"SWIM error 0x05" when flashing "main.ihx" while read&write of original software working #42

Hi all, beautiful things you're doing here!

I followed the OS X and Linux installation guide and got a problem on step 9 while flashing the new software. I tried different commands:

make -f Makefile_windows flash and stm8flash -c stlinkv2 -p "stm8s105?6" -w main.ihx both of them fail with:

Due to its file extension (or lack thereof), "main.ihx" is considered as INTEL HEX format!
28634 bytes at 0x8000... SWIM error 0x05

Step 8, where I had read and written the original TSDZ2 software, went well without any errors. I also was able to re-do read&write of the original software after the above-mentioned error occurrence.

This is a pretty strange error for me, could anybody shine some light on what could possibly be the reason for such behavior?

I don't know. I am just gonna say, I was having random errors when the cable was longer than 10cm. Currently I shortened it to 8cm including the plug.

You can also try out my branch https://github.com/emmebrusa/TSDZ2-Smart-EBike-1/pull/33 Someone reported it works fine on Mac

Hey @dzid26,

Thanks a lot for that link you shared, I found precisely my error code there in the troubleshooting section. The guide suggests connecting SWIM_RST to the bottom center pin

I'll try to do it and report back.
