Hello friends!
I am working on some project related to 89c51rd2. My problem is that I want to download the hex file on same microcontroller but my system is LINUX based. Could you help me out regarding the same problem i.e. How to download the HEX file from LINUX platform machine?
Thanks in advance.
with regards
Kirti
You might want to try running Flash Magic under Wine. Some people have reported success with it. There is no technical support available however.
You can obtain wine from gnu.org and build/install on your linux platform.
or you can write an application that talks through one of the COM ports
to send and receive data using the isp interface built into the 89c51rd2.
give me logiciel .
Hello Andrew & Rons,
Thank you very much for given solution. But basically I don't know very much about Wine. Please could you elaborate more on it.
Kirti
Kirti,
Wine was written to allow MS windows programs to execute on a
computer that runs the Linux operating system. It basically remaps
system calls. But it is quite a lot of code. It is not perfect, but it appears
to allow FlashMagic to run on linux. You just type "wine FlashMagic.exe"
The one issue I have is that when I try to display flash memory, the
pop-up window does not display the memory contents. It just stays
blank. So I felt the need to write my own GUI based program to talk
to the Philips microcontrollers using Linux. It does everything I need.
I was able to customize so features that I found lacking in FlashMagic,
no offense to our FlashMagic guys out there.
I suggest that you obtain Wine and build/install it before writing your
own program.

Hi
have a look to www.c-pec.net before you start writing your own linux solution
Bye Wolfgang
Hi,
Would have liked to try it but cpec does not completely build:
"struct KProgress" undefined.
Sorry, but discussion of cpec is off topic for this forum. If you like you can swap Email addresses to discuss it further. Thanks!
Thanks Andrew for immediate reply. I will try that wine option. But before that i have some more problems. As I am novice to this in-system programming concept. Is this 89C51rd2 works properly? becaz there are so many queries on forum regarding same. One important thing is that i am not getting the proper debugger for 89c51rd2 microcontroller on Linux platform. So could you suggets some solution for this as early as possible. Becaz my whole project struct at the same problem. So please please help me. Waiting for reply.

The Rd2 works just beautifully IF YOU FOLLOW THE RULES. If youn read closer
, you will see that the queastions are "Why will the RD23 not work without a supervisor", "why will the RD2 not work when I do not pull pin x high" etc.
Anyhoe, if you include NoTouch and "the backdoor" you can break all the rules (except for the first load) and still run.

If you are having problems using your RD2 with Linux, then I suggest you try it with Flash Magic on a PC and get back to me with any remaining problems. We cannot support Linux environments at this time.
