My MOD5270 thinks it's a PK70

Hi,

I couldn't find this on the forums, and thought I would share this in case anyone else did the same thing.

I am developing an app for the PK70 but also wanted to do debug on a MOD5270 for the non PK70 specific parts. Mostly so I didn't have to lug the PK70 and setup home from the office.

I changed the target platform in the project NetBurner Options and it recompiled and I was able to download and run it. Somewhere along the line I must have used MTTY to upload the app to the MOD5270 with the platform still set to PK70.

The next time I went to use the autoupdate tool through eclipse it gave me an error message:

File Platform = [MOD5270]
Device Platform = [PK70]
They do not Match
Download aborted

It took a little while but I finally figured out that also under NetBurner Options there is a check box for "Reload selected platform's properties file". I haven't found it in the documentation any where, but it appears to set the target to respond appropriately to the ip set up tool and the auto update tool.

I had to check this option, re-build and use the fla command in the monitor to restore the proper platform ID.

Hope this saves someone else a little time!

Hello,

This bug affects 2.3 builds if you are developing on multiple platforms. The good news is that the bug is gone from our internal builds. The bad news is that this build is not released yet. When we release a new NNDK, this fix will be in place.
