programming AVR microcontrollers with LabVIEW

[Professor Barney]

Hi Folks,

I'm currently trying to program an AVR microcontroller with LabVIEW 7.1 via
the JTAGICE mkII interface. I've got all of the ATMEL literature regarding
the interface, and can get the the device recognised in MAX when used on the
USB bus, but whether USB or RS232 I just cannot get a reply from the JTAG.

Has anyone got any suggestions / links that may help me along with this
project? I know a company sells a programmer with a LabVIEW interface, but
I'd rather not fork out the £700+ if I can avoid it.

All the best

Andy

Hi Andy,

I don't know what you need to do, but I think it might be an initializing problem. Make sure that you have them set as the manual says and that you are initializing the microcontroller properly. Usually it is that you are not wiring correctly or not initializing something the way it should.


I found this link on the internet. They might also be able to help you on this.
