redbearlab / ccloader Goto Github PK

I'm writing that because it might be useful for someone.

On Windows 10 with an Arduino 2009 (clone), CC2531 powered via USB and jumper cables on bended pins (be careful I broke pin 1!). It didn't work at first (waiting for arduino response) but resetting the Arduino board after executing ccloader fixed that.

Hi, I try to use CCLoader.exe via cmd.
But I always fail to do that.

I use BLEduino(developed by elefreaks : http://www.elecfreaks.com/estore/bleduino-ble-for-arduino.html)
and Windows10

How do you load a fex file with this? what is a "bin" file?

Hi,
I tried to flash my new CC2531 dongle via a Wemos D1 Mini with this tutorial, I followed.

The wiring is correct and the flash process went through successfully without any issues.
But after flashing the dongle stopped working. The onboard LED is off and nothing happens when I stick it into my computer. It also won't show up in Windows' device manager or in 'lsusb' under Linux.

So I tried flashing the stick again and it flashed successfully as well...but still, the dongle doesn't work.

Any ideas how to fix this?

when i clicked to ccloader.exe ,some kind of window appears for less than a second and then suddenly disappears. Somehow i managed to take screenshot of that...pls tell me what is this error says.

thank you in advance:)

Ccloader can not work with the Arduino with 168p microcontrоller due lack of the RAM. This Patch resolve this issue. After uploading sketch to the Arduino there is need to disconnect DTR -> Reset (if it used).

I have connected arduino 5,6,4 and BLE 7,8,11 pin respectively and I have flashed the ccloader sketch to my arduino. But when I load the bin file ccloader.exe stuck at waiting for response from arduino.. Any help

I've been trying to flash it using Arduino Mega2560 board using both CCLoader_x86_64.exe version 0.5 and CCLoader.exe version 0.5.

But the only response i get is this:
Waiting for respond from Arduino...

No chip detected!
Upload Failed!
File closed!
Comport closed!

EDIT:
Maybe my connections pins are not the same.
I connected pins 4,5,6 from the PWM side of the board to 11,7,8 respectively on bluetooth module

Hi, I'm trying to flash 2 different BLE module(JDY-08 and MLT-BT05) as described in the arduino thread but CCLoader get stuck at the first block. I have tried both with Linux(never get past "waiting for arduino") and windows.
Both modules have become unusable after the procedure (they are in debug state(?)) so it must have done something.
I'm using an Arduino Pro Mini at 3.3v connected with an USB TTL converter to the PC.
Is there something I can do? Thanks

From the little that I have analyzed of the code, there is no exclusive nail of the Arduino UNO, therefore it seems perfectly possible to use an Arduino DUE, but before starting, I would like to have this answer on your part. What do you think? do you see something that implies that such a code is used directly on Arduino DUE or Zero? And even if you think it's complex to carry it?

The advantage of using DUE or Zero is the voltage compatibility.

Hello, stupid question, but i can't find any info about construction of command line command to start flashing.

I have got Leonardo with sketch uploaded, and CCloader.exe and HCI_UART_115200bps_20130429.bin

And i want to flash it. My Leonardo is on on COM12

Sorry for that question, but no idea where to put switch for com port and i do not want to damage the CC2540 IC by using flasher in a wrong way.

I do have CCdebuger also, with their flasher downloaded from TI website, but it cannot recognize the .bin files, because it works with .hex
When i use bin2hex to convert the files the TI software is saing that it cannot read that file, so i need help.

1. upload also .hex files in addition to .bin cince they are generated by IAR and you have them already
2. Add in readme info abut exact command people should use in order to use your flasher and arduino with sketch.

Thank yoy :)

Can I have communication with the HM11 through AT commands after flashing the firmware?

When I attempt to run ccloader.exe, malwarebytes identifies a backdoor and quarantines it. Is there a way to get the source for this or a new, clean build?

the com port is 57 on my computer and it doesn't work. => illegal port number. Strange

Hi there! I am trying to execute CCLoader.exe. I double click on it. Run option appears. I run it. Nothing happens. I also tried CCLoader_x86_64.exe and also tried to run both via Run as administrator. Still nothing.

Any idea what I should do?
Thank you!!

Hi there,

Somehow it is not working out for me. I double checked all connections. But it allways get's stuck when I run the program...
And I can't use it (the fake HM-10) as before

can someone help me i use this video

and then nothing happens anymore

kann mir jemand helfen ich benutze dieses video

und dann passiert nichts mehr

and then nothing happens anymore

If you still accept Pull requests, I might consider creating one, giving instructions on how to use the tool with Linux.

Hello All,

I was dump hex file using cc debugger but now my module is not accepting any AT command. Now I want install New firmware.I have followed the procedure but ccloader is not working

Is there another way to upgrade hm10

Thanks in advanced

Hi! Is it possible to get IEEE mac address from chip using CCLoader?

Thank you for posting the C source code for the Windows/Dos executable program. I have built it using the TDM-GCC compiler and successfully flashed my CC41 using it. If you'd like to host it here, I'm attaching
CCLoader_x86_64.zip

the executable for others to download.

I've been googling for ages! can't seem to find pin-info about this hm-11 board from ebay.

Any idea which is DD and DC on this?
(this one is broken - please disregard that)

Hi,

Write the CCLoader.ino with Arduino to ESP32

// Debug control pins & the indicate LED
int DD = 5;
int DC = 2;
int RESET = 1;
int LED = 13;

Create FW

objcopy --gap-fill 0xFF --pad-to 0x040000 -I ihex CC2530ZNP-with-SBL.hex -O binary CC2530ZNP-with-SBL.bin

try to flash

What did I wrong ?

Is it necessary to use a voltage divider in the connection to the arduino pins by the low voltage values in the module?

I have a small CC2541 based project to make. I don't really want to buy CCDebugger just because it will take a few weeks to arrive and I hope to finish the project in a few days. I'm using CCLoader for flashing and it works great. Kudos to you guys!

I'd like to avoid debugging via UART and use proper debugging tools in IAR Workshop. Is it possible to configure CCLoader as a debugging device? Do you have instructions how to do it?

Thanks in advance and thanks for this wonderful project!

Is CCloader runing properly on esp32?

Sketch uploads to esp32 jist fine.

But can here be any problem with this setup ?

Bin file uploaded successfully, but after restart led doesn't blink and module not respond to AT commands. Also reflash with and without resistors doesn't help

Is this project supports ESP8266 boards - instead of Arduino? I ask because the ESP is a 3.3V based board and hence no level converter is needed.

I tried your great tool with a WeMos D1 mini: compiled, uploaded but "Waiting for respond from Arduino..."
(Tried with UNO and Leonardo options too.)
