you need to line it up so that the corner of the chip with the dot printed into it is aligned with pin1 on your willem mate.

also check your willem is configured and responding properly by doing the hardware test and / or trying a simpler DIP style chip first.

Check what rev of the willem SW you've got. I'm on v0.98d8, using a willem 5.0c with tsop adapter.

cheers, fitz

Strangely with willem proggers what your 4.5 looks like depends on who made it, and the SW revisions are a mess too.

Ok hopefully your progger with tsop inserted looks as shown in my artists impression.

Set the DIP switches as shown in SW (after setting the correct TSOP model thru device menu), if still no good perform HW test / try another chip.

cheers, fitz

ukjohn · 25-06-08, 12:31 PM

have yuo got the origional firmware can you send it me

fitz · 25-06-08, 05:43 PM

Sorry not been on last couple o days. PM me an email address mate and i'll send you the dump.

Oh btw never used the file Willem_Ambit_250_255_Infinite myself but to save you lifting the chip again you can probably restore the bootloader using the softjtag program.

cheers, fitz
