Dear Rajesh, Sorry for your problem.
First some precisations: 1) Webots is using as well the bootloader in the e-puck when downloading a program. Just it start in a different way sending first a reset command. With tinybootloader on PC side, it need the robot to be reset when starting the communication. To get the perfect timing might be difficult if the program on e-puck is sending a lot of messages from the beginning on. The solution is to push the reset button several times quite fast (~1 interval). 2) the file you choose to be used as bootloader is the correct one, but is supposed to be downloaded with ICD2. Not sure what is your current memory status. I see no other solution to borrow an ICD2 or send it back to your dealer. Good luck, Gilles ------------------------ Dr. Gilles Caprari GCtronic, Electronics & Mechatronics web: www.gctronic.com <http://www.gctronic.com/> E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Post: Via Lavizzari 15, CH-6850 Mendrisio, Switzerland Tel: +41 91 630 2149 Fax: +41 86 078 601 11 13 Mobile: +41 78 601 1113 skype: gillescaprari -----Original Message----- From: Rajesh kumar Medampudi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 9.

I have recently started working on the e-puck. At the start I could not download the program by using the tiny bootloader, so i used the webots software to download my hex file to my e-puck. But determined to make my tiny bootloader work, i kind of downloaded a wrong hex file that i could get in one of the library folder. file name "tinybld_ds6014A_7.37Mhz_115200uart1_8xPLL_with_LEDs.hex" through the webots software. The software took a lot of time to download it and then suddenly it got stuck, so i had to reload the webots software, but from there on i am not able to load any hex file through the webots or the tiny bootloader programs into my e-puck. The saddest part is that i donot even have a microchip ICD2 debugger inorder to reprogram the IC. After a lot of searching the net i got this site and could find a similar problem but the solution did not work in my case. Can any one help me out with this?? Thanking you Rajesh.
