Issue:
When I load the ADS1282EVM plug-in from EVM drop down menu then after series of messages I got the following messages, what is wrong?
"Download failed ... reset the hardware"
"The firmware has failed due to timeout condition please reset the hardware to continue loading the firmware."
Resolution:
The most common reason for this behavior is there is no external +/-10V supply connected to the board. In addition to the wall supply that ships with the EVM-PDK, the EVM requires a +/-10V supply be connected to the +/-VA pins on J14 of the MMB0 motherboard. Without this additional supply, the software driver will not load and the EVM won't respond to ADCPro.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Jumper J13A (MMB0 Rev D) must be removed and left open when applying a +10V supply.
