windows 7 64bit

   

・CYUSB3KIT-003

   

 

   

How can I download firmware?

   

 

   

Best Regards.

Hi shirokurocats_1542536,

   

It looks like you have already programmed FX3 and a firmware is running in the FX3 RAM. In order to reprogram the FX3, the bootloader should be running. Please hard reset the FX3 using 'RESET' push button or power cycle the EVM to get the bootloader running for programming FX3.

   

 

   

Thanks,

Hi KCNGP

   

 

   

I did not short all jumpers. After I did that,

   

I could download firmware to CYUSB3KIT-003.

   

 

   

Thank you for your help!

Dear all,

I recently have a  SuperSpeed Explorer Kit and I installed SDK  and running  Streamer Example correctly.

Do I have also to install SuperSpeedExplorerKitSetup_RevSS ?

What are the steps that I must take in order to be able to run  BULKLoop example?

Thank you for your help!

Best Regards
