Not able to duplicate timed loop example?

Also monitor the error wire if you can during debug so we can see if anything is happening after that first read.

crashed...let me clean up a bit, make sure none of the build specs have changed and then restart everything to get a clean load.

Back in a few...or maybe even in the morning.

Thanks.

ran it again...it crashed...(will explain in detail tomorrow). 

Ran the example again looking for a way to monitor the error variable value with a probe...but need some help with how to do diagnostics...(just create an indicator and then rebuild?)

Thanks.

You need to enable debugging in the Application properties (in the Application Information category) and choose the appropriate debug method (in the Advanced Debugging Options category). I use my JTAG connector because you can see the block diagram in highlight execution just like you would for a VI on Windows. I use this type of debugging along with probes to see what the code is doing. 

If you don't have a JTAG or can't get the TCP or Serial debugging to work, then programmatic things like blinking an LED if there is an error can be helpful.

We have a JTag, but haven't used it yet...looks like it is time to break it out.

Thanks.

Will post again when we have done that.

Hummer1,

       Here is a great help file on setting up Blackfin application for debugging and your options (http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371653C-01/lvblackfinhelp/bf_debugging/). Check it out when setting up your application later.

The JTAG devise is attached but we are trying the RTC periodic example.  It fails when the ezToggleLED.dll is changed to the ToggleLED.vi...we get a KernelPanic.  I posted this on another thread...Thanks.
