ok, hooked up the driver and the burner, comupter recognizes it because i can do the erase chip function, but when i try to burn a .bin off the buffer, it gives me error messages... please help

 

you have to read it then check the buffer or something before you burn

 

Try burning a different bin file.. The file you are trying to burn maybe currupt.

 

ok tried that and still nothing... installed it on my pos desktop and it worked perfectly... wtf,.,, nice new laptop doesnt work but pos desktop works,... what gives??

 

Are u using com ports 1-4 on ur laptop? It will only work threw these ports.

 

yes used com port 2,3,and 4, also switched to 5 per craig moates, and still nothing,.. any ideas?

 

Did u go to the Device manager on your laptop and make your your com ports are properly installed and enabled?

Also did u download the USB files from the moates site?

 

yea to all above

 

Try selecting the right type of chip on the left.

Remember, you can only burn the SST's, Atmel, and the 4 meg.


Also, what is the error message?

>>><<<

 

also i noticed that with my moates burn1, i cant burn a .bin while its still open in a program like crome, uber, or hondata. u can either close the crome, uber, hondate, etc window and burn the program then reopen the crome, uber, etc program. OR u can save the .bin as something else and then program it, just make sure what ur loading into the burn1 and what program is currently open dont have the same name

also try a new chip

there is no other program open and i tried a few diff chips. it will erase chip, but when you blank check or anything else, it gives error message. ive tried all 4 usb ports ... everyuthing.... this sucks

 

Go to moates.com and get the firmware updater program. Compare the current firmware with what is in your BURN1.

still nothin

 

set latency and baud right? (1 and 7200 i believe)

 

yep got that covered ...

 

If you are still having trouble, contact Craig Moates. They have the best customer service that I have ever seen.

Using the same cable on both computers?

 

i spent 30 min on the fone with craig....nothing...

yes same cable on both comps... nothing

 

Might try a different cable.

I had a USB cable go bad once.
