Hi, I have a LimeSDR v1.4s, I tried to run LimeTool --update
and it screwed up everything.
At the moment I’m able to flash anything I want on the FX3 chip (using LimeSuiteGUI) but nothing on the FPGA.
LimeSuiteGUI shows right after connecting to the SDR:
[17:59:19] WARNING: Gateware version mismatch!
Expected gateware version 2, revision 14
But found version 0, revision 0
Follow the FW and FPGA upgrade instructions:
http://wiki.myriadrf.org/Lime_Suite#Flashing_images
Or run update on the command line: LimeUtil --update
[17:59:19] ERROR: Command not supported
[17:59:19] INFO: Connected Control port: LimeSDR-USB FW:4 HW:4 Protocol:1 GW:0.0 Ref Clk: -0.00 MHz
If I try to use the programming tool (FPGA Flash / FPGA Reset) I just get ‘Programming Failed: Error’.
This is what happens if I try to do the same using LimeUtil:
$ LimeUtil --fpga=/home/al/Downloads/LimeSDR-USB_HW_1.4_r2.14.rbf
Connected to [LimeSDR-USB [USB 2.0] 9060B00490F2B]
Gateware version mismatch!
Expected gateware version 2, revision 14
But found version 0, revision 0
Follow the FW and FPGA upgrade instructions:
http://wiki.myriadrf.org/Lime_Suite#Flashing_images
Or run update on the command line: LimeUtil --update
Programming failed! Error
[ 0%] 32/574703 Bytes Programming failed! Error
Programming failed! : Programming failed! Error
Also, I tried to use any possible combination of:
- Different FX3 firmwares: {Latest from downloads.myriadrf.org, Latest from git, Random ones}
- LimeSuite version: {(Random) Old stable, Latest stable version, Latest version on git}
- USB Data Cable: {USB2,USB3}
- Power supply {USB3 internal, USB external, external 7.5/9 adapter, external 9v battery}
always with the exact same result.
Now I’m thinking about flashing it using an external JTAG interface, do you have any tutorial or suggestion about that?
Thank you!
