Well, attaching .hex files does not really help, imho. If you need to attach code, use the .asm or the .lst file(s). If amForth does not display the ok prompt on the serial interface, then check the following: 1. you are aware, that you need to program _2_ files onto the controller template.hex and template.eep.hex without the .eep.hex file, nothing will work. It contains the start positions of the dictionary among other things. 2. is the frequency of the crystal correct in the temlate.asm? Look for the line .equ F_CPU = 8000000 3. is the baud rate in template.asm the same as with your terminal program? .equ BAUD = 9600 4. it the terminal program correctly set to 8 data bits No parity bit 1 stop bit NO hw flow control NO sw flow control If any of these are wrong, it won't work. 5. If none of the above get you closer, can you attach an LED (or scope) to the tx pin? If it does not blink a little just after reset, then your controller does not write anything to the pin and the problem is within your software setup.
