Problems Uploading Firmware

Hi,
I'm having trouble uploading the firmware via the bootloader {TD Loader V1.06) to the TD 1208 board. It was working fine until I loaded the blink example onto the board and now I cant upload any other samples.
Any help that you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi,
Not totally sure, but the blink project does not inlcude a bootoloader, so if you want load a new FW you have to use the STK programmer instead.
Have a look at this issue:

Hi,
I managed to figure it out. While the bootloader is synchronizing, removed the FDTI cable at the board end and then plug it back in. This resets the chip and allows you to upload a program with the bootloader.
I'm not sure if this is the safest way to do it but it worked for me. (Please dont blame me if it destroys your board
)
