BL4S200 ERROR BOARDTYPES.LIB

Question

Hi Digi Team,

We're using a BL4S200 and today we're trying to compile and run a program (using F9 or Compile -> Compile to Target ->Store Program in Flash) and we got these error messages:

line 27 : ERROR BOARDTYPES.LIB : No ID Block found on the target board.
line 28 : ERROR BOARDTYPES.LIB : Please contact Rabbit Technical Support at http://www.digi.com/support for assistance.

line 1 : WARNING ERROR : This version of Dynamic C only supports up to system macro table version 0.
line 27 : ERROR BOARDTYPES.LIB : No ID Block found on the target board.
line 28 : ERROR BOARDTYPES.LIB : Please contact Rabbit Technical Support at http://www.digi.com/support for assistance.

Do you know what can cause these errors?

Best Regards,
Francisco

Answer 1

For some reason your BL4S200 has a missing or corrupted ID Block.
To rewrite the ID block, see this link Download Rabbit - Write ID Block 10.70 which is under General Documentation, Your text to link here... Unzip the file into the Dynamic C directory. Then go to the Utilities\Write_ID folder and open write_idblock_blxs2xx.c. Follow the instructions at the top of the file for the BL4S200.
