I haven't used the NEC PG-FP5, but I have controlled a different flash programmer through LabVIEW using the System Exec.vi. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

Hi,

 

I am trying to Flash a microcontroller using FP5 programmer. 

I have HEX file which I will download to the FP5 memory. From there I will flash this file to Microcontroller.

I am trying to use VISA for communicating with the device using LabVIEW.

I considered using VISA in my application, but could not since I have to change some of the data in my hex file.

 

My programmer did have a bunch of commands that I could use to automate the flashing process with RS-232. Does your manual describe anything similar to that?

Hi,

 

The FP5 supports communication commands using serial communication. The list of all commands are given in the usermanual. I have checked most of the commands using Hyper terminal.

I was trying to download files from my PC to FP5 memory. I am facing problem during the download of HEX file.

There are 3 files to be downloaded to the FP5

  • One parameter file (*.pr5) 
  • One settings file (*.esf)
  • One HEX file

The order of downloading is as shown above.

I am able to download *.pr5 & *.esf files, but the HEX file download is  showing ERROR.

The screenshot of the Operations that I have performed using Hyper terminal is attached to this post.

Have anyone encountered this problem before? Please suggest a solution...

Hi,

We can see on your image that you have not the good pr5 file loaded.

You can download it at Renesas.com adapted to your µC.

Further you need to tape instead of progarea 0 --> progarea clear 0
