When I attempt to drag and drop the .bin file, it does not work. Inside FAIL.TXT file, I get the message “Error while connecting to CPU”
The TB2 shows up in the Window’s 10 file hierarchy as TB004 (F:)
I believe I upgraded the TB file system per the instructions given on the TB2 board page. Simplicity Studio says the “Adapter Firmware Version: 1v4p2b352”
Hi Kevin, I have this board so can help. I’m sure its got the same firmware as yours and does work, let me dig it out, connect it up and I’ll come back here shortly.
Okay, I’ve connected mine to a Windows 10 PC and have this in my MBED.HTM file:
Compiled the demo (that’s using mbed os2 classic official library) and saved directly to the TB2 and is working.
I’ll try reloading the firmware on Simplicity Studio again and see what happens.
I can see I can roll back to previous versions in Simplicity Studio, can I suggest to roll back to the previous version, try it again on mbed and then reload the up to date version.
Tried that but couldn’t roll back the firmware, I think it only goes one way. However I loaded the TB sense 2 demo on Simplicity Studio that the board is shipped and that loaded and worked okay, so I suggest to try that and come back here…
I had the same terminal output as yours with some minor board specific differences.
I then tried to load SiLabs mbd blinky on mbed as usual, this one;
and… then I had the same issue as you have.
I think the SiLabs demo somehow blocks the USB MSD flashing.
To work around that simply, online compile the SiLabs blinky, drop it directly to the TB2 board WHILST pressing the reset button and release the reset button within a fraction of a second after you click save.
It should then load and start to blink the led as expected.
You may have to try a couple of times as the “click save and reset button release” timing can be a quite critical.
After that my TB2 works as normal.
Hopefully that should sort your problem, further to this I have had to do this on several other platforms in the past, something to watch out for.
