I had some problems uploading firmware on my main computer (it kept ending the firmware download before reaching 100 - I tried at night, in dark, etc...). I switched to a clean computer and it completed to 100%, but I had the same error when it finished downloading, along with several rapid beeps from the RCX brick. However it had the battery level on the LCD and it accepted leJOS code. I'm using Java SDK 1.4, USB tower with RCX 2.0 brick.

Subject: [Lejos-discussion] leJOS 3.0: unlock firmware error


I am having great touble getting version 3 of the firmware onto my RCX.
It seems to fail after the upload has finished, while "unlocking"

C:\lejos\bin>firmdl.bat
read firmware srec
 100%
Segment 0: length = 14578
Segment 1: length = 2940
Installing firmware
Loading native libs
Deleting firmware
Firmware deleted
Downloading firmware
Total image size = 17518 (18kB)
 100%
Firmware downloaded
Unlocking firmware
Unlock firmware failed: Tower error: no response from rcx.

I have tried downloading a programing onto the RCX just incase the firmware
write was successful, but it obviously was not:

C:\lejos\bin>lejosdl.bat ../check/DistributionSmokeTest.bin
read binary
 100%
download binary
Loading native libs
download program
Tower error: bad response from rcx
Please make sure RCX has leJOS firmware and is in range.
The firmware must be in program download mode.
Turn RCX off and on if necessary.

After trying to load the leJOS firmware, the RCX seems to be back to "boot
mode".
I can download the Official lego firmware onto the brick at any time without
problems, but lejos is proving a real problem.

Any Help would be much appreciated.
Ben
