Hi

I bought a brand new DSO203: Hardware 2.82, SYS Ver 1.64, Serial No 792BD89A).

I tried to install Wildcat Version 5.1 => but uploading app1.hex via DFU results in app1.err.

So I uploaded FPGA_281.ADR, 281_FPGA.BIN and app1.hex (all Wildcat 5.1)=> uploading is perfectly done => but restarting dso hangs in splash screen showing “FGPA configuration error”

After that I tried these configurations without success:

WC5.1: <LINK_TEXT text=“http://www.seeedstudio.com/forum/downlo … hp?id=2339”>http://www.seeedstudio.com/forum/download/file.php?id=2339</LINK_TEXT>

WC4.4: Seeed Studio Forum - Seeed Forum … mp;start=400#p21988

Seeed Studio Wiki … mware#Firmware_List

WC 6.0

Do you have any hints to go back to the original firmware or to get a matching FPGA File to use WC?

Thanks a lot for help

I have no way of verifying operation on devices other than up to 2.81, neither can I find any info on HW 2.82

Some suggestions:

-Older versions of Windows (XP, 7) seem to be more reliable for upgrading. What is the DFU version ? (shows on screen when updating). Later versions of Windows are fussy as to which version the DFU is. Also it’s been reported that turning on the device before plugging in the USB is more reliable on later Win versions.

-A directory on your PC screen shows both app1 and FPGA being updated. I have always updated the APP and FPGA separately, shutting off the device and re-connecting the USB in between. It appears that you updated BOTH APP and FPGA at the same time. I don’t know if there is a problem in doing this, I have just never tried it. You may want to try just uploading the APP hex file, then disconnecting and then starting over again and upload the ADR file, wait for the volume to reappear then copying the FPGA BIN file.

-Use Wildcat version 6.0 rather than 5.0 or 5.1, there have been some issues with versions 5 when used on HW2.81.

Dear WILDCAT

I have DSO203 and I need functionality from it… Like FFT…

Would you please give me advise which firmware fit for it and step by step guide for FIRMWARE update?
